Key principles

  • Environment variables: Always use environment variables for PostHog keys and OpenTelemetry endpoints. Never hardcode them.
  • Minimal changes: Add log export alongside existing logging. Don't replace or restructure existing logging code.
  • OpenTelemetry: PostHog logs use the OpenTelemetry protocol. Configure an OTLP exporter pointed at PostHog's ingest endpoint.
  • Structured logging: Prefer structured log formats with key-value properties over plain text messages.

Framework guidelines

No specific framework guidelines.
