Overview

Package profiler periodically collects and sends profiles to the Datadog API. Use Start to start the profiler. An API key needs to be specified by means of the WithAPIKey option.

Example

This example illustrates how to run (and later stop) the Datadog Profiler. 

package main

import (
	"log"

	"gopkg.in/DataDog/dd-trace-go.v1/profiler"
)

func main() {
	err := profiler.Start(
		profiler.WithAPIKey("123key"),
		profiler.WithService("users-db"),
		profiler.WithEnv("staging"),
		profiler.WithTags("version:1.2.0"),
	)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	defer profiler.Stop()

	// ...
}

Functions

func Start 

func Start(opts ...Option) error

Start starts the profiler. It may return an error if an API key is not provided by means of the WithAPIKey option, or if a hostname is not found.

func Stop 

func Stop()

Stop cancels any ongoing profiling or upload operations and returns after everything has been stopped.

Types

type Option 

type Option func(*config)

An Option is used to configure the profiler's behaviour.

func BlockProfileRate added in v1.33.3 

func BlockProfileRate(rate int) Option

BlockProfileRate turns on block profiles with the given rate. The profiler samples an average of one blocking event per rate nanoseconds spent blocked. For example, set rate to 1000000000 (aka int(time.Second.Nanoseconds())) to record one sample per second a goroutine is blocked. A rate of 1 catches every event. Setting an aggressive rate can hurt performance. For more information on this value, check runtime.SetBlockProfileRate.

func CPUDuration 

func CPUDuration(d time.Duration) Option

CPUDuration specifies the length at which to collect CPU profiles.

func MutexProfileFraction added in v1.33.3 

func MutexProfileFraction(rate int) Option

MutexProfileFraction turns on mutex profiles with rate indicating the fraction of mutex contention events reported in the mutex profile. On average, 1/rate events are reported. Setting an aggressive rate can hurt performance. For more information on this value, check runtime.SetMutexProfileFraction.

func WithAPIKey 

func WithAPIKey(key string) Option

WithAPIKey sets the Datadog API Key and takes precedence over the DD_API_KEY env variable. Historically this option was used to enable agentless uploading, but as of dd-trace-go v1.30.0 the behavior has changed to always default to agent based uploading which doesn't require an API key. So if you currently don't have an agent running on the default localhost:8126 hostport you need to set it up, or use WithAgentAddr to specify the hostport location of the agent. See WithAgentlessUpload for more information.

func WithAgentAddr added in v1.33.3 

func WithAgentAddr(hostport string) Option

WithAgentAddr specifies the address to use when reaching the Datadog Agent.

func WithAgentlessUpload added in v1.33.3 

func WithAgentlessUpload() Option

WithAgentlessUpload is currently for internal usage only and not officially supported. You should not enable it unless somebody at Datadog instructed you to do so. It allows to skip the agent and talk to the Datadog API directly using the provided API key.

func WithEnv 

func WithEnv(env string) Option

WithEnv specifies the environment to which these profiles should be registered.

func WithHTTPClient added in v1.33.3 

func WithHTTPClient(client *http.Client) Option

WithHTTPClient specifies the HTTP client to use when submitting profiles to Site. In general, using this method is only necessary if you have need to customize the transport layer, for instance when using a unix domain socket.

func WithPeriod 

func WithPeriod(d time.Duration) Option

WithPeriod specifies the interval at which to collect profiles.

func WithProfileTypes 

func WithProfileTypes(types ...ProfileType) Option

WithProfileTypes specifies the profile types to be collected by the profiler.

func WithService 

func WithService(name string) Option

WithService specifies the service name to attach to a profile.

func WithSite added in v1.33.3 

func WithSite(site string) Option

WithSite specifies the datadog site (datadoghq.com, datadoghq.eu, etc.) which profiles will be sent to.

func WithStatsd 

func WithStatsd(client StatsdClient) Option

WithStatsd specifies an optional statsd client to use for metrics. By default, no metrics are sent.

func WithTags 

func WithTags(tags ...string) Option

WithTags specifies a set of tags to be attached to the profiler. These may help filter the profiling view based on various information.

func WithUDS added in v1.33.3 

func WithUDS(socketPath string) Option

WithUDS configures the HTTP client to dial the Datadog Agent via the specified Unix Domain Socket path.

func WithURL 

func WithURL(url string) Option

WithURL specifies the HTTP URL for the Datadog Profiling API.

func WithUploadTimeout added in v1.33.3 

func WithUploadTimeout(d time.Duration) Option

WithUploadTimeout specifies the timeout to use for uploading profiles. The default timeout is specified by DefaultUploadTimeout or the DD_PROFILING_UPLOAD_TIMEOUT env variable. Using a negative value or 0 will cause an error when starting the profiler.

func WithVersion 

func WithVersion(version string) Option

WithVersion specifies the service version tag to attach to profiles

type ProfileType 

type ProfileType int

ProfileType represents a type of profile that the profiler is able to run. 

const (
	// HeapProfile reports memory allocation samples; used to monitor current
	// and historical memory usage, and to check for memory leaks.
	HeapProfile ProfileType = iota
	// CPUProfile determines where a program spends its time while actively consuming
	// CPU cycles (as opposed to while sleeping or waiting for I/O).
	CPUProfile
	// BlockProfile shows where goroutines block waiting on synchronization primitives
	// (including timer channels). Block profile is not enabled by default.
	BlockProfile
	// MutexProfile reports the lock contentions. When you think your CPU is not fully utilized due
	// to a mutex contention, use this profile. Mutex profile is not enabled by default.
	MutexProfile
	// GoroutineProfile reports stack traces of all current goroutines
	GoroutineProfile

	// MetricsProfile reports top-line metrics associated with user-specified profiles
	MetricsProfile
)

func (ProfileType) Filename added in v1.33.3 

func (t ProfileType) Filename() string

Filename is the identifier used on upload.

func (ProfileType) String 

func (t ProfileType) String() string

func (ProfileType) Tag added in v1.33.3 

func (t ProfileType) Tag() string

Tag used on profile metadata

type StatsdClient 

type StatsdClient interface {
	// Count counts how many times an event happened, at the given rate using the given tags.
	Count(event string, times int64, tags []string, rate float64) error
	// Timing creates a distribution of the values registered as the duration of a certain event.
	Timing(event string, duration time.Duration, tags []string, rate float64) error
}

StatsdClient implementations can count and time certain event occurrences that happen in the profiler.
