Overview

OpenTelemetry is an open specification for distributed tracing, metrics, and logging. It defines a semantic convention for feature flagging which is utilized in this hook to report flag evaluations.

This package also builds on various PSRs (PHP Standards Recommendations) such as the Logger interfaces (PSR-3) and the Basic and Extended Coding Standards (PSR-1 and PSR-12).

Autoloading

This package supports Composer autoloading. Thus, simply installing the package is all you need in order to immediately get started with OpenTracing for OpenFeature! Examples are provided that showcase the simple setup as well. Check out the Usage section for more info.

OpenTelemetry Package Status

The OpenTelemetry package for PHP is still in beta, so there could be changes required. However, it exposes global primitives for span retrieval that should not require any configuration upfront for the provider to just work.

Installation

composer require open-feature/otel-hook

Usage

The OpenTelemetryHook should be registered to the OpenFeatureAPI globally for use across all evaluations.

It makes use of the open-telemetry/api packages Globals utility for current span retrieval, thus has no dependency on configuration or injection of tracers.

use OpenFeature\Hooks\OpenTelemetry\OpenTelemetryHook;

OpenTelemetryHook::register();
