Usage
Please see the examples directory. Overall, an ExecutionContext is wrapped so the active Span can be captured and activated for a given Scala Future.
Create a TracedExecutionContext wrapping the actually used ExecutionContext, and pass it around when creating Futures:
// Instantiate tracer
val tracer: Tracer = ...
val ec: ExecutionContext = new TracedExecutionContext(executionContext, tracer);
Span Propagation
Future {
// The active Span at Future creation time, if any,
// will be captured and restored here.
tracer.activeSpan().setTag("status.code", getStatusCode())
}(ec)
Future.onComplete and other Future methods will capture too any active Span by the time they were registered, so you have to make sure that both happened under the same active Span/Scope for this to work smoothly.
Span lifetime handling is not done at the TracedExecutionContext, and hence explicit calls to Span.finish() must be put in place - usually either in the last Future/message block or in a onComplete callback function:
Future {
...
}(ec).onComplete { _ => {
tracer.activeSpan().finish()
}
}(ec)
Auto finish Span handling
Span auto-finish is supported through a reference-count system using the specific AutoFinishScopeManager -which needs to be provided at Tracer creation time-, along with using TracedAutoFinishExecutionContext:
val scopeManager = new AutoFinishScopeManager();
val tracer: Tracer = ??? // Use the created scopeManager here.
val ec = new TracedAutoFinishExecutionContext(executionContext, tracer)
...
val span = tracer.buildSpan("request").start()
val scope = tracer.activateSpan(span)
try {
Future {
// Span will be reactivated here
...
Future {
// Span will be reactivated here as well.
// By the time this future is done,
// the Span will be automatically finished.
} (ec)
} (ec)
} finally {
scope.close()
}
Reference count for Spans is set to 1 at creation, and is increased when registering onComplete, andThen, map, and similar Future methods - and is decreased upon having such function/callback executed:
Future {
...
}(ec)
.map {...}(ec)
.onComplete {
// No need to call `Span.finish()` here at all, as
// lifetime handling is done implicitly.
}(ec)
