| ## Documentation | ||||
|  | ||||
| Each non-example Go Module should have its own `README.md` containing: | ||||
|  | ||||
| - A pkg.go.dev badge which can be generated [here](https://pkg.go.dev/badge/). | ||||
| - Brief description. | ||||
| - Installation instructions (and requirements if applicable). | ||||
| - Hyperlink to an example. Depending on the component the example can be: | ||||
|   - An `example_test.go` like [here](exporters/stdout/stdouttrace/example_test.go). | ||||
|   - A sample Go application with its own `README.md`, like [here](example/zipkin). | ||||
| - Additional documentation sections such us: | ||||
|   - Configuration, | ||||
|   - Contributing, | ||||
|   - References. | ||||
|  | ||||
| [Here](exporters/jaeger/README.md) is an example of a concise `README.md`. | ||||
|  | ||||
| Moreover, it should be possible to navigate to any `README.md` from the | ||||

|  | ||||
| ## Maintenance | ||||
| ## Example | ||||
|  | ||||
| This exporter uses a vendored copy of the Apache Thrift library (v0.14.1) at a custom import path. When re-generating Thrift code in future, please adapt import paths as necessary. | ||||
| See [../../example/jaeger](../../example/jaeger). | ||||
|  | ||||
| ## Configuration | ||||
|  | ||||
| The exporter can be used to send spans to: | ||||
|  | ||||
| - Jaeger agent using `jaeger.thrift` over binary thrift protocol via | ||||
|   [`WithAgentEndpoint`](https://pkg.go.dev/go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/jaeger#WithAgentEndpoint) option. | ||||
| - Jaeger collector using `jaeger.thrift` over HTTP via | ||||
|   [`WithCollectorEndpoint`](https://pkg.go.dev/go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/jaeger#WithCollectorEndpoint) option. | ||||
|  | ||||
| ### Environment Variables | ||||
|  | ||||
| The following environment variables can be used | ||||
| (instead of options objects) to override the default configuration. | ||||
|  | ||||
| | Environment variable              | Option                                                                                        | Default value                       | | ||||

| | `OTEL_EXPORTER_JAEGER_ENDPOINT`   | [`WithEndpoint`](https://pkg.go.dev/go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/jaeger#WithEndpoint)   | `http://localhost:14268/api/traces` | | ||||
