Package brave.http

Class HttpServerHandler<Req,Resp>

java.lang.Object

brave.http.HttpServerHandler<Req,Resp>

Type Parameters:

Req - the native http request type of the server.

Resp - the native http response type of the server.

public final class HttpServerHandler<Req,Resp>
extends Object

This standardizes a way to instrument http servers, particularly in a way that encourages use of portable customizations via HttpServerParser.

This is an example of synchronous instrumentation:

 Span span = handler.handleReceive(request);
 Throwable error = null;
 try (Tracer.SpanInScope ws = tracer.withSpanInScope(span)) {
   // any downstream code can see Tracer.currentSpan() or use Tracer.currentSpanCustomizer()
   response = invoke(request);
 } catch (RuntimeException | Error e) {
   error = e;
   throw e;
 } finally {
   handler.handleSend(response, error, span);
 }

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
static HttpServerHandler<HttpServerRequest,HttpServerResponse>	create(HttpTracing httpTracing)
static <Req, Resp> HttpServerHandler<Req,Resp>	create(HttpTracing httpTracing, HttpServerAdapter<Req,Resp> adapter)	Deprecated. Since 5.7, use create(HttpTracing) as it is more portable.
Span	handleReceive(HttpServerRequest request)	Conditionally joins a span, or starts a new trace, depending on if a trace context was extracted from the request.
<C> Span	handleReceive(TraceContext.Extractor<C> extractor, C carrier, Req request)	Deprecated. Since 5.7, use handleReceive(HttpServerRequest)
Span	handleReceive(TraceContext.Extractor<Req> extractor, Req request)	Deprecated. Since 5.7, use handleReceive(HttpServerRequest)
void	handleSend(Resp response, Throwable error, Span span)	Finishes the server span after assigning it tags according to the response or error.

create

public static HttpServerHandler<HttpServerRequest,HttpServerResponse> create(HttpTracing httpTracing)

Since:

5.7

create

@Deprecated public static <Req, Resp> HttpServerHandler<Req,Resp> create(HttpTracing httpTracing, HttpServerAdapter<Req,Resp> adapter)

Deprecated.

Since 5.7, use create(HttpTracing) as it is more portable.

Since:

4.3

handleReceive

public Span handleReceive(HttpServerRequest request)

Conditionally joins a span, or starts a new trace, depending on if a trace context was extracted from the request. Tags are added before the span is started.

This is typically called before the request is processed by the actual library.

Since:

5.7

handleReceive

@Deprecated public Span handleReceive(TraceContext.Extractor<Req> extractor, Req request)

Deprecated.

Since 5.7, use handleReceive(HttpServerRequest)

Since:

4.3

handleReceive

@Deprecated public <C> Span handleReceive(TraceContext.Extractor<C> extractor, C carrier, Req request)

Deprecated.

Since 5.7, use handleReceive(HttpServerRequest)

Since:

4.3

handleSend

public void handleSend(@Nullable Resp response, @Nullable Throwable error, Span span)

Finishes the server span after assigning it tags according to the response or error.

This is typically called once the response headers are sent, and after the span is no longer in scope.

Since:

4.3
