Usage

OpenTelemetry Memcached Instrumentation allows the user to automatically collect trace data and export them to the backend of choice, to give observability to distributed systems when working with memcached.

To load a specific instrumentation (memcached in this case), specify it in the registerInstrumentations' configuration

const { NodeTracerProvider } = require('@opentelemetry/sdk-trace-node');
const { MemcachedInstrumentation } = require('@opentelemetry/instrumentation-memcached');
const { registerInstrumentations } = require('@opentelemetry/instrumentation');

const provider = new NodeTracerProvider();
provider.register();

registerInstrumentations({
  instrumentations: [
    new MemcachedInstrumentation({
      enhancedDatabaseReporting: false,
    }),
  ],
});

Configuration Options

Option	Type	Example	Description
`enhancedDatabaseReporting`	`boolean`	`false`	Include full command statement in the span - leaks potentially sensitive information to your spans. Defaults to `false`.
