• 🔄 Zero-configuration setup - just import and go!
• 🤖 Automatic framework detection and integration
  • OpenAI Agents SDK
  • Google ADK
  • CrewAI
  • LangChain
• 🎯 Manual instrumentation if needed
• 🔌 Extensible backend system
• 🚀 Async/sync support

Installation

pip install tracenet

Quick Start

The simplest way to use tracenet is to just import it:

# Just import the package - it automatically sets up tracing
import tracenet

# Your existing code will now be traced automatically!

If you need more control, you can use the manual instrumentation:

from tracenet import trace, start_span, start_generation

# Optional: Use decorators for specific functions
@trace(name="my_function")
def my_function(arg1, arg2):
    return arg1 + arg2

# Optional: Use context managers for manual tracing
with start_span("manual_operation") as span:
    result = perform_operation()
    span.update(output=result)

# Optional: Track LLM generations specifically
with start_generation("text_generation", model="gpt-4") as span:
    response = llm.generate("Hello!")
    span.update(output=response)

Configuration

The package uses environment variables for configuration:

• Tracenet_TRACER: The tracing backend to use (default: 'langfuse')
• Tracenet_SERVICE_NAME: Service name for framework integrations (default: 'agent_service')
• AGENT_NAME: Agent name for automatic tagging of all traces. Can be set programmatically or via environment variable (optional)

For Langfuse backend:

• LANGFUSE_PUBLIC_KEY
• LANGFUSE_SECRET_KEY
• LANGFUSE_HOST (optional)

API Reference

Automatic Tracing

Just import the package and it will automatically:

• Detect and instrument supported frameworks
• Set up appropriate tracing backends
• Configure default settings

Manual Instrumentation (Optional)

Decorators

@trace(name=None, **kwargs)

@trace(name="custom_name", tags=["tag1", "tag2"])
def my_function():
    pass

Context Managers

start_span(context, **kwargs)

with start_span("operation_name", tags=["tag1"]) as span:
    result = operation()
    span.update(output=result)

start_generation(name, model, **kwargs)

with start_generation("text_gen", model="gpt-4") as span:
    response = llm.generate("prompt")
    span.update(output=response)

Agent Name Configuration

set_agent_name(name)

from tracenet import set_agent_name

# Set agent name for all traces (overrides AGENT_NAME environment variable)
set_agent_name('MyAgentName')

Environment Variable (Recommended)

# .env file
AGENT_NAME=MyProductionAgent

All traces will be automatically tagged with the agent name for better organization and filtering.

Utility Functions

flush()

from tracenet import flush

# After operations
flush()
