* Move span transforms of the OTLP exporter to internal Breakup and move functionality of the `transform_spans.go` file into appropriate files in the `internal/transform` sub-package. This is in preparation of using some of the overlapping functionality to implement Resource support in the metric side of the exporter. Adds more specific unit tests for some of the functionality transferred. The tests removed used the exporter as a processing engine and the replacement tests do not do this. The test found in the `oltp_test.go` seem to comprehensively cover this type of test. Include Link `Name` in the exporter span link and adds a test to check for this.

OpenTelemetry-Go
The Go OpenTelemetry client.
Installation
This repository includes multiple packages. The api
package contains core data types, interfaces and no-op implementations that comprise the OpenTelemetry API following
the
specification.
The sdk
package is the reference implementation of the API.
Libraries that produce telemetry data should only depend on api
and defer the choice of the SDK to the application developer. Applications may
depend on sdk
or another package that implements the API.
All packages are published to go.opentelemetry.io/otel and is the preferred location to import from.

Quick Start
Below is a brief example of importing OpenTelemetry, initializing a tracer and creating some simple spans.
package main
import (
"context"
"log"
"go.opentelemetry.io/otel/api/global"
"go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/trace/stdout"
sdktrace "go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk/trace"
)
func initTracer() {
exporter, err := stdout.NewExporter(stdout.Options{PrettyPrint: true})
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
tp, err := sdktrace.NewProvider(sdktrace.WithConfig(sdktrace.Config{DefaultSampler: sdktrace.AlwaysSample()}),
sdktrace.WithSyncer(exporter))
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
global.SetTraceProvider(tp)
}
func main() {
initTracer()
tracer := global.Tracer("ex.com/basic")
tracer.WithSpan(context.Background(), "foo",
func(ctx context.Context) error {
tracer.WithSpan(ctx, "bar",
func(ctx context.Context) error {
tracer.WithSpan(ctx, "baz",
func(ctx context.Context) error {
return nil
},
)
return nil
},
)
return nil
},
)
}
See the API documentation for more detail, and the opentelemetry-example-app for a complete example.
Compatible Exporters
See the Go packages depending upon sdk/export/trace and sdk/export/metric for a list of all exporters compatible with OpenTelemetry's Go SDK.
