Description

I tried to create spans using OpenTelemetry, tonic, and tower-http. However, I couldn't create a parent span at the middleware.

I prepared my simple example.

I expected to see one span.

P.S. Maybe I did something wrong.

I think the issue is related to tonic using tower::buffer::Buffer internally and perhaps not propagating the spans correctly but have to do some digging to make sure.

@davidpdrsn tower::buffer::Buffer is supposed to propagate spans https://docs.rs/tower/latest/src/tower/buffer/service.rs.html#148-151, so I'd be surprised if that's the issue

Ah okay. Hm then I dunno what's wrong here 😅

tower::buffer::Buffer is propagating a tracing::Span, but @arttet is creating an OpenTelemetry span. @arttet: my suggestion is to not directly create OpenTelemetry Spans but instead creating tracing::Spans. tracing_opentelemetry will handle the conversion for you and propagate things correctly.
