autodynatrace, a python library that implements automatic instrumentation using the OneAgent SDK for Python

OneAgent-SDK-Python-AutoInstrumentation

⚠️ Dynatrace is now able to ingest Opentelemetry traces, consider using OpenTelemetry Python instead of autodynatrace for wider community support. There is a guide here.

Dynatrace provides a powerful SDK that can be used to achieve code level visibility and transaction tracing for applications written in multiple languages, including python. This project provides a library called autodynatrace, which is a wrapper around the OneAgent SDK for Python and allows you to instrument python applications with minimal code changes.

Usage

pip install autodynatrace

Option 1 - Instrumentation without code changes

Add the environment variable AUTOWRAPT_BOOTSTRAP=autodynatrace to your python processes

Option 2 - Semi-Auto Instrumentation

For most technologies, just import it in your code.

import autodynatrace
