# Set up distributed tracing with Zipkin
|
|
|
|
Dapr integrates seamlessly with OpenTelemetry for telemetry and tracing. It is recommended to run Dapr with tracing enabled for any production scenario. Since Dapr uses OpenTelemetry, you can configure various exporters for tracing and telemetry data based on your environment, whether it is running in the cloud or on-premises.
|
|
|
|
## How to configure distributed tracing with Zipkin on Kubernetes
|
|
|
|
The following steps will show you how to configure Dapr to send distributed tracing data to Zipkin running as a container in your Kubernetes cluster, and how to view them.
|
|
|
|
### Setup
|
|
|
|
First, deploy Zipkin:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
kubectl run zipkin --image openzipkin/zipkin --port 9411
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Create a Kubernetes Service for the Zipkin pod:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
kubectl expose deploy zipkin --type ClusterIP --port 9411
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Next, create the following YAML files locally:
|
|
|
|
* zipkin.yaml
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
apiVersion: dapr.io/v1alpha1
|
|
kind: Component
|
|
metadata:
|
|
name: zipkin
|
|
spec:
|
|
type: exporters.zipkin
|
|
metadata:
|
|
- name: enabled
|
|
value: "true"
|
|
- name: exporterAddress
|
|
value: "http://zipkin.default.svc.cluster.local:9411/api/v2/spans"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* tracing.yaml
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
apiVersion: dapr.io/v1alpha1
|
|
kind: Configuration
|
|
metadata:
|
|
name: tracing
|
|
spec:
|
|
tracing:
|
|
enabled: true
|
|
expandParams: true
|
|
includeBody: true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Finally, deploy the Dapr configurations:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
kubectl apply -f tracing.yaml
|
|
kubectl apply -f zipkin.yaml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In order to enable this configuration for your Dapr sidecar, add the following annotation to your pod spec template:
|
|
|
|
```yml
|
|
annotations:
|
|
dapr.io/config: "tracing"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
That's it! your sidecar is now configured for use with Open Census and Zipkin.
|
|
|
|
### Viewing Tracing Data
|
|
|
|
To view traces, connect to the Zipkin Service and open the UI:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
kubectl port-forward svc/zipkin 9411:9411
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
On your browser, go to ```http://localhost:9411``` and you should see the Zipkin UI.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## How to configure distributed tracing with Zipkin when running in stand-alone mode
|
|
|
|
For standalone mode, create an Dapr Configuration CRD file locally and reference it with the Dapr CLI.
|
|
|
|
1. Create the following YAML files:
|
|
|
|
* zipkin.yaml
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
apiVersion: dapr.io/v1alpha1
|
|
kind: Component
|
|
metadata:
|
|
name: zipkin
|
|
spec:
|
|
type: exporters.zipkin
|
|
metadata:
|
|
- name: enabled
|
|
value: "true"
|
|
- name: exporterAddress
|
|
value: "http://localhost:9411/api/v2/spans"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* tracing.yaml
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
apiVersion: dapr.io/v1alpha1
|
|
kind: Configuration
|
|
metadata:
|
|
name: tracing
|
|
spec:
|
|
tracing:
|
|
enabled: true
|
|
expandParams: true
|
|
includeBody: true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. Copy *zipkin.yaml* to a *components* folder under the same folder where you run you application.
|
|
|
|
3. Launch Zipkin using Docker:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker run -d -p 9411:9411 openzipkin/zipkin
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
3. Launch Dapr with the `--config` param:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
dapr run --app-id mynode --app-port 3000 --config ./tracing.yaml node app.js
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Tracing Configuration
|
|
|
|
The `tracing` section under the `Configuration` spec contains the following properties:
|
|
|
|
```yml
|
|
tracing:
|
|
enabled: true
|
|
expandParams: true
|
|
includeBody: true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The following table lists the different properties.
|
|
|
|
Property | Type | Description
|
|
---- | ------- | -----------
|
|
enabled | bool | Set tracing to be enabled or disabled
|
|
expandParams | bool | When true, expands parameters passed to HTTP endpoints
|
|
includeBody | bool | When true, includes the request body in the tracing event
|
