Flipt Python

This directory contains the Python source code for the Flipt server-side client.

Documentation

API documentation is available at https://www.flipt.io/docs/reference/overview.

Installation

pip install flipt=={version}

Usage

In your Python code you can import this client and use it as so:

from flipt import FliptClient
from flipt.evaluation import BatchEvaluationRequest, EvaluationRequest

flipt_client = FliptClient()

variant_flag = flipt_client.evaluation.variant(
    EvaluationRequest(
        namespace_key="default",
        flag_key="flagll",
        entity_id="entity",
        context={"fizz": "buzz"},
    )
)

print(variant_flag)

There is a more detailed example in the examples directory.

Setting HTTP Headers

You can set custom HTTP headers for the client by using the headers parameter in the constructor.

flipt_client = FliptClient(headers={"X-Custom-Header": "Custom-Value"})

Flipt V2 Environment Support

Flipt V2 introduces the concept of environments. This client supports evaluation of flags in a specific environment by using the X-Flipt-Environment header.

flipt_client = FliptClient(headers={"X-Flipt-Environment": "production"})

For developers

After adding new code, please don't forget to add unit tests for new features. To format the code, check it with linters and run tests, use the make check command.

Please keep the Python PEP8 in mind while adding new code.
