Creating a Resource

This feature allows the creation of a Resource object that describes the service generating telemetry data. It includes attributes like service name, version, and deployment environment.

{"const { Resource } = require('@opentelemetry/resources');
const { SemanticResourceAttributes } = require('@opentelemetry/semantic-conventions');

const resource = new Resource({
  [SemanticResourceAttributes.SERVICE_NAME]: 'my-service',
  [SemanticResourceAttributes.SERVICE_VERSION]: '1.0.0',
  [SemanticResourceAttributes.DEPLOYMENT_ENVIRONMENT]: 'production'
});
"}

Merging Resources

This feature demonstrates how to merge two Resource objects into one, combining their attributes. This is useful when you have resource information coming from different sources and want to create a unified view.

{"const { Resource } = require('@opentelemetry/resources');

const resource1 = new Resource({
  'service.name': 'my-service'
});
const resource2 = new Resource({
  'service.version': '1.0.0'
});

const mergedResource = resource1.merge(resource2);
"}
