px.otel.metric.Gauge

Defines the DataFrame mapping to an OpenTelemetry Metric Gauge

Gauges specify the "current value" of a metric at a given time. The source DataFrame must have a time_ column of type TIME64NS or the compiler will throw an error.

Arguments

Name	Type	Description
name	string	The name of the metric. Must adhere to [OpenTelemetry's naming conventions](https://opentelemetry.io/docs/reference/specification/metrics/api/#instrument)
value	Column	The column that contains the data. Must be either an INT64 or a FLOAT64.
description	string, optional	A description of what the metric tracks.
attributes	Dict[string, Column\|string], optional	A mapping of attribute name to a string or the column that stores data about the attribute.
unit	string, optional	The unit string to use for the metric. If not specified, will attempt to use the Semantic Type of the `value` to infer the unit string.

Returns

OTelDataContainer: the mapping of DataFrame columns to OpenTelemetry Gauge fields. Can be passed into px.otel.Data() as the data argument.
