toktak-config-fetcher 1.0.1

Config utility library to fetch configuration from AWS SSM/Secrets Manager and .env files

Toktak Config Fetcher

Description

A Python utility library for loading configuration from AWS Systems Manager (SSM) Parameter Store, AWS Secrets Manager, and .env files. Provides a unified interface with caching and TTL support.

Installation

From PyPI

pip install toktak-config-fetcher

From source

git clone <repository-url>
cd toktak_config_fetcher
pip install .

Usage

from toktak_config_fetcher import preload_config, get_config, get_config_int

# Preload all config from .env and AWS (optional)
preload_config()  # Loads all keys from .env file

# Or preload specific keys
preload_config(["DATABASE_URL", "PORT", "API_KEY"])

# Get string config (fetches from AWS if not cached, falls back to .env)
database_url = get_config("DATABASE_URL", default_value="sqlite:///default.db")

# Get integer config
port = get_config_int("PORT", default_value=8080)

Logic Flow

1. Load all config from .env file.
2. Fetch values from AWS for the keys found in .env file (if not in local mode).
3. The values from AWS are stored in a cache.
4. The cache has a TTL (Time to Live) of 300 seconds. If the TTL expires, values will be fetched from AWS again.
5. The secret key must start with SECRET_ prefix.
6. In local mode (DEPLOY_ENV=local), only .env file values are used.
7. In non-local mode, AWS values take priority over .env file values.

Environment Variables

Required Configuration

1. REGION: The AWS Region. Default value is ap-northeast-2
2. ORG: Organization name. Default value is vodaplay
3. DEPLOY_ENV: The AWS Environment. Possible values: local, dev, stg, prod. Default is local
4. APP_NAMESPACE: The group/namespace of this project. The config utils will combine ORG, DEPLOY_ENV, and APP_NAMESPACE to form the prefix for env key when getting config value from AWS

AWS Configuration

Ensure your AWS credentials are configured via:

• AWS credentials file (~/.aws/credentials)
• Environment variables (AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY)
• IAM role (when running on EC2/ECS/Lambda)

AWS Path Structure

• SSM Parameters: /{ORG}/{DEPLOY_ENV}/{APP_NAMESPACE}/{key} or /{ORG}/{DEPLOY_ENV}/COMMON/{key}
• Secrets: /{ORG}/{DEPLOY_ENV}/{SECRET_key}
