java.lang.Object
- io.opentelemetry.sdk.trace.export.SimpleSpanProcessor

All Implemented Interfaces:

SpanProcessor, Closeable, AutoCloseable
```
public final class SimpleSpanProcessor
extends Object
implements SpanProcessor
```
An implementation of the SpanProcessor that converts the ReadableSpan to SpanData and passes it directly to the configured exporter.
This processor will cause all spans to be exported directly as they finish, meaning each export request will have a single span. Most backends will not perform well with a single span per request so unless you know what you're doing, strongly consider using BatchSpanProcessor instead, including in special environments such as serverless runtimes. SimpleSpanProcessor is generally meant to for logging exporters only.

Method Summary

All Methods Static Methods Instance Methods Concrete Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`static SpanProcessor`	`create(SpanExporter exporter)`	Returns a new `SimpleSpanProcessor` which exports spans to the `SpanExporter` synchronously.
`io.opentelemetry.sdk.common.CompletableResultCode`	`forceFlush()`	Processes all span events that have not yet been processed.
`boolean`	`isEndRequired()`	Returns `true` if this `SpanProcessor` requires end events.
`boolean`	`isStartRequired()`	Returns `true` if this `SpanProcessor` requires start events.
`void`	`onEnd(ReadableSpan span)`	Called when a `Span` is ended, if the `Span.isRecording()` returns true.
`void`	`onStart(io.opentelemetry.context.Context parentContext, ReadWriteSpan span)`	Called when a `Span` is started, if the `Span.isRecording()` returns true.
`io.opentelemetry.sdk.common.CompletableResultCode`	`shutdown()`	Processes all span events that have not yet been processed and closes used resources.

public static SpanProcessor create(SpanExporter exporter)

    Returns a new SimpleSpanProcessor which exports spans to the SpanExporter synchronously.
    This processor will cause all spans to be exported directly as they finish, meaning each export request will have a single span. Most backends will not perform well with a single span per request so unless you know what you're doing, strongly consider using BatchSpanProcessor instead, including in special environments such as serverless runtimes.

  - onStart
```
public void onStart(io.opentelemetry.context.Context parentContext,
                    ReadWriteSpan span)
```
    Description copied from interface: SpanProcessor
    
    Called when a Span is started, if the Span.isRecording() returns true.
    This method is called synchronously on the execution thread, should not throw or block the execution thread.
    
    Specified by:
    
    onStart in interface SpanProcessor
    
    Parameters:
    
    parentContext - the parent Context of the span that just started.
    
    span - the ReadableSpan that just started.
  - isStartRequired
```
public boolean isStartRequired()
```
    Description copied from interface: SpanProcessor
    
    Returns true if this SpanProcessor requires start events.
    
    Specified by:
    
    isStartRequired in interface SpanProcessor
    
    Returns:
    
    true if this SpanProcessor requires start events.
  - onEnd
```
public void onEnd(ReadableSpan span)
```
    Description copied from interface: SpanProcessor
    
    Called when a Span is ended, if the Span.isRecording() returns true.
    This method is called synchronously on the execution thread, should not throw or block the execution thread.
    
    Specified by:
    
    onEnd in interface SpanProcessor
    
    Parameters:
    
    span - the ReadableSpan that just ended.
  - isEndRequired
```
public boolean isEndRequired()
```
    Description copied from interface: SpanProcessor
    
    Returns true if this SpanProcessor requires end events.
    
    Specified by:
    
    isEndRequired in interface SpanProcessor
    
    Returns:
    
    true if this SpanProcessor requires end events.
  - shutdown
```
public io.opentelemetry.sdk.common.CompletableResultCode shutdown()
```
    Description copied from interface: SpanProcessor
    
    Processes all span events that have not yet been processed and closes used resources.
    
    Specified by:
    
    shutdown in interface SpanProcessor
    
    Returns:
    
    a CompletableResultCode which completes when shutdown is finished.
  - forceFlush
```
public io.opentelemetry.sdk.common.CompletableResultCode forceFlush()
```
    Description copied from interface: SpanProcessor
    
    Processes all span events that have not yet been processed.
    
    Specified by:
    
    forceFlush in interface SpanProcessor
    
    Returns:
    
    a CompletableResultCode which completes when currently queued spans are finished processing.
