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
