Micro Kit

Micro Kit is a Python Package for dealing with API Response and Logging related tasks.

Helper Classes provided in MicroKit!

  • Custom Response Class
  • Custom File Logger Class

Custom Response Class

Provides the developer with a predefined schema (As Shown Below) of response object along with all the built-in features of the Flask Response Class

  • Sample Response Object Schema:
{
    "message": " ",
    "data": {
            },
    "status code": 
}
  • Header(default)
{
  "content-type": "application/json"
}

Features and Constraints

  • If data is in string format it is considered as a message and data key is left empty.
  • Data can be either a Python Dictionary or a Python List not even in JSON Format
  • All named arguments provided by the flask response class can be passed here.

Installation

Micro Kit requires Python v2.7 to run. Use the package manager pip to install microkit.

$ pip install micro_kit

Usage

from micro_kit import CustomResponse

CustomResponse(data, status_code, message, **kwargs)
  • Default Params
CustomResponse(data, status_code=200, message="OK", **kwargs)

Custom Logger Class

A logger class to maintain a common logging format(User Defined) across the API along with allowing the developer to use it without having to write the logger module.

  • Sample Logging Format:
'[%(asctime)s - %(name)s - %(levelname)s - %(module)s - %(funcName)s() - %(lineno)d] - %(message)s'

Features

  • Maintains a common Logging Format across the API
  • Give the flexibility to the developer to use his own Log Format
  • Save developer's time to write the Logger Module

Installation

Micro Kit requires Python v2.7 to run. Use the package manager pip to install microkit.

$ pip install micro_kit

Usage

from micro_kit import FileLogger

log = FileLogger(api_name, absolute_log_file_path, log_format, logging_level).logger()

As FileLogger is a singleton class therefore the object needs to be created just once and object can be imported as per the need

  • Default Params
FileLogger(api_name, absolute_log_file_path, log_format=None, logging_level=INFO)
  • Note: All the logging levels can be set via FileLogger.LEVEL (FileLogger.DEBUG)
