Zipkin-transport-http

This is a module that sends Zipkin trace data to a configurable HTTP endpoint.

Usage

npm install zipkin-transport-http --save

const {
  Tracer,
  BatchRecorder,
  jsonEncoder: {JSON_V2}
} = require('zipkin');
const {HttpLogger} = require('zipkin-transport-http');
const noop = require('noop-logger');

const recorder = new BatchRecorder({
  logger: new HttpLogger({
    endpoint: 'http://localhost:9411/api/v2/spans', // Required
    jsonEncoder: JSON_V2, // JSON encoder to use. Optional (defaults to JSON_V1)
    httpInterval: 1000, // How often to sync spans. Optional (defaults to 1000)
    headers: {'Authorization': 'secret'}, // Custom HTTP headers. Optional
    timeout: 1000, // Timeout for HTTP Post. Optional (defaults to 0)
    maxPayloadSize: 0 // Max payload size for zipkin span. Optional (defaults to 0)
    agent: new http.Agent({keepAlive: true}), // Agent used for network related options. Optional (defaults to null)
    log: noop // Logger to use. Optional (defaults to console)
  })
});

const tracer = new Tracer({
  recorder,
  ctxImpl, // this would typically be a CLSContext or ExplicitContext
  localServiceName: 'service-a' // name of this application
});

Options

• endpoint - HTTP endpoint which spans will be sent.

Optional

    key: fs.readFileSync('pathToPrivateKey')
  })
})
