How to customize collector configuration

Open shenqidebaozi opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

In the BindPlane UI, we can only set partial configurations for the collector.

If I want to set more configurations, such as max_recv_msg_size_mib How should I operate.

Hey @shenqidebaozi,

So BindPlane usually exposes the most common configuration elements then we add more on as we see users needing them. For your question, you could likely need to create a custom source and insert the raw OTLP receiver configuration as you would if you were configuring the collector from a config file.

If you have any additional questions about BindPlane please reach out via our slack as you'll likely get a quicker response to any questions.

Okay, I understand. I have an idea. Can we provide a rendering page based on a JSON schema, so that we can write configuration files through page forms to avoid formatting and type errors
