๐Ÿ“ฆ Installation

Choose Your Instrumentor Type:

HoneyHive supports both OpenInference (lightweight) and OpenLLMetry (enhanced metrics) instrumentors.

Option A: OpenInference (Recommended for Beginners)

# Install with OpenAI integration (most common)
pip install honeyhive[openinference-openai]

# Install with Anthropic integration  
pip install honeyhive[openinference-anthropic]

# Install with Google AI integration
pip install honeyhive[openinference-google-ai]

# Install with multiple providers
pip install honeyhive[openinference-openai,openinference-anthropic,openinference-google-ai]

# Install all OpenInference integrations
pip install honeyhive[all-openinference]

Option B: OpenLLMetry (Enhanced Metrics)

# Install with OpenAI integration (enhanced metrics)
pip install honeyhive[traceloop-openai]

# Install with Anthropic integration  
pip install honeyhive[traceloop-anthropic]

# Install with Google AI integration
pip install honeyhive[traceloop-google-ai]

# Install with multiple providers
pip install honeyhive[traceloop-openai,traceloop-anthropic,traceloop-google-ai]

# Install all OpenLLMetry integrations
pip install honeyhive[all-traceloop]

Option C: Mix Both Types

# Strategic mixing based on your needs
pip install honeyhive[traceloop-openai,openinference-anthropic]

Basic Installation (manual instrumentor setup required):

pip install honeyhive

๐Ÿ“‹ Including in Your Project

For detailed guidance on including HoneyHive in your pyproject.toml, see our pyproject.toml Integration Guide.

๐Ÿ”ง Quick Start

Basic Usage

from honeyhive import HoneyHiveTracer, trace

# Initialize tracer
tracer = HoneyHiveTracer.init(
    api_key="your-api-key",
    project="your-project",
    source="production"
)

# Use unified decorator for automatic tracing (works with both sync and async)
@trace(event_type="demo", event_name="my_function")
def my_function():
    return "Hello, World!"

@trace(event_type="demo", event_name="my_async_function")
async def my_async_function():
    await asyncio.sleep(0.1)
    return "Hello, Async World!"

# Manual span management
with tracer.start_span("custom-operation"):
    # Your code here
    pass

# With HTTP tracing enabled (new simplified API)
tracer = HoneyHiveTracer.init(
    api_key="your-api-key",
    source="production",
    disable_http_tracing=False  # project derived from API key
)

Initialization

The HoneyHiveTracer.init() method is the recommended way to initialize the tracer:

from honeyhive import HoneyHiveTracer

# Standard initialization
tracer = HoneyHiveTracer.init(
    api_key="your-api-key",
    source="production"  # project derived from API key
)

# With custom server URL for self-hosted deployments
tracer = HoneyHiveTracer.init(
    api_key="your-api-key",
    source="production",
    server_url="https://custom-server.com"  # project derived from API key
)

Enhanced Features Available

from honeyhive import HoneyHiveTracer
from openinference.instrumentation.openai import OpenAIInstrumentor

# All features are available in the init method
tracer = HoneyHiveTracer.init(
    api_key="your-api-key",
    project="your-project",
    source="production",
    test_mode=True,  # Test mode support
    instrumentors=[OpenAIInstrumentor()],  # Auto-integration
    disable_http_tracing=True  # Performance control
)

โœ… The init method now supports ALL constructor features!

OpenInference Integration

from honeyhive import HoneyHiveTracer
from openinference.instrumentation.openai import OpenAIInstrumentor

# Initialize tracer with OpenInference instrumentor (recommended pattern)
tracer = HoneyHiveTracer.init(
    api_key="your-api-key",
    project="your-project",
    source="production",
    instrumentors=[OpenAIInstrumentor()]  # Auto-integration
)

# OpenInference automatically traces OpenAI calls
import openai
response = openai.ChatCompletion.create(
    model="gpt-3.5-turbo",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}]
)

Enriching Spans and Sessions

v1.0+ Recommended Pattern: Instance Methods

from honeyhive import HoneyHiveTracer

# Initialize tracer
tracer = HoneyHiveTracer.init(
    api_key="your-api-key",
    project="your-project"
)

# Use instance methods for enrichment (PRIMARY - Recommended)
@tracer.trace(event_type="tool")
def my_function(input_data):
    result = process_data(input_data)
    
    # โœ… Instance method (PRIMARY pattern in v1.0+)
    tracer.enrich_span(
        metadata={"input": input_data, "result": result},
        metrics={"processing_time_ms": 150}
    )
    
    return result

# Enrich session with user properties
tracer.enrich_session(
    user_properties={"user_id": "user-123", "plan": "premium"}
)

Legacy Pattern: Free Functions (Backward Compatibility)

For backward compatibility, the free function pattern from v0.2.x still works:

from honeyhive import trace, enrich_span, enrich_session

# Free functions with automatic tracer discovery (LEGACY)
@trace(event_type="tool")
def my_function(input_data):
    result = process_data(input_data)
    
    # Free function with auto-discovery (backward compatible)
    enrich_span(
        metadata={"input": input_data, "result": result},
        metrics={"processing_time_ms": 150}
    )
    
    return result

# Enrich session via free function
enrich_session(user_properties={"user_id": "user-123"})

โš ๏ธ Deprecation Notice: Free functions will be deprecated in v2.0. We recommend migrating to instance methods for new code.

Why Instance Methods?

  • โœ… Explicit tracer reference (no auto-discovery overhead)
  • โœ… Better multi-instance support (multiple tracers in same process)
  • โœ… Clearer code (explicit is better than implicit)
  • โœ… Future-proof (primary pattern going forward)

Key Design Principles

  1. Singleton Pattern - Single tracer instance per application
  2. Environment Configuration - Flexible configuration via environment variables
  3. Graceful Degradation - Fallback mechanisms for missing dependencies
  4. Test Isolation - Comprehensive test suite with proper isolation
  5. OpenTelemetry Compliance - Full OTEL standard compliance
