Marcus Efraimsson 3e385763c5 Tracing: Improve HTTP request/middleware spans and standalone apiserver (#85715)
Fixes so that auth middleware trace/span doesn't wrap the next handlers.
Allow tracing service name to be overridden in standalone apiserver.
Change k8s api tracing operation name to KubernetesAPI from 
grafana-apiserver (which is the service name)

Grafana Kubernetes compatible API Server

Basic Setup

[feature_toggles]
kubernetesPlaylists = true

Start Grafana:

make run

Enable dual write to etcd

Start etcd:

make devenv sources=etcd

Set storage type and etcd server address in custom.ini:

[grafana-apiserver]
storage_type = etcd
etcd_servers = 127.0.0.1:2379

Enable dual write to JSON files:

Set storage type:

[grafana-apiserver]
storage_type = file

Objects will be written to disk under the {data.path}/grafana-apiserver/ directory.

For example:

data/grafana-apiserver
├── grafana.kubeconfig
└── playlist.grafana.app
    └── playlists
        └── default
            └── hi.json

Enable aggregation

See aggregator/README.md for more information.

kubectl access

For kubectl to work, grafana needs to run over https. To simplify development, you can use:

app_mode = development

[feature_toggles]
grafanaAPIServerEnsureKubectlAccess = true 
kubernetesPlaylists = true

This will create a development kubeconfig and start a parallel ssl listener. It can be registered by navigating to the root grafana folder, then running:

export KUBECONFIG=$PWD/data/grafana-apiserver/grafana.kubeconfig
kubectl api-resources

Grafana API Access

The Kubernetes compatible API can be accessed using existing Grafana AuthN at: http://localhost:3000/apis.

The equivalent openapi docs can be seen in http://localhost:3000/swagger, select the relevant API from the dropdown in the upper right.
