Jaeger Laravel Demo

Please check the details at my blog post.

A simple demo application showing how to integrate the distributed tracing system Jaeger with a Laravel app.

First start the application and install the dependencies:

docker-compose up -d
docker-compose exec php bash
composer install
cp .env.example .env
php artisan key:generate

Access the following urls in your browser:

• http://jaeger-demo.localhost
• http://jaeger-demo.localhost/error
• http://jaeger-demo.localhost/really-long-request

Then go to http://jaeger-ui.localhost and check the traces.

I keep the changes in the AppServiceProvider.php and web.php for brevity.

Try to change the search options, fill the Tags field with something like response_status=200, or error=true, uuid=some-request-uuid to test it out.
