// Package trace is a Google Stackdriver Trace library.
//
// This package is still experimental and subject to change.
//
// See https://cloud.google.com/trace/api/#data_model for a discussion of traces
// and spans.
//
// To initialize a client that connects to the Stackdriver Trace server, use the
// NewClient function. Generally you will want to do this on program
// initialization.
//
//   import "cloud.google.com/go/trace"
//   ...
//   traceClient, err = trace.NewClient(ctx, projectID)
//
// Incoming requests can contain a header which indicates that a trace is being
// performed for the corresponding operation.  The SpanFromRequest function will
// look for this header in an *http.Request.  If it is present, SpanFromRequest
// creates a span for the request; otherwise it returns nil.
//
//   func handler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
//     span := traceClient.SpanFromRequest(r)
//     defer span.Finish()
//     ...
//   }
//
// You can create a new span as a child of an existing span with NewChild.
//
//   childSpan := span.NewChild(name)
//   ...
//   childSpan.Finish()
//
// When sending an HTTP request to another server, NewRemoteChild will create
// a span to represent the time the current program waits for the request to
// complete, and attach a header to the outgoing request so that the trace will
// be propagated to the destination server.
//
//   childSpan := span.NewRemoteChild(&httpRequest)
//   ...
//   childSpan.Finish()
//
// Spans can contain a map from keys to values that have useful information
// about the span.  The elements of this map are called labels.  Some labels,
// whose keys all begin with the string "trace.cloud.google.com/", are set
// automatically in the following ways:
// - SpanFromRequest sets some labels to data about the incoming request.
// - NewRemoteChild sets some labels to data about the outgoing request.
// - Finish sets a label to a stack trace, if the stack trace option is enabled
//   in the incoming trace header.
// - The WithResponse option sets some labels to data about a response.
// You can also set labels using SetLabel.  If a label is given a value
// automatically and by SetLabel, the automatically-set value is used.
//
//   span.SetLabel(key, value)
//
// The WithResponse option can be used when Finish is called.
//
//   childSpan := span.NewRemoteChild(outgoingReq)
//   resp, err := http.DefaultClient.Do(outgoingReq)
//   ...
//   childSpan.Finish(trace.WithResponse(resp))
//
// When a span created by SpanFromRequest is finished, the finished spans in the
// corresponding trace -- the span itself and its descendants -- are uploaded
// to the Stackdriver Trace server using the *Client that created the span.
// Finish returns immediately, and uploading occurs asynchronously.  You can use
// the FinishWait function instead to wait until uploading has finished.
//
//   err := span.FinishWait()
//
// Using contexts to pass *trace.Span objects through your program will often
// be a better approach than passing them around explicitly.  This allows trace
// spans, and other request-scoped or part-of-request-scoped values, to be
// easily passed through API boundaries.  Various Google Cloud libraries will
// retrieve trace spans from contexts and automatically create child spans for
// API requests.
// See https://blog.golang.org/context for more discussion of contexts.
// A derived context containing a trace span can be created using NewContext.
//
//   span := traceClient.SpanFromRequest(r)
//   ctx = trace.NewContext(ctx, span)
//
// The span can be retrieved from a context elsewhere in the program using
// FromContext.
//
//   func foo(ctx context.Context) {
//     newSpan := trace.FromContext(ctx).NewChild("in foo")
//     defer newSpan.Finish()
//     ...
//   }
//
// Client.SpanFromRequest returns a nil *Span if there is no trace header in
// the request.  All of the exported functions on *Span do nothing when the
// *Span is nil, so you do not need to guard against nil receivers yourself.
//
// SpanFromRequest also returns nil if the *Client is nil, so you can disable
// tracing by not initializing your *Client variable.
