It supports three deployment modes: as a Lambda Layer (zero-code instrumentation), via the Serverless Framework plugin, or through manual decorator-based wrapping of your handler function.\n\nThe tracer collects distributed trace context, supports W3C TraceContext headers for cross-service tracing, and includes features like Step Functions tracking, secret masking via regex patterns, and domain scrubbing to prevent sensitive data leakage. Configuration is primarily environment-variable driven, making it suitable for infrastructure-as-code deployments. It depends on lumigo-core for its core functionality.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you run Python Lambda functions on AWS and need observability. The tracer is actively maintained, has low install friction, carries a permissive license, and integrates cleanly via decorator or Lambda Layer. Requires a Lumigo account and API token; evaluate whether the platform's pricing and feature set align with your observability needs before committing."},"id":"lumigo-tracer","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/lumigo-tracer","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/lumigo-tracer.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/lumigo-tracer/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2025-06-26","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"lumigo-tracer","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Lumigo Tracer for Python v3.6 / 3.7 / 3.8 / 3.9 / 3.10 runtimes"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":104114,"position":12767,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.1.257"}
