Architect plugin for OpenTelemetry + AWS X-Ray

This is a plugin for Architect that automatically instruments your Node.js Lambdas with OpenTelemetry and sends tracing data and metrics to AWS X-Ray.

It adds the AWS Distro for OpenTelemetry Lambda layer to all of your Lambdas for which you have enabled tracing.

Usage

1. Install this package using npm:

   npm i -D @nasa-gcn/architect-plugin-tracing

2. Add the following to your project's app.arc configuration file:

   @plugins
   nasa-gcn/architect-plugin-tracing

3. Enable tracing for all Lambdas by adding the folllowing lines to your app.arc file, or for an individual Lambda by adding it to the Lambda's config.arc file:

   @aws
   tracing true

4. Optionally, you can inject additional OpenTelemetry configuration into a Lambda by adding a file called tracing.js to its source directory. Here is an example that adds instrumentation for the Remix web framework:

   ```js
   global.configureInstrumentations = () => {
     const { DnsInstrumentation } = require('@opentelemetry/instrumentation-dns')
     const { HttpInstrumentation } = require('@opentelemetry/instrumentation-http')
     const { NetInstrumentation } = require('@opentelemetry/instrumentation-net')
     const {
       RemixInstrumentation,
     } = require('opentelemetry-instrumentation-remix')
   
     return [
       new DnsInstrumentation(),
       new HttpInstrumentation(),
       new NetInstrumentation(),
       new RemixInstrumentation(),
     ]
   }
   ```
