# OpenInference Google GenAI Instrumentation
Python auto-instrumentation library for GenAI SDK. Traces are fully OpenTelemetry compatible and can be sent to any OpenTelemetry collector for viewing, such as [Arize Phoenix](https://github.com/Arize-ai/phoenix).
## Installation
```shell
pip install -Uqqq openinference-instrumentation-google-genai
```
## Quickstart
Install `openinference-instrumentation-google-genai` and `arize-phoenix`.
```shell
pip install -U \
openinference-instrumentation-google-genai \
arize-phoenix \
opentelemetry-sdk \
opentelemetry-exporter-otlp \
"opentelemetry-proto>=1.12.0"
```
Start the `phoenix` server so that it is ready to receive traces.
The `phoenix` server runs entirely on your machine and does not send data over the internet.
```shell
phoenix serve
```
Instrumenting `genai` is simple.
```python
from openinference.instrumentation.google_genai import GoogleGenAIInstrumentor
from opentelemetry.exporter.otlp.proto.grpc.trace_exporter import OTLPSpanExporter
from opentelemetry.sdk.trace import TracerProvider
from opentelemetry.sdk.trace.export import SimpleSpanProcessor
endpoint = "http://127.0.0.1:4317"
tracer_provider = TracerProvider()
tracer_provider.add_span_processor(SimpleSpanProcessor(OTLPSpanExporter(endpoint)))
GoogleGenAIInstrumentor().instrument(tracer_provider=tracer_provider)
```
Now, all calls by `generate_content` are instrumented and can be viewed in the `phoenix` UI.
## Progress
This instrumentation is a work in progress
- [x] parse messages and invocation
- [ ] capture tool definitions
