OpenTracing compatibility (question)

See original GitHub issue

OpenTracing website proclaims that Zipkin is one of the supported implementations. However, the interface of the tracer provided by zipkin does not seem to be any close to the official Javascript OpenTracing API and it fails with the TypeError: Uncaught error: tracer.startSpan is not a function.

Am I missing something fundamental (quite possible), or is openzipkin/zipkin-js indeed incompatible with OpenTracing API? In the latter case, is there either a plan to provide compatibility with OpenTracing API (and/or willingness to accept pull requests which would provide it), or some other zipkin tracer implementation that would be compatible wityh OpenTracing API?

Thank you for the alert 😃 Awesome to see the typescript conversion, might be a good idea to move DanielMSchmidt/zipkin-javascript-opentracing also to typescript 🤔
