API Documentation

Godoc: https://godoc.org/github.com/lightstep/lightstep-tracer-go

Initialization: Starting a new tracer

To initialize a tracer, configure it with a valid Access Token and optional tuning parameters. Register the tracer as the OpenTracing global tracer so that it will become available to your installed instrumentation libraries.

import (
  "github.com/opentracing/opentracing-go"
  "github.com/lightstep/lightstep-tracer-go"
)

func main() {
  lightstepTracer := lightstep.NewTracer(lightstep.Options{
    AccessToken: "YourAccessToken",
  })

  opentracing.SetGlobalTracer(lightstepTracer)
}

Instrumenting Code: Using the OpenTracing API

All instrumentation should be done through the OpenTracing API, rather than using the lightstep tracer type directly. For API documentation and advice on instrumentation in general, see the opentracing godocs and the opentracing website.

Flushing and Closing: Managing the tracer lifecycle

As part of managing your application lifecycle, the lightstep tracer extends the opentracing.Tracer interface with methods for manual flushing and closing. To access these methods, you can take the global tracer and typecast it to a lightstep.Tracer. As a convenience, the lightstep package provides static methods which perform the typecasting.

import (
  "context"
  "github.com/opentracing/opentracing-go"
  "github.com/lightstep/lightstep-tracer-go"
)

func shutdown(ctx context.Context) {
  // access the running tracer
  tracer := opentracing.GlobalTracer()
    
  // typecast from opentracing.Tracer to lightstep.Tracer
  lsTracer, ok := tracer.(lightstep.Tracer)
  if (!ok) { 
    return 
  }
  lsTracer.Close(ctx)

  // or use static methods
  lightstep.Close(ctx, tracer)
}

Event Handling: Observing the LightStep tracer

In order to connect diagnostic information from the lightstep tracer into an application's logging and metrics systems, inject an event handler using the SetGlobalEventHandler static method. Events may be typecast to check for errors or specific events such as status reports.

import (
  "example/logger"
  "example/metrics"
  "github.com/lightstep/lightstep-tracer-go"
)

logAndMetricsHandler := func(event lightstep.Event){
  switch event := event.(type) {
  case EventStatusReport:
    metrics.Count("tracer.dropped_spans", event.DroppedSpans())
  case MetricEventStatusReport:
    metrics.Count("tracer.sent_metrics", event.SentMetrics())
  case ErrorEvent:
    logger.Error("LS Tracer error: %s", event)
  default:
    logger.Info("LS Tracer info: %s", event)
  }
}

func main() {
  // setup event handler first to catch startup errors
  lightstep.SetGlobalEventHandler(logAndMetricsHandler)
  
  lightstepTracer := lightstep.NewTracer(lightstep.Options{
    AccessToken: "YourAccessToken",
  })

  opentracing.SetGlobalTracer(lightstepTracer)
}

Event handlers will receive events from any active tracers, as well as errors in static functions. It is suggested that you set up event handling before initializing your tracer to catch any errors on initialization.

Advanced Configuration: Transport and Serialization Protocols

By following the above configuration, the tracer will send information to LightStep using HTTP and Protocol Buffers which is the recommended configuration. If there are no specific transport protocol needs you have, there is no need to change this default.

There are two options for transport protocols:

  • Protocol Buffers over HTTP - The recommended and default solution.
  • Protocol Buffers over GRPC - This is a more advanced solution that might be desirable if you already have gRPC networking configured.

You can configure which transport protocol the tracer uses using the UseGRPC and UseHttp flags in the options.

Functions

func Close added in v0.15.0 

func Close(ctx context.Context, tracer opentracing.Tracer)

Close synchronously flushes the tracer, then terminates it.

func CloseTracer added in v0.12.0 

func CloseTracer(tracer opentracing.Tracer) error

CloseTracer closes the tracer DEPRECATED: use Close instead.

func Flush added in v0.15.0 

func Flush(ctx context.Context, tracer opentracing.Tracer)

Flush forces a synchronous Flush.

func FlushLightStepTracer 

func FlushLightStepTracer(tracer opentracing.Tracer) error

func GetLightStepReporterID added in v0.15.2

func SetGlobalEventHandler added in v0.15.0 

func SetGlobalEventHandler(handler EventHandler)

SetGlobalEventHandler sets a global handler to receive tracer events as they occur. Events may be emitted by the tracer, or by calls to static functions in this package. It is suggested that you set your EventHandler before starting your tracer, but it is safe to set a new handler at any time. Setting a new handler removes the previous one.

The EventHandler is called synchronously – do not block in your handler as it may interfere with the tracer. If no EventHandler handler is set, a LogOnceOnError handler is set by default.

NOTE: Event handling is for reporting purposes only. It is not intended as a mechanism for controling or restarting the tracer. Connection issues, retry logic, and other transient errors are handled internally by the tracer.
