# OpenCensus Observability Ready Util for Java
[![Build Status][travis-image]][travis-url]
[![Windows Build Status][appveyor-image]][appveyor-url]
The *OpenCensus Observability Ready Util for Java* allows users to use OpenCensus easily.
It provides a wrapper that
* Enables [Basic RPC views](https://github.com/census-instrumentation/opencensus-java/blob/2a17c8482ffb04540ea4ac0a5f746ad8d536c996/contrib/grpc_metrics/src/main/java/io/opencensus/contrib/grpc/metrics/RpcViews.java#L219)
* Sets Probabilistic sampling rate to `0.0001`
* Creates and Registers OCAgent Exporter to collect traces and metrics
## Quickstart
### Add the dependencies to your project
For Maven add to your `pom.xml`:
```xml
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>io.opencensus</groupId>
<artifactId>opencensus-contrib-observability-ready-util</artifactId>
<version>0.25.0</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
```
For Gradle add to your dependencies:
```groovy
compile 'io.opencensus:opencensus-contrib-observability-ready-util:0.25.0'
```
### Enable OpenCensus:
```java
import io.opencensus.contrib.observability.ready.util.BasicSetup;
public class YourClass {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// It is recommended to call this method before doing any RPC call to avoid missing stats.
BasicSetup.enableOpenCensus("with-service-name");
}
}
```
> If Agent is not yet up and running, Exporter will just retry connection.
### And deploy OpenCensus Agent:
It will require you to deploy the [OpenCensus-Agent](https://github.com/census-instrumentation/opencensus-service#opencensus-agent) in order to export and examine the stats and traces.
The OpenCensus Agent exporter aka “ocagent-exporter” enables your applications to send the
observability that they’ve collected using OpenCensus to the OpenCensus Agent.
