Configuring the Client

The SolveBio python client can be configured by setting system environment variables. Supported environment variables are:

SOLVEBIO_API_HOST

• The URL of the target API backend. If not specified the value from the local credentials file will be used.

SOLVEBIO_ACCESS_TOKEN

• The OAuth2 access token for authenticating with the API.

SOLVEBIO_API_KEY

• The API Key to use for authenticating with the API.

The lookup order for credentials is:

1. Access Token
2. API Key
3. Local Credentials file

SOLVEBIO_LOGLEVEL

• The log level at which to log messages. If not specified the default log level will be WARN.

SOLVEBIO_LOGFILE

• The file in which to write log messages. If the file does not exist it will be created. If not specified '~/.solvebio/solvebio.log' will be used by default.

SOLVEBIO_RETRY_ALL

• Flag for enabling aggressive retries for failed requests to the API. When truthy, the client will attempt to retry a failed request regardless of the type of operation. This includes idempotent and nonidempotent operations: "HEAD", "GET", "PUT", "POST", "PATCH", "DELETE", "OPTIONS", "TRACE" If this value is not set it will default to false and retries will only be enabled for idempotent operations.
