Base class for metric functionality (namespace, metric, dimension, serialization)

MetricManager creates metrics asynchronously thanks to CloudWatch Embedded Metric Format (EMF). CloudWatch EMF can create up to 100 metrics per EMF object and metrics, dimensions, and namespace created via MetricManager will adhere to the schema, will be serialized and validated against EMF Schema.

Use Metrics or single_metric() to create EMF metrics.

Decorator to serialize and publish metrics at the end of a function execution.

Be aware that the log_metrics *does call the decorated function (e.g. lambda_handler).

Example

Lambda function using tracer and metrics decorators

from aws_lambda_powertools import Metrics, Tracer

metrics = Metrics(service="payment")
tracer = Tracer(service="payment")

@tracer.capture_lambda_handler
@metrics.log_metrics
def handler(event, context):
        ...

Parameters

lambda_handler : Callable[[Any, Any], Any], optional
lambda function handler, by default None
capture_cold_start_metric : bool, optional
captures cold start metric, by default False
raise_on_empty_metrics : bool, optional
raise exception if no metrics are emitted, by default False
default_dimensions : Dict[str, str], optional
metric dimensions as key=value that will always be present

Raises

SingleMetric creates an EMF object with a single metric.

EMF specification doesn't allow metrics with different dimensions. SingleMetric overrides MetricManager's add_metric method to do just that.

Use single_metric() when you need to create metrics with different dimensions, otherwise Metrics is a more cost effective option

Environment Variables

POWERTOOLS_METRICS_NAMESPACE : str metric namespace

Example

Creates cold start metric with function_version as dimension

import json
from aws_lambda_powertools.metrics import single_metric, MetricUnit
metric = single_metric(namespace="ServerlessAirline")

metric.add_metric(name="ColdStart", unit=MetricUnit.Count, value=1)
metric.add_dimension(name="function_version", value=47)

print(json.dumps(metric.serialize_metric_set(), indent=4))
