Overview

This example shows how to use @opentelemetry/sdk-trace-base to instrument a simple Node.js application - e.g. a batch job.

Our example will export spans data simultaneously on Console and Jaeger, however you can run your code anywhere and can use any exporter that OpenTelemetry supports.

Installation

# from this directory
npm install

(Optional) Setup Jaeger Tracing: needs to be running on localhost port 16686.

Run the Application

# from this directory
npm start

Jaeger UI

Open the Jaeger UI in your browser http://localhost:16686

Select basic-service under Service Name and click on Find Traces.

Click on the trace to view its details.
