Package otlptracehttp provides an OTLP span exporter using HTTP with protobuf payloads.
By default the telemetry is sent to https://localhost:4318/v1/traces.
Exporter should be created using New.
The environment variables described below can be used for configuration.
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT (default: "https://localhost:4318") -
target base URL ("/v1/traces" is appended) to which the exporter sends telemetry.
The value must contain a scheme ("http" or "https") and host.
The value may additionally contain a port and a path.
The value should not contain a query string or fragment.
The configuration can be overridden by OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_ENDPOINT
environment variable and by WithEndpoint, WithEndpointURL, WithInsecure options.
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_ENDPOINT (default: "https://localhost:4318/v1/traces") -
target URL to which the exporter sends telemetry.
The value must contain a scheme ("http" or "https") and host.
The value may additionally contain a port and a path.
The value should not contain a query string or fragment.
The configuration can be overridden by WithEndpoint, WithEndpointURL, [WitnInsecure], and WithURLPath options.
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_HEADERS, OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_HEADERS (default: none) -
key-value pairs used as headers associated with HTTP requests.
The value is expected to be represented in a format matching the W3C Baggage HTTP Header Content Format,
except that additional semi-colon delimited metadata is not supported.
Example value: "key1=value1,key2=value2".
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_HEADERS takes precedence over OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_HEADERS.
The configuration can be overridden by WithHeaders option.
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TIMEOUT, OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_TIMEOUT (default: "10000") -
maximum time in milliseconds the OTLP exporter waits for each batch export.
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_TIMEOUT takes precedence over OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TIMEOUT.
The configuration can be overridden by WithTimeout option.
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_COMPRESSION, OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_COMPRESSION (default: none) -
the compression strategy the exporter uses to compress the HTTP body.
Supported value: "gzip".
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_COMPRESSION takes precedence over OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_COMPRESSION.
The configuration can be overridden by WithCompression option.
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_CERTIFICATE, OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_CERTIFICATE (default: none) -
the filepath to the trusted certificate to use when verifying a server's TLS credentials.
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_CERTIFICATE takes precedence over OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_CERTIFICATE.
The configuration can be overridden by WithTLSClientConfig option.
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_CLIENT_CERTIFICATE, OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_CLIENT_CERTIFICATE (default: none) -
the filepath to the client certificate/chain trust for client's private key to use in mTLS communication in PEM format.
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_CLIENT_CERTIFICATE takes precedence over OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_CLIENT_CERTIFICATE.
The configuration can be overridden by WithTLSClientConfig option.
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_CLIENT_KEY, OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_CLIENT_KEY (default: none) -
the filepath to the client's private key to use in mTLS communication in PEM format.
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_CLIENT_KEY takes precedence over OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_CLIENT_KEY.
The configuration can be overridden by WithTLSClientConfig option.
