WithLogging() ??

[rmsimpson]

Is there a reason this method is marked internal and not public?

opentelemetry-dotnet/src/OpenTelemetry.Extensions.Hosting/OpenTelemetryBuilder.cs

Line 149 in b5e8361

internal OpenTelemetryBuilder WithLogging()

I was hoping adding logging with OTLP would be as simple as this code, but even if WithLogging was public, this code still wouldn't work.
None of the logging variations are calling my OtlpExporterOptions configurator, either, so it's reverting to localhost:4317.

Am I totally doing this wrong?

services.AddOptions<OtlpExporterOptions>().Configure<IHostServices>((opts, svc) => ConfigureOTLP(opts, svc));

services.AddOpenTelemetry()
	.WithTracing(builder => builder
	.AddOtlpExporter()
	.AddConsoleExporter()
	.ConfigureResource(builder => ConfigureResource(builder))
	)
	.WithMetrics(builder => builder
	.AddOtlpExporter()
	.AddConsoleExporter()
	.ConfigureResource(builder => ConfigureResource(builder))
	)
	.WithLogging(builder => builder
	.AddOtlpExporter()
	.AddConsoleExporter()
	.ConfigureResource(builder = ConfigureResource(builder))
	);

Logging with OTEL is not configured the same way as metrics or trace.
Probably due to the fact that logging was existing in many Framework before Otel exist.
So in asp.net they hook the configuration like this :
public static IServiceCollection ConfigureOtelLogging(this IServiceCollection services) =>

    services.AddLogging(
        it =>
        {
            it.ClearProviders();
            it
                .AddOpenTelemetry(
                    options =>
                        options.AddConsoleExporter()
                            .IncludeScopes = true);
        });

@aygalinc Seems that WithLogger was made public? Can/should we use it now?

@lvde0 - Yes - WithLogging is part of stable API now. Available starting 1.9.0 version of SDK. https:/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-dotnet/blob/main/RELEASENOTES.md#190
