OpenTelemetry Core
This package provides default implementations of the OpenTelemetry API for trace and metrics. It's intended for use both on the server and in the browser.
Built-in Implementations
Built-in Propagators
W3CTraceContextPropagator Propagator
OpenTelemetry provides a text-based approach to propagate context to remote services using the W3C Trace Context HTTP headers.
1const api = require("@opentelemetry/api"); 2const { W3CTraceContextPropagator } = require("@opentelemetry/core"); 3 4/* Set Global Propagator */ 5api.propagation.setGlobalPropagator(new W3CTraceContextPropagator());
Composite Propagator
Combines multiple propagators into a single propagator.
This is used as a default Propagator
1const api = require("@opentelemetry/api"); 2const { CompositePropagator } = require("@opentelemetry/core"); 3 4/* Set Global Propagator */ 5api.propagation.setGlobalPropagator(new CompositePropagator());
Baggage Propagator
Provides a text-based approach to propagate baggage to remote services using the OpenTelemetry Baggage Propagation HTTP headers.
1const api = require("@opentelemetry/api"); 2const { W3CBaggagePropagator } = require("@opentelemetry/core"); 3 4/* Set Global Propagator */ 5api.propagation.setGlobalPropagator(new W3CBaggagePropagator());
