Release Notes

v0.58.1

Bug Fixes

  • Fix internal import of deprecated ddtrace.utils module.

  • Fixes import path to not reference __init__. This could otherwise be a problem for mypy.

v0.58.0

New Features

  • botocore: add distributed tracing support for AWS EventBridge, AWS SNS & AWS Kinesis.

  • Only for CI Visibility (pytest integration): remove traces whose root span is not a test.

Deprecation Notes

  • HttpServerConfig is no longer part of the public API.

  • ddtrace.Span.pprint() is deprecated and will be removed in v1.0.

  • ddtrace.Tracer.writer is deprecated. To force flushing of buffered traces to the agent, use ddtrace.Tracer.flush() instead.

Bug Fixes

  • Fix application crash on startup when using channels >= 3.0.

  • Fix parenting of Redis command spans when using aioredis 1.3. Redis spans should now be correctly attributed as child of any active parent spans.

  • Fixes incompatibility of wrapped aioredis pipelines in async with statements.

  • Fixes issue with aioredis when empty pool is not available and execute returns a coroutine instead of a future. When patch tries to add callback for the span using add_done_callback function it crashes because this function is only for futures.

  • Escape non-Unicode bytes when decoding aioredis args. This fixes a UnicodeDecodeError that can be thrown from the aioredis integration when interacting with binary-encoded data, as is done in channels-redis.

  • Ensure gevent is automatically patched.

  • grpc: ensure grpc.intercept_channel is unpatched properly

  • Fix JSON encoding error when a bytes string is used for span metadata.

  • Profiler raises a typing error when Span.resource is unicode on Python 2.7.

  • Fix a bug in the heap profiler that could be triggered if more than 2^16 memory items were freed during heap data collection.

  • Fix a possible bug in the heap memory profiler that could trigger an overflow when too many allocations were being tracked.

  • Fix an issue in the heap profiler where it would iterate on the wrong heap allocation tracker.

  • Pymongo instrumentation raises an AttributeError when tracer.enabled == False

Upgrade Notes

  • The aredis integration is now enabled by default.

Deprecation Notes

  • The ddtrace.utils module and all of its submodules have been copied over into ddtrace.internal in an effort to internalize these modules. Their public counterparts will be removed entirely in version 1.0.0.

  • The contents of monkey.py have been moved into _monkey.py in an effort to internalize the module. Public methods have been imported back into monkey.py in order to retain compatibility, but monkey.py will be removed entirely in version 1.0.0.

  • Ensure tornado spans are marked as an error if the response status code is 500 <= x < 600.

  • Configure a writer thread in a child process after forking based on writer configuration from its parent process.

  • Fix Pyramid caller_package level issue which resulted in crashes when starting Pyramid applications. Level now left at default (2).

  • Set the correct package name in the Pyramid instrumentation. This should fix an issue where the incorrect package name was being used which would crash the application when trying to do relative imports within Pyramid (e.g. when including routes from a relative path).

  • Pin setup_requires dependency setuptools_scm[toml]>=4,<6.1 to avoid breaking changes.

  • The profiler now updates the trace resource when capturing span information with the stack and lock collectors. That means that if the trace resource changes after the profiling events are created, the profiler samples will also be updated. This avoids having trace resource being empty when profiling, e.g., WSGI middleware.

v0.52.2

    ddtrace.contrib.asgi.span_from_scope function.

  • Submit runtime metrics as distribution metrics instead of gauge metrics.

  • Support flask-caching (>= 1.10.0) with the Flask-Cache tracer.

  • The ddtrace.Tracer.get_log_correlation_context method has been added to replace ddtrace.helpers.get_correlation_ids. It now returns a dictionary which includes the current span’s trace and span ids, as well as the configured service, version, and environment names.

  • Only for CI Visibility (pytest integration): It is now possible to specify any of the following git metadata through environment variables: * DD_GIT_REPOSITORY_URL: The url of the repository where the code is stored * DD_GIT_TAG: The tag of the commit, if it has one * DD_GIT_BRANCH: The branch where this commit belongs to * DD_GIT_COMMIT_SHA: The commit hash of the current code * DD_GIT_COMMIT_MESSAGE: Commit message * DD_GIT_COMMIT_AUTHOR_NAME: Commit author name * DD_GIT_COMMIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL: Commit author email * DD_GIT_COMMIT_AUTHOR_DATE: The commit author date (ISO 8601) * DD_GIT_COMMIT_COMMITTER_NAME: Commit committer name * DD_GIT_COMMIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL: Commit committer email * DD_GIT_COMMIT_COMMITTER_DATE: The commit committer date (ISO 8601)

Deprecation Notes

  • Removed the collect_metrics argument from Tracer.configure. See the release notes for v0.49.0 for the migration instructions.

Bug Fixes

  • ASGI: handle decoding errors when extracting headers for trace propagation.

  • Corrected some typing annotations for PEP 484 compliance

  • Django: add support for version 3.1+ ASGI applications. A different codepath is taken for requests starting in Django 3.1 which led to the top level span not being generated for requests. The fix introduces automatic installation of the ASGI middleware to trace Django requests.

  • dogpile.cache: handle both kwargs and args in the wrapper functions (using

    only kwargs would result in an IndexError.

  • Fixes an issue with the Django integration where if the urlconf changes at any point during the handling of the request then the resource name will only be <METHOD> 404. This fix moves resource name resolution to the end of the request.

  • Fixes error with tagging non-string Flask view args.

  • werkzeug.exceptions.NotFound 404 errors are no longer raised and logged as a server error in the Flask integration.

  • Fixes type hinting for **patch_modules parameter for patch/patch_all functions.

  • Fixes an issue when using the pytest plugin with doctest which raises an AttributeError on DoctestItem.

  • Fixes a bug in the pytest plugin where xfail test cases in a test file with a module-wide skip raises attribute errors and are marked as xfail rather than skipped.

  • Fixed the handling of sanic endpoint paths with non-string arguments.

  • opentracer: don’t override default tracing config for the ENABLED,

    AGENT_HOSTNAME, AGENT_HTTPS or AGENT_PORT settings.

v0.51.3

Bug Fixes

  • Pin setup_requires dependency setuptools_scm[toml]>=4,<6.1 to avoid breaking changes.

  • The profiler now exports active tasks for CPU and wall time profiles.

  • The pytest integration now uses the name of the repository being tested as the default test service name.

Upgrade Notes

  • botocore: Update trace propagation format for directly invoked Lambda functions. This breaks compatibility with Lambda functions instrumented with datadog-lambda-python < v41 or datadog-lambda-js < v3.57.0. Please upgrade datadog-lambda-* in invoked lambda functions, or engage legacy compatibility mode in one of two ways: - ddtrace.config.botocore.invoke_with_legacy_context = True - DD_BOTOCORE_INVOKE_WITH_LEGACY_CONTEXT=true

  • The legacy Django configuration method (deprecated in 0.34) has been removed.

Deprecation Notes

    only kwargs would result in an IndexError.

  • Fixed JSON encoding errors in the pytest plugin for parameterized tests with dictionary parameters with tuple keys. The pytest plugin now always JSON encodes the string representations of test parameters.

  • Fixed JSON encoding errors in the pytest plugin for parameterized tests with complex Python object parameters. The pytest plugin now defaults to encoding the string representations of non-JSON serializable test parameters.

  • Fixes an issue with enabling the runtime worker introduced in v0.49.0 where no runtime metrics were sent to the agent.

  • Fix pymongo 3.12.0+ spans not being generated.

  • Fix a possible NoneType error in the WSGI middleware start_response method.

v0.50.0

Prelude

Major changes to context management. See the upgrade section for the specifics. Note that only advanced users of the library should be affected by these changes. For the details please refer to the Context section of the docs: https://ddtrace.readthedocs.io/en/v0.50.0/advanced_usage.html

New Features

  • Add new DD_TRACE_AGENT_TIMEOUT_SECONDS to override the default connection timeout used when sending data to the trace agent. The default is 2.0 seconds.

  • Add DD_CALL_BASIC_CONFIG={true,false} environment variable to control whether ddtrace calls logging.basicConfig. By default when using ddtrace-run or running in debug mode logging.basicConfig is called to ensure there is always a root handler. This has compatibility issues for some logging configurations. DD_CALL_BASIC_CONFIG=false can be used to skip calling logging.basicConfig. The default value is true to maintain existing behavior.

  • Add new environment variables to configure the internal trace writer.

    DD_TRACE_WRITER_MAX_BUFFER_SIZE, DD_TRACE_WRITER_INTERVAL_SECONDS, DD_TRACE_WRITER_MAX_PAYLOAD_SIZE_BYTES

  • agent: support URL with a base path

  • Automated context management should now work in all asynchronous frameworks that use contextvars.

  • tracer.start_span() now accepts an activate argument (default False) to allow manual context management.

  • tracer.current_trace_context() has been added to be used to access the trace context of the active trace.

  • A warning has been added to alert when gevent monkey patching is done after ddtrace has been imported.

  • The CI tagging for the pytest plugin now includes OS and Python Runtime metadata including system architecture, platform, version, and Python runtime name and version.

  • The Python heap profiler can now be enabled by setting the DD_PROFILING_HEAP_ENABLED environment variable to 1.

  • The exception profiler now gathers and exports the traces and spans information.

  • The pytest plugin now includes support for automatically tagging spans with parameters in parameterized tests.

  • Add support for Flask 2

  • Added retry logic to the tracer to mitigate potential networking issues, like timeouts or dropped connections.

Upgrade Notes

  • ddtrace.contrib.asyncio - AsyncioContextProvider can now return and activate None, Span or Context objects.

  • ddtrace.contrib.gevent - GeventContextProvider can now return and activate None, Span or Context objects.

  • ddtrace.contrib.tornado - TracerStackContext can now return and activate None, Span or Context objects.

  • ddtrace.context.Context no longer maintains the active/current span state.

    get_current_root_span() has been removed. Use tracer.current_root_span() instead. get_current_span() has been removed. Use tracer.current_span() instead. add_span() has been removed. To activate a span in an execution use tracer.context_provider.activate() instead. close_span() has been removed. To deactivate a span in an execution use tracer.context_provider.activate() instead.

  • ddtrace.provider.BaseContextProvider active() now returns None, Span or Context objects. activate() now accepts None, Span or Context objects.

  • ddtrace.span.Span - Span.context will now return a Context

  • ddtrace.tracer.Tracer tracer.get_call_context() will now return a one-off Context reference. This is to maintain backwards compatibility with the API but the functionality differs slightly. tracer.start_span() passing a span.context for child_of no longer adds the strong _parent reference to the new span.

  • Support for MySQL-python has been removed.

  • Support for psycopg < 2.7 has been removed.

Deprecation Notes

  • The reuse of a tracer that has been shut down has been deprecated. A new tracer should be created for generating new traces.

  • The deprecated dbapi2 configuration has been removed. The integration-specific configuration should be used instead. Look at the v0.48.0 release notes for migration instructions.

Bug Fixes

  • The OpenTracing tracer.start_span method no longer activates spans.

  • Datadog active spans will no longer take precedence over OpenTracing active spans.

  • The shutdown task is re-registered when a tracer is reused after it has been shut down.

  • django: fix a bug where multiple database backends would not be instrumented.

  • django: fix a bug when postgres query is composable sql object.

  • Fixed the handling of the Django template name tag causing type errors.

  • Fixes an issue when trying to manually start the runtime metrics worker:

    AttributeError: module 'ddtrace.internal.runtime' has no attribute 'runtime_metrics'

  • Fixes an issue with enabling the runtime worker introduced in v0.49.0 where no runtime metrics were sent to the agent.

  • sanic: update instrumentation to support version 21.

  • Fixed the optional argument of Span.finish to Optional[float] instead of Optional[int].

  • Performance of the Celery integration has been improved.

  • Fix double patching of pymongo client topology.

  • Fix runtime-id and system.pid tags not being set on distributed traces.

Other Notes

  • The botocore integration excludes AWS endpoint call parameters that have a name ending with Body from the set of span tags.

  • The pytest plugin now includes git metadata tags including author name and email as well as commit message from CI provider environments.

  • The profiler won’t be ignoring its own resource usage anymore and will report it in the profiles.

v0.49.4

Bug Fixes

  • Fixes an issue when trying to manually start the runtime metrics worker:

    AttributeError: module 'ddtrace.internal.runtime' has no attribute 'runtime_metrics'

  • Fixes an issue with enabling the runtime worker introduced in v0.49.0 where no runtime metrics were sent to the agent.

v0.49.3

Bug Fixes

  • django: fix a bug where multiple database backends would not be instrumented.

  • django: fix a bug when postgres query is composable sql object.

v0.49.2

Bug Fixes

v0.49.1

New Features

  • Add support for Flask 2

v0.49.0

Prelude

Several deprecations have been made to Context as we prepare to move active span management out of this class.

New Features

  • The futures integration is now enabled by default.

  • requests: add global config support. This enables the requests service name to be configured with ddtrace.config.requests['service'] or the DD_REQUESTS_SERVICE environment variable.

Upgrade Notes

  • Support for aiohttp previous to 2.0 has been removed.

  • Support for deprecated DD_PROFILING_API_URL environment variable has been removed. Use DD_SITE instead.

  • Support for deprecated DD_PROFILING_API_KEY environment variable has been removed. Use DD_API_KEY instead.

  • Profiling support for agentless mode must now be explicitly enabled.

  • The ddtrace pytest plugin can now label spans from test cases marked xfail with the tag “pytest.result”

    and the reason for being marked xfail under the tag “pytest.xfail.reason”.

  • requests: spans will no longer inherit the service name from the parent.

  • The return value of Span.pprint() has been changed to a single line in the tracer debug logs rather than the previous custom multiline format.

  • Spans are now processed per tracer instance. Formerly spans were stored per-Context which could be shared between tracer instances. Note that context management is not affected. Tracers will still share active spans.

  • Spans from asynchronous executions (asyncio, gevent, tornado) will now be processed and flushed together. Formerly the spans were handled per-task.

  • tracer.write() will no longer have filters applied to the spans passed to it.

  • The function ddtrace.utils.merge_dicts has been removed.

Deprecation Notes

  • Context.clone is deprecated. It will not be required in 0.50.

  • Deprecate the configuration of the analytics through the generic dbapi2 configuration. This should now be configured via integration configurations, for example:

    # Before
export DD_TRACE_DBAPI2_ANALYTICS_ENABLED=1

# After
export DD_TRACE_SQLITE3_ANALYTICS_ENABLED=1

  • ddtrace.compat has been deprecated and will be removed from the public API in ddtrace version 1.0.0.

  • Deprecate ddtrace.config.dbapi2 as default for TracedCursor and TracedConnection as well as DD_DBAPI2_TRACE_FETCH_METHODS. Use IntegrationConfig and DD_<INTEGRATION>_TRACE_FETCH_METHODS specific to each dbapi-compliant library. For example:

    # Before
config.dbapi2.trace_fetch_methods = True

# After
config.psycopg2.trace_fetch_methods = True

  • The use of ddtrace.encoding has been deprecated and will be removed in version 1.0.0.

  • The ddtrace.http module has been deprecated and will be removed in version 1.0.0, with the ddtrace.http.headers module now merged into ddtrace.trace_utils.

  • The collect_metrics argument of the tracer.configure method has been deprecated. Runtime metrics should be enabled only via the DD_RUNTIME_METRICS_ENABLED environment variable.

  • CGroup file parsing was fixed to correctly parse container ID with preceding characters.

  • grpc: handle None values for span tags.

  • grpc: handle no package in fully qualified method

  • grpc: Add done callback in streaming response to avoid unfinished spans if a StopIteration is never raised, as is found in the Google Cloud libraries.

v0.48.1

Bug Fixes

  • Fix urllib3 patching not properly activating the integration.

  • In certain circumstances, the profiles generated in a uWSGI application could have been empty. This is now fixed and the profiler records correctly the generated events.

v0.48.0

New Features

  • Adds support for the Datadog Lambda Extension. The tracer will send traces to the extension by default if it is present.

  • Add support for space-separated DD_TAGS.

  • dogpile.cache: is now automatically instrumented by default.

  • urllib3: add urllib3 integration

  • pylons: now supports all the standard http tagging including query string, custom error codes, and request/response headers.

  • The ddtrace pytest plugin can now call ddtrace.patch_all via the --ddtrace-patch-all option.

  • Span now accepts a on_finish argument used for specifying functions to call when a span finishes.

Upgrade Notes

  • The deprecated dogstatsd_host and dogstatsd_port arguments to tracer.configure() have been removed.

  • Support for gevent 1.0 has been removed and gevent >= 1.1 is required.

  • flask: deprecated configuration option extra_error_codes has been removed.

  • The deprecated pyddprofile wrapper has been removed. Use ddtrace-run with DD_PROFILING_ENABLED=1 set instead.

  • A ValueError will now be raised on tracer initialization if the Agent URL specified to the initializer or with the environment variable DD_TRACE_AGENT_URL is malformed.

  • uWSGI is no longer supported with ddtrace-run due to a limitation of how tracer initialization occurs. See the updated instructions for enabling tracing in the library uWSGI documentation.

Bug Fixes

  • The Records parameter to Firehose endpoint calls is being excluded from the tags to avoid generating traces with a large payload.

  • Tracer: fix configuring tracer with dogstatsd url.

  • elasticsearch: patch versioned elasticsearch modules (elasticsearch1, …, elasticsearch7).

  • botocore: Do not assume that ResponseMeta exists in the results.

  • django: handle erroneous middleware gracefully.

  • The tracer now captures the task ID from the cgroups file for Fargate >= 1.4.0 and reports it to the agent as the Datadog-Container-ID tag.

  • Fix a bug when tracing a mako DefTemplate or any Template that does not have a filename property.

  • flask: fix a bug when the query string would contain non-Unicode characters

  • Fix a formatting issue on error exporting profiles.

  • A workaround is provided for the problem with uWSGI worker processes failing to respawn. This can occur when using ddtrace-run for automatic instrumentation and configuration or manual instrumentation and configuration without the necessary uWSGI options. The problem is caused by how the tracer can end up starting threads in the master process before uWSGI forks to initialize the workers processes. To avoid this, we have provided updated instructions for enabling tracing in the library uWSGI documentation.

Other Notes

  • The logic behind the header extraction for distributed tracing has been improved.

  • The default connection timeout for the profiling agent has now been reduced from 10 to 2 seconds to match the tracer behavior.

  • The tracemalloc memory profiler, which was disabled by default, has been removed.

  • Query strings are stripped out from URLs by default when setting URL metadata on a span. This change affects all integrations that store HTTP metadata, like aiohttp, falcon, requests, urllib3.
