From the README
This repository contains Go packages for the client-side components of the Datadog product suite for Application Performance Monitoring, Continuous Profiling and Application Security Monitoring of Go applications.
The package
github.com/DataDog/dd-trace-go/v2/ddtrace/tracerallows you to trace any piece of your Go code, and commonly used Go libraries can be automatically traced thanks to our out-of-the-box integrations which can be found in the packagegithub.com/DataDog/dd-trace-go/v2/contrib.The package
github.com/DataDog/dd-trace-go/v2/profilerallows you to periodically collect and send Go profiles to the Datadog API.This module contains many packages, but most users should probably install the two packages below:
Additionally there are many contrib packages, published as nested modules, that can be installed to automatically instrument and trace commonly used Go libraries such as net/http, gorilla/mux or database/sql/v2
If you installed more packages than you intended, you can use
go mod tidyto remove any unused packages.
