Pull Request

Summary

Add comprehensive LiteLLM integration to the OpenLayer Python SDK, enabling automatic tracing and monitoring of completions across 100+ LLM providers through LiteLLM's unified interface.

Changes

  • Core Integration: Added litellm_tracer.py with full support for streaming and non-streaming completions
  • Public API: Added trace_litellm() function to openlayer.lib for easy integration
  • Streaming Support: Implemented proper streaming usage data collection using stream_options={"include_usage": True}
  • Provider Detection: Multi-tier provider detection supporting all LiteLLM-compatible services
  • Example Documentation: Added comprehensive Jupyter notebook (litellm_tracing.ipynb) with multi-provider examples
  • Test Coverage: Complete test suite with 12 passing tests covering all functionality
  • Dependency Management: Added LiteLLM as optional dependency with conditional imports
  • Data Parity: Ensured 100% data consistency between streaming and non-streaming modes

Context

LiteLLM is a popular library that provides a unified interface to call 100+ LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, AWS Bedrock, etc.) using the same input/output format. This integration allows users to:

  • Monitor multiple providers through a single integration point
  • Switch between LLM services without changing tracing setup
  • Compare performance across different providers and models
  • Reduce integration complexity by supporting all providers at once

This addresses the need for comprehensive LLM monitoring across diverse model providers in production environments.

Testing

  • Unit tests: All 12 LiteLLM integration tests passing
  • Integration tests: Conditional imports and dependency management tests passing
  • Core functionality: 21 core tracing tests passing (no regressions)
  • Manual testing:
    • ✅ Verified streaming vs non-streaming data parity (100% match)
    • ✅ Tested multi-provider support (OpenAI, Anthropic, Groq)
    • ✅ Validated cost calculation and token counting accuracy
    • ✅ Confirmed proper error handling and graceful fallbacks

Test Results:

tests/test_litellm_integration.py - 12/12 PASSED ✅
tests/test_integration_conditional_imports.py - 3/3 PASSED ✅ 
tests/test_tracing_core.py - 21/21 PASSED ✅

Key Technical Achievements:

  • 🎯 100% data parity between streaming and non-streaming modes
  • Proper streaming implementation using official LiteLLM streaming usage API
  • 🔍 Comprehensive provider detection with multiple fallback strategies
  • 🛡️ Robust error handling maintaining system stability
  • 📊 Complete metadata capture including costs, tokens, latency, and provider info
