lumigo-core

What it is and what it does

lumigo-core is a foundational library providing utilities for distributed tracing in Python applications. It serves as the core dependency for Lumigo's observability and tracing ecosystem, offering shared helpers and utilities that other Lumigo packages build upon.

The package has no runtime dependencies, making it lightweight to install. It is classified as aging in maintenance status, with the last release 432 days ago, so it may not receive frequent updates or rapid bug fixes. The permissive Apache 2.0 license allows unrestricted use in commercial and open-source projects.

Use it for:

• As a base dependency for Lumigo tracing instrumentation packages that need shared utilities.
• Building custom distributed tracing solutions that integrate with Lumigo's observability platform.
• Instrumenting Python applications to send trace data to Lumigo's backend.

AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying

Provides core utilities and helpers for distributed tracing instrumentation in Python applications, designed as a foundation for Lumigo's tracing ecosystem.

Yes, if you are using or building on Lumigo's tracing ecosystem. The low install friction and permissive license make it safe to add as a dependency. However, the aging maintenance status means you should verify that the utilities it provides match your current needs and be prepared for slower issue resolution if problems arise.

Install

lumigo-core on PyPI

pip install lumigo-core

uv add lumigo-core

poetry add lumigo-core

Installing lumigo-core

Before you install

Low install friction with no runtime dependencies. Maintenance status is aging—last release was 432 days ago—so expect slower response to issues or feature requests.

License in practice

Licensed under Apache License 2.0 (permissive), allowing commercial use, modification, and distribution with minimal restrictions.

Quickstart

pip install lumigo-core

import lumigo_core
# Core utilities available for use in tracing instrumentation

Verify before relying

• What specific tracing capabilities or utilities does this package expose—does it handle span creation, context propagation, or sampling?
• Is this package intended for direct use or primarily as a dependency for other Lumigo packages?
• What Python versions are actually supported, given that requires_python is unspecified?
