.TH "COREDNS-TRACE" 7 "March 2021" "CoreDNS" "CoreDNS Plugins"
.SH "NAME"
.PP
\fItrace\fP - enables OpenTracing-based tracing of DNS requests as they go through the plugin chain.
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
With \fItrace\fP you enable OpenTracing of how a request flows through CoreDNS. Enable the \fIdebug\fP
plugin to get logs from the trace plugin.
.SH "SYNTAX"
.PP
The simplest form is just:
.PP
.RS
.nf
trace [ENDPOINT\-TYPE] [ENDPOINT]
.fi
.RE
.IP \(bu 4
\fBENDPOINT-TYPE\fP is the type of tracing destination. Currently only \fB\fCzipkin\fR and \fB\fCdatadog\fR are supported.
Defaults to \fB\fCzipkin\fR.
.IP \(bu 4
\fBENDPOINT\fP is the tracing destination, and defaults to \fB\fClocalhost:9411\fR. For Zipkin, if
\fBENDPOINT\fP does not begin with \fB\fChttp\fR, then it will be transformed to \fB\fChttp://ENDPOINT/api/v1/spans\fR.
.PP
With this form, all queries will be traced.
.PP
Additional features can be enabled with this syntax:
.PP
.RS
.nf
trace [ENDPOINT\-TYPE] [ENDPOINT] {
every AMOUNT
service NAME
client\_server
datadog\_analytics\_rate RATE
}
.fi
.RE
.IP \(bu 4
\fB\fCevery\fR \fBAMOUNT\fP will only trace one query of each AMOUNT queries. For example, to trace 1 in every
100 queries, use AMOUNT of 100. The default is 1.
.IP \(bu 4
\fB\fCservice\fR \fBNAME\fP allows you to specify the service name reported to the tracing server.
Default is \fB\fCcoredns\fR.
.IP \(bu 4
\fB\fCclient_server\fR will enable the \fB\fCClientServerSameSpan\fR OpenTracing feature.
.IP \(bu 4
\fB\fCdatadog_analytics_rate\fR \fBRATE\fP will enable trace analytics
\[la]https://docs.datadoghq.com/tracing/app_analytics\[ra] on the traces sent
from \fI0\fP to \fI1\fP, \fI1\fP being every trace sent will be analyzed. This is a datadog only feature
(\fBENDPOINT-TYPE\fP needs to be \fB\fCdatadog\fR)
.SH "ZIPKIN"
.PP
You can run Zipkin on a Docker host like this:
.PP
.RS
.nf
docker run \-d \-p 9411:9411 openzipkin/zipkin
.fi
.RE
.PP
Note the zipkin provider does not support the v1 API since coredns 1.7.1.
.SH "EXAMPLES"
.PP
Use an alternative Zipkin address:
.PP
.RS
.nf
trace tracinghost:9253
.fi
.RE
.PP
or
.PP
.RS
.nf
\&. {
trace zipkin tracinghost:9253
}
.fi
.RE
.PP
If for some reason you are using an API reverse proxy or something and need to remap
the standard Zipkin URL you can do something like:
.PP
.RS
.nf
trace http://tracinghost:9411/zipkin/api/v1/spans
.fi
.RE
.PP
Using DataDog:
.PP
.RS
.nf
trace datadog localhost:8126
.fi
.RE
.PP
Trace one query every 10000 queries, rename the service, and enable same span:
.PP
.RS
.nf
trace tracinghost:9411 {
every 10000
service dnsproxy
client\_server
}
.fi
.RE
.SH "SEE ALSO"
.PP
