This exporter is being deprecated and will be removed in July 2023 as Jaeger support OTLP directly.

This exporter supports sending trace data to Jaeger over Thrift HTTP.

WARNING: The Jaeger gRPC Exporter is the recommended one for exporting traces from an OpenTelemetry Collector to Jaeger. This Jaeger Thrift Exporter should only be used to export traces to a Jaeger Collector that is unable to expose the gRPC API.

Configuration

The following settings are required:

• endpoint (no default): target to which the exporter is going to send Jaeger trace data, using the Thrift HTTP protocol.

The following settings can be optionally configured:

• timeout (default = 5s): the maximum time to wait for a HTTP request to complete
• headers (no default): headers to be added to the HTTP request

Example:

exporters:
  jaeger_thrift:
    endpoint: "http://jaeger.example.com/api/traces"
    timeout: 2s
    headers:
      added-entry: "added value"
      dot.test: test

The full list of settings exposed for this exporter are documented here with detailed sample configurations here.

This exporter also offers proxy support as documented here.
