[jira] [Commented] (HTTPCLIENT-1842) OpenTracing integration

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1842?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15981280#comment-15981280 ]

-----------------------------------------------

Pavol,
I am not quite sure I understand what you are proposing or requesting. Could you please clarify what kind of enhancement / changes you are requesting?  

As far as point 1 is concerned I am in process of rewriting HttpClient request execution pipeline. It is not yet in trunk but will be after HttpCore 5.0a3 release. 

With HttpClient 5.0 one would be able to add a custom execution interceptor at any point in the processing chain:

> Hello, 
> I am working on OpenTracing [1] integraton for {{HttpClient}} client. My current POC is in [2]. I have a couple of questions and suggestions for next version to make the tracing integration better and cleaner.
> First I was using interceptors but response interceptor is not invoked on exceptions e.g. {{UnknownHostException}}. 
> Now I decided to extend {{HttpClientBuilder}} and override {{decorateProtocolExec}} but the problem is that {{RedirectExec}} is added aftewards so tracing {{ClientExecChain}} gets called multiple times and should be only one.  Note that tracing {{ClientExecChain}} requires access to redirectStrategy/redirectCount/redirectDisabled to create only one span for the whole request (this makes the integration quite nasty).
> In general there are these requirements to make the integration work properly:
> 1. for the whole invocation call request and response interceptor only once, or be able to add tracing {{ClientExecChain}} as the last one in builder.
> 2. be able to access thread local variable from an interceptor/ClientExecChain to connect client span with a server span
> 3. be able to intercept thrown exceptios e.g. {{UnknownHostException}}
