README

Utopia Telemetry is a powerful Telemtry library. This library is aiming to be as simple and easy to learn and use. This library is maintained by the Appwrite team.

Although this library is part of the Utopia System project it is dependency free and can be used as standalone with any other PHP project or framework.

Getting Started

Install using composer:

composer require utopia-php/telemetry

Init in your application:

<?php

require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

use Utopia\Telemetry\Adapter\OpenTelemetry;

$telemetry = new OpenTelemetry('http://localhost:4318/v1/metrics', 'namespace', 'app', 'unique-instance-id');

// Periodically collect and export metrics to the configured OpenTelemetry endpoint.
$telemetry->collect();

// Example using Swoole
\Swoole\Timer::tick(60_000, fn () => $telemetry->collect());

Metric Types

Counter

A monotonically increasing counter. Only positive increments are allowed.

$counter = $telemetry->createCounter('http.server.requests', '{request}', 'Total HTTP requests');

$counter->add(1);
$counter->add(1, ['method' => 'GET', 'status' => '200']);

UpDownCounter

A counter that can increase or decrease. Useful for tracking values like active connections.

$upDownCounter = $telemetry->createUpDownCounter('http.server.active_requests', '{request}', 'Active HTTP requests');

$upDownCounter->add(1);   // request started
$upDownCounter->add(-1);  // request finished

Histogram

Records a distribution of values. Useful for measuring latency or payload sizes.

$histogram = $telemetry->createHistogram('http.server.request.duration', 'ms', 'HTTP request duration');

$histogram->record(142);
$histogram->record(98.5, ['route' => '/api/users']);

Gauge

Records an instantaneous measurement. Useful for values that can arbitrarily go up or down.

$gauge = $telemetry->createGauge('system.memory.usage', 'By', 'Memory usage');

$gauge->record(1_073_741_824);
$gauge->record(536_870_912, ['host' => 'server-1']);

ObservableGauge

An asynchronous gauge whose value is collected via a callback at export time. Useful for values that are expensive to compute or come from an external source (e.g. CPU usage, queue depth).

$observableGauge = $telemetry->createObservableGauge('process.cpu.usage', '%', 'CPU usage');

$observableGauge->observe(function (callable $observer): void {
    // This callback is invoked each time metrics are collected.
    $observer(sys_getloadavg()[0] * 100);
    $observer(72.4, ['core' => '0']);
    $observer(68.1, ['core' => '1']);
});

System Requirements

Utopia Framework requires PHP 8.0 or later. We recommend using the latest PHP version whenever possible.
