Here is help for htrace:
kalashnikov-17:go stack$ ./build/htrace --help
usage: htrace [<flags>] <command> [<flags>] [<args> ...]
The HTrace tracing utility.
Flags:
--help Show help.
--addr=0.0.0.0:9095 Server address.
Commands:
help [<command>]
Show help for a command.
version
Print the version of this program.
serverInfo
Print information retrieved from an htraced server.
findSpan --id=ID
Print information about a trace span with a given ID.
findChildren --id=ID [<flags>]
Print out the span IDs that are children of a given span ID.
writeSpans --json=JSON
Write spans to the server in JSON form.
What is a little odd to me is that required arguments are done as 'options'
or 'flags'. For example, findSpan requires that you pass an id but the id
is passed with the '--id=ID' format. Shouldn't it be 'findSpan ID' with
flags and options passed with '--...' format?
When I start htraced, it should print version and the port it is listening
on.
It looks like the serverInfo is gotten by doing a GET on /server/info yet I
write spans at /writeSpans. Shouldn't the span writing and seaching be
under a subdir at /spans: e.g. to write spans you'd do /spans/write and to
find you'd do /spans/find ?
When I send spans to htraced, it logs each it receives. Can I turn this
off? Can I turn on logging even more info like the total REST request
(optionally)?
