Exporter Helper

This is a helper exporter that other exporters can depend on. Today, it primarily offers queued retry capabilities.

⚠ This exporter should not be added to a service pipeline.

Configuration

The following configuration options can be modified:

  • retry_on_failure
    • enabled (default = true)
    • initial_interval (default = 5s): Time to wait after the first failure before retrying; ignored if enabled is false
    • max_interval (default = 30s): Is the upper bound on backoff; ignored if enabled is false
    • max_elapsed_time (default = 300s): Is the maximum amount of time spent trying to send a batch; ignored if enabled is false. If set to 0, the retries are never stopped.
  • sending_queue
    • enabled (default = true)
    • num_consumers (default = 10): Number of consumers that dequeue batches; ignored if enabled is false
    • queue_size (default = 1000): Maximum number of batches kept in memory before dropping; ignored if enabled is false User should calculate this as num_seconds * requests_per_second / requests_per_batch where:
      • num_seconds is the number of seconds to buffer in case of a backend outage
      • requests_per_second is the average number of requests per seconds
      • requests_per_batch is the average number of requests per batch (if the batch processor is used, the metric send_batch_size can be used for estimation)
  • timeout (default = 5s): Time to wait per individual attempt to send data to a backend

The initial_interval, max_interval, max_elapsed_time, and timeout options accept duration strings, valid time units are "ns", "us" (or "µs"), "ms", "s", "m", "h".

Persistent Queue

To use the persistent queue, the following setting needs to be set:

  • sending_queue
    • storage (default = none): When set, enables persistence and uses the component specified as a storage extension for the persistent queue. There is no in-memory queue when set.

The maximum number of batches stored to disk can be controlled using sending_queue.queue_size parameter (which, similarly as for in-memory buffering, defaults to 1000 batches).

When persistent queue is enabled, the batches are being buffered using the provided storage extension - filestorage is a popular and safe choice. If the collector instance is killed while having some items in the persistent queue, on restart the items will be picked and the exporting is continued.

type QueueSettings struct {
	// Enabled indicates whether to not enqueue batches before sending to the consumerSender.
	Enabled bool `mapstructure:"enabled"`
	// NumConsumers is the number of consumers from the queue. Defaults to 10.
	// If batching is enabled, a combined batch cannot contain more requests than the number of consumers.
	// So it's recommended to set higher number of consumers if batching is enabled.
	NumConsumers int `mapstructure:"num_consumers"`
	// QueueSize is the maximum number of batches allowed in queue at a given time.
	QueueSize int `mapstructure:"queue_size"`
	// StorageID if not empty, enables the persistent storage and uses the component specified
	// as a storage extension for the persistent queue
	StorageID *component.ID `mapstructure:"storage"`

type Request added in v0.84.0

type Request interface {
	// Export exports the request to an external endpoint.
	Export(ctx context.Context) error
	// ItemsCount returns a number of basic items in the request where item is the smallest piece of data that can be
	// sent. For example, for OTLP exporter, this value represents the number of spans,
	// metric data points or log records.
	ItemsCount() int
}

Request represents a single request that can be sent to an external endpoint. Experimental: This API is at the early stage of development and may change without backward compatibility until https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector/issues/8122 is resolved.

type RequestErrorHandler added in v0.89.0

	Request
	// OnError returns a new Request may contain the items left to be sent if some items failed to process and can be retried.
	// Otherwise, it should return the original Request.
	OnError(error) Request
}

RequestErrorHandler is an optional interface that can be implemented by Request to provide a way handle partial temporary failures. For example, if some items failed to process and can be retried, this interface allows to return a new Request that contains the items left to be sent. Otherwise, the original Request should be returned. If not implemented, the original Request will be returned assuming the error is applied to the whole Request. Experimental: This API is at the early stage of development and may change without backward compatibility until https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector/issues/8122 is resolved.

type RequestFromLogsFunc added in v0.90.0

type RequestFromMetricsFunc added in v0.90.0

type RequestFromMetricsFunc func(context.Context, pmetric.Metrics) (Request, error)

type RequestFromTracesFunc func(context.Context, ptrace.Traces) (Request, error)

RequestFromTracesFunc converts ptrace.Traces into a user-defined Request. Experimental: This API is at the early stage of development and may change without backward compatibility until https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector/issues/8122 is resolved.

type RequestMarshaler deprecated added in v0.89.0

type RequestMarshaler func(req Request) ([]byte, error)

RequestMarshaler is a function that can marshal a Request into bytes.

Deprecated: [v0.94.0] Use exporterqueue.Marshaler[Request] instead.

type RequestUnmarshaler deprecated added in v0.89.0

type RequestUnmarshaler func(data []byte) (Request, error)

RequestUnmarshaler is a function that can unmarshal bytes into a Request.

Deprecated: [v0.94.0] Use exporterqueue.Unmarshaler[Request] instead.

type TimeoutSettings struct {
	// Timeout is the timeout for every attempt to send data to the backend.
	// A zero timeout means no timeout.
	Timeout time.Duration `mapstructure:"timeout"`
}
