Bearer Agent

Observe, control and receive alerts on your third-party APIs by adding the Bearer agent to your Python application.

Documentation

The documentation is hosted at https://python.docs.bearer.sh/

Installation

The Bearer agent requires Python 3.x >= 3.5.

Install from PyPI:

$ pip install bearer-agent

Then set up the Bearer agent with your Secret Key (available on the Bearer dashboard):

import bearer_agent

bearer_agent.init(secret_key="YOUR_BEARER_SECRET_KEY")

Keeping your data protected

We recommend you sanitize your data before sending it to the Bearer dashboard. We think it's best to setup the sanitization level that best suits your needs. An example using the default values is as follows:

bearer_agent.init(
    strip_sensitive_data=True,
    strip_sensitive_keys=(
        "^authorization$|"
        "^password$|"
        "^secret$|"
        "^passwd$|"
        "^api.?key$|"
        "^access.?token$|"
        "^auth.?token$|"
        "^credentials$|"
        "^mysql_pwd$|"
        "^stripetoken$|"
        "^card.?number.?$|"
        "^secret$|"
        "^client.?id$|"
        "^client.?secret$"
    ),
    strip_sensitive_regex=(
        r"[a-zA-Z0-9]{1}[a-zA-Z0-9.!#$%&’*+=?^_`{|}~-]+@[a-zA-Z0-9-]+(?:\.[a-zA-Z0-9-]+)*|"
        r"(?:\d[ -]*?){13,16}"
    )
)

Development

Running tests

To run a format check (black), the linter (flake8) and tests (pytest):

$ tox

To only run the tests:

$ tox -e py37

Git hooks

There are Git hooks to format the code and run the linter when committing.

Install https://pre-commit.com/ and then run:

$ pre-commit install
