Package trace contains support for OpenCensus distributed tracing.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The following assumes a basic familiarity with OpenCensus concepts.
|
||
|
|
See http://opencensus.io
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Exporting Traces
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To export collected tracing data, register at least one exporter. You can use
|
||
|
|
one of the provided exporters or write your own.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
trace.RegisterExporter(exporter)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
By default, traces will be sampled relatively rarely. To change the sampling
|
||
|
|
frequency for your entire program, call ApplyConfig. Use a ProbabilitySampler
|
||
|
|
to sample a subset of traces, or use AlwaysSample to collect a trace on every run:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
trace.ApplyConfig(trace.Config{DefaultSampler: trace.AlwaysSample()})
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Be careful about using trace.AlwaysSample in a production application with
|
||
|
|
significant traffic: a new trace will be started and exported for every request.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Adding Spans to a Trace
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A trace consists of a tree of spans. In Go, the current span is carried in a
|
||
|
|
context.Context.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It is common to want to capture all the activity of a function call in a span. For
|
||
|
|
this to work, the function must take a context.Context as a parameter. Add these two
|
||
|
|
lines to the top of the function:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ctx, span := trace.StartSpan(ctx, "example.com/Run")
|
||
|
|
defer span.End()
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
StartSpan will create a new top-level span if the context
|
||
|
|
doesn't contain another span, otherwise it will create a child span.
