title: Using instrumentation libraries | ||
weight: 3 | ||
--- | ||
|
||
Go does not support truly automatic instrumentation like other languages today. Instead, you'll need to depend on [instrumentation libraries](https://opentelemetry.io/docs/reference/specification/glossary/#instrumentation-library) that generate telemetry data for a particular instrumented library. For example, the instrumentation library for `net/hhtp` will automatically create spans that track inbound and outbound requests once you configure it in your code. | ||
|
||
## Setup | ||
|
||
Each instrumentation library is a package. In general, this means you need to `go get` the appropriate package: | ||
|
||
```console | ||
go get go.opentelemetry.io/contrib/instrumentation/{import-path}/otel{package-name} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
And then configure it in your code based on what the library requires to be activated. | ||
|
||
## Example with `net/http` | ||
|
||
As an example, here's how you can set up automatic instrumentation for inbound HTTP requests for `net/http`: | ||
|
||
First, get the `net/http` instrumentation library: | ||
|
||
```console | ||
go get go.opentelemetry.io/contrib/instrumentation/net/http/otelhttp | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Next, use the library to wrap an HTTP handler in your code: | ||
|
||
```go | ||
package main | ||
|
||
import ( | ||
"context" | ||
"fmt" | ||
"log" | ||
"net/http" | ||
"time" | ||
|
||
"go.opentelemetry.io/contrib/instrumentation/net/http/otelhttp" | ||
"go.opentelemetry.io/otel" | ||
"go.opentelemetry.io/otel/attribute" | ||
) | ||
|
||
// Package-level tracer. | ||
// This should be configured in your code setup instead of here. | ||
var tracer = otel.Tracer("github.com/full/path/to/mypkg") | ||
|
||
// sleepy mocks work that your application does. | ||
func sleepy(ctx context.Context) { | ||
_, span := tracer.Start(ctx, "sleep") | ||
defer span.End() | ||
|
||
sleepTime := 1 * time.Second | ||
time.Sleep(sleepTime) | ||
span.SetAttributes(attribute.Int("sleep.duration", int(sleepTime))) | ||
} | ||
|
||
// httpHandler is an HTTP handler function that is going to be instrumented. | ||
func httpHandler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) { | ||
fmt.Fprintf(w, "Hello, World! I am instrumented autoamtically!") | ||
ctx := r.Context() | ||
sleepy(ctx) | ||
} | ||
|
||
func main() { | ||
// Wrap your httpHandler function. | ||
handler := http.HandlerFunc(httpHandler) | ||
wrappedHandler := otelhttp.NewHandler(handler, "hello-instrumented") | ||
http.Handle("/hello-instrumented", wrappedHandler) | ||
|
||
// And start the HTTP serve. | ||
log.Fatal(http.ListenAndServe(":3030", nil)) | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Assuming that you have a `Tracer` and [exporter](exporting_data.md) configured, this code will: | ||
|
||
* Start an HTTP server on port `3030` | ||
* Automatically generate a span for each inbound HTTP request to `/hello-instrumented` | ||
* Create a child span of the automatically-generated one that tracks the work done in `sleepy` | ||
|
||
Connecting manual instrumentation you write in your app with instrumentation generated from a library is essential to get good observability into your apps and services. | ||
|
||
## Available packages | ||
|
||
A full list of instrumentation libraries available can be found in the [OpenTelementry registry](https://opentelemetry.io/registry/?language=go&component=instrumentation). | ||
|
||
## Next steps | ||
|
||
Instrumentation libraries can do things like generate telemtry data for inbound and outbound HTTP requests, but they don't instrument your actual application. | ||
|
||
To get richer telemetry data, use [manual instrumentatiion](manual_instrumentation.md) to enrich your telemetry data from instrumentation libraries with instrumentation from your running application. |
