Trace

Veneur provides an experimental API for tracing requests between hosts. The API is in an experimental state and is subject to change.

The main Veneur tracing API is defined in the trace.go file; however, an OpenTracing compatibility layer is provided for convenience as well. These are functionally equivalent, though it is recommended not to mix the functions. (In other words, if a trace is started using Veneur's tracing API, avoid using the OpenTracing API functions on it or future children).

Eventually, these two interfaces will be consolidated.

Documentation

Overview

Package trace provies an experimental API for initiating traces. Veneur's tracing API also provides an opentracing compatibility layer. The Veneur tracing API is completely independent of the opentracing compatibility layer, with the exception of one convenience function.

Constants

View Source 
const BufferSize int = int(protocol.MaxSSFPacketLength + protocol.SSFFrameLength)

BufferSize is the default size of the SSF buffer. It defaults to enough bytes to accomodate the largest SSF span.

View Source 
const DefaultBackoff = 20 * time.Millisecond

DefaultBackoff defaults to 10 milliseconds of initial wait time. Subsequent wait times will add this backoff to the time they wait.

View Source 
const DefaultCapacity = 64

DefaultCapacity is the capacity of the span submission queue in a veneur client.

View Source 
const DefaultConnectTimeout = 10 * time.Second

DefaultConnectTimeout is to 10 seconts. Any attempt to (re)connect to a veneur will take longer than this. If it would take longer, the span is discarded.

View Source 
const DefaultMaxBackoff = 1 * time.Second

DefaultMaxBackoff defaults to 1 second. No reconnection attempt wait interval will be longer than this.

View Source 
const DefaultVeneurAddress string = "udp://127.0.0.1:8128"

DefaultVeneurAddress is the address that a reasonable veneur should listen on. Currently it defaults to UDP port 8128.

const ResourceKey = "resource"

Experimental

Variables

View Source 
var ErrClientNotNetworked = fmt.Errorf("client is not using a network backend")

ErrClientNotNetworked indicates that the client being constructed does not support options relevant only to networked clients.

View Source 
var ErrNoClient = errors.New("client is not initialized")

ErrNoClient indicates that no client is yet initialized.

View Source 
var ErrUnsupportedSpanContext = errors.New("Unsupported SpanContext")
View Source 
var ErrWouldBlock = errors.New("sending span would block")

ErrWouldBlock indicates that a client is not able to send a span at the current time.

View Source 
var GlobalTracer = Tracer{}

GlobalTracer is the… global tracer!

var HeaderFormats = []HeaderGroup{

	HeaderGroup{
		TraceID: "x-request-id",
		SpanID:  "x-client-trace-id",
	},

	HeaderGroup{
		TraceID: "Trace-Id",
		SpanID:  "Span-Id",
	},

	HeaderGroup{

		SpanID:  "X-Span-Id",
	},

	HeaderGroup{
		TraceID: "Traceid",
		SpanID:  "Spanid",
	},
}

Veneur supports multiple tracing header formats. We try each set of headers until we find one that exists. Note: textMapReaderGet is case insensitive, so the capitalization of these headers is not important.

var Service = ""

Service is our service name and should be set exactly once, at startup

Functions

func Buffered added in v1.7.0 

func Buffered(cl *Client) error

Buffered sets the client to be buffered with the default buffer size (enough to accomodate a single, maximum-sized SSF frame, currently about 16MB).

When using buffered clients, since buffers tend to be large and SSF packets are fairly small, it might appear as if buffered clients are not sending any spans at all.

Code using a buffered client should ensure that the client gets flushed in a reasonable interval, either by calling Flush manually in an appropriate goroutine, or by also using the FlushInterval functional option.

func Disable added in v1.2.0 

func Disable()

(Experimental) Disabled sets tracing to disabled.

func Disabled 

func Disabled() bool

func Enable added in v1.2.0 

func Enable()

(Experimental) Enabled sets tracing to enabled.

func Flush added in v1.7.0 

func Flush(cl *Client) error

Flush instructs a client to flush to the upstream veneur all the spans that were serialized up until the moment that the flush was received. It will wait until the flush is completed (including all reconnection attempts), and return any error caused by flushing the buffer.

Flush returns ErrNoClient if client is nil and ErrWouldBlock if the client is not able to take more requests.

func FlushAsync added in v1.7.0 

func FlushAsync(cl *Client, ch chan<- error) error

FlushAsync instructs a buffered client to flush to the upstream veneur all the spans that were serialized up until the moment that the flush was received. Once the client has completed the flush, any error (or nil) is sent down the error channel.

FlushAsync returns ErrNoClient if client is nil and ErrWouldBlock if the client is not able to take more requests.

func Record added in v1.7.0 

func Record(cl *Client, span *ssf.SSFSpan, done chan<- error) error

Record instructs the client to serialize and send a span. It does not wait for a delivery attempt, instead the Client will send the result from serializing and submitting the span to the channel done, if it is non-nil.

Record returns ErrNoClient if client is nil and ErrWouldBlock if the client is not able to accomodate another span.

Types

type Client added in v1.7.0 

type Client struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Client is a Client that sends traces to Veneur over the network. It represents a pump for span packets from user code to the network (whether it be UDP or streaming sockets, with or without buffers).

Structure

A Client is composed of two parts (each with its own purpose): A serialization part providing backpressure (the front end) and a backend (which is called on a single goroutine). 

var DefaultClient *Client

DefaultClient is the client that trace recording happens on by default. If it is nil, no recording happens and ErrNoClient is returned from recording functions.

Note that it is not safe to set this variable concurrently with other goroutines that use the DefaultClient.

func NewBackendClient added in v1.8.0 

func NewBackendClient(b ClientBackend, opts ...ClientParam) (*Client, error)

NewBackendClient constructs and returns a Client sending to the ClientBackend passed. Most user code should use NewClient, as NewBackendClient is primarily useful for processing spans internally (e.g. in veneur itself or in test code), without making trips over the network.

func NewClient added in v1.7.0 

func NewClient(addrStr string, opts ...ClientParam) (*Client, error)

NewClient constructs a new client that will attempt to connect to addrStr (an address in veneur URL format) using the parameters in opts. It returns the constructed client or an error.

func (*Client) Close added in v1.7.0 

func (c *Client) Close() error

Close tears down the entire client. It waits until the backend has closed the network connection (if one was established) and returns any error from closing the connection.

type ClientBackend added in v1.8.0 

type ClientBackend interface {
	io.Closer

	// SendSync synchronously sends a span to an upstream
	// veneur.
	//
	// On a networked connection, if it encounters a protocol
	// error in sending, it must loop forever, backing off by
	// n*the backoff interval (until it reaches the maximal
	// backoff interval) and tries to reconnect. If SendSync
	// encounters any non-protocol errors (e.g. in serializing the
	// SSF span), it must return them without reconnecting.
	SendSync(ctx context.Context, span *ssf.SSFSpan) error

	// FlushSync causes all (potentially) buffered data to be sent to
	// the upstream veneur.
	FlushSync(ctx context.Context) error
}

ClientBackend represents the ability of a client to transport SSF spans to a veneur server.

type ClientParam added in v1.7.0 

type ClientParam func(*Client) error

ClientParam is an option for NewClient. Its implementation borrows from Dave Cheney's functional options API (https://dave.cheney.net/2014/10/17/functional-options-for-friendly-apis).

Unless otherwise noted, ClientParams only apply to networked backends (i.e., those used by NewClient). Using them on non-network-backed clients will return ErrClientNotNetworked on client creation.

func BackoffTime added in v1.7.0 

func BackoffTime(t time.Duration) ClientParam

BackoffTime sets the time increment that backoff time is increased (linearly) between every reconnection attempt the backend makes. If this option is not used, the backend uses DefaultBackoff.

func BufferedSize added in v1.7.0 

func BufferedSize(size uint) ClientParam

BufferedSize indicates that a client should have a buffer size bytes large. See the note on the Buffered option about flushing the buffer.

func Capacity added in v1.7.0 

func Capacity(n uint) ClientParam

Capacity indicates how many spans a client's channel should accommodate. This parameter can be used on both generic and networked backends.

func ConnectTimeout added in v1.7.0 

func ConnectTimeout(t time.Duration) ClientParam

ConnectTimeout sets the maximum total amount of time a client backend spends trying to establish a connection to a veneur. If a connection can not be established after this timeout has expired (counting from the time the connection is first attempted), the span is discarded. If this option is not used, the backend uses DefaultConnectTimeout.

func FlushChannel 

func FlushChannel(ch <-chan time.Time, stop func()) ClientParam

FlushChannel sets up a buffered client to perform one synchronous flush any time the given channel has a Time element ready. When the Client is closed, FlushWith invokes the passed stop function.

This functional option is mostly useful for tests; code intended to be used in production should rely on FlushInterval instead, as time.Ticker is set up to deal with slow flushes.

func FlushInterval 

func FlushInterval(interval time.Duration) ClientParam

FlushInterval sets up a buffered client to perform one synchronous flush per time interval in a new goroutine. The goroutine closes down when the Client's Close method is called.

This uses a time.Ticker to trigger the flush, so will not trigger multiple times if flushing should be slower than the trigger interval.

func MaxBackoffTime added in v1.7.0 

func MaxBackoffTime(t time.Duration) ClientParam

MaxBackoffTime sets the maximum time duration waited between reconnection attempts. If this option is not used, the backend uses DefaultMaxBackoff.

type ErrContractViolation 

type ErrContractViolation struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

func (ErrContractViolation) Error 

func (e ErrContractViolation) Error() string

type HeaderGroup added in v1.8.0

	TraceID string
	SpanID  string
