Tracing

Apollo

To enable Apollo tracing you can use the ApolloTracingExtension provided:

from strawberry.extensions.tracing import ApolloTracingExtension
schema = strawberry.Schema(query=Query, extensions=[ApolloTracingExtension])

Note that if you’re not running under ASGI you’d need to use the sync version of ApolloTracingExtension:

from strawberry.extensions.tracing import ApolloTracingExtensionSync
schema = strawberry.Schema(query=Query, extensions=[ApolloTracingExtensionSync])

Datadog

In addition to Apollo Tracing we also support tracing with Datadog . using the DatadogTracingExtension.

from strawberry.extensions.tracing import DatadogTracingExtension
schema = strawberry.Schema(query=Query, extensions=[DatadogTracingExtension])

Note that if you’re not running under ASGI you’d need to use the sync version of DatadogTracingExtension:

from strawberry.extensions.tracing import DatadogTracingExtensionSync
schema = strawberry.Schema(query=Query, extensions=[DatadogTracingExtensionSync])

Open Telemetry

In addition to Datadog and Apollo Tracing we also support opentelemetry , using the OpenTelemetryExtension.

You also need to install the extras for opentelemetry by doing:

Terminal window
pip install 'strawberry-graphql[opentelemetry]'
from strawberry.extensions.tracing import OpenTelemetryExtension
schema = strawberry.Schema(query=Query, extensions=[OpenTelemetryExtension])

Note that if you’re not running under ASGI you’d need to use the sync version of OpenTelemetryExtension:

from strawberry.extensions.tracing import OpenTelemetryExtensionSync
schema = strawberry.Schema(query=Query, extensions=[OpenTelemetryExtensionSync])

Example Elasticsearch, Kibana, APM, Collector docker-compose to track django and strawberry tracing metrics

This will spin up:

Requirements:

Terminal window
pip install opentelemetry-api
pip install opentelemetry-sdk
pip install opentelemetry-exporter-otlp

in the manage.py
