GO2Sky
GO2Sky is an instrument SDK library, written in Go, by following Apache SkyWalking tracing and metrics formats.
Installation
$ go get -u github.com/SkyAPM/go2sky
The API of this project is still evolving. The use of vendoring tool is recommended.
Quickstart
By completing this quickstart, you will learn how to trace local methods. For more details, please view the example.
Configuration
GO2Sky can export traces to Apache SkyWalking OAP server or local logger. In the following example, we configure GO2Sky to export to OAP server,
which is listening on oap-skywalking
port 11800
, and all the spans from this program will be associated with a service name example
.
reporter.GRPCReporter
can also adjust the behavior through reporter.GRPCReporterOption
, view all.
r, err := reporter.NewGRPCReporter("oap-skywalking:11800")
if err != nil {
log.Fatalf("new reporter error %v \n", err)
}
defer r.Close()
tracer, err := go2sky.NewTracer("example", go2sky.WithReporter(r))
In some scenarios, we may need a filter to filter segments that do not need to be submitted, for example, to reduce the load of gRPC reporting, or only track the request of error.
r, err := reporter.NewGRPCReporter("oap-skywalking:11800", reporter.WithReportStrategy(func(s *v3.SegmentObject) bool {
var isReport bool
for _, span := s.GetSpans() {
if span.GetIsError() {
isReport = true
break
}
}
return isReport
}))
You can also create tracer with sampling rate. It supports decimals between 0-1 (two decimal places), representing the sampling percentage of trace.
tracer, err := go2sky.NewTracer("example", go2sky.WithReporter(r), go2sky.WithSampler(0.5))
Also could customize correlation context config.
tracer, err := go2sky.NewTracer("example", go2sky.WithReporter(r), go2sky.WithSampler(0.5), go2sky.WithCorrelation(3, 128))
Create span
To create a span in a trace, we used the Tracer
to start a new span. We indicate this as the root span because of
passing context.Background()
. We must also be sure to end this span, which will be show in End span.
span, ctx, err := tracer.CreateLocalSpan(context.Background())
Create a sub span
A sub span created as the children of root span links to its parent with Context
.
subSpan, newCtx, err := tracer.CreateLocalSpan(ctx)
Get correlation
Get custom data from tracing context.
value := go2sky.GetCorrelation(ctx, key)
Put correlation
Put custom data to tracing context.
success := go2sky.PutCorrelation(ctx, key, value)
End span
We must end the spans so they becomes available for sending to the backend by a reporter.
subSpan.End()
span.End()
Global Tracer
Set and get global Tracer
// new tracer
tr, err := go2sky.NewTracer("example")
// registers `tracer` as the global Tracer
go2sky.SetGlobalTracer(tr)
// returns the registered global Tracer
// if none is registered then an instance of `nil` is returned
tracer := go2sky.GetGlobalTracer()
Get Active Span
Get the activeSpan
in the Context
.
go2sky.ActiveSpan(ctx)
With Span
Save the activeSpan
to Context
go2sky.WithSpan(ctx, activeSpan)
Get Global Service Name
Get the ServiceName
of the activeSpan
in the Context
.
go2sky.ServiceName(ctx)
Get Global Service Instance Name
Get the ServiceInstanceName
of the activeSpan
in the Context
.
go2sky.ServiceInstanceName(ctx)
Get Global TraceID
Get the TraceID
of the activeSpan
in the Context
.
go2sky.TraceID(ctx)
Get Global TraceSegmentID
Get the TraceSegmentID
of the activeSpan
in the Context
.
go2sky.TraceSegmentID(ctx)
Get Global SpanID
Get the SpanID
of the activeSpan
in the Context
.
go2sky.SpanID(ctx)
Periodically Report
Go2sky agent reports the segments periodically. It would not wait for all finished segments reported when the service exits.
Advanced Concepts
We cover some advanced topics about GO2Sky.
Context propagation
Trace links spans belong to it by using context propagation which varies between different scenario.
In process
We use context
package to link spans. The root span usually pick context.Background()
, and sub spans
will inject the context generated by its parent.
//Create a new context
entrySpan, entryCtx, err := tracer.CreateEntrySpan(context.Background(), ...)
// Some operation
...
// Link two spans by injecting entrySpan context into exitSpan
exitSpan, err := tracer.CreateExitSpan(entryCtx, ...)
Crossing process
We use Entry
span to extract context from downstream service, and use Exit
span to inject context to
upstream service.
Entry
and Exit
spans make sense to OAP analysis which generates topology map and service metrics.
//Extract context from HTTP request header `sw8`
span, ctx, err := tracer.CreateEntrySpan(r.Context(), "/api/login", func(key string) (string, error) {
return r.Header.Get(key), nil
})
// Some operation
...
// Inject context into HTTP request header `sw8`
span, err := tracer.CreateExitSpan(req.Context(), "/service/validate", "tomcat-service:8080", func(key, value string) error {
req.Header.Set(key, value)
return nil
})
Tag
We set tags into a span which is stored in the backend, but some tags have special purpose. OAP server may use them to aggregate metrics, generate topology map and etc.
They are defined as constant in root package with prefix Tag
.
Log x Trace context
Inject trace context into the log text. SkyWalking LAL(log analysis language) engine could extract the context from the text and correlate trace and logs.
// Get trace context data
import go2skylog "github.com/SkyAPM/go2sky/log"
logContext = go2skylog.FromContext(ctx)
// Build context data string
// Inject context string into log
// Context format string: [$serviceName,$instanceName,$traceId,$traceSegmentId,$spanId]
contextString := logContext.String()

Supported Environment Variables
Below is the full list of supported environment variables you can set to customize the agent behavior, please read the descriptions for what they can achieve.
Environment Variable | Description | Default |
---|---|---|
SW_AGENT_NAME |
The name of the Go service | unset |
SW_AGENT_LAYER |
Instance belong layer name which define in the backend | unset |
SW_AGENT_INSTANCE_NAME |
The name of the Go service instance | Randomly generated |
SW_AGENT_SAMPLE |
Sample rate, 1 setting it to 1 means full sampling | 1 |
SW_AGENT_COLLECTOR_BACKEND_SERVICES |
The backend OAP server address | unset |
SW_AGENT_AUTHENTICATION |
The authentication token to verify that the agent is trusted by the backend OAP, as for how to configure the backend, refer to the yaml. | unset |
SW_AGENT_COLLECTOR_HEARTBEAT_PERIOD |
Agent heartbeat report period. Unit, second | 20 |
SW_AGENT_COLLECTOR_GET_AGENT_DYNAMIC_CONFIG_INTERVAL |

CDS - Configuration Discovery Service
Configuration Discovery Service provides the dynamic configuration for the agent, defined in gRPC and stored in the backend.
Available key(s) and value(s) in Golang Agent.
Golang agent supports the following dynamic configurations.
Config Key | Value Description | Value Format Example |
---|---|---|
agent.sample_rate | The percentage of trace when sampling. It's [0, 1] , Same with WithSampler parameter. |
0.1 |
Process Status Hook
This feature is used in cooperation with the skywalking-rover project.
When go2sky keeps alive with the backend, it would write a metadata file to the local (temporary directory) at the same time, which describes the information of the current process. The rover side scans all processes, find out which process contains this metadata file. Finally, the rover could collect, profiling, with this process.
Metadata File
The metadata file use to save metadata with current process, it save in: {TMPDIR}/apache_skywalking/process/{pid}/metadata.properties
.
Also, when the go2sky keep alive with backend, modify and open time of the metadata file would be updated.
Key | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
layer | string | this process layer. |
service_name | string | this process service name. |
instance_name | string | this process instance name. |
process_name | string | this process process name, it's same with the instance name. |
properties | json | the properties in instance, the process labels also in the properties value. |
labels | string | the process labels, multiple labels split by ",". |
language | string | current process language, which is golang . |
