All notable changes to OpenTelemetry Go Automatic Instrumentation are documented in this file.
The format is based on Keep a Changelog.
OpenTelemetry Go Automatic Instrumentation adheres to Semantic Versioning.
- The SDK provided in
go.opentelemtry.io/auto/sdk
now defaults to NoOp behavior for unimplemented methods of the OpenTelemetry API. This is changed from causing a compilation error for unimplemented methods. (#1230) - The
GetTracerProvider
fucntion ingo.opentelemtry.io/auto/sdk
is renamed toTracerProvider
. (#1231)

- The
"golang.org/x/net/http2".FrameHeader.StreamID
offset for version0.8.0
is corrected. (#1208) - The

is added. This flag, when used, enables the instrumentation of the OpenTelemetry default global implementation (https://pkg.go.dev/go.opentelemetry.io/otel).

. (#507) - The instrumentation for
client.Do
was changed to instrumentation forTransport.roundTrip
. (#529)
- Support commit hash version for dependencies. If a dependency falls within a known version range used by instrumentation, and its offset structure has not changed, instrumentation will default to the known offset value instead of failing to run. (#503)
v0.8.0-alpha - 2023-11-14
- Add the
WithEnv
InstrumentationOption
to configureInstrumentation
to parse the environment. TheInstrumentation
will no longer by default parse the environment. This option needs to be used to enable environment parsing, and the order it is passed influences the environment precedence. All options passed before this one will be overridden if there are conflicts, and those passed after will override the environment. (#417) - Add the
WithTraceExporter
InstrumentationOption
to configure the traceSpanExporter
used by anInstrumentation
. (#426) - Add HTTP status code attribute to
net/http
server instrumentation. (#428) - The instrumentation scope now includes the version of the auto-instrumentation project. (#442)

method allowing end-users to provide their own implementation of OpenTelemetry sampler directly through the package API. (#468). - Add uprobes to
execDC
in order to instrument SQL DML. (#475)
- Documentation no longer says that
SYS_PTRACE
capability is needed. (#388) - The
NewInstrumentation
no longer parses environment variables by default. Use the newWithEnv
option to enable environment parsing. (#417) NewInstrumentation
now requires acontext.Context
as its first argument. This context is used in the instantiation of exporters. (#426)Instrumentation
now uses an OTLP over HTTP/protobuf exporter (changed from gRPC/protobuf). (#426)
- Parse Go versions that contain
GOEXPERIMENT
suffixes. (#389) - Include the schema URL for the semantic convention used in the exported resource. (#426)
- Support Go module
replace
directives for thegolang.org/x/net

server instrumentation. (#450)
