Contents
Getting started 🐣
To install the client, use pip:
python -m pip install swiftype_app_searchYou can also download the project source and run::
python setup.py installDependencies
Usage
Instantiating a client
>>> from swiftype_app_search import Client
>>> host_identifier = 'host-c5s2mj'
>>> api_key = 'private-mu75psc5egt9ppzuycnc2mc3'
>>> client = Client(host_identifier, api_key)Using with App Search Managed Deploys
The client can be configured to use a managed deploy by adjusting the base_endpoint and use_https parameters. Since managed deploys do not rely on a host_identifier, it can be omitted.
>>> from swiftype_app_search import Client
>>> client = Client(
api_key='private-mu75psc5egt9ppzuycnc2mc3',
base_endpoint='localhost:3002/api/as/v1',
use_https=False
