OpenTelemetry Http Instrumentation

The HTTP instrumentation is a community-maintained instrumentation for the HTTP gem.

How do I get started?

Install the gem using:

gem install opentelemetry-instrumentation-http

Or, if you use bundler, include opentelemetry-instrumentation-http in your Gemfile.

Usage

To use the instrumentation, call use with the name of the instrumentation:

OpenTelemetry::SDK.configure do |c|
  c.use 'OpenTelemetry::Instrumentation::HTTP'
end

Alternatively, you can also call use_all to install all the available instrumentation.

OpenTelemetry::SDK.configure do |c|
  c.use_all
end

Examples

Example usage can be seen in the ./example/trace_demonstration.rb file here
