A lightweight debugging & profiling toolkit
for production 🐍 Python microservices
🦅 Hawk gives you more control over how your Python microservices run in production with little overhead by bringing a set of internal API to help you to profile and debug your services.
Note
🚧 This project is under active development and not ready for production use yet. 🚧
Hawk is inspired by Go's net/http/pprof & expvars packages and
OpenTelemetry Collector's ZPages which are in turn stemmed from Google's internal practices around
debugging production services.
Important
Be sure to start this project and watch it if you find it helpful ⭐️
- ⏱️ Memory Profiling via the
tracemallocstdlib - ⏱️ CPU Profiling (incl. Asyncio services) via
pyinstrument&cProfile(soon) - 🙋♀️ Activate profiling on demand in real environments
- 🎨 Render your profiles right from your browser
- ⬇️ Download your profiles for the further investigation
- 🔭 Expose internal state of your service via debug vars (🚧soon)
- 🔧 Create custom debug pages (a.k.a.
ZPages) in a simplified way - 🔧 Controlled via environment variables, no codebase modifications needed to enable/disable functionality completely
- 🔓 No elevated permissions needed (
CAP_PTRACE, etc.) - 🔭 OpenTelemetry-aware (🚧soon)
