Bases: object

Easy all-in-one connection handler for using the API client.

Examples

>>> #!/usr/bin/env python
>>> # -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
>>> '''Base example for setting up the API client.'''
>>> import axonius_api_client as axonapi
>>>
>>> # get the URL, API key, API secret, & certwarn from the default ".env" file
>>> client_args = axonapi.get_env_connect()
>>>
>>> # OR override OS env vars with the values from a custom .env file
>>> # client_args = axonapi.get_env_connect(ax_env="/path/to/envfile", override=True)
>>>
>>> # create a client using the url, key, and secret from OS env
>>> client = axonapi.Connect(**client_args)
>>>
