Supprot for django framework

[lunika]

Hi,

The django frameowrk seems not supported. As mentioned in the readme, I open this issue to see if it's possible to add an SDK for it.

Thanks.

Absolutely, I'll prioritize this one.

We're trying to use OpenTelemetry for all backend integrations, we'll confirm that there is a Django library for it and that it works nicely with Traceway.

Just like in court, if one does not existing we'll build it and maintain it.

I'm hoping to have an update for you in 3-4h.

Confirmed, there's an official, actively maintained OTel package for Django: opentelemetry-instrumentation-django (Apache-2.0, in
open-telemetry/opentelemetry-python-contrib, ~35M downloads/month, last commit today). No need to build/maintain a custom one.

We will check if it covers all use cases, and if it does, we'll add Django as a supported framework in the dashboard and ship a Quick Start in the docs using this package + OTLP/HTTP export. PR incoming shortly.

Fixed in version 1.7.27 and above

Distributed traces should show up properly, non root top level views (enpoints, tasks, ai traces) should properly show their respective spans and link to other top level traces

@jstojiljkovic please confirm it looks good on your end and close the issu

@jstojiljkovic also please update the docs and the readme with Django support and the explanation how to set it up

[jstojiljkovic]

I will confirm that everything is good and create a PR regarding Django support ASAP.

Closing this issue once the PR is merged.
