It addresses the problem that logs alone don't capture the live state of a system\u2014what threads are active, which config parameters are in effect, or what exceptions are currently being handled. The package provides a \"guru meditation report\" mechanism that collects this state into models (stack traces, thread info, exceptions, config, package versions) and serializes them to JSON, XML, or plain text via Jinja templates.\n\nThe framework is built on three layers: Models that define structured data for system state, Generators that populate those models with current runtime information, and Views that serialize the models to output formats. OpenStack projects can register custom generators to add project-specific diagnostic data. It depends on oslo.serialization, oslo.config, oslo.i18n, oslo.utils, Jinja2, psutil, and pbr\u2014all mature OpenStack ecosystem libraries.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are developing or operating an OpenStack service and need structured diagnostic reporting. The package is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, and integrates cleanly with the oslo ecosystem. Not recommended for non-OpenStack projects unless you need a general-purpose runtime state capture framework and are willing to work with its OpenStack-centric design."},"id":"oslo-reports","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/oslo-reports","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/oslo-reports.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/oslo-reports/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-07-10","license_spdx":"Apache-2.0","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"oslo.reports","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"oslo.reports library"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":165160,"position":10528,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"3.9.0"}
