Otelfiber

Release Discord Test Security Linter

OpenTelemetry support for Fiber.

Can be found on OpenTelemetry Registry.

Note: Requires Go 1.19 and above

Install

This middleware supports Fiber v2.

go get -u github.com/gofiber/contrib/otelfiber/v2

Signature

otelfiber.Middleware(opts ...otelfiber.Option) fiber.Handler

Config

You can configure the middleware using functional parameters

FunctionArgument TypeDescriptionDefault
WithNextfunc(*fiber.Ctx) boolDefine a function to skip this middleware when returned true .nil
WithTracerProvideroteltrace.TracerProviderSpecifies a tracer provider to use for creating a tracer.nil - the global tracer provider is used
WithMeterProviderotelmetric.MeterProviderSpecifies a meter provider to use for reporting.nil - the global meter provider is used
WithPortintSpecifies the value to use when setting the net.host.port attribute on metrics/spans.Defaults to (80 for http, 443 for https)
WithPropagatorspropagation.TextMapPropagatorSpecifies propagators to use for extracting information from the HTTP requests.If none are specified, global ones will be used
WithServerNamestringSpecifies the value to use when setting the http.server_name attribute on metrics/spans.-
WithSpanNameFormatterfunc(*fiber.Ctx) stringTakes a function that will be called on every request and the returned string will become the span Name.Default formatter returns the route pathRaw
WithCustomAttributesfunc(*fiber.Ctx) []attribute.KeyValueDefine a function to add custom attributes to the span.nil
WithCustomMetricAttributesfunc(*fiber.Ctx) []attribute.KeyValueDefine a function to add custom attributes to the metrics.nil
WithCollectClientIPboolSpecifies whether to collect the client's IP address from the request.true

Usage
