Help With Python, uWSGI and New Relic

I use uWSGI with New Relic. I don't use their wrapper script or anything like that, just the wsgi_application wrapper function. So, I do something like this in my wsgi.py module:

from django.core.wsgi import get_wsgi_application

newrelic_ini = 'path/to/newrelic.ini'

try:
    import newrelic.agent
except:
    application = get_wsgi_application()
else:
    newrelic.agent.initialize(newrelic_ini, 'production')
    @newrelic.agent.wsgi_application()
    def application(environ, start_response):
        _application = get_wsgi_application()
        return _application(environ, start_response)

I do the try/except thing so that I can use the same wsgi.py on dev machines without New Relic.

Thanks, worked like a charm!

I'm using Bottlepy as my web app framework, so I just needed to do the following:

newrelic_ini = '/newrelic.ini'

try:
    import newrelic.agent

    newrelic.agent.initialize(newrelic_ini, 'production')

    application = newrelic.agent.WSGIApplicationWrapper(bottle.default_app())

except:
    print 'newrelic agent not found... continuing anyways'
    application = bottle.default_app()

Note: I had to follow the instructions here (http://www.julianbez.com/blog/2013/07/2 … -pangolin/">http://www.julianbez.com/blog/2013/07/23/update-uwsgi-to-the-latest-version-on-ubuntu-12-04-lts-precise-pangolin/) in order to get the latest version of uWSGI in order for the New Relic Python Agent to work. apt-get only gives you version 1.0.3 which is not supported. I then had to update my .xml config file in the /etc/uwsgi/apps-available directory to replace deprecated config options:

Replaced

 <app mountpoint="/"></app> 

with

<module>wsgi_configuration_module</module>
