Observability Dev Services with Grafana OTel LGTM
OTel-LGTM is all-in-one
Docker image containing OpenTelemetry’s OTLP as the protocol to transport metrics, tracing and logging data to an OpenTelemetry Collector which then stores signals data into Prometheus (metrics), Tempo (traces) and Loki (logs), only to have it visualized by Grafana. It’s used by Quarkus Observability to provide the Grafana OTel LGTM Dev Resource.
Configuring your project
Add the Quarkus Grafana OTel LGTM sink (where data goes) extension to your build file:
<dependency>
<groupId>io.quarkus</groupId>
<artifactId>quarkus-observability-devservices-lgtm</artifactId>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
implementation("io.quarkus:quarkus-observability-devservices-lgtm")
指标
If you need metrics, add the Micrometer OTLP registry to your build file:
<dependency>
<groupId>io.quarkiverse.micrometer.registry</groupId>
<artifactId>quarkus-micrometer-registry-otlp</artifactId>
</dependency>
implementation("io.quarkiverse.micrometer.registry:quarkus-micrometer-registry-otlp")
When using the MicroMeter’s Quarkiverse OTLP registry to push metrics to Grafana OTel LGTM, the quarkus.micrometer.export.otlp.url
property is automatically set to OTel collector endpoint as seen from the outside of the docker container.
跟踪
For Tracing add the quarkus-opentelemetry
extension to your build file:
<dependency>
<groupId>io.quarkus</groupId>
<artifactId>quarkus-opentelemetry</artifactId>
</dependency>
implementation("io.quarkus:quarkus-opentelemetry")
The quarkus.otel.exporter.otlp.endpoint
property is automatically set to OTel collector endpoint as seen from the outside of the docker container.
The quarkus.otel.exporter.otlp.protocol
is set to http/protobuf
.
Access Grafana
Once you start your app in dev mode:
quarkus dev
./mvnw quarkus:dev
./gradlew --console=plain quarkusDev
You will see a log entry like this:
[io.qu.ob.de.ObservabilityDevServiceProcessor] (build-35) Dev Service Lgtm started, config: {grafana.endpoint=http://localhost:42797, quarkus.otel.exporter.otlp.endpoint=http://localhost:34711, otel-collector.url=localhost:34711, quarkus.micrometer.export.otlp.url=http://localhost:34711/v1/metrics, quarkus.otel.exporter.otlp.protocol=http/protobuf}
Remember that Grafana is accessible in an ephemeral port, so you need to check the logs to see which port is being used. In this example, the grafana endpoint is grafana.endpoint=http://localhost:42797
.
If you miss the message you can always check the port with this Docker command:
docker ps | grep grafana
Another option is to use the Dev UI as the Grafana URL link will be available and if selected will open a new browser tab directly to the running Grafana instance:
其他配置
This extension will configure your quarkus-opentelemetry
and quarkus-micrometer-registry-otlp
extensions to send data to the OTel Collector bundled with the Grafana OTel LGTM image.
If you don’t want all the hassle with Dev Services (e.g. lookup and re-use of existing running containers, etc) you can simply disable Dev Services and enable just Dev Resource usage:
quarkus.observability.enabled=false
quarkus.observability.dev-resources=true
Tests
And for the least 'auto-magical' usage in the tests, simply disable both (Dev Resources are already disabled by default):
quarkus.observability.enabled=false
And then explicitly list LGTM Dev Resource in the test as a @QuarkusTestResource
resource:
@QuarkusTest
@QuarkusTestResource(value = LgtmResource.class, restrictToAnnotatedClass = true)
@TestProfile(QuarkusTestResourceTestProfile.class)
public class LgtmLifecycleTest extends LgtmTestBase {
}
Testing full Grafana OTel LGTM stack - example
Use existing Quarkus MicroMeter OTLP registry
<dependency>
<groupId>io.quarkiverse.micrometer.registry</groupId>
<artifactId>quarkus-micrometer-registry-otlp</artifactId>
</dependency>
implementation("io.quarkiverse.micrometer.registry:quarkus-micrometer-registry-otlp")
Simply inject the Meter registry into your code — it will periodically push metrics to Grafana LGTM’s OTLP HTTP endpoint.
@Path("/api")
public class SimpleEndpoint {
private static final Logger log = Logger.getLogger(SimpleEndpoint.class);
@Inject
MeterRegistry registry;
@PostConstruct
public void start() {
Gauge.builder("xvalue", arr, a -> arr[0])
.baseUnit("X")
.description("Some random x")
.tag("my_key", "x")
.register(registry);
}
// ...
}
Where you can then check Grafana’s datasource API for existing metrics data.
public class LgtmTestBase {
@ConfigProperty(name = "grafana.endpoint")
String endpoint; // NOTE -- injected Grafana endpoint!
@Test
public void testTracing() {
String response = RestAssured.get("/api/poke?f=100").body().asString();
System.out.println(response);
GrafanaClient client = new GrafanaClient(endpoint, "admin", "admin");
Awaitility.await().atMost(61, TimeUnit.SECONDS).until(
client::user,
u -> "admin".equals(u.login));
Awaitility.await().atMost(61, TimeUnit.SECONDS).until(
() -> client.query("xvalue_X"),
result -> !result.data.result.isEmpty());
}
}
// simple Grafana HTTP client
public class GrafanaClient {
private static final ObjectMapper MAPPER = new ObjectMapper();
private final String url;
private final String username;
private final String password;
public GrafanaClient(String url, String username, String password) {
this.url = url;
this.username = username;
this.password = password;
}
private <T> void handle(
String path,
Function<HttpRequest.Builder, HttpRequest.Builder> method,
HttpResponse.BodyHandler<T> bodyHandler,
BiConsumer<HttpResponse<T>, T> consumer) {
try {

int code = response.statusCode();
if (code < 200 || code > 299) {

}
consumer.accept(response, response.body());
