It sits on top of opentelemetry-api and opentelemetry-sdk, two core OpenTelemetry libraries, and is designed to work alongside the Azure Monitor OpenTelemetry Distro.\n\nThe extension bridges the gap between OpenTelemetry's standard instrumentation and Azure's Application Insights backend, allowing developers to emit application-specific events that integrate with their broader observability pipeline. It targets Python 3.7 and later.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are already using the Azure Monitor OpenTelemetry Distro and need to send custom events to Application Insights. The low install friction and permissive MIT license support adoption. However, the dormant maintenance status (last commit December 2023, no releases since 0.1.0) means you should verify compatibility with your current OpenTelemetry versions and confirm that Azure is not planning to deprecate this extension in favor of a newer approach."},"id":"azure-monitor-events-extension","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/azure-monitor-events-extension","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/azure-monitor-events-extension.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/azure-monitor-events-extension/"},"maintenance":{"status":"dormant"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2023-09-19","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"azure-monitor-events-extension","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Microsoft Azure Monitor Events Extension for Python"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":273391,"position":8201,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.1.0"}
