# OpenTelemetry Sidekiq Instrumentation The Sidekiq instrumentation is a community-maintained instrumentation for the [Sidekiq][sidekiq-home] Ruby jobs system. ## How do I get started? Install the gem using: ``` gem install opentelemetry-instrumentation-sidekiq ``` Or, if you use [bundler][bundler-home], include `opentelemetry-instrumentation-sidekiq` in your `Gemfile`. ## Usage To use the instrumentation, call `use` with the name of the instrumentation: ```ruby OpenTelemetry::SDK.configure do |c| c.use 'OpenTelemetry::Instrumentation::Sidekiq' end ``` Alternatively, you can also call `use_all` to install all the available instrumentation. ```ruby OpenTelemetry::SDK.configure do |c| c.use_all end ``` ## Examples Example usage can be seen in the `./example/sidekiq.rb` file [here](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-ruby/blob/main/instrumentation/sidekiq/example/sidekiq.rb) ## Development You'll need Redis installed locally to run the test suite. Once you've installed it, it will start and stop automatically when you run `rake`. ``` redis-server test/redis.conf ``` ## How can I get involved? The `opentelemetry-instrumentation-sidekiq` gem source is [on github][repo-github], along with related gems including `opentelemetry-api` and `opentelemetry-sdk`.
