Resources

Um recurso representa a entidade que está gerando telemetria como atributos do recurso. Por exemplo, um processo que está gerando telemetria e que está sendo executado em um container no Kubernetes tem o nome de um processo, um nome de pod, um namespace e possivelmente um nome de deployment. Todos esses quatro atributos podem ser incluídos em um recurso.

No seu backend de observabilidade, você pode usar as informações de um recurso para refinar a investigação de comportamentos relevantes. Por exemplo, se seus dados de rastros ou métricas indicarem latência no seu sistema, você pode restringir a investigação para um determinado container, pod ou deployment do Kubernetes.

Setup

Follow the instructions in the Getting Started, so that you have a running .NET app exporting data to the console.

Adding resources with environment variables

You can use the OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES environment variable to inject resources into your application. The .NET SDK will automatically detect these resources.

The following example adds Service, Host and OS resource attributes via environment variables, running unix programs like uname to generate the resource data.

$ env OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES="service.name=resource-tutorial-dotnet,service.namespace=tutorial,service.version=1.0,service.instance.id=`uuidgen`,host.name=`HOSTNAME`,host.type=`uname -m`,os.name=`uname -s`,os.version=`uname -r`" dotnet run

Activity.TraceId:          d1cbb7787440cc95b325835cb2ff8018
Activity.SpanId:           2ca007300fcb3068
Activity.TraceFlags:           Recorded
Activity.ActivitySourceName: tutorial-dotnet
Activity.DisplayName: SayHello
Activity.Kind:        Internal
Activity.StartTime:   2022-10-02T13:31:12.0175090Z
Activity.Duration:    00:00:00.0003920
Activity.Tags:
    foo: 1
    bar: Hello, World!
    baz: [1,2,3]
Resource associated with Activity:
    service.name: resource-tutorial-dotnet
    service.namespace: tutorial
    service.version: 1.0
    service.instance.id: 93B14BAD-813D-48EE-9FB1-2ADFD07C5E78
    host.name: myhost
    host.type: arm64
    os.name: Darwin
    os.version: 21.6.0

Adding resources in code

You can also add custom resources in code by attaching them to a ResourceBuilder.

The following example builds on the getting started sample and adds two custom resources, environment.name and team.name in code:

using System.Diagnostics;
using System.Collections.Generic;

using OpenTelemetry;
using OpenTelemetry.Trace;
using OpenTelemetry.Resources;

var serviceName = "resource-tutorial-dotnet";
var serviceVersion = "1.0";

var resourceBuilder =
    ResourceBuilder
        .CreateDefault()
        .AddService(serviceName: serviceName, serviceVersion: serviceVersion)
        .AddAttributes(new Dictionary<string, object>
        {
            ["environment.name"] = "production",
            ["team.name"] = "backend"
        });

var sourceName = "tutorial-dotnet";

using var tracerProvider = Sdk.CreateTracerProviderBuilder()
    .AddSource(sourceName)
    .SetResourceBuilder(resourceBuilder)
    .AddConsoleExporter()
    .Build();

var MyActivitySource = new ActivitySource(sourceName);

using var activity = MyActivitySource.StartActivity("SayHello");
activity?.SetTag("foo", 1);
activity?.SetTag("bar", "Hello, World!");
activity?.SetTag("baz", new int[] { 1, 2, 3 });

In this example, the service.name and service.version values are set in code as well. Additionally, service.instance.id gets a default value.

If you run the same command as in Adding resources with environment variables, but this time without service.name service.version, and service.instance.id, you’ll see the environment.name and team.name resources in the resource list:

$ env OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES="service.namespace=tutorial,host.name=`HOSTNAME`,host.type=`uname -m`,os.name=`uname -s`,os.version=`uname -r`" dotnet run

Activity.TraceId:          d1cbb7787440cc95b325835cb2ff8018
Activity.SpanId:           2ca007300fcb3068
Activity.TraceFlags:           Recorded
Activity.ActivitySourceName: tutorial-dotnet
Activity.DisplayName: SayHello
Activity.Kind:        Internal
Activity.StartTime:   2022-10-02T13:31:12.0175090Z
Activity.Duration:    00:00:00.0003920
Activity.Tags:
    foo: 1
    bar: Hello, World!
    baz: [1,2,3]
Resource associated with Activity:
    environment.name: production
    team.name: backend
    service.name: resource-tutorial-dotnet
    service.namespace: tutorial
    service.version: 1.0
    service.instance.id: 28976A1C-BF02-43CA-BAE0-6E0564431462
    host.name: pcarter
    host.type: arm64
    os.name: Darwin
    os.version: 21.6.0

Note: If you set resource attributes with both environment variables and code, the values in code take precedence.

Next steps

There are more resource detectors you can add to your configuration, for example to get details about your Cloud environment or Deployment.
