OpenTelemetry tracing for [Broadway](https://elixir-broadway.org/) pipelines with support for distributed tracing.

## Usage

### Basic Setup

For basic Broadway instrumentation, set up the handler in your application's `Application.start/2` callback:

```elixir
def start(_type, _args) do
  OpentelemetryBroadway.setup()

  Supervisor.start_link(...)
end
```

### With Trace Propagation

For Broadway pipelines that need distributed tracing with linked spans across services (extracts context from message headers and creates trace links):

```elixir
def start(_type, _args) do
  # Enable trace propagation from message headers
  OpentelemetryBroadway.setup(propagation: true)

  Supervisor.start_link(...)
end
```

## Installation

This library is available on Hex:

```elixir
defp deps do
  [
    {:opentelemetry_broadway, "~> 0.3"}
  ]
end
```
