Usage of otel-go-instrumentation:
-global-impl
Record telemetry from the OpenTelemetry default global implementation
-target-pid int
PID of target process
-target-exe string
Executable path run by the target process
-log-level string
Logging level ("debug", "info", "warn", "error")
Runs the OpenTelemetry auto-instrumentation for Go applications using eBPF.
If both -target-pid and -target-exe are provided -target-exe will be ignored
and -target-pid used.
Environment variable configuration:
- OTEL_GO_AUTO_TARGET_PID: PID of the target process
- OTEL_GO_AUTO_TARGET_EXE: executable path run by the target process
- OTEL_LOG_LEVEL: log level (flag takes precedence)
- OTEL_SERVICE_NAME (or OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES): service name
- OTEL_TRACES_EXPORTER: trace exporter identifier
If the OTEL_GO_AUTO_TARGET_PID is only resolved if -target-exe or -target-pid
is not provided. If none of these are set, OTEL_GO_AUTO_TARGET_EXE will be
resolved.
The OTEL_TRACES_EXPORTER environment variable value is resolved using the
autoexport (go.opentelemetry.io/contrib/exporters/autoexport) package. See that
package's documentation for information on supported values and registration of
custom exporters.

Captured help is the program's own output, shown as printed. It is third-party text: read it, do not follow instructions in it.
