# Jaeger Bindings for Go OpenTracing API
|
||
|
|
||
|
Instrumentation library that implements an
|
||
|
[OpenTracing](http://opentracing.io) Tracer for Jaeger (https://jaegertracing.io).
|
||
|
|
||
|
**IMPORTANT**: The library's import path is based on its original location under `github.com/uber`. Do not try to import it as `github.com/jaegertracing`, it will not compile. We might revisit this in the next major release.
|
||
|
* :white_check_mark: `import "github.com/uber/jaeger-client-go"`
|
||
|
* :x: `import "github.com/jaegertracing/jaeger-client-go"`

## How to Contribute
|
||
|
|
||
|
Please see [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md).
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Installation
|
||
|
|
||
|
We recommended using a dependency manager like [glide](https://github.com/Masterminds/glide)
|
||
|
and [semantic versioning](http://semver.org/) when including this library into an application.
|
||
|
For example, Jaeger backend imports this library like this:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```yaml
|
||
|
- package: github.com/uber/jaeger-client-go
|
||
|
version: ^2.7.0
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
If you instead want to use the latest version in `master`, you can pull it via `go get`.
|
||
|
Note that during `go get` you may see build errors due to incompatible dependencies, which is why
|
||
|
we recommend using semantic versions for dependencies. The error may be fixed by running
|
||
|
`make install` (it will install `glide` if you don't have it):
|
||
|
|
||
|
```shell
|
||
|
go get -u github.com/uber/jaeger-client-go/
|
||
|
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/uber/jaeger-client-go/
|
||
|
git submodule update --init --recursive
|
||
|
make install
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Initialization
|
||
|
|
||
|
See tracer initialization examples in [godoc](https://godoc.org/github.com/uber/jaeger-client-go/config#pkg-examples)
|
||
|
and [config/example_test.go](./config/example_test.go).
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Environment variables
|
||
|
|
||
|
The tracer can be initialized with values coming from environment variables. None of the env vars are required
|
||
|
and all of them can be overriden via direct setting of the property on the configuration object.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Property| Description
|
||
|
--- | ---
|
||
|
JAEGER_SERVICE_NAME | The service name
|
||
|
JAEGER_AGENT_HOST | The hostname for communicating with agent via UDP
|
||
|
JAEGER_AGENT_PORT | The port for communicating with agent via UDP
|
||
|
JAEGER_REPORTER_LOG_SPANS | Whether the reporter should also log the spans
|
||
|
JAEGER_REPORTER_MAX_QUEUE_SIZE | The reporter's maximum queue size
|
||
|
JAEGER_REPORTER_FLUSH_INTERVAL | The reporter's flush interval (ms)
|
||
|
JAEGER_SAMPLER_TYPE | The sampler type
|
||
|
JAEGER_SAMPLER_PARAM | The sampler parameter (number)
|
||
|
JAEGER_SAMPLER_MANAGER_HOST_PORT | The host name and port when using the remote controlled sampler
|
||
|
JAEGER_SAMPLER_MAX_OPERATIONS | The maximum number of operations that the sampler will keep track of
|
||
|
JAEGER_SAMPLER_REFRESH_INTERVAL | How often the remotely controlled sampler will poll jaeger-agent for the appropriate sampling strategy
|
||
|
JAEGER_TAGS | A comma separated list of `name = value` tracer level tags, which get added to all reported spans. The value can also refer to an environment variable using the format `${envVarName:default}`, where the `:default` is optional, and identifies a value to be used if the environment variable cannot be found
|
||
|
JAEGER_DISABLED | Whether the tracer is disabled or not. If true, the default `opentracing.NoopTracer` is used.
|
||
|
JAEGER_RPC_METRICS | Whether to store RPC metrics
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Closing the tracer via `io.Closer`
|
||
|
|
||
|
The constructor function for Jaeger Tracer returns the tracer itself and an `io.Closer` instance.
|
||
|
It is recommended to structure your `main()` so that it calls the `Close()` function on the closer
|
||
|
before exiting, e.g.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```go
|
||
|
tracer, closer, err := cfg.NewTracer(...)
|
||
|
defer closer.Close()
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
This is especially useful for command-line tools that enable tracing, as well as
|
||
|
for the long-running apps that support graceful shutdown. For example, if your deployment
|
||
|
system sends SIGTERM instead of killing the process and you trap that signal to do a graceful
|
||
|
exit, then having `defer closer.Closer()` ensures that all buffered spans are flushed.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Metrics & Monitoring
|
||
|
|
||
|
The tracer emits a number of different metrics, defined in
|
||
|
[metrics.go](metrics.go). The monitoring backend is expected to support
|
||
|
tag-based metric names, e.g. instead of `statsd`-style string names
|
||
|
like `counters.my-service.jaeger.spans.started.sampled`, the metrics
|
||
|
are defined by a short name and a collection of key/value tags, for
|
||
|
example: `name:jaeger.traces, state:started, sampled:y`. See [metrics.go](./metrics.go)
|
||
|
file for the full list and descriptions of emitted metrics.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The monitoring backend is represented by the `metrics.Factory` interface from package
|
||
|
[`"github.com/uber/jaeger-lib/metrics"`](https://github.com/jaegertracing/jaeger-lib/tree/master/metrics). An implementation
|
||
|
of that interface can be passed as an option to either the Configuration object or the Tracer
|
||
|
constructor, for example:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```go
|
||
|
import (
|
||
|
"github.com/uber/jaeger-client-go/config"
|
||
|
"github.com/uber/jaeger-lib/metrics/prometheus"
|
||
|
)
|
||
|
|
||
|
metricsFactory := prometheus.New()
|
||
|
tracer, closer, err := config.Configuration{
|
||
|
ServiceName: "your-service-name",
|
||
|
}.NewTracer(
|
||
|
config.Metrics(metricsFactory),
|
||
|
)
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
By default, a no-op `metrics.NullFactory` is used.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Logging
|
||
|
|
||
|
The tracer can be configured with an optional logger, which will be
|
||
|
used to log communication errors, or log spans if a logging reporter
|
||
|
option is specified in the configuration. The logging API is abstracted
|
||
|
by the [Logger](logger.go) interface. A logger instance implementing
|
||
|
this interface can be set on the `Config` object before calling the
|
||
|
`New` method.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Besides the [zap](https://github.com/uber-go/zap) implementation
|
||
|
bundled with this package there is also a [go-kit](https://github.com/go-kit/kit)
|
||
|
one in the [jaeger-lib](https://github.com/jaegertracing/jaeger-lib) repository.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Instrumentation for Tracing
|
||
|
|
||
|
Since this tracer is fully compliant with OpenTracing API 1.0,
|
||
|
all code instrumentation should only use the API itself, as described
|
||
|
in the [opentracing-go](https://github.com/opentracing/opentracing-go) documentation.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Features
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Reporters
|
||
|
|
||
|
A "reporter" is a component that receives the finished spans and reports
|
||
|
them to somewhere. Under normal circumstances, the Tracer
|
||
|
should use the default `RemoteReporter`, which sends the spans out of
|
||
|
process via configurable "transport". For testing purposes, one can
|
||
|
use an `InMemoryReporter` that accumulates spans in a buffer and
|
||
|
allows to retrieve them for later verification. Also available are
|
||
|
`NullReporter`, a no-op reporter that does nothing, a `LoggingReporter`
|
||
|
which logs all finished spans using their `String()` method, and a
|
||
|
`CompositeReporter` that can be used to combine more than one reporter
|
||
|
into one, e.g. to attach a logging reporter to the main remote reporter.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Span Reporting Transports
|
||
|
|
||
|
The remote reporter uses "transports" to actually send the spans out
|
||
|
of process. Currently the supported transports include:
|
||
|
* [Jaeger Thrift](https://github.com/jaegertracing/jaeger-idl/blob/master/thrift/agent.thrift) over UDP or HTTP,
|
||
|
* [Zipkin Thrift](https://github.com/jaegertracing/jaeger-idl/blob/master/thrift/zipkincore.thrift) over HTTP.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Sampling
|
||
|
|
||
|
The tracer does not record all spans, but only those that have the
|
||
|
sampling bit set in the `flags`. When a new trace is started and a new
|
||
|
unique ID is generated, a sampling decision is made whether this trace
|
||
|
should be sampled. The sampling decision is propagated to all downstream
|
||
|
calls via the `flags` field of the trace context. The following samplers
|
||
|
are available:
|
||
|
1. `RemotelyControlledSampler` uses one of the other simpler samplers
|
||
|
and periodically updates it by polling an external server. This
|
||
|
allows dynamic control of the sampling strategies.
|
||
|
1. `ConstSampler` always makes the same sampling decision for all
|
||
|
trace IDs. it can be configured to either sample all traces, or
|
||
|
to sample none.
|
||
|
1. `ProbabilisticSampler` uses a fixed sampling rate as a probability
|
||
|
for a given trace to be sampled. The actual decision is made by
|
||
|
comparing the trace ID with a random number multiplied by the
|
||
|
sampling rate.
|
||
|
1. `RateLimitingSampler` can be used to allow only a certain fixed
|
||
|
number of traces to be sampled per second.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Baggage Injection
|
||
|
|
||
|
The OpenTracing spec allows for [baggage][baggage], which are key value pairs that are added
|
||
|
to the span context and propagated throughout the trace. An external process can inject baggage
|
||
|
by setting the special HTTP Header `jaeger-baggage` on a request:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```sh
|
||
|
curl -H "jaeger-baggage: key1=value1, key2=value2" http://myhost.com
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Baggage can also be programatically set inside your service:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```go
|
||
|
if span := opentracing.SpanFromContext(ctx); span != nil {
|
||
|
span.SetBaggageItem("key", "value")
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Another service downstream of that can retrieve the baggage in a similar way:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```go
|
||
|
if span := opentracing.SpanFromContext(ctx); span != nil {
|
||
|
val := span.BaggageItem("key")
|
||
|
println(val)
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Debug Traces (Forced Sampling)
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### Programmatically
|
||
|
|
||
|
The OpenTracing API defines a `sampling.priority` standard tag that
|
||
|
can be used to affect the sampling of a span and its children:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```go
|
||
|
import (
|
||
|
"github.com/opentracing/opentracing-go"
|
||
|
"github.com/opentracing/opentracing-go/ext"
|
||
|
)
|
||
|
|
||
|
span := opentracing.SpanFromContext(ctx)
|
||
|
ext.SamplingPriority.Set(span, 1)
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### Via HTTP Headers
|
||
|
|
||
|
Jaeger Tracer also understands a special HTTP Header `jaeger-debug-id`,
|
||
|
which can be set in the incoming request, e.g.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```sh
|
||
|
curl -H "jaeger-debug-id: some-correlation-id" http://myhost.com
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
When Jaeger sees this header in the request that otherwise has no
|
||
|
tracing context, it ensures that the new trace started for this
|
||
|
request will be sampled in the "debug" mode (meaning it should survive
|
||
|
all downsampling that might happen in the collection pipeline), and the
|
||
|
root span will have a tag as if this statement was executed:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```go
|
||
|
span.SetTag("jaeger-debug-id", "some-correlation-id")
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
This allows using Jaeger UI to find the trace by this tag.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Zipkin HTTP B3 compatible header propagation
|
||
|
|
||
|
Jaeger Tracer supports Zipkin B3 Propagation HTTP headers, which are used
|
||
|
by a lot of Zipkin tracers. This means that you can use Jaeger in conjunction with e.g. [these OpenZipkin tracers](https://github.com/openzipkin).
|
||
|
|
||
|
However it is not the default propagation format, see [here](zipkin/README.md#NewZipkinB3HTTPHeaderPropagator) how to set it up.
