Distributed Tracing with APM Workshop

This is a repository for a log workshop based on 2018 Dash APM Workshop made by Burningion.

Before the Workshop / Prerequisites

The workshop is scheduled for an hour and a half. In this short time frame, having prerequisites installed is crucial to maximize everyone's hands on time.

Please ensure you accomplished the following steps before the event:

1. Install Docker CE.

2. Install Docker Compose.

3. Clone this repository on your local machine: git clone https://github.com/l0k0ms/log-workshop-2.git

4. Pull Docker images to your local machine docker-compose up (this make take several minutes). When it finishes, load http://localhost:5000 in a private window and check that everything is up and running.

5. (Optional) The workshop itself is written in a Jupyter notebook, allowing you to mix and edit content locally. If you want to be able to add notes and save them locally, install Jupyter, and then open the log_workshop_instructions.ipynb by doing a jupyter-notebook in the workshop directory. This is completely optional, as Github has a built in viewer for Jupyter notebooks. Check the repository notebook.

Running the Application

1. If not done already create a Datadog account. A free trial should work to play with.

2. (Optional) - If the application was already running, stop it with the following command: docker-compose stop && docker-compose rm

3. Launch the application with the following parameters:

   POSTGRES_USER=postgres POSTGRES_PASSWORD=122356 DD_API_KEY=<DATADOG_API_KEY> docker-compose up

   Replace <DATADOG_API_KEY> with the API key provided for your Datadog platform.

4. Then open the web app at http://localhost:5000, create some pumps and cities.

5. Finally follow the instructions of this workshop.
