Installation

pip install opentelemetry-resourcedetector-gcp

Usage

from opentelemetry.exporter.otlp.proto.http.trace_exporter import OTLPSpanExporter
from opentelemetry.sdk.trace import TracerProvider
from opentelemetry.sdk.trace.export import BatchSpanProcessor
from opentelemetry import trace
from opentelemetry.sdk.resources import SERVICE_INSTANCE_ID, Resource

# This will use the GooglecloudResourceDetector under the covers.
resource = Resource.create(
    attributes={
        # Use the PID as the service.instance.id to avoid duplicate timeseries
        # from different Gunicorn worker processes.
        SERVICE_INSTANCE_ID: f"worker-{os.getpid()}",
    }
)
traceProvider = TracerProvider(resource=resource)
processor = BatchSpanProcessor(OTLPSpanExporter())
traceProvider.add_span_processor(processor)
trace.set_tracer_provider(traceProvider)
