# obz-jaeger: Jaeger Provider ## Quick Reference | Field | Value | |------------------|-------------------------------------------------| | Aliases | `jg`, `jaeger` | | Signal | Trace | | Query language | None (query is a service name) | | Auth | Bearer token or Basic auth | | Provider flags | None | | Supported cmds | search, get, services, operations | ## Supported Commands ### Core trace commands ``` obz trace search # Search traces by service name obz trace get # Retrieve a single trace by ID ``` ### Extension commands ``` obz trace services # List all known service names obz trace operations # List operations for a given service (requires --service) ``` ## Authentication Configure auth in `config.yaml` under `providers.<name>.auth`. Supports bearer token, basic auth, or no auth. ```yaml # config.yaml providers: jg: endpoint: http://localhost:16686 auth: token: ${env:JAEGER_TOKEN} ``` Then query with just `-p`: ```bash obz trace search -p jg -q 'frontend' --from now-1h ``` ## Query Format The `-q` value is a plain service name. Jaeger doesn't have a structured trace query language for searches. ```bash obz trace search -p jg -q 'frontend' --from now-1h ``` ## Examples **Search traces for a service**: ```bash obz trace search -p jg -q 'frontend' --from now-1h ``` **Retrieve a specific trace by ID**: ```bash obz trace get -p jg abc123def456 ``` **List all services**: ```bash obz trace services -p jg ``` **List operations for a service**: ```bash obz trace operations -p jg --service frontend ``` ## Jaeger vs VictoriaTraces Both providers speak the same Jaeger HTTP Query API and expose the same set of commands. The key difference is the backend: | Aspect | Jaeger | VictoriaTraces | |--------------------|----------------------|----------------------| | Storage | Configurable | Built-in | | Default port | 16686 | 10428 | | API compatibility | Native | Jaeger-compatible | Choose `jg` when pointing at a standalone Jaeger deployment. Choose `vt` for VictoriaTraces.
