New Project Proposal: Mix task to bootstrap instrmentation of a project

[tsloughter]

A mix task that adds dependencies like opentelemetry_phoenix to a project's mix.exs file if it see's that phoenix is a dependency.

Opening both for discussion and in hopes someone would be interested in picking up this project to add to -contrib.

I would highly recommend taking the approach that Marlus took for Surface's init and convert tools, which makes use of sourceror for making code modifications.

[davydog187]

I have limited time, but I'm definitely interested in helping!

[tsloughter]

Oh nice, thanks for the sourceror suggestion.

[davydog187]

I've been chatting with Marlus and others on the use of Sourceror for applying patches. Relevant issue https://github.com/doorgan/sourceror/issues/64

@davydog187 what's the status here? Sounds like something fun to contribute to, I'd be interested.

[davydog187]

I'm waiting on some work to be done in Sourceror that should be landing soon, then I'm gonna get started. Would you be interested in pairing once it's ready?
