foxx-tracer-reporter-datadog

A reporter for the foxx-tracer-collector service, that pushes spans to Datadog.

Installation

See the collector docs for detailed instruction docs. To quickly get up and running, run the following inside the collector's source root:

npx grunt reporter:add --pkg=@recallgraph/foxx-tracer-reporter-datadog --namespace=datadog 

Configuration

This reporter has a single configuration parameter, viz, the location of the Datadog Agent to which it should report span records. If the reporter is installed under the namespace datadog, then the manifest.json of the collector would have a section like:

{
    "configuration": {
        "reporters-datadog": {
            "type": "json",
            "required": true,
            "default": {
                "dd-agent-url": "http://localhost:8126/v0.4/traces"
            },
            "description": "Settings for the datadog reporter."
        }
    }
}

You can change the dd-agent-url parameter to value if needed.
