@opentelemetry/instrumentation-redis v0.43.0
OpenTelemetry redis Instrumentation for Node.js
This module provides automatic instrumentation for the redis
module versions >=2.6.0 <4
, which may be loaded using the @opentelemetry/sdk-trace-node
package and is included in the @opentelemetry/auto-instrumentations-node
bundle.
If total installation size is not constrained, it is recommended to use the @opentelemetry/auto-instrumentations-node
bundle with @opentelemetry/sdk-node for the most seamless instrumentation experience.
Compatible with OpenTelemetry JS API and SDK 1.0+
.
Installation
npm install --save @opentelemetry/instrumentation-redis
Supported Versions
redis
versions>=2.6.0 <4
For versions redis@^4.0.0
, please use @opentelemetry/instrumentation-redis-4
Usage
OpenTelemetry Redis Instrumentation allows the user to automatically collect trace data and export them to the backend of choice, to give observability to distributed systems when working with redis.
To load a specific instrumentation (redis in this case), specify it in the registerInstrumentations' configuration
const { NodeTracerProvider } = require('@opentelemetry/sdk-trace-node');
const { RedisInstrumentation } = require('@opentelemetry/instrumentation-redis');
const { registerInstrumentations } = require('@opentelemetry/instrumentation');
const provider = new NodeTracerProvider();
provider.register();
registerInstrumentations({
instrumentations: [
new RedisInstrumentation(),
],
})
See examples/redis for a short example.
Redis Instrumentation Options
Redis instrumentation has a few options available to choose from. You can set the following:
Options | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
dbStatementSerializer | DbStatementSerializer (function) | Redis instrumentation will serialize the command to the db.statement attribute using the specified function. |
responseHook | RedisResponseCustomAttributeFunction (function) | Function for adding custom attributes on db response. Receives params: span, moduleVersion, cmdName, cmdArgs |
requireParentSpan | boolean | Require parent to create redis span, default when unset is false. |
Custom db.statement
Serializer
The instrumentation serializes the command into a Span attribute called db.statement
. The standard serialization format attempts to be as informative as possible while avoiding the export of potentially sensitive data. The number of serialized arguments depends on the specific command, see the configuration
list in @opentelemetry/redis-common
.
It is also possible to define a custom serialization function. The function will receive the command name and arguments and must return a string.
Here is a simple example to serialize the command name and all command arguments. Notice that it might capture sensitive data and big payloads:
const { RedisInstrumentation } = require('@opentelemetry/instrumentation-redis');
const redisInstrumentation = new RedisInstrumentation({
dbStatementSerializer: function (cmdName, cmdArgs) {
return [cmdName, ...cmdArgs].join(" ");
},
});
Semantic Conventions
This package uses @opentelemetry/semantic-conventions
version 1.22+
, which implements Semantic Convention Version 1.7.0
Attributes collected:
Attribute | Short Description |
---|---|
db.connection_string | URL to Redis server address, of the form redis://host:port |
db.statement | Executed Redis statement |
db.system | Database identifier; always redis |
net.peer.name | Hostname or IP of the connected Redis server |
net.peer.port | Port of the connected Redis server |
