Provides OpenTelemetry instrumentation for the jackc/pgx library.

Requirements

Usage

Install the library:

Create the tracer as part of your connection:

cfg, err := pgxpool.ParseConfig(connString)
if err != nil {
    return nil, fmt.Errorf("create connection pool: %w", err)
}

cfg.ConnConfig.Tracer = otelpgx.NewTracer()

conn, err := pgxpool.NewWithConfig(ctx, cfg)
if err != nil {
    return nil, fmt.Errorf("connect to database: %w", err)
}
