> You will need your `API URL` and your `API token` in order to connect the Client SDK to you Unleash instance. You can find this information in the “Admin” section Unleash management UI. [Read more](../user_guide/api-token)
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from UnleashClient import UnleashClient
|
|
|
|
client = UnleashClient(
|
|
url="<API url>",
|
|
app_name="my-python-app",
|
|
custom_headers={'Authorization': '<API token>'})
|
|
|
|
client.initialize_client()
|
|
|
|
client.is_enabled("unleash.beta.variants")
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Checking if a feature is enabled {#checking-if-a-feature-is-enabled}
|
|
|
|
Check a feature's status:
|
|
|
|
```Python title="Check whether a feature is enabled"
|
|
client.is_enabled("my_toggle")
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To supply application context, use the second positional argument:
|
|
|
|
```Python title="Check whether a feature is enabled for the given context"
|
|
app_context = {"userId": "test@email.com"}
|
|
client.is_enabled("user_id_toggle", app_context)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Fallback function and default values
|
|
|
|
You can specify a fallback function for cases where the client doesn't recognize the toggle by using the `fallback_function` keyword argument:
|
|
|
|
```Python title="Check a feature status, using a fallback if the feature is unrecognized."
|
|
def custom_fallback(feature_name: str, context: dict) -> bool:
|
|
return True
|
|
|
|
client.is_enabled("my_toggle", fallback_function=custom_fallback)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can also use the `fallback_function` argument to replace the obsolete `default_value` keyword argument by using a lambda that ignores its inputs. Whatever the lambda returns will be used as the default value.
|
|
|
|
```Python title="Use fallback_function to provide a default value"
|
|
client.is_enabled("my_toggle", fallback_function=lambda feature_name, context: True)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The fallback function **must** accept the feature name and context as positional arguments in that order.
|
|
|
|
The client will evaluate the fallback function only if an exception occurs when calling the `is_enabled()` method. This happens when the client can't find the feature flag. The client _may_ also throw other, general exceptions.
|
|
|
|
## Getting a variant {#getting-a-variant}
|
|
|
|
Checking for a variant:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
context = {'userId': '2'} # Context must have userId, sessionId, or remoteAddr. If none are present, distribution will be random.
|
|
|
|
variant = client.get_variant("my_variant_toggle", context)
|
|
|
|
print(variant)
|
|
> {
|
|
> "name": "variant1",
|
|
> "payload": {
|
|
> "type": "string",
|
|
> "value": "val1"
|
|
> },
|
|
> "enabled": True
|
|
> }
|
|
```
