PyMongo

The logfire.instrument_pymongo() method will create a span for every operation performed using your PyMongo clients.

Also works with Motor... 🚗

This integration also works with motor, the asynchronous driver for MongoDB.

Installation

Install logfire with the pymongo extra:

pipuvpoetry

pip install 'logfire[pymongo]'

uv add 'logfire[pymongo]'

poetry add 'logfire[pymongo]'

Usage

The following example demonstrates how to use Logfire with PyMongo.

Run Mongo on Docker (Optional)

If you already have a MongoDB instance running, you can skip this step. Otherwise, you can start MongoDB using Docker with the following command:

docker run --name mongo -p 27017:27017 -d mongo:latest

Run the Python script

The following script connects to a MongoDB database, inserts a document, and queries it:

SyncAsync

import logfire
from pymongo import MongoClient

logfire.configure()
logfire.instrument_pymongo()

client = MongoClient()
db = client["database"]
collection = db["collection"]
collection.insert_one({"name": "MongoDB"})
collection.find_one()

import asyncio
import logfire
from motor.motor_asyncio import AsyncIOMotorClient

logfire.configure()
logfire.instrument_pymongo()

async def main():
    client = AsyncIOMotorClient()
    db = client["database"]
    collection = db["collection"]
    await collection.insert_one({"name": "MongoDB"})
    await collection.find_one()

asyncio.run(main())

Info

You can pass capture_statement=True to logfire.instrument_pymongo() to capture the queries.

By default, it is set to False to avoid capturing sensitive information.

The keyword arguments of logfire.instrument_pymongo() are passed to the PymongoInstrumentor().instrument() method of the OpenTelemetry pymongo Instrumentation package, read more about it here.

API Reference

instrument_pymongo

instrument_pymongo(
    capture_statement: bool = False,
    request_hook: (
        Callable[[Span, CommandStartedEvent], None] | None
    ) = None,
    response_hook: (
        Callable[[Span, CommandSucceededEvent], None] | None
    ) = None,
    failed_hook: (
        Callable[[Span, CommandFailedEvent], None] | None
    ) = None,
    **kwargs: Any,
) -> None

Instrument the pymongo module so that spans are automatically created for each operation.

Uses the OpenTelemetry pymongo Instrumentation library, specifically PymongoInstrumentor().instrument(), to which it passes **kwargs.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
capture_statement	bool	Set to True to capture the statement in the span attributes.	False
request_hook	Callable[[Span, CommandStartedEvent], None] | None	A function called when a command is sent to the server.	None
response_hook	Callable[[Span, CommandSucceededEvent], None] | None	A function that is called when a command is successfully completed.	None
failed_hook	Callable[[Span, CommandFailedEvent], None] | None	A function that is called when a command fails.	None
**kwargs	Any	Additional keyword arguments to pass to the OpenTelemetry instrument methods for future compatibility.	{}
