opentelemetry-python-contrib

The Python auto-instrumentation libraries for OpenTelemetry (per OTEP 0001)

Installation

This repository includes installable packages for each instrumented library. Libraries that produce telemetry data should only depend on opentelemetry-api, and defer the choice of the SDK to the application developer. Applications may depend on opentelemetry-sdk or another package that implements the API.

Please note that these libraries are currently in beta, and shouldn't generally be used in production environments.

The instrumentation/ directory includes OpenTelemetry instrumentation packages, which can be installed separately as:

pip install opentelemetry-instrumentation-{integration}

To install the development versions of these packages instead, clone or fork this repo and do an editable install:

pip install -e ./instrumentation/opentelemetry-instrumentation-{integration}

Running Tests Locally

1. Go to your Contrib repo directory. cd ~/git/opentelemetry-python-contrib.
2. Create a virtual env in your Contrib repo directory. python3 -m venv my_test_venv.
3. Activate your virtual env. source my_test_venv/bin/activate.
4. Clone the OpenTelemetry Python Python Core repo to a folder named opentelemetry-python-core. git clone git@github.com:open-telemetry/opentelemetry-python.git opentelemetry-python-core.
5. Change directory to the repo that was just cloned. cd opentelemetry-python-core.
6. Move the head of this repo to the hash you want your tests to use. This is currently the SHA 47483865854c7adae7455f8441dab7f814f4ce2a as seen in .github/workflows/test.yml. Use git fetch && git checkout 47483865854c7adae7455f8441dab7f814f4ce2a.
7. Go back to the root directory. cd ../.
8. Make sure you have tox installed. pip install tox.
9. Run tests for a package. (e.g. tox -e test-instrumentation-flask.)
