Pytest plugin accessing NHSDigital's APIM proxies

pytest-nhsd-apim

A pytest extension for NHSDigital's API Mangement suite.

Installation

In your project's virtual environment

poetry add pytest-nhsd-apim

or if using pip directly

python -m pip install pytest-nhsd-apim

Usage

• create a python test file
• write a test using our custom authentication markers!
• enjoy!?

Testing

• run make test to run test examples, located in this repo
• after creating your file you can use the plugin as:

python -m pytest -p pytest_nhsd_apim test_nhsd_apim.py -s --apigee-proxy-name=<your-proxy-name>

Available tools

When installing this library in your project you can access some very handy tools, including our platform authenticators and our apigee api wrapper library.

Autheticators

We present a variety of authenticators including AuthorizationCodeAuthenticator, ClientCredentialsAuthenticator and TokenExchangeAuthenticator. The way of using them is simple. First you create the configuration object which will validate that your coniguration is correct on creation using pydantic, then pass the config to the authenticator and call get_token() on it.

    from pytest_nhsd_apim.identity_service import ClientCredentialsConfig, ClientCredentialsAuthenticator

    config = ClientCredentialsConfig(
        environment={APIGEE_ENVIRONMENT},
        identity_service_base_url={BASE_URL},
        client_id={CLIENT_ID},
        jwt_private_key={PRIVATE_KEY_PEM},
        jwt_kid={KEY_ID},
    )

    authenticator=ClientCredentialsAuthenticator(config=config)
    token=authenticator.get_token()

For a more detailed implementation on the rest of the authenticators please refer to the examples here.

Apigee APIs

We also present a variety off Apigee APIs with the benefit of a fully authenticated Apigee client ready to use. Just remember to export the following variables

# If you want the client to authenticate you...
export APIGEE_NHSD_NONPROD_USERNAME={my_username}
export APIGEE_NHSD_NONPROD_PASSWORD={my_password}
export APIGEE_NHSD_NONPROD_OTP_KEY={my_otp}
# Or alternatively, if you already have a token you can pass it and the client will use it.
export APIGEE_ACCESS_TOKEN={access_token}

#NOTE: in case both sets of credentials are defined, the username and password take presedence, this is so the Apigee client can keep itself authenticated all the time.

from pytest_nhsd_apim.apigee_apis import ApigeeNonProdCredentials, DeveloperAppsAPI

config = ApigeeNonProdCredentials()
client =  ApigeeClient(config=config)
apps = DeveloperAppsAPI(client=client)

print(apps.list_aps('[e-mail]'))

The APIs we offer at the moment are:
