OpenTelemetry Protobuf Zig

OpenTelemetry Protobuf definitions packaged for Zig.

---

This repository checks out the official OpenTelemetry Protobuf definitions in a submodule and contains a Zig build to expose the generated Zig code as a package.

Import the package

The following command will checkout the latest avaiable commit on main, which should also be the latest tagged version.

zig fetch --save "git+https://github.com/zig-o11y/opentelemetry-proto"

To specify a tag, add the ref (e.g. v1.6.0 tag).

zig fetch --save "git+https://github.com/zig-o11y/opentelemetry-proto#v1.6.0"

Tags in this repository will mirror the tags in the OpenTelemetry official repository.

Generate the code for a new release

When a new tag is added in the upstream repository, there is a build step we can use to update the generated code. Pick a tag from the upstream repo, say <vX.Y.Z>, and run:

zig build update-tag -Dtag=<vX.Y.Z>

Dependencies
