Issues

Export data via gRPC using OTLP format. By default, this exporter requires TLS and offers queued retry capabilities.

Getting Started

The following settings are required:

endpoint (no default): host:port to which the exporter is going to send OTLP trace data, using the gRPC protocol. The valid syntax is described here. If a scheme of https is used then client transport security is enabled and overrides the insecure setting.
tls: see TLS Configuration Settings for the full set of available options.
retry_on_failure: see Retry on Failure for the full set of available options.
sending_queue: see Sending Queue for the full set of available options.
timeout (default = 5s): Time to wait per individual attempt to send data to a backend.

Example:

exporters:
  otlp:
    endpoint: otelcol2:4317
    tls:
      cert_file: file.cert
      key_file: file.key
  otlp/2:
    endpoint: otelcol2:4317
    tls:
      insecure: true

By default, gzip compression is enabled. See compression comparison for details benchmark information. To disable, configure as follows:

exporters:
  otlp:
    ...
    compression: none

Advanced Configuration

Several helper files are leveraged to provide additional capabilities automatically:

NewFactory creates a factory for OTLP exporter.

Types ¶

type Config ¶

type Config struct {
	TimeoutConfig exporterhelper.TimeoutConfig    `mapstructure:",squash"` // squash ensures fields are correctly decoded in embedded struct.
	QueueConfig   exporterhelper.QueueBatchConfig `mapstructure:"sending_queue"`
	RetryConfig   configretry.BackOffConfig       `mapstructure:"retry_on_failure"`
	ClientConfig  configgrpc.ClientConfig         `mapstructure:",squash"` // squash ensures fields are correctly decoded in embedded struct.
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Config defines configuration for OTLP exporter.

func (*Config) Validate ¶

func (c *Config) Validate() error
