Simple example for tracing across multiple services

[luigi-bar]

Hi,
I would like to trace something like A-->B-->C (I am using flask) and, while I can trace the spans inside each service, I am unable to trace the full flow.
Do you have an example for this? I was unable to find anything in the docs...

Thanks!

@luigikitten Thanks for the feedback! I'll leave this issue open, since I think you have a good point that our docs need to be better about how to integrate this into a full system.

But for now, if you can hop in gitter (https://gitter.im/openzipkin/zipkin), someone can give you some more personal help.

You might also want to check out flask-zipkin, which should supply you with the server-side portion of tracing. You'll still need to propagate the headers on outgoing requests. We do this, for example, using swagger_zipkin to wrap our swagger RPC calls.

You can also try modifying this example app. https://github.com/openzipkin/pyramid_zipkin-example

I've built a simple Flask + py_zipkin demo here.
