I'm trying to setup buffalo to send data to AWS X-Ray. I am new to buffalo/go and I'm completely lost in the docs...
My actions.go
package actions
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/gobuffalo/buffalo"
"github.com/gobuffalo/envy"
"github.com/aws/aws-xray-sdk-go/xray"
contenttype "github.com/gobuffalo/mw-contenttype"
"github.com/gobuffalo/x/sessions"
"github.com/rs/cors"
)
var ENV = envy.Get("GO_ENV", "development")
var app *buffalo.App
func App() *buffalo.App {
if app == nil {
app = buffalo.New(buffalo.Options{
Env: ENV,
SessionStore: sessions.Null{},
PreWares: []buffalo.PreWare{
cors.Default().Handler,
},
SessionName: "__session",
})
app.Use(contenttype.Set("application/json"))
app.Use(XRayStart)
app.GET("/", HomeHandler)
}
return app
}
// XRayStart starts xray
func XRayStart(next buffalo.Handler) buffalo.Handler {
return func(c buffalo.Context) error {
fmt.Println("1")
h := xray.Handler(xray.NewFixedSegmentNamer("WordAPI"), buffalo.WrapBuffaloHandler(next))
fmt.Println(h)
err := next(c)
return err
}
}
func init() {
fmt.Println("init")
xray.Configure(xray.Config{
DaemonAddr: "127.0.0.1:2000", // default
ServiceVersion: "1.2.3",
})
}
When I curl I get the correct response from the HomeHandler, and the logs inside the middleware prints (h is not null). The init is also called correctly. On the deamon side I see nothing at all :(
Official docs have this sample code
func main() {
http.Handle("/", xray.Handler(xray.NewFixedSegmentNamer("myApp"), http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
w.Write([]byte("Hello!"))
})))
http.ListenAndServe(":8000", nil)
}
and I suppose my port is incorrect..
Any suggestion on how to proceed ?
thanks
h := xray.Handler(xray.NewFixedSegmentNamer("WordAPI"), buffalo.WrapBuffaloHandler(next))
The line creates an xray http handler but never used it. You can use Buffalo WrapHandler() to turn it back to a buffalo handler and listen to incoming request. So this will work:
app.GET("/",
buffalo.WrapHandler(xray.Handler(xray.NewFixedSegmentNamer("WordAPI"),
buffalo.WrapBuffaloHandler(HomeHandler))))
