        # Launcher, an OpenTelemetry Configuration Layer 🚀
        
        *NOTE: the code in this repo is currently in alpha and will likely change*
        
        ### What is Launcher?
        
        Launcher is a configuration layer that chooses default values for configuration options that many OpenTelemetry users want. It provides a single function in each language to simplify discovery of the options and components available to users. The goal of Launcher is to help users that aren't familiar with OpenTelemetry quickly ramp up on what they need to get going and instrument.
        
        ### Getting started
        
        ```bash
        pip install opentelemetry-launcher
        ```
        
        ### Configure
        
        Minimal setup
        
        ```python
        from opentelemetry.launcher import configure_opentelemetry
        
        configure_opentelemetry(
            service_name="service-123",
            access_token="my-token",  # optional
        )
        
        tracer = trace.get_tracer(__name__)
        
        with tracer.start_as_current_span("foo") as span:
            span.set_attribute("attr1", "valu1")
            with tracer.start_as_current_span("bar"):
                with tracer.start_as_current_span("baz"):
                    print("Hello world from OpenTelemetry Python!")
        
        ```
        
        Additional tracer options
        
        ```python
        configure_opentelemetry(
            service_name="service-123",
            service_version="1.2.3",
            access_token="my-token",
            span_exporter_endpoint="ingest.lightstep.com:443",
            metric_exporter_endpoint="ingest.lightstep.com:443/metrics",
            log_level=debug,
            span_exporter_insecure=False,
            metric_exporter_insecure=False,
        )
        
        ```
        
        ### Configuration Options

        ### Principles behind Launcher
        
        ##### 100% interoperability with OpenTelemetry
        
        One of the key principles behind putting together Launcher is to make lives of OpenTelemetry users easier, this means that there is no special configuration that **requires** users to install Launcher in order to use OpenTelemetry. It also means that any users of Launcher can leverage the flexibility of configuring OpenTelemetry as they need.
        
        ##### Opinionated configuration
        
        Although we understand that not all languages use the same format for configuration, we find this annoying. We decided that Launcher would allow users to use the same configuration file across all languages. In this case, we settled for `YAML` as the format, which was inspired by the OpenTelemetry Collector.
        
        ##### Validation
        
        Another decision we made with launcher is to provide end users with a layer of validation of their configuration. This provides us the ability to give feedback to our users faster, so they can start collecting telemetry sooner.
