Installation
------------

::

    pip install opentelemetry-sdk-extension-aws

AWS X-Ray IDs Generator
-----------------------

The **AWS X-Ray IDs Generator** provides a custom IDs Generator to make
traces generated using the OpenTelemetry SDKs `TracerProvider` compatible
with the AWS X-Ray backend service `trace ID format`_.

Usage
-----

Configure the OTel SDK TracerProvider with the provided custom IDs Generator to
make spans compatible with the AWS X-Ray backend tracing service.

Install the OpenTelemetry SDK package.

::

    pip install opentelemetry-sdk

Next, use the provided `AwsXRayIdGenerator` to initialize the `TracerProvider`.

.. code-block:: python

    import opentelemetry.trace as trace
    from opentelemetry.sdk.extension.aws.trace import AwsXRayIdGenerator
    from opentelemetry.sdk.trace import TracerProvider

    trace.set_tracer_provider(
        TracerProvider(id_generator=AwsXRayIdGenerator())
    )
