Stackdriver Python profiling agent

Python profiling agent for Stackdriver Profiler.

Installation & usage

1. Install the profiler package using PyPI:

   pip3 install google-cloud-profiler

2. Enable the profiler in your application:

   import googlecloudprofiler
   
   def main():
       # Profiler initialization. It starts a daemon thread which continuously
       # collects and uploads profiles. Best done as early as possible.
       try:
           googlecloudprofiler.start(
               service='hello-profiler',
               service_version='1.0.1',
               # verbose is the logging level. 0-error, 1-warning, 2-info,
               # 3-debug. It defaults to 0 (error) if not set.
               verbose=3,
               # project_id must be set if not running on GCP.
               # project_id='my-project-id',
           )
       except (ValueError, NotImplementedError) as exc:
           print(exc)  # Handle errors here
