<br>
I'm looking into writing a module that enables Varnish for distributed<br>
tracing using the OpenTracing project [<a href="http://opentracing.io" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">opentracing.io</a>]. This requires<br>
invoking code at the beginning of a request to start a span and insert<br>
tracing context into the request's headers and invoking code after a<br>
request's been processed to finish the span and measure how long it<br>
took to process.<br>
<br>
I recently did a similar project for nginx<br>
[<a href="http://github.com/rnburn/nginx-opentracing" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">github.com/rnburn/nginx-opent<wbr>racing</a>]. Nginx provides an<br>
NGX_HTTP_LOG_PHASE [<a href="http://www.nginxguts.com/2011/01/phases/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">www.nginxguts.com/2011/01/pha<wbr>ses/</a>] that allows you<br>
to set up handlers run after requests are serviced. Can anything<br>
equivalent be done using VCL?<br>
<br>
I image you could accomplish this by subscribing and regularly reading<br>
from Varnish's shared memory log, but I'd much rather do it directly<br>
if possible.<br>
<br>
Thanks, Ryan<br>
