ls-trace-js


Datadog has generously announced the donation of their tracer libraries to the OpenTelemety, project. Auto-instrumentation is a core feature of these libraries, making it possible to create and collect telemetry data without needing to change your code. LightStep wants you to be able to use these libraries now! ls-trace-js is LightStep's fork of Datadog’s tracing client for Javascript. You can install and use it to take advantage of auto-instrumentation without waiting for OpenTelemetry. Each LightStep agent is “pinned” to a Datadog release and is fully supported by LightStep’s Customer Success team.

Getting Started

Development

Before contributing to this open source project, read our CONTRIBUTING.md.

Since this project supports multiple Node versions, using a version
manager such as nvm is recommended.

We use yarn for its workspace functionality, so make sure to install that as well.

To get started once you have Node and yarn installed, run:

``sh
$ yarn
`

$3

Before running the tests, the data stores need to be running.
The easiest way to start all of them is to use the provided
docker-compose configuration:

`sh
$ docker-compose up -d -V --remove-orphans --force-recreate
`

#### Unit Tests

To run the unit tests, use:

`sh
$ yarn test
`

To run the unit tests continuously in watch mode while developing, use:

`sh
$ yarn tdd
`

#### Memory Leaks

To run the memory leak tests, use:

`sh
$ yarn leak
`

Please note that memory leak tests only run on Node >=8.

$3

We use ESLint to make sure that new code is
conform to our coding standards.

To run the linter, use:

`sh
$ yarn lint
`

$3

We rely on CircleCI 2.0 for our tests. If you want to test how the CI behaves
locally, you can use the CircleCI Command Line Interface as described here:
https://circleci.com/docs/2.0/local-jobs/

After installing the circleci CLI, simply run one of the following:

`sh
$ circleci build --job lint
$ circleci build --job node-leaks
$ circleci build --job node-core-8
$ circleci build --job node-core-10
$ circleci build --job node-core-12
$ circleci build --job node-core-latest
`

$3

When two or more approaches must be compared, please write a benchmark
in the benchmark/index.js module so that we can keep track of the
most efficient algorithm. To run your benchmark, just:

`sh
$ yarn bench

`


$3


`sh
make proto
`

if you don't have required packages
`sh
make clone
`
