automatic tracer #129

Closed naseemkullah closed 5 years ago

naseemkullah commented 5 years ago

Would it be possible to have an automatic tracer that traces express, redis, mysql and other common apps much like those offered by vendors? Without having to explicitly declare spans.

Ideally we can build off https://github.com/RisingStack/opentracing-auto ... they seem to have the right idea, but repo seems a little under maintained.

This will be implemented in OpenTelemetry which will supersede OpenTracing in the coming months. It will have an OpenTracing compatibility layer meaning you could benefit from auto instrumentation and other advanced features of OpenTelemetry without changing your existing OpenTracing code.

You can follow progress in the opentelemetry-js repository.
