Hemera-zipkin package

Tracking level

1. Per subscription: Each topic represents a subscription in NATS and therefore handled as own service. The hemera tag indentifiy the server instance.
2. Per hemera instance: Each hemera instance represents the whole service. The service name can be configured by the tag option.

Install

npm i hemera-zipkin --save

Getting started

Run zipkin in docker

$ docker-compose up

You can then navigate to http://localhost:9411 to access the Zipkin UI.

Usage

const hemera = new Hemera(nats, {
  logLevel: 'debug',
  childLogger: true,
  tag: 'user-service'
})

hemera.use(hemeraZipkin, {
  debug: false,
  host: '127.0.0.1',
  port: '9411',
  path: '/api/v1/spans',
  subscriptionBased: true, // when false the hemera tag represents the service otherwise the NATS topic name
  sampling: 1
})
