Description

Fixes #4417

When events are enabled (use_legacy_attributes=False), the streaming response builders passed the drained response generator to emit_choice_events instead of the final last_chunk. Since the generator had already been iterated, it had no candidates attribute, causing an AttributeError on the final iteration.

Changes

  • Pass last_chunk to emit_choice_events instead of the drained response
  • Guard against empty streams where last_chunk stays None
  • Add try/finally around span.end() to ensure the span is exported even on error

Testing

  • Verified the fix resolves the AttributeError when streaming with events enabled

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved reliability when consuming synchronous and asynchronous streaming responses.
    • Ensured tracing information is finalized even if stream iteration or response processing encounters an error.
    • Prevented incomplete final chunks from generating inaccurate events.
    • Preserved response attributes and completion reasons from the most complete available response data.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The Google Generative AI instrumentation now protects synchronous and asynchronous stream handlers from instrumentation errors. It emits choice events from candidate-bearing final chunks and ends spans when iteration or final processing fails.

Changes

Google Generative AI streaming

Layer / File(s) Summary
Synchronous and asynchronous stream finalization
packages/opentelemetry-instrumentation-google-generativeai/.../__init__.py
Both streaming handlers use @dont_throw and try/finally. Choice events use the final chunk only when it contains candidates. Span completion remains guarded during iteration and final instrumentation.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to feb81

Streaming requests now use the final chunk correctly, but error paths can still record failed generations without an error status or exception and may allow instrumentation failures during stream consumption to escape. This creates a concrete observability and runtime risk in both sync and async paths, so merge should wait for the error handling to be fixed or explicitly accepted.

Extract the shared finalization logic into one helper.

Lines 102-124 and lines 147-167 are identical except for the fallback expression at line 120 and line 163. The two copies already differ in style. That divergence shows the duplication is drifting.

Extract a single _finalize_stream(span, last_chunk, text_parts, emit_events, event_logger, llm_model, token_histogram) helper. Call it from both handlers. This also gives @dont_throw a plain function to wrap, which addresses the decorator concern raised on Line 80.

The item_to_yield = item assignment at Line 93 and Line 138 performs no transformation. Yield item directly.

Add direct sync and async streaming edge-case tests.

Test an empty stream with use_legacy_attributes=False and a source that raises after yielding. Assert that each span finishes and exports. Assert that the source exception propagates because @dont_throw does not wrap generator iteration.

Protect streaming instrumentation errors explicitly

dont_throw does not catch exceptions raised while consuming _build_from_streaming_response or _abuild_from_streaming_response. Move finalization into a plain helper wrapped by dont_throw, and guard span.end() separately in both functions.

Record the exception and set the span status on the error path.

The finally block ends the span, but no except clause exists. If the stream raises mid-iteration, the span is exported with an unset status and no exception event. The trace then shows a normal completion for a failed generation. The async handler at lines 168-169 has the same gap.

This repository uses span.record_exception() for GenAI client exceptions.

♻️ Proposed change (apply the same change at lines 168-169)
+    except Exception as e:
+        span.set_status(Status(StatusCode.ERROR, str(e)))
+        span.record_exception(e)
+        raise
     finally:
         span.end()

Add the import if it is absent:

from opentelemetry.trace import Status, StatusCode

Note that GeneratorExit inherits from BaseException, so an early break by the caller does not trigger this handler. The finally block still ends the span in that case.

Based on learnings: "do not flag DSPy/OpenTelemetry instrumentation that handles GenAI client exceptions using span.record_exception()... this repo's intentionally supported exception-handling pattern."
