OpenTelemetry-Go is the Go implementation of OpenTelemetry. It provides a set of APIs to directly measure performance and behavior of your software and send this data to observability platforms.

Progress and status specific to this repository is tracked in our project boards and milestones.

Project versioning information and stability guarantees can be found in the versioning documentation.

Compatibility

OpenTelemetry-Go ensures compatibility with the current supported versions of the Go language:

Each major Go release is supported until there are two newer major releases. For example, Go 1.5 was supported until the Go 1.7 release, and Go 1.6 was supported until the Go 1.8 release.

For versions of Go that are no longer supported upstream, opentelemetry-go will stop ensuring compatibility with these versions in the following manner:

  • A minor release of opentelemetry-go will be made to add support for the new supported release of Go.
  • The following minor release of opentelemetry-go will remove compatibility testing for the oldest (now archived upstream) version of Go. This, and future, releases of opentelemetry-go may include features only supported by the currently supported versions of Go.

Currently, this project supports the following environments.

OS Go Version Architecture
Ubuntu 1.23 amd64
Ubuntu 1.22 amd64
Ubuntu 1.23 386

While this project should work for other systems, no compatibility guarantees are made for those systems currently.

Getting Started

You can find a getting started guide on opentelemetry.io.

OpenTelemetry's goal is to provide a single set of APIs to capture distributed traces and metrics from your application and send them to an observability platform. This project allows you to do just that for applications written in Go. There are two steps to this process: instrument your application, and configure an exporter.

Instrumentation

To start capturing distributed traces and metric events from your application it first needs to be instrumented. The easiest way to do this is by using an instrumentation library for your code. Be sure to check out the officially supported instrumentation libraries.

If you need to extend the telemetry an instrumentation library provides or want to build your own instrumentation for your application directly you will need to use the Go otel package. The examples are a good way to see some practical uses of this process.

Export

Now that your application is instrumented to collect telemetry, it needs an export pipeline to send that telemetry to an observability platform.

All officially supported exporters for the OpenTelemetry project are contained in the exporters directory.

Overview

Package otel provides global access to the OpenTelemetry API. The subpackages of the otel package provide an implementation of the OpenTelemetry API.

The provided API is used to instrument code and measure data about that code's performance and operation. The measured data, by default, is not processed or transmitted anywhere. An implementation of the OpenTelemetry SDK, like the default SDK implementation (go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk), and associated exporters are used to process and transport this data.

Functions

func GetMeterProvider added in v0.14.0

func GetMeterProvider() metric.MeterProvider

GetMeterProvider returns the registered global meter provider.

If no global GetMeterProvider has been registered, a No-op GetMeterProvider implementation is returned. When a global GetMeterProvider is registered for the first time, the returned GetMeterProvider, and all the Meters it has created or will create, are recreated automatically from the new GetMeterProvider.

func GetTextMapPropagator added in v0.14.0

func GetTextMapPropagator() propagation.TextMapPropagator

GetTextMapPropagator returns the global TextMapPropagator. If none has been set, a No-Op TextMapPropagator is returned.

func GetTracerProvider added in v0.14.0

func GetTracerProvider() trace.TracerProvider

GetTracerProvider returns the registered global trace provider. If none is registered then an instance of NoopTracerProvider is returned.

Use the trace provider to create a named tracer. E.g.

tracer := otel.GetTracerProvider().Tracer("example.com/foo")

or

tracer := otel.Tracer("example.com/foo")

func Handle added in v0.14.0

func Handle(err error)

Handle is a convenience function for GetErrorHandler().Handle(err).

func Meter

func Meter(name string, opts ...metric.MeterOption) metric.Meter

Meter returns a Meter from the global MeterProvider. The name must be the name of the library providing instrumentation. This name may be the same as the instrumented code only if that code provides built-in instrumentation. If the name is empty, then a implementation defined default name will be used instead.

If this is called before a global MeterProvider is registered the returned Meter will be a No-op implementation of a Meter. When a global MeterProvider is registered for the first time, the returned Meter, and all the instruments it has created or will create, are recreated automatically from the new MeterProvider.

This is short for GetMeterProvider().Meter(name).

func SetErrorHandler added in v0.14.0

func SetErrorHandler(h ErrorHandler)

SetErrorHandler sets the global ErrorHandler to h.

The first time this is called all ErrorHandler previously returned from GetErrorHandler will send errors to h instead of the default logging ErrorHandler. Subsequent calls will set the global ErrorHandler, but not delegate errors to h.

func SetLogger added in v1.3.0

func SetLogger(logger logr.Logger)

SetLogger configures the logger used internally to opentelemetry.

Example
package main

import (
	"log"
	"os"

	"github.com/go-logr/stdr"

	"go.opentelemetry.io/otel"
)

func main() {
	logger := stdr.New(log.New(os.Stdout, "", log.LstdFlags|log.Lshortfile))
	otel.SetLogger(logger)
}
Output:

func SetMeterProvider added in v0.14.0

func SetMeterProvider(mp metric.MeterProvider)

SetMeterProvider registers mp as the global MeterProvider.

func SetTextMapPropagator added in v0.14.0

func SetTextMapPropagator(propagator propagation.TextMapPropagator)

SetTextMapPropagator sets propagator as the global TextMapPropagator.

func SetTracerProvider added in v0.14.0

func SetTracerProvider(tp trace.TracerProvider)

SetTracerProvider registers `tp` as the global trace provider.

func Tracer

func Tracer(name string, opts ...trace.TracerOption) trace.Tracer

Tracer creates a named tracer that implements Tracer interface. If the name is an empty string then provider uses default name.

This is short for GetTracerProvider().Tracer(name, opts...)

func Version added in v0.14.0

func Version() string

Version is the current release version of OpenTelemetry in use.

Types

type ErrorHandler added in v0.11.0

type ErrorHandler interface {

	// Handle handles any error deemed irremediable by an OpenTelemetry
	// component.
	Handle(error)
}

ErrorHandler handles irremediable events.

func GetErrorHandler added in v0.14.0

func GetErrorHandler() ErrorHandler

GetErrorHandler returns the global ErrorHandler instance.

The default ErrorHandler instance returned will log all errors to STDERR until an override ErrorHandler is set with SetErrorHandler. All ErrorHandler returned prior to this will automatically forward errors to the set instance instead of logging.

Subsequent calls to SetErrorHandler after the first will not forward errors to the new ErrorHandler for prior returned instances.

type ErrorHandlerFunc added in v1.0.0

type ErrorHandlerFunc func(error)

ErrorHandlerFunc is a convenience adapter to allow the use of a function as an ErrorHandler.

func (ErrorHandlerFunc) Handle added in v1.0.0

func (f ErrorHandlerFunc) Handle(err error)

Handle handles the irremediable error by calling the ErrorHandlerFunc itself.
