OpenTracing::Any(3)

💖 NAME 💖

OpenTracing::Any - application tracing. that's the name, that's the vibe, no cap 💅✨ this is the OpenTracing::Any(3) page bestie, and it's literally all about tracing your app.

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

okay so here's the little demo, look:

use OpenTracing::Any qw($tracer);
{
 my $span = $tracer->span(operation_name => 'whatever');
 $span->add_tag(xyz => 'abc');
 sleep 3;
}
# at this point the span will be finished and have an approximate timing of ~3s

see that comment at the bottom? at that point the span will be finished and have an approximate timing of ~3s. slay ⏱️💖

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

this provides a tracer to the current package. by default it will be given the package variable name $tracer, but you can override this by providing a different name:

use OpenTracing::Any qw($renamed_tracer_variable);
$renamed_tracer_variable->span(...);

so yeah, $renamed_tracer_variable->span(...); is right there — same tracer energy, just a different variable name 🫶
