JAEGER_REPORTER_FLUSH_INTERVAL

[elu...@gmail.com]

Hi,

I want to be able to buffer some spans after a client is started while waiting for the agents (daemonset) to be installed.

I'm trying to use the JAEGER_REPORTER_FLUSH_INTERVAL environment variable to change the flush interval from default 1s to a higher value e.g. 1m. However whatever value I set flushing is still done at the default 1s interval.

The jaegercfg.FromEnv() is used at initialization and I have verified that it works by testing with other environment variables.

Why is this not working?

Hi

I have been able to change the flush interval using direct setting. It seems to be something wrong with the environment handling in Jaeger for this parameter. I have verified that other settings can be done using environment variables. I have for example tested the JAEGER_DISABLED setting and it works fine.

Would you be able to open an issue in the Java Client repository? Bonus
points if you can open a PR with the fix.

Hi Juca,

I have found this problem when using the Go client. I have not checked if there is a similar problem with the Java client (or any other client).

I have not done any "fix" for this. What I have done is to verify that configuration using environment variables in general is working by trying a few other variables. I have tested for example JAEGER_DISABLED and that variable is working but JAEGER_REPORTER_FLUSH_INTERVAL is not.

My workaround is to set BufferFlushInterval directly in the ReporterConfig structure when initializing the Jaeger tracer.

I can write a PR if you please can give a link to where PR reporting for the Go client is done.

Sorry, for some reason, I thought you were using the Java Client.
Please, use this repository to report the issue and send the PR:
