🚀 Feature: Add instruments support for httpx

All Packages

🔖 Feature description

Today the solution currently supports Instruments.REQUESTS and Instruments.URLLIB3. Is there any plans to extend the instruments to support HTTPX?

🎤 Why is this feature needed ?

Many libraries that require async support have migrated from requests to httpx. Providing httpx support natively would extend the use of this library to a larger user base.

✌️ How do you aim to achieve this?

Ideally, this feature would provide similar ease of configuration as is currently available for Requests.

Definitely @damianoneill! Do you think we should add it always by default?

[damianoneill]

@nirga I think the best approach is to behave like REQUESTS since the userbase will likely use them similarly.

Hi @nirga,
I'm new to open-source and would love to take this up.

Sounds good @whoiskrtk2! Let me know if you have any questions. Should be fairly straightforward

I plan to look into the instrumentation for requests and urllib and try to port that for httpx. It may need some work given that httpx supports asyncio and HTTP 2, but should be a good experience. I'll reach out if I get stuck anywhere. Thanks!
