Compatibility Matrix

Note on phoenix integration

OpentelemetryPhoenix requires phoenix to use Plug.Telemetry in order to correctly trace endpoint calls.

The endpoint.ex file should look like:

defmodule MyApp.Endpoint do
  use Phoenix.Endpoint, otp_app: :my_app
  ...
  plug Plug.Telemetry, event_prefix: [:phoenix, :endpoint]
  ...
end

The Phoenix endpoint.ex template can be used as a reference
