monkit-zipkin

A plugin for http://github.com/spacemonkeygo/monkit that supports Zipkin.

See the docs at http://godoc.org/gopkg.in/spacemonkeygo/monkit-zipkin.v2

Example usage

Your main method gets set up something like this:

package main

import (
	"net/http"

	"gopkg.in/spacemonkeygo/monkit-zipkin.v2"
	"gopkg.in/spacemonkeygo/monkit.v2"
	"gopkg.in/spacemonkeygo/monkit.v2/environment"
	"gopkg.in/spacemonkeygo/monkit.v2/present"
)

func main() {
	environment.Register(monkit.Default)
	go http.ListenAndServe("localhost:9000", present.HTTP(monkit.Default))
	collector, err := zipkin.NewScribeCollector("zipkin.whatever:9042")
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	zipkin.RegisterZipkin(monkit.Default, collector, zipkin.Options{
		Fraction: 1})

	...
}

Once you've done that, you need to make sure your HTTP handlers pull Zipkin Context info from the Request. That's easy to do with zipkin.ContextWrapper.

func HandleRequest(ctx context.Context, w http.ResponseWriter,
  r *http.Request) {
  defer mon.Task()(&ctx)(nil)

  ... whatever
}

func DoTheThing(ctx context.Context) (err error) {
  defer mon.Task()(&ctx)(&err)
  return http.Serve(listener, zipkin.ContextWrapper(
    zipkin.TraceHandler(zipkin.ContextHTTPHandlerFunc(HandleRequest))))
}

Last, your outbound HTTP requests need to pass through Context info:

func MakeRequest(ctx context.Context) (err error) {
  defer mon.Task()(&ctx)(&err)
  req, err := http.NewRequest(...)
  if err != nil {
    return err
  }
  resp, err := zipkin.TraceRequest(ctx, http.DefaultClient, req)
  ...
}
