Is Python 3.10 supported? #455

Closed alexlang74 closed 11 months ago

alexlang74 commented 11 months ago

Problem Description

The github documentation says "Python > 2.7 is supported", but https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/instana-observability/current?topic=package-python-supported-components-versions#python-runtimes limits this to Python < 3.10. Which one is correct? If Python 3.10 is not supported yet - do you have a timeline for that? Thanks!

Hi @alexlang74,

Where have you read on github, that "Python > 2.7 is supported" ? I had the codebase of this repo searched with multiple tools, and none of them could find anything like that on the current mater branch head. If there is such a statement, then let us know, because that is definitely incorrect, currently the minimum needed runtime verion, for the supported track is 3.7.

The documentation here is correct. Commercial support is only for < 3.10 at the moment. You can write an AHA ticket about it, or contact PM, if you want this to be prioritized.

BTW, if you are not using asyncio or tornado, then your experience on 3.10 should be comparable to the 3.9.

Argh, I mistyped! of course 3.7, sorry! We're using FastAPI on PY 3.10, and want to use instana goodness...

And would you run it on k8s, with the webhook? Which server would you use with FastAPI? uvicorn?

A quick smoke test with the currently listed fastapi example unicorn on K8S with the image: python:3.10, didn't show any blockers. fastapi is predominantly covered by the ASGI middleware, and the fastapi specific code is minimal in the tracer.
