OTEL-071: logging exporter deprecated (renamed to debug in v0.111.0)

Severity: warn (advisory)

Rule Details​

The exporter previously named logging was renamed to debug in OpenTelemetry Collector v0.111.0. Both names currently work but logging is slated for removal. Renaming is a mechanical find-and-replace and buys you one fewer deprecation warning in the Collector logs.

This rule fires when an exporter whose base name is logging is declared.

Options​

This rule has no options.

Examples​

Avoid
exporters:
  logging: {}
Prefer
exporters:
  debug: {}

When Not To Use It​

Collectors pinned to a version older than v0.111.0 where the debug name does not yet exist. Upgrade and rename.

  • OTEL-015 — debug/logging exporter detected
  • OTEL-072 — OpenCensus receiver/exporter deprecated

Version​

Available since augur v0.1.0.
