// Grafana Alloy collector config for an xrpld node.
//
// WHY THIS FILE EXISTS
// --------------------
// Some deployments feed telemetry through Grafana Alloy instead of the
// reference OpenTelemetry Collector (otel-collector-config.grafanacloud.yaml).
// xrpld sends OTLP (traces + native beast::insight metrics) to Alloy, which
// forwards to the Grafana Cloud OTLP gateway. That path carries traces and
// native metrics, but on its own produces NO span-derived RED metrics
// (span_calls_total / span_duration_milliseconds_*): those are NOT emitted by
// xrpld -- they are derived by a spanmetrics connector from the spans. Without
// the connector a node is missing from every span-based Grafana dashboard.
//
// This config therefore mirrors the two stages the reference collector has:
//   1. resource tagging  (service.name, deployment.environment, xrpl.network.type)
//   2. spanmetrics       (derives the RED metrics the dashboards query)
// See docker/telemetry/otel-collector-config.grafanacloud.yaml for the
// authoritative collector equivalent; keep the dimension list in sync with it.
//
// PIPELINE
//
//   HOST / SYSTEMD METRICS:
//     unix exporter + custom scrape --> relabel(host) --> prometheus.remote_write
//
//   xrpld OTLP:

//                                                 └─▶ processor.batch ◀───────┘
//                                                          │ traces + metrics
//                                                          ▼
//                                                 exporter.otlphttp (GC OTLP gateway)
//
// The Grafana Cloud OTLP gateway converts OTLP resource attributes to
// Prometheus labels server-side, so no otelcol.exporter.prometheus is needed.
//
// CONFIGURATION -- NO SECRETS OR TENANT IDS ARE HARD-CODED IN THIS FILE.
// All credentials, endpoints, usernames and the per-node host label are read
// from the environment (same pattern as .env.grafanacloud.example). Copy
// .env.grafanacloud-alloy.example to .env.grafanacloud-alloy, fill it in, and
// source it before starting Alloy. Required variables:
//   GRAFANACLOUD_PROM_URL   Prometheus remote_write push URL
//   GRAFANACLOUD_PROM_USER   remote_write basic-auth username (numeric stack id)
//   GRAFANACLOUD_PROM_KEY    remote_write basic-auth password (access token)
//   GRAFANACLOUD_OTLP_URL    OTLP/HTTP gateway URL, including the /otlp path
//   GRAFANACLOUD_OTLP_USER   OTLP basic-auth username (numeric stack id)
//   GRAFANACLOUD_OTLP_KEY    OTLP basic-auth password (access token)
//   XRPLD_HOST_LABEL         host label for this node's scraped metrics
//
// PER-DEPLOYMENT EDITS: the deployment.environment and xrpl.network.type tier
// values in otelcol.processor.transform are literals (OTTL cannot read env
// vars) -- edit them to match this node's tier and network.
