This module contains KafkaSpanExporter, which is an implementation of the io.opentelemetry.sdk.trace.export.SpanExporter interface.

KafkaSpanExporter can be used for sending SpanData to a Kafka topic.

Usage

In order to instantiate a KafkaSpanExporter, you either need to pass a Kafka Producer or the configuration of a Kafka Producer together with key and value serializers. You also need to pass the topic to which the SpanData need to be sent. For a sample usage, see KafkaSpanExporterIntegrationTest.
