Any feedback is welcome. Happy Python visibility. [!NOTE] Support for OpenTracing is deprecated starting on version 3.0.0. If you still want to use it, rely on any version earlier than 3.0.0 or use the legacy 2.x branch. Installation You can use automatic installation or manual installation as described in the following sections: Automatic installation Instana remotely instruments your Python applications automatically by [Instana AutoTrace webhook] in Kubernetes and Red Hat OpenShift clusters. However, if you prefer to install the package manually, see Manual Installation as follows. Manual Installation If you wish to instrument your applications manually, you can install the package with the following into the virtualenv , pipenv , or container (hosted on [PyPI]): pip install instana or to alternatively update an existing installation: pip install -U instana Activating Without Code Changes The Instana package can then be activated without any code changes required by setting the following environment variable for your Python application: export AUTOWRAPT BOOTSTRAP=instana This will cause the Instana Python package to instrument your Python application automatically. Once it finds the Instana host agent, it will report Python metrics and distributed traces.
