Zipkin 3.1
Zipkin 3.1 includes our first additional features since the 3.0 platform update. Notably gRPC span collection is enabled by default, Eureka registration includes more properties, and you can now disable the UI independent of the REST API. Those using kubernetes should have a second look at our helm chart which is recently renovated as well!
While most won't see this, we'd like to give a special shout out to @SamTV12345 for helping renovate our javascript build. It was Sam's first change in the project and quite a big one. We'd like to thank all the users for your feedback and the continued support from our all volunteer team, notably @reta and @anuraaga who've stuck here with you so long.
Here are the changes end users might notice
COLLECTOR_GRPC_ENABLEDis now true by default, accepting spans from the zipkin.proto3.SpanService/Report service hosted on the same HTTP port as the normal API (default 9411)- Eureka registration now populates the
homePageUrlandstatusPageUrlfields, the latter used in the spring-cloud-netflix UI. This was thanks to upstream changes in Armeria driven by @minwoox - New
UI_ENABLEDfor users who wish to expose the query API, but not host the javascript UI.
Here are the build related changes:
- UI build now uses vite. @SamTV12345 was the MVP of this change, which eliminated a build-time CVE. This was a quite a lot of work, and we're grateful for Sam's help. We also appreciate others work on this, too, notably @anuraaga who advised and pitched in a test migration PR.
- @reta switched us to SLF4J 2.0, with heaps of thanks to @wilkinsona who helped us come to the same page on what versions do what.
- our zipkin-slim image now includes netty tcnative libraries.
Thank folks who helped with changes you want and don't forget to star the project if you're happy with our continued efforts! If you'd like to get in touch, please chat on gitter. See you next release!
