Interface SpanProcessor

SpanProcessor is the interface Tracer SDK uses to allow synchronous hooks for when a Span is started or when a Span is ended.

interface SpanProcessor {
    forceFlush(): Promise<void>;
    onEnd(span: node.ReadableSpan): void;
    onStart(span: node.Span, parentContext: @opentelemetry/api.Context): void;
    shutdown(): Promise<void>;
}
