OpenCensus Python exporter for Honeycomb

A simple exporter to translate OpenCensus span data into Honeycomb traces.

Example

import time
import os

from opencensus.trace import tracer as tracer_module
from ochoneycomb import HoneycombExporter

exporter = HoneycombExporter(writekey=os.getenv("HONEYCOMB_WRITEKEY"),
                             dataset=os.getenv("HONEYCOMB_DATASET"),
                             service_name="test-app")
tracer = tracer_module.Tracer(exporter=exporter)


def do_something_to_trace():
    time.sleep(1)


# Example for creating nested spans
with tracer.span(name='span1') as span1:
    do_something_to_trace()
    with tracer.span(name='span1_child1') as span1_child1:
        span1_child1.add_annotation("something")
        do_something_to_trace()
    with tracer.span(name='span1_child2') as span1_child2:
        do_something_to_trace()
with tracer.span(name='span2') as span2:
    do_something_to_trace()
