7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
145+
agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
146+
Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
147+
WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
148+
implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
149+
of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
150+
PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
151+
appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
152+
risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
153+
154+
8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
155+
whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
156+
unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
157+
negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
158+
liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
159+
incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
160+
result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
161+
Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
162+
work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
163+
other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
164+
has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
165+
166+
9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
167+
the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
168+
and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
169+
or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
170+
License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
171+
on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
172+
of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
173+
defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
174+
incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
175+

OpenTelemetry instrumentation for gRPC clients and servers in Elixir, enabling distributed tracing, error tracking, and context propagation across services.
7+
8+
This library provides comprehensive tracing for gRPC applications, supporting both client and server instrumentation with proper context propagation according to OpenTelemetry semantic conventions.
9+
10+
## Features
11+
12+
- **Client Instrumentation**: Automatic tracing of outgoing gRPC requests
13+
- **Server Instrumentation**: Automatic tracing of incoming gRPC requests
14+
- **Context Propagation**: Proper trace context propagation between services
15+
- **Error Handling**: Comprehensive error tracking and status reporting using gRPC status codes
16+
- **Semantic Conventions**: Follows OpenTelemetry semantic conventions for RPC
17+
18+
## Installation
19+
20+
Add `opentelemetry_grpc` to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`:
21+
22+
```elixir
23+
def deps do
24+
[
25+
{:opentelemetry_grpc, "~> 1.0"}
26+
]
27+
end
28+
```
29+
30+
## Usage
31+
32+
### Basic Setup
33+
34+
For most applications, you can set up both client and server instrumentation:
35+
36+
```elixir
37+
# In your application startup (e.g., Application.start/2)
38+
OpentelemetryGrpc.setup()
39+
```
40+
41+
### Client Instrumentation
42+
43+
To instrument only gRPC client calls:
44+
45+
```elixir
46+
OpentelemetryGrpc.Client.setup()
47+
```
48+
49+
For context propagation in client requests, add the interceptor to your gRPC channel. The OpenTelemetry interceptor should typically be the first in the list to ensure proper context propagation:
50+
51+
```elixir
52+
{:ok, channel} = GRPC.Stub.connect("localhost:50051",
53+
interceptors: [OpentelemetryGrpc.ContextPropagatorInterceptor])
54+
55+
# Use the channel for your gRPC calls
56+
MyService.Stub.my_method(channel, request)
57+
```
58+
59+
### Server Instrumentation
60+
61+
To instrument only gRPC server requests:
62+
63+
```elixir
64+
OpentelemetryGrpc.Server.setup()
65+
```
66+
67+
By default, server instrumentation includes context propagation from incoming request headers. To control span relationships:
68+
69+
```elixir
70+
# Create child spans (default) - spans should be part of the same trace
71+
OpentelemetryGrpc.Server.setup(span_relationship: :child)
72+
73+
# Create span links instead of parent-child relationships - use for fire-and-forget or detached async processing
74+
OpentelemetryGrpc.Server.setup(span_relationship: :link)
75+
76+
# Disable context propagation entirely - useful for isolated traces
77+
OpentelemetryGrpc.Server.setup(span_relationship: :none)
78+
```
79+
80+
### Advanced Configuration
81+
82+
You can pass server-specific options through the main setup function:
83+
84+
```elixir
85+
OpentelemetryGrpc.setup(server: [span_relationship: :link])
86+
```
87+
88+
## Context Propagation
89+
90+
The library supports OpenTelemetry context propagation:
91+
92+
- **Client**: Use `OpentelemetryGrpc.ContextPropagatorInterceptor` to inject trace context into outgoing requests
93+
- **Server**: Context is automatically extracted from incoming request headers (when enabled)

32+
33+

57+
To set up both client and server instrumentation:
58+
