OpenTelemetry instrumentation for `cassandra-driver` database client library for Apache Cassandra
This module provides automatic instrumentation for the injection of trace context to cassandra-driver, which may be loaded using the @opentelemetry/sdk-trace-node package and is included in the @opentelemetry/auto-instrumentations-node bundle.
If total installation size is not constrained, it is recommended to use the @opentelemetry/auto-instrumentations-node bundle with @opentelemetry/sdk-node for the most seamless instrumentation experience.
Compatible with OpenTelemetry JS API and SDK 1.0+.
npm install --save @opentelemetry/instrumentation-cassandra-driver
cassandra-driver versions >=4.4.0 <5const { NodeTracerProvider } = require('@opentelemetry/sdk-trace-node');
const { CassandraDriverInstrumentation } = require('@opentelemetry/instrumentation-cassandra-driver');
const { registerInstrumentations } = require('@opentelemetry/instrumentation');
const provider = new NodeTracerProvider();
provider.register();
registerInstrumentations({

new CassandraDriverInstrumentation(),
// other instrumentations
],
});
const cassandra = require('cassandra-driver');
const client = new cassandra.Client({ ... });
await client.execute('select * from foo');
