Featureswitches

A Python package for interacting with FeatureSwitches.com. This library is under active development and is likely to change frequently. Bug reports and pull requests are welcome.

Installation

pip install featureswitches

Usage

fs = FeatureSwitches('customer_api_key', 'environment_api_key')

# Ensure that the API credentials are valid
result = fs.authenticate()  # result will be true/false to indicate success

# Add a user
result = fs.add_user('user_identifier', 'optional_customer_identifier', 'optional_name', 'optional_email')

# Check if a feature is enabled
result = fs.is_enabled('feature_key', 'optional_user_identifier', default_return_value(true/false, default=false))

if result:
    # Feature enabled, do something
else:
    # Feature disabled, do something else

Configuration Options

A few options are available to be tweaked if you so choose. The library makes use of a local cache to minimize requests back to the FeatureSwitches server. Additionally, a check it performed at an interval to automatically re-sync feature state when changes are made in the dashboard.

• cache_timeout=SECONDS # Defaults to 300 seconds
• check_interval=SECONDS # Defaults to 10 seconds
