Manual tracing with Xray can be cumbersome and you don’t really need it. Here is how you can setup automatic mode up without a middleware or outside express.
So if you have a dockerized nodejs service running you can change the entrypoint of your service to something like this.
import AWSXRay from 'aws-xray-sdk-core';
AWSXRay.captureAWS(require('aws-sdk'));
AWSXRay.enableAutomaticMode();
var ns = AWSXRay.getNamespace();
ns.run(async function() {
var segment = new AWSXRay.Segment('Service Name');
AWSXRay.setSegment(segment);
/// Call your service code or entrypoint here
segment.close();
});
