support auth header?

[ddatsh]

http {
    otel_exporter {
        endpoint "http://your-otel-collector-endpoint";
        header "Authorization" "Bearer your-auth-token";
    }

nginx: [emerg] unknown directive "header" in "otel_exporter"

How do you obtain the module? These changes might not have been published in prebuilt binaries.

I am unable to use this either, currently using the otel image from nginx docker (nginx:bookworm-otel). I thought it had not been released yet?

Hi @p-pautov

I see you already added support for custom headers in this commit and in this one. Thanks a lot!

I have a question: can you release a new version of nginx-otel (v0.1.2 I suppose) and add a new Nginx image with updated Otel support to the official docker hub page? Currently otel version of nginx uses nginx-otel v0.1.1 (ie without headers).
