Feat: Add MLflow Analytics provider

[WeichenXu123]

Summary

Adds MLflow as an analytics/tracing provider in Flowise, allowing users to send LLM traces to an MLflow tracking server. Traces are logged as MLflow spans with proper parent-child hierarchy (CHAIN → LLM/TOOL), token usage, and model metadata.

Uses the official https://www.npmjs.com/package/@mlflow/core TypeScript SDK (^0.2.0).

Motivation

Flowise already supports analytics providers like LangSmith, Langfuse, LunaryAI, and Opik, but lacked support for the popular MLflow tracing provider.

Code Review

This pull request integrates MLflow as an analytic provider, adding credential definitions, UI assets, and tracing logic within the AnalyticHandler for chains, LLMs, and tools. The review feedback highlights a critical concurrency issue where the global initialization of MLflow could lead to configuration leaks between requests. Additionally, several bugs were identified where span maps are overwritten rather than merged, potentially causing data loss in complex execution flows, and a recommendation was made to improve type safety for configuration options.

[gemini-code-assist]

The mlflow.init() function configures a global singleton in the MLflow SDK. Since AnalyticHandler instances are created per chatId, concurrent requests with different MLflow configurations (e.g., different tracking URIs or credentials) will overwrite each other's settings. This can lead to traces being sent to the wrong tracking server in a multi-user environment. If the MLflow SDK supports it, consider using a client-based approach to create independent instances instead of global initialization.

Not supported for now.

I added check in code to prevent this case concurrent requests with different MLflow configurations (e.g., different tracking URIs or credentials) will overwrite each other's settings .

Pull request overview

Adds MLflow as a new analytics/tracing provider alongside existing providers (LangSmith/Langfuse/Lunary/LangWatch/Arize/Phoenix/Opik), enabling Flowise to emit chain/LLM/tool traces to an MLflow tracking server via the @mlflow/core SDK.

Changes:

• Add @mlflow/core dependency and lockfile updates for MLflow + transitive OpenTelemetry/Databricks SDK packages.
• Add MLflow provider configuration to the UI analytics settings (including optional experiment ID).
• Implement MLflow span lifecycle wiring in AnalyticHandler (CHAIN/LLM/TOOL spans + flush on shutdown) and add an MLflow credential definition.
