Instrumented Python packages

This document lists the packages and modules automatically instrumented by the Python agent after you install it. You can also use custom instrumentation if you want to:

  • Disable instrumentation for specific packages or modules if the instrumentation interferes with your app.
  • Instrument a-third party package or module that is not instrumented automatically by the agent.
  • Add more specific instrumentation for your own code, such as to track the time spent in additional functions.

To request built-in instrumentation for additional packages, get support at support.newrelic.com.

SQL database adapters

For Python DB-API 2.0 compliant modules listed in this section, the Python agent supports:

  • Timing of database queries
  • Capturing SQL for the database query
  • Capturing a stack trace for long database queries
  • MySQL and PostgreSQ only: Capturing explain plans for slow database queries

The Python agent should be able to track database queries for any Python DB-API 2.0 compliant modules. However, the Python agent only officially supports the modules listed in this section.

For the following database adapters, we provides additional instrumentation for functionality outside of the DB-API 2.0 specification, such as shortcut methods to execute queries without creating cursors:

If your database client module is not listed in this section, get support at support.newrelic.com. New Relic Support may be able to suggest a temporary change to your config file to get it working.
