Alignment with OpenTelemetry Collector configuration #3963

Open mx-psi opened 5 months ago

mx-psi commented 5 months ago

I am working on stabilizing the Collector configuration resolution and environment variable support as part of https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector/milestone/32.

One of my goals is to bring the File Configuration feature in SDKs and the Collector configuration features to be as similar as possible: it is likely that there will be significant overlap between people writing Collector configurations and people writing SDK configurations.

This is intended to be a meta-issue tracking separate issues that affect Collector and SDK compatibility:

@mx-psi I assigned this to you since you are already working on it.

@mx-psi @open-telemetry/configuration-maintainers what do you think of moving this meta issue to https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-configuration?

EDIT oops! I see @jack-berg just transferred it here

Yeah i think since this concerns the file config spec, and the not the file config model / schema, it belongs in this repo. Some day, we might consider moving the file config schema to opentelemetry-configuration so all related material can be in one repo, similar to what we did moving the OTLP specification to opentelemetry-proto.
