The OpenTelemetry SDK provides a working implementation of the API, and can be set up and configured in a number of ways.

Manual setup

Setting up an SDK manually gives you the most control over the SDK’s configuration:

<?php
$exporter = new InMemoryExporter();
$meterProvider = new NoopMeterProvider();
$tracerProvider =  new TracerProvider(
    new BatchSpanProcessor(
        $exporter,
        ClockFactory::getDefault(),
        2048, //max queue size
        5000, //export timeout
        1024, //max batch size
        true, //auto flush
        $meterProvider
    )
);

SDK Builder

The SDK builder provides a convenient interface to configure parts of the SDK. However, it doesn’t support all of the features that manual setup does.

<?php

$spanExporter = new InMemoryExporter(); //mock exporter for demonstration purposes

$meterProvider = MeterProvider::builder()
    ->addReader(
        new ExportingReader(new MetricExporter((new StreamTransportFactory())->create(STDOUT, 'application/x-ndjson'), /*Temporality::CUMULATIVE*/))
    )
    ->build();

$tracerProvider = TracerProvider::builder()
    ->addSpanProcessor(
        (new BatchSpanProcessorBuilder($spanExporter))
            ->setMeterProvider($meterProvider)
            ->build()
    )
    ->build();

$loggerProvider = LoggerProvider::builder()
    ->addLogRecordProcessor(
        new SimpleLogsProcessor(
            (new ConsoleExporterFactory())->create()
        )
    )
    ->setResource(ResourceInfo::create(Attributes::create(['foo' => 'bar'])))
    ->build();

Sdk::builder()
    ->setTracerProvider($tracerProvider)
    ->setLoggerProvider($loggerProvider)
    ->setMeterProvider($meterProvider)
    ->setPropagator(TraceContextPropagator::getInstance())
    ->setAutoShutdown(true)
    ->buildAndRegisterGlobal();

Autoloading

The SDK can be automatically configured and globally registered as part of composer autoloading. The only requirement for this is that you set OTEL_PHP_AUTOLOAD_ENABLED=true. The configuration can be provided in different ways:

Environment configuration

Environment variables (or the corresponding php.ini setting) can provide any required/non-standard configuration as set out in SDK configuration.

For example:

OTEL_PHP_AUTOLOAD_ENABLED=true \
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_PROTOCOL=grpc \
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT=http://collector:4317 \
php example.php
<?php
require 'vendor/autoload.php'; //sdk autoloading happens as part of composer initialization

$tracer = OpenTelemetry\API\Globals::tracerProvider()->getTracer('name', 'version', 'schema.url', [/*attributes*/]);
$meter = OpenTelemetry\API\Globals::meterProvider()->getMeter('name', 'version', 'schema.url', [/*attributes*/]);

Declarative configuration

PHP supports OpenTelemetry’s experimental Declarative Configuration, where the SDK can be configured through a YAML file.

To enable this, set OTEL_EXPERIMENTAL_CONFIG_FILE=/path/to/config.yaml where config.yaml is a file which conforms to the declarative configuration schema, for example:

config.yaml:

file_format: '0.4'
tracer_provider:
  processors:
    - batch:
        exporter:
          otlp_http:
            endpoint: http://localhost:4318/v1/traces
resource:
  attributes:
    - name: service.name
      value: ${OTEL_SERVICE_NAME}
    - name: service.namespace
      value: my_service_namespace
OTEL_PHP_AUTOLOAD_ENABLED=true \
OTEL_EXPERIMENTAL_CONFIG_FILE=/path/to/config.yaml
php example.php

The existence of OTEL_EXPERIMENTAL_CONFIG_FILE will cause the autoloader to attempt to configure with the provided config file, and other environment variables will be ignored.

Excluded URLs

You can disable SDK autoloading if the request URL matches a regular expression. Matching an excluded URL prevents any telemetry from being generated or exported. You can use this feature in a shared-nothing PHP runtime like Apache or NGINX, for requests such as health checks.

For example, the following configuration turns off telemetry for requests such as https://site/client/123/info and https://site/xyz/healthcheck:

OTEL_PHP_EXCLUDED_URLS="client/.*/info,healthcheck"

Configuration

The PHP SDK supports most of the available configuration options. For conformance details, see the compliance matrix.

There are also a number of PHP-specific configurations:

NameDefault valueValuesExampleDescription
OTEL_PHP_TRACES_PROCESSORbatchbatch, simplesimpleSpan processor selection
OTEL_PHP_DETECTORSallenv, host, os, process, process_runtime, sdk, sdk_provided, containerenv,os,processResource detector selection

OTEL_PHP_LOG_DESTINATIONdefaulterror_log, stderr, stdout, psr3, nonestderrWhere internal errors and warnings will be sent
OTEL_PHP_INTERNAL_METRICS_ENABLEDfalsetrue, falsetrueWhether the SDK should emit metrics about its internal state (for example, batch processors)
OTEL_PHP_DISABLED_INSTRUMENTATIONS[]Instrumentation names, or allpsr15,psr18Disable one or more installed auto-instrumentations
OTEL_PHP_EXCLUDED_URLS``Comma-delimited regular expression patternsclient/.*/info,healthcheckDo not load the SDK if request URL matches one of the supplied regular expressions
OTEL_PHP_DEBUG_SCOPES_DISABLEDfalsetrue, falsetrueTurn on or off scope detachment debugging.
OTEL_PHP_EXPERIMENTAL_AUTO_ROOT_SPANfalsetrue, falsetrueStart a root span during composer autoloading

Configurations can be provided as environment variables, or via php.ini (or a file included by php.ini)

OTEL_PHP_AUTOLOAD_ENABLED="true"
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_PROTOCOL=grpc
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT=http://collector:4317
