Improvement of agent and collector tags documentation
Improvement of agent and collector tags documentation
Problem - what in Jaeger blocks you from solving the requirement?
There is no description in the CLI documentation (https://www.jaegertracing.io/docs/1.25/cli/) that environment variables and their value can also be accessed for the agent and collector tags.
The deployment documentation (https://www.jaegertracing.io/docs/1.25/deployment/#agent-level-tags) describes this feature.
I suggest to include this feature documentation in the CLI documentation as well. Alternatively, you could also link to the deployment documentation in the CLI documentation.
@pbdger, I believe the CLI docs are intentionally meant to be quite general and apply to all CLI parameters.
https://www.jaegertracing.io/docs/1.25/deployment/#agent-level-tags provides guidance on a capability that is specific to the --agent.tags flag, i.e. making environment variables accessible from a flag value.
As such, I think the documentation here is appropriate unless if I misunderstood something and if so, please provide a PR and we can discuss your suggestion there.
