The honeycomb.io Python exporter for OpenTelemetry

opentelemetry-exporter-python

The honeycomb.io Python exporter for OpenTelemetry

NOTE: Did you know that Honeycomb now supports OTLP ingest directly? This means you can use an OTLP exporter and no longer need this exporter to send data to Honeycomb.

Install

pip install opentelemetry-ext-honeycomb

Initialize

from opentelemetry import trace
from opentelemetry.ext.honeycomb import HoneycombSpanExporter
from opentelemetry.sdk.trace import TracerProvider
from opentelemetry.sdk.trace.export import BatchExportSpanProcessor

trace.set_tracer_provider(TracerProvider())
exporter = HoneycombSpanExporter(
    service_name="test-service",
    writekey=<HONEYCOMB_API_KEY>,
    dataset=<HONEYCOMB_DATASET>,
)

trace.get_tracer_provider().add_span_processor(BatchExportSpanProcessor(exporter))

tracer = trace.get_tracer(__name__)
with tracer.start_as_current_span('span_one'):
    with tracer.start_as_current_span('span_two'):
        with tracer.start_as_current_span('span_three'):
            print("Hello, from a child span")
