Avoid the logs instrumentation for specific instance when there are multiple logger instance

[ruddenchaux]

Hi, I have a Node.js application with multiple logger instances (application and audit) and want to instrument and send only the application instance logs to the collector. I am using the pino logger so the auto instrumentation loads the opentelemetry-instrumentation-pino plugin but the configurations are the same for the opentelemetry-instrumentation-winston and opentelemetry-instrumentation-bunyan plugins. Seeing this, I can't find a way to conditionally instrument a specific logger instance.

Let me give an example.

application log

{ "context": "application", "level": 30, "msg": "Info log"}

audit log

{ "context": "audit", "level": 30, "msg": "Info log"}

I only want the instrumentation when context matches audit.

Is it an expected case?

• This may affect other libraries, but I would like to get opinions here first
