# @kubiks/otel-autumn

OpenTelemetry instrumentation for the [Autumn](https://useautumn.com) billing SDK.
Capture spans for every billing operation including feature checks, usage tracking, checkout flows, product attachments, and cancellations with detailed metadata.

![Autumn Trace Visualization](https://github.com/kubiks-inc/otel/blob/main/images/otel-autumn-trace.png)

_Visualize your billing operations with detailed span information including operation type, customer IDs, feature IDs, and billing metadata._

## Installation

```bash
npm install @kubiks/otel-autumn
# or
pnpm add @kubiks/otel-autumn
```

**Peer Dependencies:** `@opentelemetry/api` >= 1.9.0, `autumn-js` >= 0.1.0

## Quick Start

```ts
import { Autumn } from "autumn-js";
import { instrumentAutumn } from "@kubiks/otel-autumn";

const autumn = instrumentAutumn(
  new Autumn({
    secretKey: process.env.AUTUMN_SECRET_KEY!,
  }),
);

// All operations are now automatically traced
const checkResult = await autumn.check({
  customer_id: "user_123",
  feature_id: "messages",
});

await autumn.track({
  customer_id: "user_123",
  feature_id: "messages",
  value: 1,
});
```

`instrumentAutumn` wraps your Autumn client instance — no configuration changes needed. Every SDK call creates a client span with detailed billing attributes.

## What Gets Traced

This instrumentation wraps the core Autumn billing methods:

- **`check`** - Feature access and product status checks
- **`track`** - Usage event tracking
- **`checkout`** - Checkout session creation
- **`attach`** - Product attachment to customers
- **`cancel`** - Product cancellation

Each operation creates a dedicated span with operation-specific attributes.

## Configuration

You can optionally configure the instrumentation:

```ts
import { instrumentAutumn } from "@kubiks/otel-autumn";

const autumn = instrumentAutumn(client, {
  // Capture customer data in spans (default: false)
  captureCustomerData: true,

  // Capture product options/configuration (default: false)
  captureOptions: true,
});
```

## Usage Examples

### Feature Access Control

```ts
const autumn = instrumentAutumn(
  new Autumn({ secretKey: process.env.AUTUMN_SECRET_KEY! }),
);

// Check if user can access a feature
const result = await autumn.check({
  customer_id: "user_123",
  feature_id: "messages",
  required_balance: 1,
});

if (result.data?.allowed) {
  // User has access
  console.log(`Remaining: ${result.data.balance}`);
}
```

### Usage Tracking

```ts
// Track feature usage
await autumn.track({
  customer_id: "user_123",
  feature_id: "messages",
  value: 1,
  idempotency_key: `msg_${messageId}`, // Prevent double-counting
});
```

### Checkout Flow

```ts
// Create a checkout session for a product
const result = await autumn.checkout({
  customer_id: "user_123",
  product_id: "pro",
  force_checkout: false, // Use billing portal if payment method exists
});

if (result.data?.url) {
  // Redirect to Stripe checkout
  console.log(`Checkout URL: ${result.data.url}`);
}
```

### Product Management

```ts
// Attach a free product
const attachResult = await autumn.attach({
  customer_id: "user_123",
  product_id: "free",
});

// Cancel a subscription
const cancelResult = await autumn.cancel({
  customer_id: "user_123",
  product_id: "pro",
});
```
