@kaylareopelle Is this of interest to you?

@arielvalentin - Yes, this is of interest to me. I'd be happy to shepherd the logging bridge for Ruby. I have a functional prototype using Ruby's Logger library that needs to be reviewed.

That review process was put on hold due to other priorities at my company, but I am now able to come back to it and resume the work.

@jpkrohling - I'm really excited by this governance initiative and look forward to collaborating with you on the project.

Here's a project board tracking the status of the Ruby Logs project: https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-ruby/projects/3

I believe this is in @AkhigbeEromo's radar.

👋 Hi @AkhigbeEromo!

There's a bridge in progress for Ruby's standard Logger library. The work is blocked because Ruby doesn't have a functional logs API/SDK released yet. The code for the API/SDK is written, but it's being reviewed in small pieces. I haven't been able to work on it for a few months, but am now able to work on it again. Here's a board that demonstrates the status of the project.

If you'd like to test out the existing experimental code end-to-end, follow the instructions in this gist or take this example app for a spin.

If you're comfortable building off experimental code, I think the existing PR could benefit from an addition to support the ActiveSupport::BroadcastLogger introduced in Rails 7.1. If this interests you, let me know and I can craft a more detailed issue about the problem.

Additionally, reviews and feedback on the open bridge PR or the open PR related to the logs SDK are welcome!

Another way to support the project would be to write a new bridge. semantic_logger and lograge are popular Ruby logging libraries that could use bridges.
