Distro does not honour OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT env var #134

Closed MikeGoldsmith closed 1 year ago

Versions The distro does not use the OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT env var and should. It does use HONEYCOMB_API_ENDPOINT as exepcted.

When fixing, the honeycomb endpoint should have precedence over the OTLP endpoint and if none are provided use the default value.

Confirmed this is indeed not honoring the OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT, I believe this is the culprit that always overrides anything set in the OTEL_ env var to use Honeycomb prod.
