Maple Rust style

Use the official opentelemetry + opentelemetry_sdk crates with opentelemetry-otlp (HTTP exporter, not gRPC). Bridge the tracing crate via tracing-opentelemetry so existing info! / error! calls flow through OTLP.

Cargo.toml

Bootstrap

Inline the endpoint and ingest key — they're a project-scoped, write-only token (Sentry-DSN-shaped).

use opentelemetry::{global, KeyValue};
use opentelemetry_otlp::{LogExporter, MetricExporter, Protocol, SpanExporter, WithExportConfig};

pub fn init() -> Result<(TracerProvider, LoggerProvider, SdkMeterProvider), opentelemetry_otlp::ExporterBuildError> {
    let auth = format!("Bearer {MAPLE_KEY}");
    let mut headers = std::collections::HashMap::new();
    headers.insert("authorization".to_string(), auth);

    let resource = Resource::builder()
        .with_attributes([
            KeyValue::new(SERVICE_NAME, "orders-api"),
            KeyValue::new(DEPLOYMENT_ENVIRONMENT_NAME, std::env::var("DEPLOYMENT_ENV").unwrap_or_else(|_| "development".into())),

        .with(otel_log_layer)
        .init();

    Ok((tracer_provider, logger_provider, meter_provider))
}

Call from main and shut down on exit:

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
    let (tracer_provider, logger_provider, meter_provider) =
        telemetry::init().expect("telemetry init");

    // app run …

    let _ = tracer_provider.shutdown();
    let _ = logger_provider.shutdown();
    let _ = meter_provider.shutdown();
}

Bounded business spans via tracing

The point of bridging tracing is so existing instrumentation works unchanged. Use #[tracing::instrument] on bounded async operations:

#[tracing::instrument(name = "order.submit", skip_all, fields(order.id = %order_id))]
async fn submit_order(order_id: &str) -> Result<(), Error> {
    charge_order(order_id).await?;
    Ok(())
}

tracing::error! and ?err field interpolation will record the exception and set the span status to ERROR via the bridge.

Coexistence

If the project already uses tracing with a Honeycomb / Datadog / Jaeger layer, leave it in place — add Maple's tracing-opentelemetry layer alongside. Don't strip the existing exporter unless the user asks.
