Zipkin Opentracing Playground

This is a repo full of examples with zipkin opentracing compatible APIs that I want to use for a talk of mine about client side tracing.

Start

If you just want a bunch of services you can interact and play with, try running docker-compose up, this will spawn you these services:

• Zipkin: 9411
• ID-Service:
  • alfred-id: 3001
  • batman-id: 3002
  • catwoman-id: 3003
• Spread-Service
  • spread-daenerys: 4001
  • spread-eddard-stark: 4002

ID-Service

The idea is to have a service that just returns what is posted to it after a timespan, so that I can easily setup different scenarios from the call side without the need to deploy a different service. To make the graphs more interesting a param also controls how long the service should take.

{
    "body": "42",
    "delay": 200
}

Spread-Service

To have nicer graphs this service gets a set of endpoints to call with an array like this:

[{
    "endpoint": "http://foo.bar.com/nice",
    "body": "{\"result\": \"id-42\"}",
    "delay": 800
}]
