# Genkit OpenTelemetry Plugin for Go

A comprehensive OpenTelemetry plugin for [Genkit Go](https://genkit.dev/go/docs/) that provides out-of-the-box trace spans, metrics collectors, and logs with the flexibility to bring your own exporters.

## Features

- 🚀 **Out-of-the-box setup** with sensible defaults
- 📊 **Multiple exporters** - OTLP, Prometheus, Jaeger, Console, and more
- ⚙️ **Flexible configuration** - use presets or bring your own exporters
- 🔄 **Environment-aware** - different behavior for dev vs production
- 📈 **Comprehensive telemetry** - traces, metrics, and structured logs

## Installation

```bash
go get github.com/xavidop/genkit-opentelemetry-go
```

## Quick Start

### Basic Usage

The simplest way to get started is with the default OTLP configuration:

```go
package main

import (
    "context"
    "log"

"github.com/firebase/genkit/go/genkit"
    opentelemetry "github.com/xavidop/genkit-opentelemetry-go"
)

func main() {
    ctx := context.Background()

// Initialize OpenTelemetry plugin with default settings
    plugin := opentelemetry.New(opentelemetry.Config{
        ServiceName: "my-genkit-app",
        ForceExport: true, // Export even in development
    })

// Initialize Genkit
    genkit.Init(ctx,
        genkit.WithPlugins(plugin),
    )

// Your Genkit flows will now automatically emit telemetry!
}
```

### Development Setup

For development, use the console preset to see telemetry data in your terminal:

```go
otelPlugin := opentelemetry.NewWithPreset(opentelemetry.PresetConsole, opentelemetry.Config{
    ServiceName: "my-app-dev",
    LogLevel:    slog.LevelDebug,
    ForceExport: true, // Export even in dev environment
})
```

## Examples

### Using Jaeger

```go
jaegerPlugin := opentelemetry.NewWithPreset(opentelemetry.PresetJaeger, opentelemetry.Config{
    ServiceName: "my-genkit-app",
    ForceExport: true,
})
```

### Using Prometheus

```go
plugin := opentelemetry.NewWithPreset(opentelemetry.PresetPrometheus, opentelemetry.Config{
    ServiceName:    "my-genkit-app",
    ForceExport:    true,
    MetricInterval: 15 * time.Second,
    PrometheusPort: 8081, // Custom port for the /metrics endpoint
})
```

### Using OTLP

```go
plugin := opentelemetry.NewWithPreset(opentelemetry.PresetOTLP, opentelemetry.Config{
    ServiceName:    "my-genkit-app",
    ForceExport:    true,
    MetricInterval: 15 * time.Second,
})
```

## Production Setup Options

export OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_ENDPOINT=stdout
export OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_METRICS_ENDPOINT=stdout
```

## Configuration Options

```

## Presets

The plugin comes with several presets for common scenarios:
### OTLP (Default)
```go
otelPlugin := opentelemetry.NewWithPreset(opentelemetry.PresetOTLP)
```

### Jaeger
```go
otelPlugin := opentelemetry.NewWithPreset(opentelemetry.PresetJaeger, opentelemetry.Config{
    OTLPEndpoint: "http://localhost:14268/api/traces",
})
```

### Prometheus
```go
otelPlugin := opentelemetry.NewWithPreset(opentelemetry.PresetPrometheus)
```

### Console (Development)
```go
otelPlugin := opentelemetry.NewWithPreset(opentelemetry.PresetConsole, opentelemetry.Config{
    LogLevel: slog.LevelDebug,
})
```

## What's Automatically Instrumented

When you use this plugin with Genkit, you automatically get:

- **Traces** for all Genkit flows and actions
- **Metrics** for flow execution times, success/failure rates
- **Logs** with proper correlation to traces
- **Custom attributes** for Genkit-specific metadata

## Adding Custom Instrumentation

You can add your own traces and metrics:

```go
import "go.opentelemetry.io/otel"

// Get a tracer
tracer := otel.Tracer("my-component")

// Create a span
ctx, span := tracer.Start(ctx, "my-operation")
defer span.End()

// Add attributes
span.SetAttributes(
    attribute.String("user.id", userID),
    attribute.Int("batch.size", batchSize),
)

// Get a meter for custom metrics
meter := otel.Meter("my-component")
counter, _ := meter.Int64Counter("requests_total")
counter.Add(ctx, 1, metric.WithAttributes(
    attribute.String("method", "POST"),
))
```

## Troubleshooting

### Problem: No traces appearing

1. Check if `ForceExport: true` is set in development
2. Verify the OTLP endpoint is correct
3. Check network connectivity to your telemetry backend
4. Look for error logs in your application

### Problem: High memory usage

1. Reduce the `MetricInterval` for more frequent exports
2. Consider using sampling for traces in high-traffic applications
3. Check if your telemetry backend is accepting data

### Problem: Missing data

1. Check if your telemetry backend has ingestion limits
2. Verify the service name matches your expectations

### Getting Help

1. Check the [examples](./examples/) directory
2. Review the [main documentation](./README.md)
3. Look at the test files for usage patterns
4. Open an issue if you find bugs or need features

## Advanced Usage

### Custom Exporters

You can bring your own exporters:

```go
import (
    "go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/stdout/stdouttrace"
    "go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/stdout/stdoutmetric"
)

// Create custom exporters
traceExporter, _ := stdouttrace.New(stdouttrace.WithPrettyPrint())
metricExporter, _ := stdoutmetric.New(stdoutmetric.WithPrettyPrint())

otelPlugin := opentelemetry.New(opentelemetry.Config{
    ServiceName:     "my-app",
    TraceExporter:   traceExporter,
    MetricExporter:  metricExporter,
    ForceExport:     true,
})
```
