Hi jaeger community,

I have a client side nodejs application that talks to server. I have finished instrumentation of all the server side in go, and it's working properly.

Now I want to instrument the client side app with jaeger nodejs client. Here are my questions:

* Considering the client side app is distributed to end user, how do I set my up jaeger-agent and jaeger-collector to accept the traces from client side?

* How to configure the node client to talk to an agent or collector in nodejs? I cannot find the configuration in jaeger-node-client readme.

Best regards

I think the OP is specific to Node.js, not the browser.

Looks like the agent can be configured via config.report.agentHost and config.reporter.agentPort:

https://github.com/jaegertracing/jaeger-client-node/blob/master/src/configuration.js#L107,L111

Yuri or Won, can you confirm?

Thanks,

Joe

Hi Joe and Yuri,

The use case I am having is indeed to send traces from the browser.

Based on the JIRA issue Yuri posted earlier, looks like we can use zipkin-js for now. But does that mean I need to change the downstream tracing client to zipkin as well, or does the jaeger golang client can generate compatible headers?

Also, I know this is probably very specific to me, but it will be awesome if the js client can be compatible with TypeScript.

Best regards,

Hechen Gao
