This module provides automatic instrumentation for [`mongodb-core`](https://github.com/mongodb-js/mongodb-core).

For automatic instrumentation see the
[@opentelemetry/node](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-js/tree/master/packages/opentelemetry-node) package.

## Installation

```bash
npm install --save @opentelemetry/plugin-mongodb-core
```

## Usage

OpenTelemetry Mongodb Instrumentation allows the user to automatically collect trace data and export them to their backend of choice, to give observability to distributed systems.

To load a specific plugin (mongodb in this case), specify it in the Node Tracer's configuration.
```js
const { NodeTracer } = require('@opentelemetry/node');

const tracer = new NodeTracer({
  plugins: {
    'mongodb-core': {
      enabled: true,
      // You may use a package name or absolute path to the file.
      path: '@opentelemetry/plugin-mongodb-core',
    }
  }
});
```

To load all the [supported plugins](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-js#plugins), use below approach. Each plugin is only loaded when the module that it patches is loaded; in other words, there is no computational overhead for listing plugins for unused modules.
```js
const { NodeTracer } = require('@opentelemetry/node');

const tracer = new NodeTracer();
```

See [examples/mongodb](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-js/tree/master/examples/mongodb-core) for a short example.
