Jaeger gRPC Exporter

Exports data via gRPC to Jaeger destinations. By default, this exporter requires TLS and offers queued retry capabilities. A Jaeger Thrift HTTP exporter is available in the contrib repository.

Supported pipeline types: traces

Getting Started

The following settings are required:

• endpoint (no default): host:port to which the exporter is going to send Jaeger trace data, using the gRPC protocol. The valid syntax is described here

By default, TLS is enabled:

• insecure (default = false): whether to enable client transport security for the exporter's connection.

As a result, the following parameters are also required:

• cert_file (no default): path to the TLS cert to use for TLS required connections. Should only be used if insecure is set to false.
• key_file (no default): path to the TLS key to use for TLS required connections. Should only be used if insecure is set to false.

Example:

exporters:
  jaeger:
    endpoint: jaeger-all-in-one:14250
    cert_file: file.cert
    key_file: file.key
  jaeger/2:
    endpoint: jaeger-all-in-one:14250
    insecure: true

Advanced Configuration

Several helper files are leveraged to provide additional capabilities automatically:

• gRPC settings
• TLS and mTLS settings
• Queuing, retry and timeout settings

Functions

func MetricViews

func MetricViews() []*view.View

MetricViews return the metrics views according to given telemetry level.

func NewFactory

func NewFactory() component.ExporterFactory

NewFactory creates a factory for Jaeger exporter

Types

type Config

type Config struct {
	configmodels.ExporterSettings  `mapstructure:",squash"` // squash ensures fields are correctly decoded in embedded struct.
	exporterhelper.TimeoutSettings `mapstructure:",squash"` // squash ensures fields are correctly decoded in embedded struct.
	exporterhelper.QueueSettings   `mapstructure:"sending_queue"`
	exporterhelper.RetrySettings   `mapstructure:"retry_on_failure"`

	configgrpc.GRPCClientSettings `mapstructure:",squash"` // squash ensures fields are correctly decoded in embedded struct.
}

Config defines configuration for Jaeger gRPC exporter.
