OpenTelemetry.io

This is the source repo for the OpenTelemetry website, project documentation and blog. The site is built using Hugo and hosted on Netlify.

Get involved

If you are new to OpenTelemetry and just get started with it, you are in a perfect position to help us get better: the website and documentation is the entry point for newcomers like you, so if something is unclear or something is missing let us know!

Read on to learn about other ways on how you can help.

Adding a project to the OpenTelemetry Registry

Do you maintain or contribute to an integration for OpenTelemetry? We'd love to feature your project in the registry!

To add your project, submit a pull request. You'll need to create a data file in /content/en/registry for your project. You can find a template in ./templates/registry-entry.md

Submitting a blog post

You can submit a blog post either by forking this repository and writting it locally or by using the GitHub UI. In both cases we ask you to follow the instructions provided by the blog post template.

Fork & Write locally

Follow the setup instructions then, to create a skeletal blog post, run the following command from the repo root:

$ npx hugo new content/en/blog/2022/short-name-for-your-blog-post/index.md

Start editing the markdown file at the path you provided in the previous command. The file is initialized from the blog-post starter under archetypes.

Put assets like images into the folder created.

Once your post is ready, submit it through a pull request.

Using the Github UI

Go to the blog post template and click on Copy raw content at the top right of the menu
Create a new file
Paste the content from the template
Name your file, e.g. content/en/blog/2022/short-name-for-your-blog-post/index.md
Start editing the markdown file
Once your post is ready click on Propose changes at the bottom.
