Logback OpenTelemetryAppender does not capture logger name as attribute

[YuriyHolinko]

OpenTelemetryAppender does not allow us to enrich log records with logger name.

The only possible approach is to have the logger name attribute in log record is to use MDC, which is overhead imho.

We can add the functionality to the OpenTelemetryAppender to enrich log record with logger name attribute.

With the Logback OpenTelemetryAppender, you can have access to the logger name from the instrumentation scope of the log record.

in your otel-collector yaml config you can add transform

processors:
  transform/logs:
    log_statements:
      - context: scope
        statements:
          - set(attributes["log.logger"], name)

thanks, it was a problem on our server side, where instrumentation scope name was ignored
