Summary

This release improves logging stability by ensuring the OTLP LogHandler persists after configuration calls and refines exporter shutdown behavior to be more time-bound. It also adds documentation for the Prometheus exporter.

Migration Steps

  1. If you rely on logging configuration methods (logging.config.fileConfig or logging.config.dictConfig) being called after initialization, be aware that the OTLP LogHandler is now forcefully re-attached to the root logger, which might affect custom logging setups.

✨ New Features

  • Added missing Prometheus exporter documentation.

🐛 Bug Fixes

  • Overwrote logging.config.fileConfig and logging.config.dictConfig to ensure the OTLP LogHandler remains attached to the root logger, fixing a potential deadlock over logging._lock.
  • OTLP HTTP exporter now sets a default value for the timeout_sec parameter in the _export method.
