A sampler for zipkin

Description

This is a simple sampler for zipkin. It listens on a port and waits for spans to be sent to it. It collects the spans and sends them to the endpoint if the time of trace is greater than the time specified in the flag, otherwise it discards the trace.

go install github.com/eleven26/zipkin_sampler@v0.0.1
