# OpenTelemetry for Dancer2
[![Coverage Status]][coveralls]
This is part of an ongoing attempt at implementing the OpenTelemetry
standard in Perl. The distribution in this repository implements a
plugin for the [Dancer2] web-framework, to generate and capture
telemetry data using the OpenTelemetry [API].
## What is OpenTelemetry?
OpenTelemetry is an open source observability framework, providing a
general-purpose API, SDK, and related tools required for the instrumentation
of cloud-native software, frameworks, and libraries.
OpenTelemetry provides a single set of APIs, libraries, agents, and collector
services to capture distributed traces and metrics from your application. You
can analyze them using Prometheus, Jaeger, and other observability tools.
## How does this distribution fit in?
This distribution allows authors of [Dancer2] applications to generate
telemetry data from their applications with minimal changes. In keeping with
the API / SDK separation described above, this plugin does not itself collect
or export this telemetry data. For that you will need to wire in the [SDK], for
which the best place to start is [that distribution's documentation][sdk].
## How do I get started?
Install this distribution from CPAN:
```
cpanm Dancer2::Plugin::OpenTelemetry
```
or directly from the repository if you want to install a development
version (although note that only the CPAN version is recommended for
production environments):
```
# On a local fork
cd path/to/this/repo
cpanm install .
# Over the net
cpanm https://github.com/jjatria/dancer2-plugin-opentelemetry.git
```
Then, enable the plugin in your [Dancer2] application. Remember to use the
SDK to be able to use this telemetry data.
``` perl
use Dancer2;
use OpenTelemetry::Plugin::OpenTelemetry;
# Requests to this will automatically generate telemetry data
get '/' => sub { 'OK' };
```
## How can I get involved?
We are in the process of setting up an OpenTelemetry-Perl special interest
group (SIG). Until that is set up, you are free to [express your
interest][sig] or join us in IRC on the #io-async channel in irc.perl.org.
