defmodule OpentelemetryAbsinthe do alias OpentelemetryAbsinthe.Instrumentation @config Instrumentation.default_config() # Allow alias before moduledoc # credo:disable-for-next-line @moduledoc """ # OpentelemetryAbsinthe An opentelemetry instrumentation library for Absinthe ## Usage To start collecting traces just put `OpentelemetryAbsinthe.setup()` in your application start function. ## Configuration OpentelemetryAbsinthe can be configured with the application environment ``` config :opentelemetry_absinthe, trace_options: [ trace_request_query: false, trace_response_errors: true, ... ] ``` configuration can also be passed directly to the setup function ``` OpentelemetryAbsinthe.setup( trace_request_query: false, trace_response_errors: true, ... ) ``` ## Configuration options * `span_name`(default: #{Keyword.fetch!(@config, :span_name)}): Either - `:dynamic`: sets the span name dynamically, based on the operation name and type, as recommended by [opentelemetry](https://opentelemetry.io/docs/reference/specification/trace/semantic_conventions/instrumentation/graphql/). This will become the only supported option in the future. - `String.t()`: *deprecated* the name of the span * `trace_request_query`(default: #{Keyword.fetch!(@config, :trace_request_query)}): attaches the graphql query as an attribute **Important Note**: This is usually safe, since graphql queries are expected to be static. All dynamic data should be passed via graphql variables. However some libraries(for example [dillonkearns/elm-graphql](https://github.com/dillonkearns/elm-graphql/issues/27) store the variables inline as a part of the query. If you expect clients to send dynamic data as a part of the graphql query you should disable this. * `trace_request_name`(default: #{Keyword.fetch!(@config, :trace_request_name)}): attaches the graphql operation name when using batched queries as an attribute * `trace_request_type`(default: #{Keyword.fetch!(@config, :trace_request_type)}): attaches the graphql query type(query, mutation or subscription) as an attribute * `trace_request_variables`(default: #{Keyword.fetch!(@config, :trace_request_variables)}): attaches the graphql variables as an attribute * `trace_request_selections`(default: #{Keyword.fetch!(@config, :trace_request_selections)}): attaches the root fields queried as an attribute For example given a query like: ``` query($isbn: String!) { book(isbn: $isbn) { title author { name age } } reader { name } } ``` will result in a graphql.request.selections attribute with the value `["book", "reader"]` being attached. Note that aliased fields will use their unaliased name. * `trace_response_result`(default: #{Keyword.fetch!(@config, :trace_response_result)}): attaches the result returned by the server as an attribute * `trace_response_errors`(default: #{Keyword.fetch!(@config, :trace_response_errors)}): attaches the errors returned by the server as an attribute * `trace_subscriptions`(default: #{Keyword.fetch!(@config, :trace_subscriptions)}): attaches to `[:absinthe, :subscription, :publish]` (`:start` and `:stop`) * `error_status`(default: `#{Keyword.fetch!(@config, :error_status)}`): controls when GraphQL errors in the response set the span status to `:error`. By default, any non-empty error list in the GraphQL response causes the span to be marked as an error. In many applications, GraphQL errors represent business-level outcomes (e.g. "not found", "unauthorized", "validation failed") rather than server failures. These inflate error rate metrics in observability tools and can trigger false alerts. This option lets you control which errors should actually mark the span as failed: - `:all` (default): any GraphQL error in the response marks the span as error. This preserves the current behavior and is fully backward compatible. - `:none`: GraphQL errors never affect the span status. Useful when all resolver-level errors are expected business outcomes and error tracking is handled at the field/resolver level. - `(errors -> :ok | :error)`: a custom function that receives the list of GraphQL error maps and returns `:ok` or `:error`. This allows fine-grained classification based on error codes, messages, or any other error attributes. Example — only treat internal server errors as span errors: ```elixir OpentelemetryAbsinthe.setup( error_status: fn errors -> has_server_error? = Enum.any?(errors, fn %{extensions: %{code: "INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR"}} -> true _ -> false end) if has_server_error?, do: :error, else: :ok end ) ``` ## Telemetry OpentelemetryAbsinthe exposes `telemetry` events which can be hooked into using `:telemetry.attach/4` or `:telemetry.attach_many/4`. The events exposed are: - `[:opentelemetry_absinthe, :graphql, :handled]` for when a GraphQl query has been handled, the metadata and measurements are defined in `OpentelemetryAbsinthe.Instrumentation.graphql_handled_event_metadata()` and `OpentelemetryAbsinthe.Instrumentation.graphql_handled_event_measurements()` """ defdelegate setup(instrumentation_opts \\ []), to: Instrumentation end
