The OpenTelemetry loader module is mainly used internally to load the
implementation for global objects like
:func:`opentelemetry.trace.tracer_source`.
.. _loader-factory:
An instance of a global object of type ``T`` is always created with a factory
function with the following signature::
def my_factory_for_t(api_type: typing.Type[T]) -> typing.Optional[T]:
# ...
That function is called with e.g., the type of the global object it should
create as an argument (e.g. the type object
:class:`opentelemetry.trace.TracerSource`) and should return an instance of that type
(such that ``instanceof(my_factory_for_t(T), T)`` is true). Alternatively, it
may return ``None`` to indicate that the no-op default should be used.
When loading an implementation, the following algorithm is used to find a
factory function or other means to create the global object:
1. If the environment variable
:samp:`OPENTELEMETRY_PYTHON_IMPLEMENTATION_{getter-name}` (e.g.,
``OPENTELEMETRY_PYTHON_IMPLEMENTATION_TRACERSOURCE``) is set to an
nonempty value, an attempt is made to import a module with that name and
use a factory function named ``get_opentelemetry_implementation`` in it.
2. Otherwise, the same is tried with the environment variable
``OPENTELEMETRY_PYTHON_IMPLEMENTATION_DEFAULT``.
3. Otherwise, if a :samp:`set_preferred_{<type>}_implementation` was
called (e.g.
:func:`opentelemetry.trace.set_preferred_tracer_source_implementation`),
the callback set there is used (that is, the environment variables
override the callback set in code).
4. Otherwise, if :func:`set_preferred_default_implementation` was called,
the callback set there is used.
5. Otherwise, an attempt is made to import and use the OpenTelemetry SDK.
6. Otherwise the default implementation that ships with the API
distribution (a fast no-op implementation) is used.
If any of the above steps fails (e.g., a module is loaded but does not define
the required function or a module name is set but the module fails to load),
the search immediatelly skips to the last step.
Note that the first two steps (those that query environment variables) are
skipped if :data:`sys.flags` has ``ignore_environment`` set (which usually
means that the Python interpreter was invoked with the ``-E`` or ``-I`` flag).
