HTTP Server Timings library for Spring Boot 3 projects - Java 17 compatible

This library is based on the HTTP Server Timings spec, which you can find here: https://www.w3.org/TR/server-timing/. The main idea is to be able to determine if any slow downs, bottlenecks or unexpected application issues happened for a request just by looking at the Network Tab on the browser, without the need to look at console logs or installing any tools.

Features

• Generate response header with traces that will be rendered by the client browser to analyze response times
• Use as annotation to trace a method, or inject the Tracing interface to trace a block of code

Instructions

• add the dependency from maven central:

        <dependency>
            <groupId>io.github.sercasti</groupId>
            <artifactId>spring-httpserver-timings-java17</artifactId>
            <version>0.0.1</version>
        </dependency>

• add these Beans to your spring config:

    @Bean
    protected Tracing tracing() {
        return TracingConfig.createTracing();
    }

    @Bean
    protected TracingFilter tracingFilter() {
        return new TracingFilter();
    }
    
    @Bean
    protected TracingInterceptor tracingInterceptor() {
        return new TracingInterceptor(tracing());
    }

Usage

• Use the @Traceable annotation around a method to generate a metric with the name of the method.
• or autowire/inject the Tracing interface and use it on a specific block of code

Example

• You can find a sample app using this library here: https://github.com/sercasti/spring-servertimings-example
