How do you use this with openobserve?

[gurpal2000]

The openobserve otel ingestor (https://openobserve.ai/docs/ingestion/logs/otlp/) requires headers to be sent.

Where can i specificy headers and basic auth token?

[nioc]

Hello @gurpal2000 for now, library do not allow exporter authentication, but you can add it here with something like this (I do not have check it):

    // lib/opentelemetry-node.js L489
    const headers = {
      Authorization:  'Basic cm9v****************************************Ng=='
    }
    if (protocol === 'proto') {
      const { OTLPTraceExporter } = require('@opentelemetry/exporter-trace-otlp-proto')
      spanProcessor = new BatchSpanProcessor(new OTLPTraceExporter({ url, headers }))
    } else {
      const { OTLPTraceExporter } = require('@opentelemetry/exporter-trace-otlp-http')
      spanProcessor = new BatchSpanProcessor(new OTLPTraceExporter({ url, headers }))
    }

I am moving this question as issue #21 to handle it in a future version.
