Example

HTTP

This is a simple example that demonstrates tracing http request from client to server. The example shows key aspects of tracing such as

  • Root Span (on Client)
  • Child Span (on Client)
  • Child Span from a Remote Parent (on Server)
  • SpanContext Propagation (from Client to Server)
  • Span Events
  • Span Attributes

Example uses

  • open-telemetry SDK as trace instrumentation provider,
  • httptrace plugin to facilitate tracing http request on client and server
  • http trace_context propagation to propagate SpanContext on the wire.
  • jaeger exporter to export spans to visualize and store them.

How to run?
