Out of the box support for uWSGI

[owais]

Setting up OpenTelemetry needs additional manual steps when working with uWSGI as documented here: https://opentelemetry-python.readthedocs.io/en/latest/examples/fork-process-model/README.html#uwsgi-postfork-decorator

This should not be required if a user is invokes the opentelemetry-instrument command to auto-instrument their uWSGI based service.

Hint: pre instrumentation hook might be helpful to implement this.

this support only works for Tracing. Do we have any support for metrics ?
Any suggestion how to add it for metrics ?

Did you move the meterprovider, reader, and exporter setup to postfork hook?

[srikanthccv]

You need to have some hook init_metrics setup similar to the init_tracing and set up the metrics pipeline there, and it should work.

yes, this solution worked

The solution is working fine , but I noticed that it's missing the http_target from the data in Prometheus.
This all the field I have for for http_server_duration_count : http_server_name, http_method, http_status_code, http_scheme, job, net_host_port, instance, http_flavor
