==================
Configure profiler
==================
Overview
========
`osprofiler`_, the Cross-project profiling library for OpenStack, is integrated in Vitrage to generate 1 trace per
request, that goes through all involved services.
.. _osprofiler: https://docs.openstack.org/osprofiler/latest/
Configuration
=============
Profiling must be enabled **explicitly** in Vitrage configuration file::
[profiler]
enabled = true
hmac_keys = SECRET_KEY
#connection_string = messaging://
- ``hmac_key`` will be used in client to sign a request with profiling enabled
- ``connection_string`` specify the storage driver to collect tracing data, default to ceilometer via messaging
Please refer to `osprofiler user manual`_ for details
.. _osprofiler user manual: https://docs.openstack.org/osprofiler/latest/user/index.html
Usage
=====
Use ``--profile`` option in Vitrage CLI to send a request with profiling enabled, e.g.::
vitrage --profile SECRET_KEY topology show
The key must match the `hmac_keys` configured in the server.
The uuid of trace will be prepended to the result::
To display trace use the command:
osprofiler trace show --html 8c2a594b-bb26-4a00-a408-fd378ae3566b
{
"directed": true,
"graph": {},
"nodes": [],
"links": [],
"multigraph": true
}%
Follow the help message above to show the trace file with ``osprofiler`` client::
osprofiler trace show --html 8c2a594b-bb26-4a00-a408-fd378ae3566b
