## README

# OpenTelemetry mongoose Instrumentation for Node.js

[![NPM Published Version][npm-img]][npm-url]
[![Apache License][license-image]][license-image]

This module provides automatic instrumentation for the [`mongoose`](https://github.com/Automattic/mongoose) module.

If total installation size is not constrained, it is recommended to use the [`@opentelemetry/auto-instrumentations-node`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@opentelemetry/auto-instrumentations-node) bundle with [@opentelemetry/sdk-node](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@opentelemetry/sdk-node) for the most seamless instrumentation experience.

Compatible with OpenTelemetry JS API and SDK `1.0+`.

## Installation

```bash
npm install --save @opentelemetry/instrumentation-mongoose
```

## Supported Versions

- [`mongoose`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/mongoose) versions `>=5.9.7 <10`

## Usage

To enable a specific instrumentation, pass it to `registerInstrumentations()`.
This is commonly done via `NodeSDK` for fully setting up all OpenTelemetry SDK components:

```js
const { NodeSDK } = require('@opentelemetry/sdk-node');
const { MongooseInstrumentation } = require('@opentelemetry/instrumentation-mongoose');

const sdk = new NodeSDK({
  instrumentations: [
    new MongooseInstrumentation(),
  ],
});
sdk.start();
process.once('beforeExit', async () => { await sdk.shutdown(); });
```

## Semantic Conventions

This instrumentation uses Semantic Conventions for database calls and network.

The `instrumentation-mongoose` versions 0.66.0 and later emit the stable v1.33.0+ semantic conventions.

| `db.query.text`      | The database statement being executed (only set when `dbStatementSerializer` is configured). |

| `server.port`        | Remote port number.                                                                          |
