The Honeycomb OpenTelemetry Exporter for Go

Default Exporter

The Exporter can be initialized using sdktrace.WithSyncer:

exporter, _ := honeycomb.NewExporter(
	honeycomb.Config{
		APIKey:  <YOUR-API-KEY>,
	},
	honeycomb.TargetingDataset(<YOUR-DATASET>),
	honeycomb.WithServiceName("example-server"),
	honeycomb.WithDebugEnabled()) // optional to output diagnostic logs to STDOUT

defer exporter.Shutdown(context.TODO())
sdktrace.NewProvider(
	sdktrace.WithConfig(sdktrace.Config{DefaultSampler: sdktrace.AlwaysSample()}),
	sdktrace.WithSyncer(exporter),
)

Sampling

Read more about sampling with Honeycomb in our docs.
