TracerProvider[F[_]] is the entry point of the tracing API. It provides access to Tracer instances for instrumenting your application.

​
Overview

The TracerProvider is responsible for creating and managing Tracer instances. Each tracer is associated with an instrumentation scope, typically identified by the library or package name.

​
Methods

​
get

​
name
String
required
The name of the instrumentation scope, such as the instrumentation library, package, or fully qualified class name
Returns: F[Tracer[F]] Creates a named Tracer instance. 
val tracerProvider: TracerProvider[IO] = ???
val tracer: IO[Tracer[IO]] = tracerProvider.get("com.service.runtime")

​
tracer

​
name
String
required
The name of the instrumentation scope, such as the instrumentation library, package, or fully qualified class name
Returns: TracerBuilder[F] Creates a TracerBuilder for a named Tracer instance. The builder allows you to configure additional metadata such as version and schema URL. 
val tracerProvider: TracerProvider[IO] = ???
val tracer: IO[Tracer[IO]] = tracerProvider
  .tracer("com.service.runtime")
  .withVersion("1.0.0")
  .withSchemaUrl("https://opentelemetry.io/schema/v1.1.0")
  .get

​
liftTo

​
G[_]
Type Parameter
required
The target effect type with a MonadCancelThrow instance
Returns: TracerProvider[G] Modifies the context F using an implicit KindTransformer from F to G. This allows you to transform the provider to work with a different effect type. Requirements:
  • Implicit MonadCancelThrow[F]
  • Implicit MonadCancelThrow[G]
  • Implicit KindTransformer[F, G]

​
Companion Object

​
apply

Returns: TracerProvider[F] Summons an implicit TracerProvider[F] instance from the context. 
val provider = TracerProvider[IO]

​
noop

​
F[_]
Type Parameter
required
The effect type with an Applicative instance
Returns: TracerProvider[F] Creates a no-op implementation of the TracerProvider. Both the provider and the TracerBuilder it creates have no-op implementations. 
val noopProvider: TracerProvider[IO] = TracerProvider.noop[IO]
