Docs Crates.io

tracing-layer-slack provides a Layer implementation for sending tracing events to Slack.

Synopsis

SlackLayer sends POST requests via tokio and reqwest to a Slack Webhook URL for each new tracing event. The format of the text field is statically defined.

This layer also looks for an optional JsonStorageLayer extension on the parent span of each event. This extension may contain additional contextual information for the parent span of an event, which is included into the Slack message.

Installation

Configure the dependencies and pull directly from GitHub:

[dependencies]
tokio = "1.0"
tracing = "0.1"
tracing-layer-slack = "0.6"

Examples

See the full list of examples in examples/.

Simple

In this simple example, a layer is created using Slack configuration in the environment. An orphaned event (one with no parent span) and an event occurring within a span are created in three separate futures, and a number of messages are sent quickly to Slack.

Slack Messages

This screenshots shows the first three Slack messages sent while running this example. More messages are sent but were truncated from these images.

Slack Blocks

By default, messages are sent using Slack Blocks. Here's an example:

Slack Text

By disabling the default features of this crate (and therefore disabling the blocks feature), you can revert to the older format which does not use the block kit.

Code example

Run this example locally using the following commands:

$ git clone https://github.com/seanpianka/tracing-layer-slack.git
$ cd tracing-layer-slack
$ cargo run --example simple

You must have Slack configuration exported in the environment.
