I've just released v2.0.0 of my .NET Telemetry Source Generator: github.com/purview-dev/... Better support for non-ILogger referenced projects, some bug fixes, and dropped support for .NET 7 for simplifications in the generated output. #OpenTelemetry #Logging #Activities #Metrics #dotnet #aspire - ThreadSky

Interesting. Please show the code that gets generated though. That’s the first thing I look for when deciding if a source generator gets into my projects. Add the generated output immediately after the example interface.

I've just updated the README[.]md to point you in the right direction for viewing the generated source.

In essence there's a fully working sample app, that has EmitCompilerGeneratedFiles set to true.

You can clone the project, build the sample app and view all of the generated source for yourself.

Don’t make me download and run the sample to get the emitted code. Share it right away. It’s the primary feature of your library, show it proudly in the readme next to the interface. That’s how you get downloads 🙂

I understand what you're saying, but the reality is that each example varies massively based on your own interface.

Each interface may generate up to 3 different partial classes based on your usage - Activities, Logs, Metrics, and 1 for DI.

Then you have each Attribute type.

It's not practical.

I agree with Egil, if you just show some examples of generated code it would be more interesting. As it stands, I have to do the hard work of selling your library to myself and that makes me less interested.

I’ll knock up a page in the wiki at some point showing the generated output, as-per the sample application.

There's also a .NET Aspire-based sample app which shows the generated Logs, Span/ Activities, and Metrics in the dashboard: https://github.com/purview-dev/purview-telemetry-sourcegenerator/tree/main/samples/SampleApp

Noodling with the histogram meter type, which seems to work really well with #DotNetAspire
