from opentelemetry.sdk.resources import SERVICE_NAME
from opentelemetry.sdk.trace import TracerProvider
from opentelemetry_hook_sampler import HookSampler


def sampler_hook():
    """
    Sample 1 in 10 traces.
    
    The example is static, but you can get info from any context available
    in your application. E.g. http request, celery task, thread locals, etc.
    """
    return 10


resource = Resource(attributes={SERVICE_NAME: "foo"})
sampler = HookSampler(sampler_hook)
provider = TracerProvider(resource=resource, sampler=sampler)
opentelemetry.trace.set_tracer_provider(provider)

Honeycomb specific

Honeycomb expects a SampleRate attribute to normalize data. It is not OpenTelemetry spec, but it is supported through opentelemetry_hook_sampler.HoneycombHookSampler.
