i'm making a bit of progress on the telemetry API, stealing code from opencensus-elixir. If it's OK I'll probably listen in to the WG call tomorrow
Tristan Sloughter
@tsloughter
cool. yes, definitely join the call if you are able

@zachdaniel
sigh Things are transpiring against me. I cleared my schedule for the meeting, but a work fire took up all of my time. Sorry I wasn’t there :(
Tristan Sloughter
@tsloughter
:(
no worries

I think the opentelemetry metrics actually play nicely into use of persistent_term and counters as optimizations
you can "bind" an instrument and labels for an optimized reference to a metric you want to be recording to
Tristan Sloughter
@tsloughter
the issue with persistent terms to counter refs was always that you didn't know what the labels would be -- I guess ericsson is still in the days of recording metrics for static keys and not including labels/tags :) so this feature was added in such a way
@tsloughter bah, sorry for going silent for so long - I had a bit of WIP that I was going to clean up over the holidays and ended up not getting to it. Looks like you're already past the point I got to with macros. I'll need to check with my management about getting the CLA signed, I'll dig into that on Monday.
Tristan Sloughter
@tsloughter
@irvingreid cool, thanks
Tristan Sloughter
@tsloughter
@irvingreid any luck on the CLA?
now that we have some Elixir code does anyone else want to be official reviewers? @zachdaniel ? hm, I'd include Gregg in that but he doesn't appear to be in here. Spandex team :)
Zach Daniel
@zachdaniel
I can definitely review code
:)
I haven’t been able to give much, but I can do that at the bare minimum
🙂
Tristan Sloughter
@tsloughter
cool, yea, it is just a "if you have the time and want to" thing
Tristan Sloughter
@tsloughter
hm, oh right, you already are a member, I don't understand why your reviews don't "count"... I could have swore you +1'ed something the other day and it wasn't considered a valid review
Tristan Sloughter
@tsloughter
oooh right, CODEOWNERS
Irving Reid
@irvingreid
Unfortunately it's probably going to take a while to get PD to sign the corporate CLA. I'll do the individual form to get the current PR unblocked.

Anyone going to Lone Star Elixir (aside from Greg Mefford and Samuel Mullen, who are speaking on OpenTelemetry and Telemetry, respectively...)? Unfortunately I have a conflict & can't make it to Code Beam.
Tristan Sloughter
@tsloughter
thanks
I'm not making it to shit this year :(. missing codebeam even. since I'm in Colorado I'll probably make it to ElixirConf for the first time, but that's not until September
Would this be the proper channel for community support? I don't want to clutter the room with questions if it's not the proper place to ask I'm trying to grok the examples here https://github.com/opentelemetry-beam/opentelemetry-examples but I'm not sure I'm following
Tristan Sloughter
@tsloughter
this is the proper channel but likely always be able to get more help on the erlang or elixir slack in the channels for observability just because people are in those more

@tsloughter I'm trying to setup the opentelemetry_exporter to send data via gRPC to opentelemetry-collector, but I'm receiving the following error:
