The full power of Honeycomb is unlocked by proper instrumentation, especially at the code level. The examples in this repository will help guide you along the way to unlocking this power for yourself by showing you how instrumentation is meant to be done.
Most of the top level directories in this repository correspond to an example which demonstrates instrumentation using Honeycomb and sample queries to help you along. The current examples are:
| Directory | Meant to Teach | Description |
|---|---|---|
buildevents |
Manual tracing | A small binary to help create traces out of Travis-CI builds, visualizing each step and command as spans within the trace. |
dotnet-core-webapi |
Custom instrumentation with .NET | A barebones web API with a HoneycombMiddleware.cs for capturing HTTP metadata. |
golang-gatekeeper |
Go Beeline and custom instrumentation | An API server paired with the Gatekeeper Tour |
golang-ratelimiting-proxy |
Go Beeline and cross-service tracing | A rate limiting, tarpitting proxy, intended to be put in front of a web server. |
golang-webapp |
libhoney-go | A two-tier web application (Go+MySQL) which is a Twitter clone. |
golang-wiki-tracing |
Manual Tracing with Go | A simple wiki (Go) manually instrumented for tracing. |
