Use Performance API to get response status and sample accordingly #223

Open phornig opened 14 hours ago

phornig commented 14 hours ago

In cloud service depending on configuration we may not know the actual response status when injecting the RUM script, thus cannot determine if the 404 or standalone script should be included. This PR adds client-side code to determine the response status using the Performance API and trigger the 404 sampling when needed, effectively combining the 404 and standalone script into one.

The response code is read from the PerformanceNavigationTiming object. The responseStatus is supported by modern browsers except for Safari. As a fallback the ServerTiming object is inspected for a status property which is read from a server-timing header which needs to be injected by the server, e.g. in the CDN. This is also supported by Safari.
