This includes calls made to generate_content for single text-only inputs and calls to send_message for multi-turn conversations.

• Instrument new AWS Kinesis methods

  • Adds botocore instrumentation to support new AWS Kinesis methods including tag_resource, untag_resource, and list_tags_for_resource.

Support statement

We recommend updating to the latest agent version as soon as it's available. If you can't upgrade to the latest version, update your agents to a version no more than 90 days old. Read more about keeping agents up to date.

Bug fixes

• Add parsing of graphql config setting

• Agregar soporte asíncrono para elasticsearch

  • Agrega soporte para elasticsearch asíncrono. ¡Gracias fagnerzulin por la contribución!

Corrección de errores

• Agregar análisis de la configuración de GraphQL

  • Anteriormente, cuando se establecía la configuración instrumentation.graphql.capture_introspection_queries en el archivo de configuración, esta configuración no tenía efecto. Esto fue arreglado.

Notes

This release of the Python agent adds OpenTelemetry compatible datastore span attribute names, fixes a bug in LangChain instrumentation, and temporarily disables Kombu instrumentation.

Install the agent using easy_install/pip/distribute via the Python Package Index or download it directly from the New Relic download site.

New features

• Add OpenTelemetry compatible datastore span attributes

  • The datastore span attributes are now more consistent with OpenTelemetry naming conventions

Bug fixes

• Fix LangChain instrumentation for string response types

  • Previously, when LangChain returned string-type responses, the agent only captured the first character of the string. This has been corrected.

• Disable Kombu instrumentation

  • Existing Kombu instrumentation in the agent is crashing with a TypeError being raised from the inspect module. This instrumentation has been temporarily disabled and will be re-enabled in a future release once the root cause of the crash is identified and patched.

Notas

Esta versión del agente Python agrega almacenamiento de datos compatible OpenTelemetry que abarca nombres de atributos, corrige un error en la instrumentación LangChain y deshabilita temporalmente la instrumentación Kombu .

Instale el agente usando easy_install/pip/distribute a través del Índice de paquetes de Python o descárguelo directamente del sitio de descarga de New Relic.

Nueva característica

• Agregar almacenamiento de datos compatible con OpenTelemetry span atributo

  • El atributo span de almacenamiento de datos ahora es más consistente con las convenciones de nomenclatura de OpenTelemetry

Corrección de errores

• Corregir la instrumentación de LangChain para los tipos de respuesta de cadena

  • Anteriormente, cuando LangChain devolvía respuestas de tipo cadena, el agente solo capturaba el primer carácter de la cadena. Esto fue corregido.

• Desactivar la instrumentación de Kombu

  • La instrumentación Kombu existente en el agente se bloquea y se genera un TypeError desde el módulo inspect . Esta instrumentación se deshabilitó temporalmente y se volverá a habilitar en una versión futura una vez que se identifique y solucione la causa raíz del fallo.

Notes

This release of the Python agent adds support for Kombu, mysqlclient, PyMySQL, and adds a few safeguards to prevent exceptions.

Install the agent using easy_install/pip/distribute via the Python Package Index or download it directly from the New Relic download site.

New features

• Add support for Kombu

  • Add support for producer and consumer message tracing in Kombu.
  • In the case where Celery and Kombu are used together, a transaction is produced for both Celery and Kombu message consumption and Kombu consumer tracing is turned off by default. It can be enabled via the instrumentation.kombu.consumer.enabled setting. A new setting instrumentation.kombu.ignored_exchanges to ignore certain exchanges was also added and by default it ignores the celeryev queue which is a monitoring queue.

• Add support for mysqlclient (a MySQLdb fork for Python 3)

  • Instrumentation for the Python 2 library MySQLdb has been adapted to support the Python 3 fork mysqlclient.

• Update instrumentation for PyMySQL for versions 1.0.3 and above

  • Instrumentation for PyMySQL has been updated for newer versions of the library, and versions below 1.0.3 are no longer supported.

Bug fixes

• Safeguard startup of agent healthchecks against exceptions

  • Previously, the agent healthchecks could raise exceptions during startup, potentially resulting in agent crashes. This has been fixed.

• Fix warning message around garbage collection runtime metrics sampler

  • Previously, a warning message was sometimes emitted which was related to the garbage collection runtime metrics sampler. This has been fixed.

Notes

This release of the Python agent adds support for asynchronous AWS Bedrock LLM calls in aioboto3, a fix for a segfault with greenlets, a fixed a crash in aiomysql instrumentation, and reformatted the codebase with Ruff.

Install the agent using easy_install/pip/distribute via the Python Package Index or download it directly from the New Relic download site.

New features

• Add support for asynchronous AWS Bedrock LLM calls

  • Adds instrumentation to support calls to invoke_model and invoke_model_with_response_stream made on aioboto3 clients

Bug fixes

• Fix crash in aiomysql instrumentation

  • Previously, using aiomysql.sa (the included sqlalchemy engine) with the agent would result in a crash due to a missing __await__ method in the instrumentation. This has been corrected.

• Fix segfaults with greenlets

  • Previously, a segfault occured when the maximum number of worker processes were called. This was due to a combination of using a weak reference for the agent's trace ID caching and greenlet's greenlet.getcurrent() retrieval function being called after the last greenlet has already been garbage collected. This fix allows the worker process to restart without the segfault occurring.

Changes

• Reformatted entire codebase with Ruff

  • Switched to Ruff linter and reformatted the entire codebase.
