Overview

Package trace provides an implementation of the tracing part of the OpenTelemetry API.

This package is currently in a pre-GA phase. Backwards incompatible changes may be introduced in subsequent minor version releases as we work to track the evolving OpenTelemetry specification and user feedback.

To participate in distributed traces a Span needs to be created for the operation being performed as part of a traced workflow. It its simplest form:

var tracer trace.Tracer

func init() {
	tracer = otel.Tracer("instrumentation/package/name")
}

func operation(ctx context.Context) {
	var span trace.Span
	ctx, span = tracer.Start(ctx, "operation")
	defer span.End()
	// ...
}

A Tracer is unique to the instrumentation and is used to create Spans. Instrumentation should be designed to accept a TracerProvider from which it can create its own unique Tracer. Alternatively, the registered global TracerProvider from the go.opentelemetry.io/otel package can be used as a default.

const (
	name    = "instrumentation/package/name"
	version = "0.1.0"
)

type Instrumentation struct {
	tracer trace.Tracer
}

func NewInstrumentation(tp trace.TracerProvider) *Instrumentation {
	if tp == nil {
		tp = otel.TracerProvider()
	}
	return &Instrumentation{
		tracer: tp.Tracer(name, trace.WithInstrumentationVersion(version)),
	}
}

func operation(ctx context.Context, inst *Instrumentation) {
	var span trace.Span
	ctx, span = inst.tracer.Start(ctx, "operation")
	defer span.End()
	// ...
}

Functions

func ContextWithRemoteSpanContext

func ContextWithRemoteSpanContext(parent context.Context, remote SpanContext) context.Context

ContextWithRemoteSpanContext returns a copy of parent with a remote set as the remote span context.

func ContextWithSpan

func ContextWithSpan(parent context.Context, span Span) context.Context

ContextWithSpan returns a copy of parent with span set to current.

Types

type EventOption

type EventOption interface {
	ApplyEvent(*SpanConfig)
}

EventOption applies span event options to a SpanConfig.

type InstrumentationOption

type InstrumentationOption interface {
	TracerOption
}

InstrumentationOption is an interface for applying instrumentation specific options.

func WithInstrumentationVersion

func WithInstrumentationVersion(version string) InstrumentationOption

WithInstrumentationVersion sets the instrumentation version.

type LifeCycleOption

type LifeCycleOption interface {
	SpanOption
	EventOption
}

LifeCycleOption applies span life-cycle options to a SpanConfig. These options set values releated to events in a spans life-cycle like starting, ending, experiencing an error and other user defined notable events.

func WithAttributes

func WithAttributes(attributes ...label.KeyValue) LifeCycleOption

WithAttributes adds the attributes related to a span life-cycle event. These attributes are used to describe the work a Span represents when this option is provided to a Span's start or end events. Otherwise, these attributes provide additional information about the event being recorded (e.g. error, state change, processing progress, system event).

If multiple of these options are passed the attributes of each successive option will extend the attributes instead of overwriting. There is no guarantee of uniqueness in the resulting attributes.

func WithTimestamp

func WithTimestamp(t time.Time) LifeCycleOption

WithTimestamp sets the time of a Span life-cycle moment (e.g. started, stopped, errored).

type Link struct {
	SpanContext
	Attributes []label.KeyValue
}

Link is the relationship between two Spans. The relationship can be within the same Trace or across different Traces.

For example, a Link is used in the following situations:

  1. Batch Processing: A batch of operations may contain operations associated with one or more traces/spans. Since there can only be one parent SpanContext, a Link is used to keep reference to the SpanContext of all operations in the batch.
  2. Public Endpoint: A SpanContext for an in incoming client request on a public endpoint should be considered untrusted. In such a case, a new trace with its own identity and sampling decision needs to be created, but this new trace needs to be related to the original trace in some form. A Link is used to keep reference to the original SpanContext and track the relationship.

type Span

type Span interface {
	// Tracer returns the Tracer that created the Span. Tracer MUST NOT be
	// nil.
	Tracer() Tracer

	// End completes the Span. The Span is considered complete and ready to be
	// delivered through the rest of the telemetry pipeline after this method
	// is called. Therefore, updates to the Span are not allowed after this
	// method has been called.
	End(options ...SpanOption)

	// AddEvent adds an event with the provided name and options.
	AddEvent(name string, options ...EventOption)

	// IsRecording returns the recording state of the Span. It will return
	// true if the Span is active and events can be recorded.
	IsRecording() bool

	// RecordError records an error as a Span event.
	RecordError(err error, options ...EventOption)

	// SpanContext returns the SpanContext of the Span. The returned
	// SpanContext is usable even after the End has been called for the Span.
	SpanContext() SpanContext

	// SetStatus sets the status of the Span in the form of a code and a
	// message. SetStatus overrides the value of previous calls to SetStatus
	// on the Span.
	SetStatus(code codes.Code, msg string)

	// SetName sets the Span name.
	SetName(name string)

	// SetAttributes sets kv as attributes of the Span. If a key from kv
	// already exists for an attribute of the Span it will be overwritten with
	// the value contained in kv.
	SetAttributes(kv ...label.KeyValue)
}

Span is the individual component of a trace. It represents a single named and timed operation of a workflow that is traced. A Tracer is used to create a Span and it is then up to the operation the Span represents to properly end the Span when the operation itself ends.

func SpanFromContext

func SpanFromContext(ctx context.Context) Span

SpanFromContext returns the current span from ctx, or noop span if none set.

type SpanConfig

type SpanConfig struct {
	// Attributes describe the associated qualities of a Span.
	Attributes []label.KeyValue
	// Timestamp is a time in a Span life-cycle.
	Timestamp time.Time
	// Links are the associations a Span has with other Spans.
	Links []Link
	// Record is the recording state of a Span.
	Record bool
	// NewRoot identifies a Span as the root Span for a new trace. This is
	// commonly used when an existing trace crosses trust boundaries and the
	// remote parent span context should be ignored for security.
	NewRoot bool
	// SpanKind is the role a Span has in a trace.
	SpanKind SpanKind
}

SpanConfig is a group of options for a Span.

func NewEventConfig

func NewEventConfig(options ...EventOption) *SpanConfig

func NewSpanConfig

func NewSpanConfig(options ...SpanOption) *SpanConfig

NewSpanConfig applies all the options to a returned SpanConfig. No validation is performed on the returned SpanConfig (e.g. no uniqueness checking or bounding of data), it is left to the SDK to perform this action.

	// if it is received.
	SpanKindUnspecified SpanKind = 0
	// SpanKindInternal is a SpanKind for a Span that represents an internal
	// operation within an application.
	SpanKindInternal SpanKind = 1
	// SpanKindServer is a SpanKind for a Span that represents the operation
	// of handling a request from a client.
	SpanKindServer SpanKind = 2
	// SpanKindClient is a SpanKind for a Span that represents the operation
	// of client making a request to a server.
	SpanKindClient SpanKind = 3
	// SpanKindProducer is a SpanKind for a Span that represents the operation
	// of a producer sending a message to a message broker. Unlike
	// SpanKindClient and SpanKindServer, there is often no direct
	// relationship between this kind of Span and a SpanKindConsumer kind. A
	// SpanKindProducer Span will end once the message is accepted by the
	// message broker which might not overlap with the processing of that
	// message.
	SpanKindProducer SpanKind = 4
	// SpanKindConsumer is a SpanKind for a Span that represents the operation
	// of a consumer receiving a message from a message broker. Like
	// SpanKindProducer Spans, there is often no direct relationship between
	// this Span and the Span that produced the message.
	SpanKindConsumer SpanKind = 5
)

As a convenience, these match the proto definition, see https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-proto/blob/30d237e1ff3ab7aa50e0922b5bebdd93505090af/opentelemetry/proto/trace/v1/trace.proto#L101-L129

}

TraceState provides additional vendor-specific trace identification information across different distributed tracing systems. It represents an immutable list consisting of key/value pairs. There can be a maximum of 32 entries in the list.

Key and value of each list member must be valid according to the W3C Trace Context specification (see https://www.w3.org/TR/trace-context-1/#key and https://www.w3.org/TR/trace-context-1/#value respectively).

Trace state must be valid according to the W3C Trace Context specification at all times. All mutating operations validate their input and, in case of valid parameters, return a new TraceState.
