Add pages about resources & resource detection to concept & languages

Open svrnm opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

Add a new page to “concepts“ that talks about resources & detection in a general way

If available&applicable, add a page about resources & resource detection for each language, similar to this one:

  • What resources are detected automatically?
  • Adding resources via OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES
  • Adding resources in code
  • Adding a (non default) resource detector (e.g. container)

TODO:

  • [ ] Concept
  • [ ] C++
  • [ ] .NET (WIP, #1795, @cartermp)
  • [ ] Erlang/Elixir
  • [ ] Go
  • [ ] Java
  • [x] JavaScript
  • [ ] PHP
  • [ ] Python
  • [ ] Ruby
  • [ ] Rust
  • [ ] Swift

Note, I added all languages to get started, if this is not applicable for some of them, we can remove them.

Added also that we need a page that talks about the concept of resources and how they are detected

I list them here: https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry.io/issues/3686, but we can also pin some of them directly
