//! OTLP metrics export pipeline initialization.
//!
//! Configures a periodic reader that exports metrics via gRPC to an
//! OTLP-compatible collector (e.g. the OpenTelemetry Collector, Grafana
//! Alloy, or Datadog Agent).

use opentelemetry_sdk::metrics::SdkMeterProvider;

/// Initialise an OTLP metrics export pipeline and install it as the global
/// [`MeterProvider`].
///
/// The endpoint defaults to `http://localhost:4317` and can be overridden via
/// the `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT` environment variable.
///
/// Returns the [`SdkMeterProvider`] so the caller can hold onto it and call
/// [`SdkMeterProvider::shutdown`] during graceful termination.
///
/// # Arguments
///
/// * `service_name` — value for the `service.name` resource attribute.
///
/// # This is gRPC only, and `service_name` overrides the environment
///
/// Two behaviours that surprise anyone arriving with an OpenTelemetry
/// deployment already configured. Both are current limitations, not
/// decisions the specification supports:
///
/// * **The transport is gRPC (OTLP/gRPC, port 4317) and cannot be changed.**
///   `MetricExporter::builder().with_tonic()` is hard-coded, and this crate
///   compiles `opentelemetry-otlp` with `default-features = false,
///   features = ["grpc-tonic", "metrics"]`, so the HTTP/protobuf exporter is
///   not built at all. **`OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_PROTOCOL` has no effect.**
///   Setting it to `http/protobuf` and pointing `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT`
///   at a collector's `:4318` produces gRPC spoken at an HTTP port, and
///   silence.
/// * **`OTEL_SERVICE_NAME` is overridden by the `service_name` argument.**
///   `Resource::builder()` installs `EnvResourceDetector`, which reads
///   `OTEL_SERVICE_NAME` and `OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES`; the
///   `.with_attributes([service.name])` call below then overwrites what it
///   found. The argument therefore always wins, which is the opposite of
///   what the OpenTelemetry environment-variable specification
///   prescribes. Pass the value your environment would have supplied.
///
/// Only the endpoint, headers and timeout variables reach the exporter.
///
/// # Only metrics — there is no span export
///
/// This pipeline exports **metrics and nothing else**. The `otel` feature
/// installs no `TracerProvider` and exports no spans, so nothing here
/// measures a duration or records a parent/child relationship.
///
/// What the SDK *does* do, since 0.13, is **propagate** W3C trace context:
/// the server parses an inbound `traceparent` into
/// [`RequestContext::trace_context`](crate::RequestContext::trace_context),
/// and `a2a-protocol-client`'s `TracePropagationInterceptor` writes one on
/// the way out, so a delegation chain shares one trace id across agents and
/// across languages. That makes this SDK a correct participant in whatever
/// tracing system the operator runs; it does not make it a tracer. If you
/// want spans recorded, install your own `TracerProvider` and start them
/// from the propagated context.
///
/// # Errors
///
/// Returns an error if the OTLP exporter or meter provider cannot be created.
///
/// # Panics
///
/// **Must be called from within a Tokio runtime.** The tonic OTLP channel is
/// constructed here, and tonic spawns onto the ambient runtime while building
/// it; called outside one, this panics with `there is no reactor running,
/// must be called from the context of a Tokio 1.x runtime` rather than
/// returning `Err`. In practice that means calling it inside `#[tokio::main]`
/// / `#[tokio::test]`, or within a `Runtime::enter` guard — not from a plain
/// `fn main` before the runtime is started.
///
/// The panic originates inside `tonic`/`hyper-util`, so no lint in this
/// workspace can catch the misuse at compile time; it was found by adding the
/// first test to ever call this function (`tests/otel_pipeline_tests.rs`).
/// Note also that release builds set `panic = "abort"`, so this aborts the
/// process rather than unwinding.
///
/// # Global state
///
/// This installs a process-global `MeterProvider`, and is last-write-wins:
/// calling it twice replaces the first provider, silently orphaning it.
///
/// # Shutdown behaviour
///
/// [`SdkMeterProvider::shutdown`] performs a final export flush. If metrics
/// have been recorded and the collector is unreachable, that flush fails —
/// observed as `InternalFailure("[Timeout(5s)]")`. Graceful-termination code
/// should therefore treat a shutdown error as "metrics may have been lost",
/// not as a fatal condition, and should not block termination on it.
///
