appdash

Appdash is an application tracing system for Go, based on Google's Dapper and Twitter's Zipkin.

Appdash allows you to trace the end-to-end handling of requests and operations in your application (for perf and debugging). It displays timings and application-specific metadata for each step, and it displays a tree and timeline for each request and its children.

To use appdash, you must instrument your application with calls to an appdash recorder. You can record any type of event or operation. Recorders and schemas for HTTP (client and server) and SQL are provided, and you can write your own.

Usage

To install appdash, run:

go get -u sourcegraph.com/sourcegraph/appdash/cmd/...

A standalone example using Negroni and Gorilla packages is available in the examples/cmd/webapp folder.

A demo / pure net/http application (which is slightly more verbose) is also available at cmd/appdash/example_app.go, and it can be ran easily using appdash demo on the command line.

Development

Appdash uses vfsgen to package HTML templates with the appdash binary for distribution. This means that if you want to modify the template data in traceapp/tmpl you can first build using the dev build tag, which makes the template data be reloaded from disk live.

After you're finished making changes to the templates, always run go generate sourcegraph.com/sourcegraph/appdash/traceapp/tmpl so that the data_vfsdata.go file is updated for normal Appdash users that aren't interested in modifying the template data.

Dependencies are vendored using govendor. Prior to updating InfluxDB dependencies you should run gdm restore in that repository.

Components

Appdash follows the design and naming conventions of Google's Dapper. You should read that paper if you are curious about why certain architectural choices were made.

There are 4 main components/concepts in appdash:

  • Spans: A span refers to an operation and all of its children. For example, an HTTP handler handles a request by calling other components in your system, which in turn make various API and DB calls. The HTTP handler's span includes all downstream operations and their descendents; likewise, each downstream operation is its own span and has its own descendents. In this way, appdash constructs a tree of all of the operations that occur during the handling of the HTTP request.
  • Event: Your application records the various operations it performs (in the course of handling a request) as Events. Events can be arbitrary messages or metadata, or they can be structured event types defined by a Go type (such as an HTTP ServerEvent or an SQLEvent).
  • Recorder: Your application uses a Recorder to send events to a Collector (see below). Each Recorder is associated with a particular span in the tree of operations that are handling a particular request, and all events sent via a Recorder are automatically associated with that context.
  • Collector: A Collector receives Annotations (which are the encoded form of Events) sent by a Recorder. Typically, your application's Recorder talks to a local Collector (created with NewRemoteCollector. This local Collector forwards data to a remote appdash server (created with NewServer that combines traces from all of the services that compose your application. The appdash server in turn runs a Collector that listens on the network for this data, and it then stores what it receives.

Language Support

Appdash has clients available for Go, Python (see python/ subdir) and Ruby (see https://github.com/bsm/appdash-rb).

OpenTracing Support

Appdash supports the OpenTracing API. Please see the opentracing subdir for the Go implementation, or see the GoDoc for API documentation.

Documentation

Overview

Package appdash provides a Go app performance tracing suite.

Appdash allows you to trace the end-to-end performance of hierarchically structured applications. You can, for example, measure the time and see the detailed information of each HTTP request and SQL query made by an entire distributed web application.

Web Front-end

The cmd/appdash tool launches a web front-end which displays a web UI for viewing collected app traces. It is effectively a remote collector which your application can connect and send events to.

Timing and application-specific metadata information can be viewed in a nice timeline view for each span (e.g. HTTP request) and it's children.

The web front-end can also be embedded in your own Go HTTP server by utilizing the traceapp sub-package, which is effectively what cmd/appdash serves internally.

HTTP and SQL tracing

Sub-packages for HTTP and SQL event tracing are provided for use with appdash, which allows it to function equivalently to Google's Dapper and Twitter's Zipkin performance tracing suites.

Appdash Structure

The most high-level structure is a Trace, which represents the performance of an application from start to finish (in an HTTP application, for example, the loading of a web page).

A Trace is a tree structure that is made up of several spans, which are just IDs (in an HTTP application, these ID's are passed through the stack via a few special headers).

Each span ID has a set of Events that directly correspond to it inside a Collector. These events can be any combination of message, log, time-span, or time-stamped events (the cmd/appdash web UI displays these events as appropriate).

Inside your application, a Recorder is used to send events to a Collector, which can be a remote HTTP(S) collector, a local in-memory or persistent collector, etc. Additionally, you can implement the Collector interface yourself and store events however you like.

Functions

func LogWithTimestamp

func LogWithTimestamp(msg string, timestamp time.Time) logEvent

LogWithTimestamp returns an Event with an explicit timestamp that contains only a human readable message.

func PersistEvery

func PersistEvery(s PersistentStore, interval time.Duration, file string) error

PersistEvery persists s's data to a file periodically.

func RegisterEvent

func RegisterEvent(e Event)

RegisterEvent registers an event type for use with UnmarshalEvents.

Events must be registered with this package in order for unmarshaling to work. Much like the image package, sometimes blank imports will be used for packages that register Appdash events with this package:

import(
    _ "sourcegraph.com/sourcegraph/appdash/httptrace"
    _ "sourcegraph.com/sourcegraph/appdash/sqltrace"
)

func UnmarshalEvent

func UnmarshalEvent(as Annotations, e Event) error

UnmarshalEvent unmarshals annotations into an event.

func UnmarshalEvents

func UnmarshalEvents(anns Annotations, events *[]Event) error

UnmarshalEvents unmarshals all events found in anns into events. Any schemas found in anns that were not registered (using RegisterEvent) are ignored; missing a schema is not an error.

Types

type AggregatedResult

type AggregatedResult struct {
	// RootSpanName is the name of the root span of the traces that were
	// aggregated to form this result.
	RootSpanName string

	// Average, Minimum, Maximum, and standard deviation of the total trace
	// times (earliest span start time, latest span end time) of all traces
	// that were aggregated to produce this result, respectively.
	Average, Min, Max, StdDev time.Duration

	// Samples is the number of traces that were sampled in order to produce
	// this result.
	Samples int64

	// Slowest is the N-slowest trace IDs that were part of this group, such
	// that these are the most valuable/slowest traces for inspection.
	Slowest []ID
}

AggregatedResult represents a set of traces that were aggregated together by root span name to produce some useful metrics (average trace time, minimum time, a link to the slowest traces, etc).

type Aggregator

type Aggregator interface {
	// Aggregate should return the aggregated data for all traces within the
	// past 72/hr, such that:
	//
	//  Aggregate(-72 * time.Hour, 0)
	//
	// would return all possible results.
	Aggregate(start, end time.Duration) ([]*AggregatedResult, error)
}

Aggregator is a type of store that can aggregate its trace data and return results about it.

type Annotation

type Annotation struct {
	// Key is the annotation's key.
	Key string

	// Value is the annotation's value, which may be either human or
	// machine readable, depending on the schema of the event that
	// generated it.
	Value []byte
}

An Annotation is an arbitrary key-value property on a span.

func (Annotation) Important

func (a Annotation) Important() bool

Important determines if this annotation's key is considered important to any of the registered event types.

type Annotations

type Annotations []Annotation

Annotations is a list of annotations (on a span).

func MarshalEvent

func MarshalEvent(e Event) (Annotations, error)

MarshalEvent marshals an event into annotations.

func (Annotations) String

func (as Annotations) String() string

String returns a formatted list of annotations.

func (Annotations) StringMap

func (as Annotations) StringMap() map[string]string

StringMap returns the annotations as a key-value map. Only one annotation for a key appears in the map, and it is chosen arbitrarily among the annotations with the same key.

type ChunkedCollector

type ChunkedCollector struct {
	// Collector is the underlying collector that spans are sent to.
	Collector

	// MinInterval specifies the minimum interval at which to call Flush
	// automatically (in a separate goroutine, as to not to block the caller who
	// may be recording time-sensitive operations).
	//
	// Default MinInterval = 500 * time.Millisecond (500ms).
	MinInterval time.Duration

	// FlushTimeout, if non-zero, specifies the time after which a flush operation
	// is considered timed out. If timeout occurs, the pending queue is entirely
	// dropped (trace data lost) and ErrQueueDropped is returned by Flush.
	//
	// Default FlushTimeout = 50 * time.Millisecond (50ms).
	FlushTimeout time.Duration

	// MaxQueueSize, if non-zero, is the maximum size in bytes that the pending
	// queue of collections may grow to before being entirely dropped (trace data
	// lost). In the event that the queue is dropped, Collect will return
	// ErrQueueDropped.
	//
	// Default MaxQueueSize = 32 * 1024 * 1024 (32 MB).
	MaxQueueSize uint64

	// Log, if non-nil, is used to log warnings like when the queue is entirely
	// dropped (and hence trace data was lost).
	Log *log.Logger

	// OnFlush, if non-nil, will be directly invoked at the start of each Flush
	// operation that is performed by this collector. queueSize is the number of
	// entries in the queue (i.e. number of underlying collections that will
	// occur).
	//
	// It is primarily used for debugging purposes.
	OnFlush func(queueSize int)
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

ChunkedCollector groups annotations together that have the same span and calls its underlying collector's Collect method with the chunked data periodically, instead of immediately. This is more efficient, especially in the case of the underlying Collector being an RemoteCollector, because whole spans are collected at once (rather than in parts). It also prevents the caller, usually a Recorder, from blocking time-sensitive operations on collection (which, in the case of RemoteCollector, may involve connecting to a remote server).

Inherently, ChunkedCollector queues all collections prior to them being flushed out to the underlying Collector. Because of this it's important to understand the various boundaries that are imposed to avoid any sort of queue backlogging or perceived memory leaks.

The flow of a ChunkedCollector is that:

  • It receives a collection.
  • If the queue size exceeds MaxQueueSize in bytes, the pending queue is entirely dropped and ErrQueueDropped is returned.
  • Otherwise, if the queue would not exceed that size, the collection is added to the queue.
  • After MinInterval (or if Flush is called manually), all queued collections are passed off to the underlying collector. If the overall Flush time measured after each underlying Collect call exceeds FlushTimeout, the pending queue is entirely dropped and ErrQueueDropped is returned.
  • If the queue has been entirely dropped as a result of one of the above cases, entire traces and/or parts of their data will be missing. For this reason, you may specify a Log for debugging purposes.

func NewChunkedCollector

func NewChunkedCollector(c Collector) *ChunkedCollector

NewChunkedCollector is shorthand for:

c := &ChunkedCollector{
	Collector:    c,
	MinInterval:  500 * time.Millisecond,
	FlushTimeout: 2 * time.Second,
	MaxQueueSize: 32 * 1024 * 1024, // 32 MB
	Log:          log.New(os.Stderr, "appdash: ", log.LstdFlags),
}

func (*ChunkedCollector) Collect

func (cc *ChunkedCollector) Collect(span SpanID, anns ...Annotation) error
