Ability to exclude pubsub data from the OpenTelemetry metrics

[andriusm]

OpenTelemetry metrics endpoint provides data that I want to gather, but it also lists all the pubsub active clients and client data subscriptions. The latter two metrics take up the majority of the metrics available and in my case cause the responses to be very large while not very useful.

I would like to have the ability to turn off the verbose part of the metrics that it pubsub client data. One way of doing that would be to add a INCLUDE_PUBSUB_METRICS option which could be toggled on or off depending on ones needs.

Hey @andriusm ,
Thanks for opening the issue, the open telemetry is a new feature from what I recall.
I'll let the team know about this feature request, besides of that if you are open to contribute it we'd be more than happy to provide some guidance 🤩

@omer9564 thanks for the quick response. I've already created a PR that would implement what I'm describing in this issue. But the github workflow App tests fails for some reason (https://github.com/permitio/opal/actions/runs/13239141636/job/36950411370) even though I don't think my changes should affect such test.

There seems to be an issue with cloning the repo while inside a container. I wonder if everything is ok with how secrets are setup in GitHub, here's a log excerpt:
