Example for graphql-go OpenTelemetry instrumentation

This example consists of a server that runs a GraphQL handler and a client that makes requests to the server. First, you should run the server and then run the client.

Server

You can run the server with different exporters by providing environment variables.

Stdout exporter (default):

go run server.go

Jaeger exporter:

OTEL_EXPORTER_JAEGER_ENDPOINT=http://localhost:14268/api/traces go run server.go

Uptrace exporter:

UPTRACE_DSN="https://<token>@uptrace.dev/<project_id>" go run server.go

Client

To run the client:

./make_calls.sh
