OpAMP Rust

The Open Agent Management Protocol (OpAMP) is a network protocol for remote management of agents. This project aims to implement the OpAMP protocol in a client library that can be used by Supervisor processes. By leveraging Rust's memory safety and performance, we aim to provide a reliable and efficient way of transmitting observability metrics.

Getting Started

This library is published as a standard crate. To add it to your project, include it as a dependency inside Cargo.toml like so:

[dependencies]
otel-opamp-rs = { version = "0.0.8", features = ["http", "websocket", "extras"] }

Alternatively, use cargo like so

cargo add otel-opamp-rs

For more details refer to the API documentation

Features

This library supports the following capabilities

• HTTP support
• Websocket support
• Gzip compression
• Low resource consumption

The code references stable releases of the OpAMP protocol protobuf definition here and aims to be standards compliant on behavior to the published OpAMP specification

Why Fork

This vendor independent version emerges from several key motivations:

• Preserve the spirit of open source under the rights granted by the Apache 2.0 license
• Allow the software to evolve keeping with the spirit of the original design with novel features and methodologies, potentially leading to advancements beyond the scope of the original project
• Encourage wider community engagement and contributions fostering a robust and equitable distribution of the benefits of such a project.
