AsyncioInstrumentor: Tracing Requests Made by the Asyncio Library
The opentelemetry-instrumentation-asyncio package allows tracing asyncio applications.
It also includes metrics for duration and counts of coroutines and futures. Metrics are generated even if coroutines are not traced.
Set the names of coroutines you want to trace.
-------------------------------------------------
.. code:: bash
export OTEL_PYTHON_ASYNCIO_COROUTINE_NAMES_TO_TRACE=coro_name,coro_name2,coro_name3
If you want to trace specific blocking functions executed with the ``to_thread`` function of asyncio, set the name of the functions in ``OTEL_PYTHON_ASYNCIO_TO_THREAD_FUNCTION_NAMES_TO_TRACE``.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
.. code:: bash
export OTEL_PYTHON_ASYNCIO_TO_THREAD_FUNCTION_NAMES_TO_TRACE=func_name,func_name2,func_name3
You can enable tracing futures with ``OTEL_PYTHON_ASYNCIO_FUTURE_TRACE_ENABLED``
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
.. code:: bash
export OTEL_PYTHON_ASYNCIO_FUTURE_TRACE_ENABLED=true
Run instrumented application
-----------------------------
1. coroutine
--------------------
.. code:: python
# export OTEL_PYTHON_ASYNCIO_COROUTINE_NAMES_TO_TRACE=sleep
import asyncio
from opentelemetry.instrumentation.asyncio import AsyncioInstrumentor
AsyncioInstrumentor().instrument()
async def main():
await asyncio.create_task(asyncio.sleep(0.1))
asyncio.run(main())
2. future
--------------------
.. code:: python
# export OTEL_PYTHON_ASYNCIO_FUTURE_TRACE_ENABLED=true
import asyncio
from opentelemetry.instrumentation.asyncio import AsyncioInstrumentor
AsyncioInstrumentor().instrument()
loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
future = asyncio.Future()
future.set_result(1)
task = asyncio.ensure_future(future)
loop.run_until_complete(task)
3. to_thread
--------------------
.. code:: python
# export OTEL_PYTHON_ASYNCIO_TO_THREAD_FUNCTION_NAMES_TO_TRACE=func
import asyncio
from opentelemetry.instrumentation.asyncio import AsyncioInstrumentor
AsyncioInstrumentor().instrument()
async def main():
await asyncio.to_thread(func)
def func():
pass
asyncio.run(main())
asyncio metric types
----------------------
* `asyncio.process.duration` (seconds) - Duration of asyncio process
* `asyncio.process.count` (count) - Number of asyncio process
