api-sandbox 0.1.1

CLI for API sandboxes. Test your APIs in a sandbox env.

sdb

sdb is the CLI for the API sandbox platform from DigitalApi.ai.

It is built for three core jobs:

• import and diff OpenAPI specs
• create sandbox releases and promote aliases
• drive auth, simulation, traces, and generated runtime bundles from one CLI

The public package name is api-sandbox.
The installed binary name is always sdb.

Install

Recommended:

pipx install api-sandbox

Upgrade:

pipx upgrade api-sandbox

If you prefer a virtualenv:

python -m pip install api-sandbox
