  OpenTelemetry instrumentation for Python modules

  

More specifically, auto-instrumentation uses shims or bytecode instrumentation agents to intercept your code at runtime or at compile-time to add tracing and metrics instrumentation to the libraries and frameworks you depend on. The beauty of auto-instrumentation is that it requires a minimum amount of effort. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show. A number of popular Python libraries are auto-instrumented, including Flask and Django. You can find the full list here.

Note how we don’t have to set a LS_ACCESS_TOKEN, since that’s already configured in the Collector’s config.yml file. Just make sure that you have a running OTel Collector instance!

  Launcher, a Lightstep Distro for OpenTelemetry Python 🚀

  

If you thought it was easy-peasey to send OTel data to Lightstep à la auto-instrumentation agent, then it’s even easier to do it via the OTel Python Launcher! Think of it as an OTel wrapper to make it extra-easy to send data to Lightstep, by having a bunch of things pre-configured for you to lower that barrier to entry.

We need to force a specific version of protobuf because of Launcher compatibility issues with newer versions. This was already fixed in opentelemetry-python.
