Python
Instrument your app using the
opentelemetry-instrumentation package and export traces to Aspecto's opentelemetry collector.pip install opentelemetry-instrumentation
pip install opentelemetry-distro
pip install opentelemetry-exporter-otlp-proto-grpc
To create automatic traces from packages you use in your application (flask, requests, etc), you need to additionally install a relevant instrumentation package. For example, if you use
flask in your application, you need to install the package opentelemetry-instrumentation-flask .To print recommended instrumentation packages based on your active site-packages directory, run:
opentelemetry-bootstrap --action=requirements
To install these packages, run:
opentelemetry-bootstrap --action=install
You can also directly install a specific instrumentation package. A list of community instrumentation packages can be found in the opentelemetry-python-contrib repo here
You need to setup the following environment variables to export the traces to Aspecto:
OTEL_SERVICE_NAME- set to the name of the serviceOTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_HEADERS- set toAuthorization=${YOUR_ASPECTO_TOKEN}. You can get your token here.OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_ENDPOINT- set tohttps://otelcol.aspecto.io:4317
Then, run your app with the
opentelemetry-instrument command:opentelemetry-instrument python app.py
