Configuring Traces for Go SDK

Configuring the Trace Plugin
You can configure the trace plugin using the following environment variables.
Set the variable below to true if you want to disable the trace plugin; the trace plugin is enabled by default.
Configuration of Trace Plugin
thundra_agent_lambda_trace_disable
Set the variable below to true if you want to disable monitoring of Lambda requests.
Configuration of Trace Request
thundra_agent_lambda_trace_request_skip
Set the variable below to true if you want to disable monitoring Lambda responses.
Configuration of Trace Response
thundra_agent_lambda_trace_response_skip
Configuring AWS SDK Trace
Thundra's Go agent provides you with the capability to trace AWS SDK by wrapping the session object that AWS SDK provides. You can easily start using it by simply wrapping your session objects as shown in the following code:
Go
package main
​
import (
	"github.com/aws/aws-lambda-go/lambda"
	"github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go/aws"
	"github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go/aws/session"
	"github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go/service/dynamodb"
	"github.com/thundra-io/thundra-lambda-agent-go/thundra"
	thundraaws "github.com/thundra-io/thundra-lambda-agent-go/wrappers/aws"
)
​
// Your lambda handler
func handler() (string, error) {
	// Create a new session object
	sess, _ := session.NewSession(&aws.Config{
		Region: aws.String("us-west-2")},
	)
	
	// Wrap it using the thundraaws.Wrap method
	sess = thundraaws.Wrap(sess)
​
	// Create a new client using the wrapped session
	svc := dynamodb.New(sess)
​
	// Use the client as normal, Thundra will automatically
	// create spans for the AWS SDK calls
	svc.PutItem(&dynamodb.PutItemInput{
		Item: map[string]*dynamodb.AttributeValue{
			"AlbumTitle": {
				S: aws.String("Somewhat Famous"),
			},
			"Artist": {
				S: aws.String("No One You Know"),
			},
			"SongTitle": {
				S: aws.String("Call Me Today"),
			},
		},
		ReturnConsumedCapacity: aws.String("TOTAL"),
		TableName:              aws.String("Music"),
	})
​
	return "Hello, Thundra!", nil
}
​
func main() {
	// Wrap your lambda handler with Thundra
	lambda.Start(thundra.Wrap(handler))
}
After you have wrapped the session object, everything else will be handled automatically. The spans representing AWS SDK calls will be shown in your trace chart.
Disabling AWS Integrations
Tracing AWS SDK responses is enabled by default, but this can also be disabled if needed through configuration. You just need to set the following environment variable to true:
Configuration of Disabling Aws Integrations
thundra_agent_lambda_trace_integrations_aws_disable
Masking SQS Messages
You can mask SQS messages sent on the client’s side, which calls AWS SDK. You just need to set the following environment variable to true:
Masking SQS Messages
thundra_agent_lambda_trace_integrations_aws_sqs_message_mask
Masking SNS Messages
You can mask SNS messages sent on the client’s side, which calls AWS SDK. You just need to set the following environment variable to true:
Masking SNS Messages
thundra_agent_lambda_trace_integrations_aws_sns_message_mask
Masking Lambda Payload
You can mask Lambda invocation payload on the client’s side, which calls AWS SDK. You just need to set the following environment variable to true.
Masking Lambda Payload
thundra_agent_lambda_trace_integrations_aws_lambda_payload_mask
Masking HTTP Body
You can mask an HTTP body on the client’s side, which calls AWS SDK. You just need to set the following environment variable to true:
Masking HTTP Body
thundra_agent_lambda_trace_integrations_aws_http_body_mask
