Quartz.NET 3.x

These are the documents for the 3.x line, which is maintained. Quartz.NET 4.x is the current release; the migration guide says what changed and what to do about it.

DEPRECATED

The Quartz.OpenTelemetry.Instrumentation package is obsolete and no longer maintained. It is incompatible with .NET 10 and later.

Use the official OpenTelemetry.Instrumentation.Quartz package instead. The OpenTelemetry community maintains it, and it supports the latest .NET versions.

Installation

Install-Package OpenTelemetry.Instrumentation.Quartz

Also install an exporter package, so the results go somewhere.

Tips

Quartz 3.1 or later required.

Using

Call the AddQuartzInstrumentation extension method on TracerProviderBuilder.

This example exports to Jaeger. It also needs:

  • OpenTelemetry.Extensions.Hosting
  • OpenTelemetry.Exporter.Jaeger

Run Jaeger locally with docker:

$ docker run -d --name jaeger \
  -e COLLECTOR_ZIPKIN_HTTP_PORT=9411 \
  -p 5775:5775/udp \
  -p 6831:6831/udp \
  -p 6832:6832/udp \
  -p 5778:5778 \
  -p 16686:16686 \
  -p 14268:14268 \
  -p 14250:14250 \
  -p 9411:9411 \
  jaegertracing/all-in-one:1.18

Example Startup.ConfigureServices configuration

public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
    // make sure you configure logging and open telemetry before Quartz services

    services.AddOpenTelemetry(builder =>
    {
        builder
            .AddQuartzInstrumentation()
            .UseJaegerExporter(o =>
            {
                o.ServiceName = "My Software Name";

                // these are the defaults
                o.AgentHost = "localhost";
                o.AgentPort = 6831;
            });
    });
}
