fix!: remove enable_recognize_route and span_naming options
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
`recognize_route` can end up mutating the request object in the event it
processes a potential match that is not anchored. That is, shall we say,
not ideal. (And causes production applications to break).

I was initially going to just default the options to `off`
(essentially), but why leave potentially dangerous code lying about?
Also, it ended up being easier to just yank stuff out rather than fix
the test cases to handle the inverse of what the expected, etc. So, this
commit just removes it all.

Step backwards in convenience, sure. Big step forward in safety? Definitely.

### Configuration options

| Name | Default | Description |
| ----- | ------- | ----------- |
| `span_naming` | `:rails_route` | Configures the name for the Rack span. `:rails_route` is in the format of `HTTP_METHOD /rails/route(.:format)`, for example `GET /users/:id(.:format)`. `:controller_action` is in the format of `Controller#action`, for example `UsersController#show` |
| `enable_recognize_route` | `true` | Enables or disables adding the `http.route` attribute. |

The default configuration uses a [method from Rails to obtain the route for the request](https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/v6.1.3/actionpack/lib/action_dispatch/journey/router.rb#L65). The options above allow this behaviour to be opted out of if you have performance issues. If you wish to avoid using this method then set `span_naming: :controller_action, enable_recognize_route: false`.

```ruby
OpenTelemetry::SDK.configure do |c|
c.use 'OpenTelemetry::Instrumentation::ActionPack', {
span_naming: :controller_action,
enable_recognize_route: false
}
end
```

## Examples

Example usage can be seen in the `./example/trace_demonstration.rb` file [here](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-ruby-contrib/blob/main/instrumentation/action_pack/example/trace_demonstration.ru)
