following error log gets spammed in the laravel.log file:

[2023-11-09 10:32:47] testing.ERROR: Invalid sampler class. Expected `BinarySampler` or `PercentageSampler`, got 0.000000 {

    "exception":"[object] (InvalidArgumentException(code: 0): Invalid sampler class. Expected `BinarySampler` or `PercentageSampler`, got 0.000000 at /vendor/vinelab/tracing-laravel/src/TracingDriverManager.php:83)

Workaround

Manually add the new tracing.zipkin.sampler_class settings to config/tracing:

'sampler_class' => \Zipkin\Samplers\BinarySampler::class,
'percentage_sampler_rate' => env('ZIPKIN_PERCENTAGE_SAMPLER_RATE', 0.2),

PR #49 - Diff of config/tracing

Fix Suggestion

• Populate the new tracing.zipkin.sampler_class settings in config/tracing with default values if not set.
• Document config/tracing changes in the ChangeLog of new releases

I made a mistake.😂😂 This is a break change., I ignored the need to update the configuration file. You can first synchronize the configuration file from vendor/vinelab/tracing-laravel/config/tracing.php

I figured it out already, just finished editing my issue description's work-around 🙂

Will it be better to get it from env?

'sampler_class' => env('ZIPKIN_SAMPLER_CLASS', \Zipkin\Samplers\BinarySampler::class),

.env

ZIPKIN_SAMPLER_CLASS="Zipkin\\Samplers\\BinarySampler"

I'd say exposing config settings to the .env,
with default fallback values, so they're optional,
is always desirable 😄

I added configurable parameters #51
