## OpenTracing
This library is a Tarantool platform API for OpenTracing.
### Required Reading
To fully understand this platform API,
it's helpful to be familiar with the [OpenTracing project](https://opentracing.io) and
[terminology](https://opentracing.io/specification/) more specifically.
### Conventions
- All timestamps are in microseconds
### Span
> The “span” is the primary building block of a distributed trace,
representing an individual unit of work done in a distributed system.
Traces in OpenTracing are defined implicitly by their Spans.
In particular, a Trace can be thought of as a directed acyclic graph
(DAG) of Spans, where the edges between Spans are called References.
```lua
local opentracing_span = require('opentracing.span')
-- tracer - External tracer
-- context - Span context
-- name - Name of span
-- start_timestamp (optional) - Time of span's start in microseconds (by default current time)
local span = opentracing_span.new(tracer, context, name, start_timestamp)
```
### SpanContext
> The SpanContext carries data across process boundaries.
```lua
local opentracing_span_context = require('opentracing.span_context')
-- trace_id (optional) - Trace ID (by default generates automatically)
-- span_id (optional) - Span ID (by default generates automatically)
-- parent_id (optional) - Span ID of parent span (by default is empty)
-- should_sample (optional) - Flag is enable collecting data of this span (by default false)
-- baggage (optional) - Table with trace baggage (by default is empty table)
local context = opentracing_span_context.new({
tracer_id = trace_id,
span_id = span_id,
parent_id = parent_id,
should_sample = should_sample,
baggage = baggage,
})
```
### Tracer
> The Tracer interface creates Spans and understands
how to Inject (serialize) and Extract (deserialize)
their metadata across process boundaries.
An interface for custom tracers
```lua
local opentracing_tracer = require('opentracing.tracer')
-- reporter (optional) - Table with `report` method to process finished spans (by default no-op table)
-- sampler (optional) - Table with `sample` method to select traces to send to distributing tracing system (by default random selection)
-- But you can implement your own sampler with appropriate sampling strategy
-- For more information see: https://www.jaegertracing.io/docs/1.11/sampling/
local tracer = opentracing_tracer.new(reporter, sampler)
```
### Basic usage
```lua
local zipkin = require('zipkin.tracer')
local opentracing = require('opentracing')
-- Create client to Zipkin and set it global for easy access from any part of app
local tracer = zipkin.new(config)
opentracing.set_global_tracer(tracer)
-- Create and manage spans manually
local span = opentracing.start_span('root span')
-- ... your code ...
span:finish()
-- Simple wrappers via user's function
-- Creates span before function call and finishes it after
local result = opentracing.trace('one span', func, ...)
-- Wrappers with context passing
local span = opentracing.start_span('root span')
-- Pass your function as third argument and then its arguments
opentracing.trace_with_context('child span 1', span:context(), func1, ...)
opentracing.trace_with_context('child span 2', span:context(), func2, ...)
span:finish()
```
## Zipkin
[Zipkin](https://zipkin.io/) is a distributed tracing system.
It helps gather timing data needed to troubleshoot latency problems in microservice architectures.
It manages both the collection and lookup of this data.
This module allows you to instance Zipkin Tracer that can start spans and
will report collected spans to Zipkin Server.
### Basic usage
```lua
local zipkin = require('zipkin.tracer')
-- First argument is config that contains url of Zipkin API,
-- method to send collected traces and interval of reports in seconds
-- Second optional argument is Sampler (see OpenTracing API description), by default random sampler
local tracer = zipkin.new({
base_url = 'localhost:9411/api/v2/spans',
api_method = 'POST',
report_interval = 0,
}, Sampler)
local span = tracer:start_span('example')
-- ...
span:finish()
```
## Examples
### HTTP
This example is a Lua port of
[Go OpenTracing tutorial](https://github.com/yurishkuro/opentracing-tutorial/tree/master/go).
*Complete source code see [here](/examples/http)*
#### Description
The example demonstrates trace propagation through two services:
`formatter` that formats the source string to "Hello, world"
and `publisher` that prints it in the console.
Add data to these services via HTTP; initially it sends `client`.
*Note: example requires http rock (version >= 1.2.0)*
*Install it using `tt rocks install http 1.2.0`*
#### How to run
* Create `docker-compose.zipkin.yml`

### Tarantool Cartridge
*Complete source code see [here](/examples/cartridge)*
Opentracing could be used with [Tarantool Cartridge](https://github.com/tarantool/cartridge).
This example is pretty similar to previous. We will have several roles
that communicate via rpc_call.
#### Basics
Before describing let's define some restrictions of "tracing in Tarantool".
Remote communications between tarantools are made using `net.box` module.
It allows to send only primitive types (except functions) and doesn't have
containers for request context (as headers in HTTP).
Then you should transfer span context explicitly as raw table as additional argument
in your function.
```lua
-- Create span
local span = opentracing.start_span('span')
-- Create context carrier
local rpc_context = {}
opentracing.map_inject(span:context(), rpc_context)
-- Pass context explicitly as additional argument
local res, err = cartridge.rpc_call('role', 'fun', {rpc_context, ...})
```
#### Using inside roles
The logic of tracing fits into a separate permanent role.
Let's define it:
```lua
local opentracing = require('opentracing')
local zipkin = require('zipkin.tracer')
local log = require('log')
-- config = {
-- base_url = 'localhost:9411/api/v2/spans',
-- api_method = 'POST',
-- report_interval = 5, -- in seconds
-- spans_limit = 1e4, -- amount of spans that could be stored locally
-- }
local function apply_config(config)
-- sample all requests
local sampler = { sample = function() return true end }
local tracer = zipkin.new({
base_url = config.base_url,
api_method = config.api_method,
report_interval = config.report_interval,
spans_limit = config.spans_limit,
on_error = function(err) log.error('zipkin error: %s', err) end,
}, sampler)
-- Setup global tracer for easy access from another modules
opentracing.set_global_tracer(tracer)
return true
end
return {
role_name = 'tracing',
apply_config = apply_config,
dependencies = {},
-- Role will be hidden from WebUI
-- but constantly enabled on all instances,
-- no need to specify it as dependency for other roles
permanent = true,
}
```
Then you can use this role as dependency:
```lua
local opentracing = require('opentracing')
local membership = require('membership')
local role_name = 'formatter'
local template = 'Hello, %s'
local service_uri = ('%s@%s'):format(role_name, membership.myself().uri)
local function format(ctx, input)
-- Extract tracing context from request context
local context = opentracing.map_extract(ctx)
local span = opentracing.start_span_from_context(context, 'format')
span:set_component(service_uri)
local result, err
if input == '' then
err = 'Empty string'
span:set_error(err)
else
result = template:format(input)
end
span:finish()
return result, err
end
local function init(_)
return true
end
local function stop()
end
local function validate_config(_, _)
return true
end
local function apply_config(_, _)
return true
end
return {
format = format,
role_name = role_name,
init = init,
stop = stop,
validate_config = validate_config,
apply_config = apply_config,
dependencies = {},
}
```
