| Building the HTrace Go code |
| =========================== |
| The htrace go code consists of 4 main parts: |
| * The "htraced" standalone server |
| This is a server which accepts trace spans, and services REST queries. |
| |
| * The "htrace" command-line program which can query the server |
| This is a simple command-line program which can query the htrace server. |
| |
| * The htraced Javascript Web UI |
| |
| * The htrace go client library (not yet implemented) |
| This is the equivalent of the Java HTrace client library, but written in Go. |
| |
| You can build all these parts simply by running "gobuild.sh". |
| The binaries will be created in bin/. |
| |
| Dependencies |
| ============ |
| You will need to install: |
| * The Go programming language |
| * The development package for leveldb (some Linux distros call this "leveldb-devel") containing libleveldb.so |
| |
| htraced requires libleveldb.so to be in your shared library path in order to run. |
| You can set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the path for this library, or simply install |
| libleveldb.so to your system library path. |
| |
| Testing |
| ======= |
| You can run the unit tests by running "./gobuild.sh test" |
