Spring-boot
This project provides a simple API using Spring Boot. The framework is supported and auto-instrumentation is used to trace the endpoints.
Run the demo
Prerequisites
Be sure to build the project so that the latest version of dd-trace-java components are used. You can build
all libraries and examples launching from the dd-trace-java root folder:
./gradlew clean shadowJar
Then you can launch the Datadog agent as follows:
cd dd-trace-examples/spring-boot-jdbc
DD_API_KEY=<your_datadog_api_key> docker-compose up -d
A valid DD_API_KEY is required to post collected traces to the Datadog backend.
Run the application
To launch the application, just:
./gradlew bootRun
The bootRun Gradle command appends automatically the -javaagent argument, so that you don't need to specify
the path of the Java Agent. Gradle executes the :dd-trace-examples:spring-boot-jdbc:bootRun task until you
stop it.
Generate traces
Once the Gradle task is running. Go to the following urls:
Then get back to Datadog and wait a bit to see a trace coming.
Auto-instrumentation with the dd-trace-agent
The instrumentation is entirely done by the datadog agent which embed a set of rules that automatically recognizes & instruments:
- The java servlet filters
- The JDBC driver
The Java Agent embeds the OpenTracing Java Agent.
Note for JDBC tracing configuration
JDBC is not automatically instrumented by the Java Agent, so we changed the application.properties
file to use the OpenTracing Driver. Without this step in your
applications, the JDBC driver will not be instrumented.
