Apilytics for Python - Easy API analytics for Python backends

Overview

pypi ci codecov mypy checked code style: black python versions license

Installation

  1. Sign up and get your API key from https://apilytics.io - we offer a completely free trial with no credit card required!

  2. Install this package:

pip install apilytics
  1. Enable the middleware and set your API key:
    A good practice is to securely store the API key as an environment variable.
    You can leave the env variable unset in e.g. development and test environments, the middleware will be automatically disabled if the key is None.

Django:

settings.py:

import os

APILYTICS_API_KEY = os.getenv("APILYTICS_API_KEY")

MIDDLEWARE = [
    "apilytics.django.ApilyticsMiddleware",
]

FastAPI:

main.py:

import os

from apilytics.fastapi import ApilyticsMiddleware
from fastapi import FastAPI

app = FastAPI()

app.add_middleware(ApilyticsMiddleware, api_key=os.getenv("APILYTICS_API_KEY"))

Other Python Frameworks:

You can easily build your own middleware which measures the execution time and sends the metrics:

my_apilytics_middleware.py:

import os

from apilytics.core import ApilyticsSender


def my_apilytics_middleware(request, get_response):
  with ApilyticsSender(
      api_key=os.getenv("APILYTICS_API_KEY"),
      path=request.path,
      method=request.method,
  ) as sender:
      response = get_response(request)
      sender.set_response_info(status_code=response.status_code)
  return response

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the middleware slow down my backend?

  • No. The middleware does all of its requests to the Apilytics API in a background thread pool, so it will not slow down your normal request handling.

What 3rd party dependencies does apilytics have?

  • None besides the frameworks that you use it in.

What Python versions does the package work with?

Comments
  • Explicitly handle closing `urllib.request.urlopen` requests

    Explicitly handle closing `urllib.request.urlopen` requests

    It does close self.close() in its __del__ method[1], but it's better to not just rely on the garbage collector here.

  • Send user's IP address with metrics

    Send user's IP address with metrics

    Used for visualization aggregate geolocation data. The IP is never stored, and it is never sent to 3rd parties.

    We read the IP from the X-Forwarded-For header since in production one's backend service is most likely behind a reverse proxy of some sort. We use the left-most value in case there are multiple IPs in it, since that's most likely not from "our" infra and we don't have to worry about spoofing too much because it's not used for anything security related.

    Some additional reading about getting the real IP address: https://adam-p.ca/blog/2022/03/x-forwarded-for/

    Remove 'OS Independent' trove classifier

    We are not strictly OS independent anymore, since we access Linux specific system functionality if it's available. The package does still work on any system though.

  • Add platform name to sent Apilytics version info

    Add platform name to sent Apilytics version info

    Use sys.platform for this (instead of platform.system()) since it's more consistent with Node.js's process.platform values.

    Atm rebased on top of #14, it should be merged first.

  • Send memory usage information together with metrics on Linux

    Send memory usage information together with metrics on Linux

    We handle only Linux since getting accurate memory usage values on it is most important. Memory cannot be read platform independently in Python and we don't want at this point to include any external dependencies, such as psutil. We might want to add support for other systems when the need arises for some user, it likely won't happen soon since since production web servers are not often ran on non-Linux systems.

    Good to note that MemAvailable in /proc/meminfo is only available on Linux kernel 3.14 and up, but since 3.14 has already reached end of life we can pretty safely ignore support for systems before it.
