otel-nginx: Can this module be used for openresty?

[chrissam]

Just curious if this module can be used for openresty? If not is there any plan to include openresty in future release?

Hi! This hasn't been tested in any way with OpenResty, but I assume the nginx span creation would still work. Regarding OpenResty support, do you mean accessing the tracing context (i.e. creating, modifying spans) in Lua blocks?

And OpenResty support is something that I've been wanting to add, just haven't got to it yet :)

@seemk For now, the nginx span creation should be fine. But yes, would be cool to create and modify it inside lua blocks to get a more deeper insight.

It will work in the nginx case, but I haven't built it with OpenResty and/or CentOS yet.

@seemk do you have any plans doing that?

Hope it coming soon.
