OpenTelemetry SDK configuration
===============================

[](#opentelemetry-sdk-configuration)

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

[](#installation)

```
composer require open-telemetry/sdk-configuration
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### Initialization from [configuration file](https://opentelemetry.io/docs/specs/otel/configuration/file-configuration/)

[](#initialization-from-configuration-file)

```
$configuration = Configuration::parseFile(__DIR__ . '/kitchen-sink.yaml');
$sdkBuilder = $configuration->create();
```

#### Performance considerations

[](#performance-considerations)

Parsing and processing the configuration is rather expensive. It is highly recommended to provide the `$cacheFile`parameter when running in a shared-nothing setup.

```
$configuration = Configuration::parseFile(
    __DIR__ . '/kitchen-sink.yaml',
    __DIR__ . '/var/cache/opentelemetry.php',
);
$sdkBuilder = $configuration->create();
```
