Overview

Package metric provides an implementation of the OpenTelemetry metrics SDK.

See https://opentelemetry.io/docs/concepts/signals/metrics/ for information about the concept of OpenTelemetry metrics and https://opentelemetry.io/docs/concepts/components/ for more information about OpenTelemetry SDKs.

The entry point for the metric package is the MeterProvider. It is the object that all API calls use to create Meters, instruments, and ultimately make metric measurements. Also, it is an object that should be used to control the life-cycle (start, flush, and shutdown) of the SDK.

A MeterProvider needs to be configured to export the measured data, this is done by configuring it with a Reader implementation (using the WithReader MeterProviderOption). Readers take two forms: ones that push to an endpoint (NewPeriodicReader), and ones that an endpoint pulls from. See go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters for exporters that can be used as or with these Readers.

Each Reader, when registered with the MeterProvider, can be augmented with a View. Views allow users that run OpenTelemetry instrumented code to modify the generated data of that instrumentation.

The data generated by a MeterProvider needs to include information about its origin. A MeterProvider needs to be configured with a Resource, using the WithResource MeterProviderOption, to include this information. This Resource should be used to describe the unique runtime environment instrumented code is being run on. That way when multiple instances of the code are collected at a single endpoint their origin is decipherable.

See go.opentelemetry.io/otel/metric for more information about the metric API.

See go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk/metric/internal/x for information about the experimental features.

Example

To enable metrics in your application using the SDK, you'll need to have an initialized MeterProvider that will let you create a go.opentelemetry.io/otel/metric.Meter.

Here's how you might initialize a metrics provider. 

package main

import (
	"context"
	"log"

	"go.opentelemetry.io/otel"
	"go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk/metric"
	"go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk/resource"

	semconv "go.opentelemetry.io/otel/semconv/v1.25.0"
)

func main() {
	// Create resource.
	res, err := resource.Merge(resource.Default(),
		resource.NewWithAttributes(semconv.SchemaURL,
			semconv.ServiceName("my-service"),
			semconv.ServiceVersion("0.1.0"),
		))
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatalln(err)
	}

	// This reader is used as a stand-in for a reader that will actually export
	// data. See https://pkg.go.dev/go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters for
	// exporters that can be used as or with readers.
	reader := metric.NewManualReader()

	// Create a meter provider.
	// You can pass this instance directly to your instrumented code if it
	// accepts a MeterProvider instance.
	meterProvider := metric.NewMeterProvider(
		metric.WithResource(res),
		metric.WithReader(reader),
	)

	// Handle shutdown properly so that nothing leaks.
	defer func() {
		err := meterProvider.Shutdown(context.Background())
		if err != nil {
			log.Fatalln(err)
		}
	}()

	// Register as global meter provider so that it can be used via otel.Meter
	// and accessed using otel.GetMeterProvider.
	// Most instrumentation libraries use the global meter provider as default.
	// If the global meter provider is not set then a no-op implementation
	// is used, which fails to generate data.
	otel.SetMeterProvider(meterProvider)
}

	// distribution. By default, these extrema are recorded.
	//
	// Recording these extrema for cumulative data is expected to have little

	Temporality(InstrumentKind) metricdata.Temporality

	// Aggregation returns the Aggregation to use for an instrument kind.
	//
	// This method needs to be concurrent safe with itself and all the other
	// Exporter methods.
	Aggregation(InstrumentKind) Aggregation

	// Export serializes and transmits metric data to a receiver.
	//
	// This is called synchronously, there is no concurrency safety
	// requirement. Because of this, it is critical that all timeouts and
	// cancellations of the passed context be honored.
	//
	// All retry logic must be contained in this function. The SDK does not
	// implement any retry logic. All errors returned by this function are
	// considered unrecoverable and will be reported to a configured error
	// Handler.
	//
	// The passed ResourceMetrics may be reused when the call completes. If an
	// exporter needs to hold this data after it returns, it needs to make a
	// copy.
	Export(context.Context, *metricdata.ResourceMetrics) error

	// ForceFlush flushes any metric data held by an exporter.
	//
	// The deadline or cancellation of the passed context must be honored. An
	// appropriate error should be returned in these situations.
	//
	// This method needs to be concurrent safe.
	ForceFlush(context.Context) error

	// Shutdown flushes all metric data held by an exporter and releases any
	// held computational resources.
	//
	// The deadline or cancellation of the passed context must be honored. An
	// appropriate error should be returned in these situations.
	//
	// After Shutdown is called, calls to Export will perform no operation and
	// instead will return an error indicating the shutdown state.
	//
	// This method needs to be concurrent safe.
	Shutdown(context.Context) error
}

Exporter handles the delivery of metric data to external receivers. This is the final component in the metric push pipeline.

func WithTemporalitySelector(selector TemporalitySelector) ManualReaderOption

WithTemporalitySelector sets the TemporalitySelector a reader will use to determine the Temporality of an instrument based on its kind. If this option is not used, the reader will use the DefaultTemporalitySelector.

type MeterProvider added in v0.32.0 

type MeterProvider struct {
	embedded.MeterProvider
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

MeterProvider handles the creation and coordination of Meters. All Meters created by a MeterProvider will be associated with the same Resource, have the same Views applied to them, and have their produced metric telemetry passed to the configured Readers.

func NewMeterProvider added in v0.32.0 

func NewMeterProvider(options ...Option) *MeterProvider

NewMeterProvider returns a new and configured MeterProvider.

By default, the returned MeterProvider is configured with the default Resource and no Readers. Readers cannot be added after a MeterProvider is created. This means the returned MeterProvider, one created with no Readers, will perform no operations.

func (*MeterProvider) ForceFlush added in v0.32.0 

func (mp *MeterProvider) ForceFlush(ctx context.Context) error

ForceFlush flushes all pending telemetry.

This method honors the deadline or cancellation of ctx. An appropriate error will be returned in these situations. There is no guaranteed that all telemetry be flushed or all resources have been released in these situations.

func NewPeriodicReader added in v0.32.0 

func NewPeriodicReader(exporter Exporter, options ...PeriodicReaderOption) *PeriodicReader

NewPeriodicReader returns a Reader that collects and exports metric data to the exporter at a defined interval. By default, the returned Reader will collect and export data every 60 seconds, and will cancel any attempts that exceed 30 seconds, collect and export combined. The collect and export time are not counted towards the interval between attempts.

The Collect method of the returned Reader continues to gather and return metric data to the user. It will not automatically send that data to the exporter. That is left to the user to accomplish.

func (*PeriodicReader) Collect added in v0.40.0 

func (r *PeriodicReader) Collect(ctx context.Context, rm *metricdata.ResourceMetrics) error

Collect gathers all metric data related to the Reader from the SDK and other Producers and stores the result in rm. The metric data is not exported to the configured exporter, it is left to the caller to handle that if desired.

func WithInterval added in v0.32.0 

func WithInterval(d time.Duration) PeriodicReaderOption

WithInterval configures the intervening time between exports for a PeriodicReader.

This option overrides any value set for the OTEL_METRIC_EXPORT_INTERVAL environment variable.

If this option is not used or d is less than or equal to zero, 60 seconds is used as the default.

func WithTimeout added in v0.32.0 

func WithTimeout(d time.Duration) PeriodicReaderOption

WithTimeout configures the time a PeriodicReader waits for an export to complete before canceling it. This includes an export which occurs as part of Shutdown or ForceFlush if the user passed context does not have a deadline. If the user passed context does have a deadline, it will be used instead.

This option overrides any value set for the OTEL_METRIC_EXPORT_TIMEOUT environment variable.

If this option is not used or d is less than or equal to zero, 30 seconds is used as the default.

type Producer added in v0.35.0 

type Producer interface {

	// Produce returns aggregated metrics from an external source.
	//
	// This method should be safe to call concurrently.
	Produce(context.Context) ([]metricdata.ScopeMetrics, error)
}

Producer produces metrics for a Reader from an external source.

type Reader added in v0.32.0 

type Reader interface {

	// Collect gathers and returns all metric data related to the Reader from
	// the SDK and stores it in out. An error is returned if this is called
	// after Shutdown or if out is nil.
	//
	// This method needs to be concurrent safe, and the cancellation of the
	// passed context is expected to be honored.
	Collect(ctx context.Context, rm *metricdata.ResourceMetrics) error

	// Shutdown flushes all metric measurements held in an export pipeline and releases any
	// held computational resources.
	//
	// This deadline or cancellation of the passed context are honored. An appropriate
	// error will be returned in these situations. There is no guaranteed that all
	// telemetry be flushed or all resources have been released in these
	// situations.
	//
	// After Shutdown is called, calls to Collect will perform no operation and instead will return
	// an error indicating the shutdown state.
	//
	// This method needs to be concurrent safe.
	Shutdown(context.Context) error
	// contains filtered or unexported methods
}

Reader is the interface used between the SDK and an exporter. Control flow is bi-directional through the Reader, since the SDK initiates ForceFlush and Shutdown while the exporter initiates collection. The Register() method here informs the Reader that it can begin reading, signaling the start of bi-directional control flow.

Typically, push-based exporters that are periodic will implement PeroidicExporter themselves and construct a PeriodicReader to satisfy this interface.

Pull-based exporters will typically implement Register themselves, since they read on demand.

Warning: methods may be added to this interface in minor releases.

type ReaderOption added in v0.32.0 

type ReaderOption interface {
	PeriodicReaderOption
	ManualReaderOption
}

ReaderOption is an option which can be applied to manual or Periodic readers.

type Stream struct {
	// Name is the human-readable identifier of the stream.
	Name string
	// Description describes the purpose of the data.
	Description string
	// Unit is the unit of measurement recorded.
	Unit string
	// Aggregation the stream uses for an instrument.
	Aggregation Aggregation
	// AttributeFilter is an attribute Filter applied to the attributes
	// recorded for an instrument's measurement. If the filter returns false
	// the attribute will not be recorded, otherwise, if it returns true, it
	// will record the attribute.
	//
	// Use NewAllowKeysFilter from "go.opentelemetry.io/otel/attribute" to
	// provide an allow-list of attribute keys here.
	AttributeFilter attribute.Filter
}

Stream describes the stream of data an instrument produces.

type TemporalitySelector added in v0.32.0 

type TemporalitySelector func(InstrumentKind) metricdata.Temporality

TemporalitySelector selects the temporality to use based on the InstrumentKind.

type View added in v0.34.0 

type View func(Instrument) (Stream, bool)

View is an override to the default behavior of the SDK. It defines how data should be collected for certain instruments. It returns true and the exact Stream to use for matching Instruments. Otherwise, if the view does not match, false is returned.

Example 
package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"regexp"

	"go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk/metric"
)

func main() {
	// The NewView function provides convenient creation of common Views
	// construction. However, it is limited in what it can create.
	//
	// When NewView is not able to provide the functionally needed, a custom
	// View can be constructed directly. Here a custom View is constructed that
	// uses Go's regular expression matching to ensure all data stream names
	// have a suffix of the units it uses.

	re := regexp.MustCompile(`[._](ms|byte)$`)
	var view metric.View = func(i metric.Instrument) (metric.Stream, bool) {
		// In a custom View function, you need to explicitly copy
		// the name, description, and unit.
		s := metric.Stream{Name: i.Name, Description: i.Description, Unit: i.Unit}
		// Any instrument that does not have a unit suffix defined, but has a
		// dimensional unit defined, update the name with a unit suffix.
		if re.MatchString(i.Name) {
			return s, false
		}
		switch i.Unit {
		case "ms":
			s.Name += ".ms"
		case "By":
			s.Name += ".byte"
		default:
			return s, false
		}
		return s, true
	}

	// The created view can then be registered with the OpenTelemetry metric
	// SDK using the WithView option.
	_ = metric.NewMeterProvider(
		metric.WithView(view),
	)

	// Below is an example of how the view will
	// function in the SDK for certain instruments.
	stream, _ := view(metric.Instrument{
		Name: "computation.time.ms",
		Unit: "ms",
	})
	fmt.Println("name:", stream.Name)

	stream, _ = view(metric.Instrument{
		Name: "heap.size",
		Unit: "By",
	})
	fmt.Println("name:", stream.Name)
}

Output:

name: computation.time.ms
name: heap.size.byte

func NewView added in v0.34.0 

func NewView(criteria Instrument, mask Stream) View

NewView returns a View that applies the Stream mask for all instruments that match criteria. The returned View will only apply mask if all non-zero-value fields of criteria match the corresponding Instrument passed to the view. If no criteria are provided, all field of criteria are their zero-values, a view that matches no instruments is returned. If you need to match a zero-value field, create a View directly.

The Name field of criteria supports wildcard pattern matching. The "*" wildcard is recognized as matching zero or more characters, and "?" is recognized as matching exactly one character. For example, a pattern of "*" matches all instrument names.

The Stream mask only applies updates for non-zero-value fields. By default, the Instrument the View matches against will be use for the Name, Description, and Unit of the returned Stream and no Aggregation or AttributeFilter are set. All non-zero-value fields of mask are used instead of the default. If you need to zero out an Stream field returned from a View, create a View directly.

Example 
package main

import (
	"fmt"

	"go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk/instrumentation"
	"go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk/metric"
)

func main() {
	// Create a view that renames the "latency" instrument from the v0.34.0
	// version of the "http" instrumentation library as "request.latency".
	view := metric.NewView(metric.Instrument{
		Name: "latency",
		Scope: instrumentation.Scope{
			Name:    "http",
			Version: "0.34.0",
		},
	}, metric.Stream{Name: "request.latency"})

	// The created view can then be registered with the OpenTelemetry metric
	// SDK using the WithView option.
	_ = metric.NewMeterProvider(
		metric.WithView(view),
	)

	// Below is an example of how the view will
	// function in the SDK for certain instruments.
	stream, _ := view(metric.Instrument{
		Name:        "latency",
		Description: "request latency",
		Unit:        "ms",
