OpenTelemetry Compile-Time Instrumentation for Golang
Detailed Description of opentelemetry-go-auto-instrumentation
Loongsuite Go Agent provides an automatic solution for Golang applications that want to
leverage OpenTelemetry to enable effective observability. No code changes are
required in the target application, the instrumentation is done at compile
time. Simply adding otel prefix to go build to get started :rocket:
Installation
Prebuilt Binaries
This is the recommended way to install the tool.
Install via Bash
For Linux and MacOS users, the following script will install otel in /usr/local/bin/otel by default:
$ sudo curl -fsSL https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/alibaba/loongsuite-go-agent@main/install.sh | sudo bash
Build from Source
$ make # build only
$ make install # build and install
Getting Started
Make sure the tool is installed:
$ # You may use "otel-linux-amd64" instead of "otel"
$ otel version
Just adding otel prefix to go build to build your project:
$ otel go build
$ otel go build -o app cmd/app
$ otel go build -gcflags="-m" cmd/app
That's the whole process! The tool will automatically instrument your code with OpenTelemetry, and you can start to observe your application. :telescope:
The detailed usage of otel tool can be found in Usage.
[!NOTE] If you find any compilation failures while
go buildworks, it's likely a bug. Please feel free to file a bug at GitHub Issues to help us enhance this project.
