Using Brave in project without spring.

[Sandeep]

Hi,

I want to use Brave in my project.

Is it required project should be using spring?

I want to have distributed tracing across various backend components(scala project).

Which library would be good starting point and is there a simple example without spring dependency?

thanks,

Sandeep

Brave has no core dependency on spring or any other configuration library. Perhaps the example project misled you, as indeed that uses spring https://github.com/openzipkin/brave-webmvc-example

For example, this play project uses Brave under the covers https://github.com/bizreach/play-zipkin-tracing

​

Does this help?

Thank Adrian :)

Hi,

is it possible that I can use Brave to collect my own Trace, propagate them to another component and eventually send span to Zipkin. I couldn't find any simple example which does this. Maybe if you can point to the API reference that will also help.

The readme shows a good bit of this, have you seen it?

I got distributed trace working with akka-tracing lib after playing around with it.

I passed on Span information along with the kafka message. Used the same on Consumer end to create parent context.

Thanks for the Help Adrian.
