Описание

OpenTelemetry can be used to report various monitoring data (including metrics, logs and traces) and is a de-facto industry standard.

This mod provides additional instrumentation for the OpenTelemetry JavaAgent so that various game metrics can be reported. The overall functionality is similar to fabric-exporter.

Instrumented/Reported metrics

MSPT/TPS
Loaded chunks
Server state
Networking
- connections
- handshakes
- packets sent/received
Chunk generation
Entities
- grouped by type, spawn ground and world/dimension
Players
- by world
- online
- total xp (score)
- xp level
Runtime
- game version
- Fabric version
Optional data from spark

Setup

Make sure you have an endpoint where OpenTelemetry data can be ingested.
This could be a OpenTelemetry Collector hosted by you or by someone else (e.g. in the Grafana Cloud).
Setup the OpenTelemetry Java Agent so that it sends data to your ingestion service.
Add the OpenTelemetry Agent Helper Extension for Fabric.
- This is required so that the OpenTelemetry Agent is correctly detecting and utilizing the mod.
Simply add and (optionally) configure this mod. It should work out of the box.
Import the provided dashboard into Grafana
- From Grafana Dashboards
- From the local demo in the repo

Configuration

The configuration is dynamically loaded from (sorted by highest priority)

Environment variables
- prefixed with OIE_
- all properties are in UPPERCASE and use _ instead of . or -
System properties
- prefixed with oie.
A configuration file located in .config/oie.json

Full list of configuration options

Please note that the preconfigured values usually work out of the box.
You should know exactly what you're doing when doing modifications.

General

Property	Type	Default	Notes
`instrumentation-name`	`String`	`minecraft`	Used as `instrumentationScopeName`. A name uniquely identifying the instrumentation scope, such as the instrumentation library, package, or fully qualified class name. Must not be null.
`strip-identifier-namespaces`	`bool`	`true`	Removes namespaces from `Identifier`. Disabling this causes identifiers to look like this `minecraft:overworld` instead of `overworld`. Usually only required for heavily modded servers.

Metrics

Property	Type	Default	Notes
`metrics.freeze-when-server-paused`	`bool`	`true`	Stop fetching certain metrics when the server is paused and uses previously cached values. This optimization usually improves the sampling speed for affected metrics by >10x. Outcomes vary and depend on the work required for fetching and how often the server enters idle mode. If the server is not using `pauseWhenEmptySeconds` (set to <= 0) this optimization will be ignored.
`metrics.prefix`	`String`	`minecraft_`	Prefix for all metrics
`metrics.counter-suffix`	`String`	`_total`	Suffix for counters
`metrics.enabled-only`	`List<String>`	-	Only enables the specified metrics. ALL OTHER METRICS WILL BE DISABLED!
`metrics.enabled-additionally`	`List<String>`	-	Additionally enables the specified metrics. This is only relevant for metrics that are not enabled out of the box.
`metrics.disabled`	`List<String>`	-	Disables the specified metrics
`metrics.enable-player-details-samplers`	`bool`	`true`	Determines if the `PlayerDetailsSamplers` (e.g. Online, TotalXP, XPLevel) are enabled
