## Installation
Go 1.20+ required
```sh
git clone https://github.com/dillonstreator/template-go-chi
cd template-go-chi
go run .
```
## Configuration
See all example configuration via environment variables in [`.env-example`](./.env-example)
### Open Telemetry
Open Telemetry is disabled by default but can be enabled by setting the `OTEL_ENABLED` environment to `true`.
By default, the trace exporter is set to standard output. This can be overridden by setting `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT`.
Start the `jaegertracing/all-in-one` container with `docker-compose up` and set `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT=http://localhost:4318` to collect logs in jaeger. Docker compose will expose jaeger at http://localhost:16686
