Flask integration for the Bella Baxter secret management SDK

bella-baxter-flask

Flask extension for the Bella Baxter secrets management platform. Attaches a BaxterClient to your Flask app as app.bella.

Installation

pip install bella-baxter-flask

Quickstart

from flask import Flask
from bella_baxter_flask import BellaBaxter

app = Flask(__name__)
bella = BellaBaxter(app, api_key="bax-...")

@app.route("/health")
def health():
    secrets = app.bella.get_all_secrets()
    return {"database": secrets.secrets.get("DATABASE_URL")}

Application factory pattern

# extensions.py
from bella_baxter_flask import BellaBaxter

bella = BellaBaxter()  # not bound to an app yet

# app.py
from flask import Flask
from extensions import bella

def create_app():
    app = Flask(__name__)
    app.config["BELLA_BAXTER_API_KEY"] = "bax-..."
    bella.init_app(app)
    return app

# routes.py
from extensions import bella

@app.route("/secrets")
def get_secrets():
    resp = bella.get_all_secrets()
    return resp.secrets

Configuration

Pass api_key= directly to the constructor, or set it in app.config:

Config key	Required	Default	Description
BELLA_BAXTER_API_KEY	✅	—	API key (bax-...)
BELLA_BAXTER_URL	❌	https://api.bella-baxter.io	Base URL of the Baxter API

app.config["BELLA_BAXTER_API_KEY"] = os.environ["BELLA_BAXTER_API_KEY"]
app.config["BELLA_BAXTER_URL"] = os.environ.get("BELLA_BAXTER_URL", "https://api.bella-baxter.io")

bella = BellaBaxter()
bella.init_app(app)

Accessing the underlying client

# Full BaxterClient API available via .client
kiota = app.bella.client.client  # Kiota-generated HTTP client

# Or via the extension directly
resp = bella.get_all_secrets()
version = bella.get_secrets_version()

Authentication

Generate an API key via the CLI or the Bella WebApp:

bella api-keys create --env production --name "Flask Production"
