[Proposal] Monitor gin with https://github.com/alibaba/opentelemetry-go-auto-instrumentation

Hi all, As we all know gin is the best http framework in the golang ecosystem. But I found that gin doesn't have the ability to integrate tracing and metrics by default and there doesn't seem to be a best practice in the documentation on how to monitor gin applications. Our project(https://github.com/alibaba/opentelemetry-go-auto-instrumentation) allows tracing and metrics to be collected and reported on the gin app without making changes to user code. I was wondering if it would be possible for me to add an observable subsection to the official documentation for this project that describes best practices for observing the gin application. Thanks!

I hope the observable part of the document will focus on the otel project, supplemented by the alibaba project.
(Rather than introducing Alibaba's tools in full length) :p

supplemented

I agree, the project will be donated into OpenTelemetry Community soon, see open-telemetry/community#1961. We will focus on the otel project.
