Beego Server Instrumentation Example

An HTTP client connects to a Beego server. They both generate span information to stdout. These instructions expect you have docker-compose installed.

Bring up the beego-server and http-client services to run the example:

docker-compose up -d

The http-client service sends just one HTTP request to beego-server and then exits. View the span generated by beego-server in the logs:

docker-compose logs beego-server

You can also visit a webpage hosted by the Beego app by navigating to http://localhost:7777 in your browser. Two spans are created this time, one for the HTTP request, and another for rendering the template HTML. You can view the spans the same way as above.

Shut down the services when you are finished with the example:

docker-compose down
