Python Client for Cloud Trace API
=======================================

|ga| |pypi| |versions| 

The `Cloud Trace API`_ sends application trace data to Cloud Trace
for viewing. Trace data is collected for all App Engine applications by
default. Trace data from other applications can be provided using this API.

Quick Start
-----------

In order to use this library, you first need to go through the following steps:

1. `Select or create a Cloud Platform project.`_
2. `Enable the trace API.`_
3. `Setup Authentication.`_

.. _Select or create a Cloud Platform project.: https://console.cloud.google.com/project
.. _Enable the trace API.:  https://cloud.google.com/trace
.. _Setup Authentication.: https://googleapis.dev/python/google-api-core/latest/auth.html


Installation
~~~~~~~~~~~~

Install this library in a `virtualenv`_ using pip. `virtualenv`_ is a tool to
create isolated Python environments. The basic problem it addresses is one of
dependencies and versions, and indirectly permissions.

With `virtualenv`_, it's possible to install this library without needing
system install permissions, and without clashing with the installed system
dependencies.
