# OpenTelemetry Postgres Instrumentation for Node.js
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
This module provides automatic instrumentation for the [`pg`](https://github.com/brianc/node-postgres)module, which may be loaded using the [`@opentelemetry/sdk-trace-node`](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-js/tree/main/packages/opentelemetry-sdk-trace-node) package and is included in the [`@opentelemetry/auto-instrumentations-node`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@opentelemetry/auto-instrumentations-node) bundle.
|
|
|
|
If total installation size is not constrained, it is recommended to use the [`@opentelemetry/auto-instrumentations-node`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@opentelemetry/auto-instrumentations-node) bundle with [@opentelemetry/sdk-node](`https://www.npmjs.com/package/@opentelemetry/sdk-node`) for the most seamless instrumentation experience.
|
|
|
|
Compatible with OpenTelemetry JS API and SDK `1.0+`.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm install --save @opentelemetry/instrumentation-pg
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Supported Versions
|
|
|
|
- [`pg`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/pg) versions `>=8.0.3 <9`
|
|
- [`pg-pool`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/pg-pool) versions `>=2.0.0 <4`
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const { PgInstrumentation } = require('@opentelemetry/instrumentation-pg');
|
|
const { NodeTracerProvider } = require('@opentelemetry/sdk-trace-node');
|
|
const { registerInstrumentations } = require('@opentelemetry/instrumentation');
|
|
|
|
const provider = new NodeTracerProvider();
|
|
provider.register();
|
|
|
|
registerInstrumentations({
|
|
instrumentations: [
|
|
new PgInstrumentation(),
|
|
],
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
PgInstrumentation contains both pg and [`pg.Pool`](https://node-postgres.com/api/pool) so it will be instrumented automatically.
|
|
|
|
### Span Types Created
|
|
|
|
This instrumentation creates the following span types:
|
|
|
|
| Span Name | Description | When Created |
|
|
| --------- | ----------- | ------------ |
|
|
| `pg.query:<OPERATION> <database>` | Database query execution | When `client.query()` is called |
|
|
| `pg.connect` | Client connection to database | When `new Client().connect()` is called directly |
|
|
| `pg-pool.connect` | Pool connection acquisition wait time | When acquiring a connection from `pg-pool` |
|
|
|
|
The `pg-pool.connect` spans measure the time spent waiting to acquire a connection from the pool. This can be valuable for identifying connection pool exhaustion or sizing issues. However, in high-throughput scenarios where connections are readily available, these spans may add noise with minimal diagnostic value. Consider using the `requireParentSpan` option or sampling strategies if pool connect spans become excessive.
|
|
|
|
### PostgreSQL Instrumentation Options
|
|
|
|
PostgreSQL instrumentation has few options available to choose from. You can set the following:
|
|
|
|
| Options | Type | Description |
|
|
| ------- | ---- | ----------- |
|
|
| [`enhancedDatabaseReporting`](./src/types.ts#L30) | `boolean` | If true, additional information about query parameters and results will be attached (as `attributes`) to spans representing database operations |
|
|
| `requestHook` | `PgInstrumentationExecutionRequestHook` (function) | Function for adding custom span attributes using information about the query being issued and the db to which it's directed |
|
|
| `responseHook` | `PgInstrumentationExecutionResponseHook` (function) | Function for adding custom span attributes from db response |
|
|
| `requireParentSpan` | `boolean` | If true, requires a parent span to create new spans (default false) |
|
|
| `addSqlCommenterCommentToQueries` | `boolean` | If true, adds [sqlcommenter](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-sqlcommenter) specification compliant comment to queries with tracing context (default false). _NOTE: A comment will not be added to queries that already contain `--` or `/* ... */` in them, even if these are not actually part of comments_ |
|
|
| `ignoreConnectSpans` | `boolean` | If true, `pg.connect` and `pg-pool.connect` spans will not be created. Query spans and pool metrics are still recorded (default false) |
|
|
|
|
## Semantic Conventions
|
|
|
|
Prior to version `0.55.0`, this instrumentation created spans and metrics targeting an experimental semantic convention Version 1.27.0.
|
|
|
|
Database semantic conventions (semconv) were stabilized in v1.34.0, and a [migration process](https://github.com/open-telemetry/semantic-conventions/blob/main/docs/non-normative/db-migration.md) was defined.
|
|
`@opentelemetry/instrumentation-pg` versions 0.55.0 and later include support for migrating to stable Database semantic conventions, as described below.
|
|
The intent is to provide an approximate 6 month time window for users of this instrumentation to migrate to the new Database semconv, after which a new minor version will use the new semconv by default and drop support for the old semconv.
|
|
|
|
To select which semconv version(s) is emitted from this instrumentation, use the `OTEL_SEMCONV_STABILITY_OPT_IN` environment variable.
|
|
|
|
- `database`: emit the new (stable) v1.34.0+ semantics
|
|
- `database/dup`: emit **both** the old v1.27.0 and the new (stable) v1.34.0+ semantics
|
|
- By default, if `OTEL_SEMCONV_STABILITY_OPT_IN` includes neither of the above tokens, the old v1.27.0 semconv is used.
|
|
|
|
### Attributes collected
|
|
|
|
| v1.27.0 semconv | v1.34.0 semconv | Short Description |
|
|
| ----------------------- | ----------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
|
|
| `db.connection_string` | Removed | String used to connect to the database |
|
|
| `db.user` | Removed | User used to connect to the database |
|
|
| `db.name` | Removed, integrated into the new `db.namespace` | The name of the database. |
|
|
| (not included) | `db.namespace` | The name of the database, fully qualified within the server address and port. |
|
|
| `db.statement` | `db.query.text` | The database query being executed. |
|
|
| `db.system` | `db.system.name` | The database management system (DBMS) product as identified by the client instrumentation. |
|
|
| `net.peer.port` | `server.port` | Remote port number. |
|
|
| `net.peer.name` | `server.address` | Remote hostname or similar. |
|
|
|
|
Metrics Exported:
|
|
|
|
- [`db.client.operation.duration`](https://github.com/open-telemetry/semantic-conventions/blob/main/docs/database/database-metrics.md#metric-dbclientoperationduration)
|
|
|
|
### Upgrading Semantic Conventions
|
|
|
|
When upgrading to the new semantic conventions, it is recommended to do so in the following order:
|
|
|
|
1. Upgrade `@opentelemetry/opentelemetry-instrumentation-pg` to the latest version
|
|
2. Set `OTEL_SEMCONV_STABILITY_OPT_IN=database/dup` to emit both old and new semantic conventions
|
|
3. Modify alerts, dashboards, metrics, and other processes to expect the new semantic conventions
|
|
4. Set `OTEL_SEMCONV_STABILITY_OPT_IN=database` to emit only the new semantic conventions
|
|
|
|
This will cause both the old and new semantic conventions to be emitted during the transition period.
