APItoolkit is an end-to-end API and web services management toolkit for engineers and customer support teams. To integrate your Django (Python) application with APItoolkit, you need to use this SDK to monitor incoming traffic, aggregate the requests, and then deliver them to the APItoolkit's servers.
Kindly run the command below to install the SDK:
pip install apitoolkit-djangoFirst, add the APITOOLKIT_KEY environment variable to your .env file, like so:
APITOOLKIT_KEY={ENTER_YOUR_API_KEY_HERE}Next, add the APITOOLKIT_KEY to your Django settings (settings.py) file, like so:
from pathlib import Path
from dotenv import load_dotenv
import os
load_dotenv()
# Build paths inside the project like this: BASE_DIR / 'subdir'.
BASE_DIR = Path(__file__).resolve().parent.parent
APITOOLKIT_KEY = os.getenv('APITOOLKIT_KEY')
APITOOLKIT_DEBUG = False
APITOOLKIT_TAGS= ["environment: production", "region: us-east-1"]
APITOOLKIT_SERVICE_VERSION= "v2.0"
# Application definition
INSTALLED_APPS = [
'django.contrib.admin',
'django.contrib.auth',
'django.contrib.sessions',
]
...Then add the apitoolkit_django.APIToolkit middleware into the settings.py middleware list, like so:
MIDDLEWARE = [
'apitoolkit_django.APIToolkit', # Initialize APItoolkit
'django.middleware.security.SecurityMiddleware',
'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware',
...,
]Note
The {ENTER_YOUR_API_KEY_HERE} demo string should be replaced with the API key generated from the APItoolkit dashboard.
