Overriding opentelemetry TraceExporter configuration

[t0xa]

Hello all,

Problem statement:

• I'm deploying quarkus application to Google Cloud Platform (GCP)
• I would like to use Cloud Trace service. Cloud Trace supports Opentelemetry (https://cloud.google.com/trace/docs/setup/java-ot)
• Google provides library com.google.cloud.opentelemetry that takes care of configuring TraceExporter for use in GCP platform.
• I cannot find a way to override TraceExport configuration in quarkus-opentelemetry and quarkus-opentelemetry-exporter-otlp

Could you please point me to right direction?

Thank you in advance

Hi @t0xa.
You can try to create a CDI bean producer for the TraceExporter. Like in here:
https://github.com/quarkusio/quarkus/blob/main/extensions/opentelemetry/runtime/src/main/java/io/quarkus/opentelemetry/runtime/exporter/otlp/OtlpExporterProvider.java
Ideally, we should create a new exporter in quarkiverse here: https://github.com/quarkiverse/quarkus-opentelemetry-exporter
This way, we would only need to include the dependency.

CDI Producer worked for me. Thanks for your help @brunobat
