Everault SDK

Project description

Evervault

Unit Tests Status

Evervault Python SDK

The Evervault Python SDK is a toolkit for encrypting data as it enters your server, and working with Cages. By default, initializing the SDK will result in all outbound HTTPS requests being intercepted and decrypted.

Getting Started

Before starting with the Evervault Python SDK, you will need to create an account and a team.

For full installation support, book time here.

Before contributing, make sure to use commitizen & to read Contributing.md.

Documentation

See the Evervault Python SDK documentation.

Installation

Our Python SDK is distributed via pypi, and can be installed using pip.

pip install evervault

Setup

To make Evervault available for use in your app:

import evervault

# Initialize the client with your team's api key
evervault.init('<YOUR-API-KEY>')

# Encrypt your data and run a cage
result = evervault.encrypt_and_run(<CAGE-NAME>, { 'hello': 'World!' })

Reference

The Evervault Python SDK exposes five functions.

evervault.init()

evervault.init() initializes the SDK with your API key. Configurations for the interception of outbound requests may also be passed in this function.

evervault.init(api_key = str[, intercept = bool, ignore_domains = list, retry = bool, curve = str])
Parameter Type Description
api_key str The API key of your Evervault Team
intercept bool Decides if outbound requests are intercepted (true by default)
ignore_domains list(str) Requests sent to any of the domains in this list will not be intercepted
retry bool Retry failed Cage operations (maximum of 3 retries; false by default)
curve str The elliptic curve used for cryptographic operations. See Elliptic Curve Support to learn more.

evervault.encrypt()

evervault.encrypt() encrypts data for use in your Cages. To encrypt data at the server, simply pass a python primitive type into the evervault.encrypt() function. Store the encrypted data in your database as normal.

evervault.encrypt(data = dict | list | set | str | int | bool)
Parameter Type Description
data dict, list, set, str, int, bool Data to be encrypted

evervault.run()

evervault.run() invokes a Cage with a given payload.

evervault.run(cage_name = str, data = dict[, options = dict])
Parameter Type Description
cageName str Name of the Cage to be run.
data dict Payload for the Cage.
options dict Options for the Cage run.

Cage Run Options

Option Type Default Description
async Boolean False Run your Cage in async mode. Async Cage runs will be queued for processing.
version Integer None Specify the version of your Cage to run. By default, the latest version will be run.
