Configuration

This page explains the various configuration options available for the Rhesis SDK.

API Key

The Rhesis SDK requires an API key to authenticate with the Rhesis API. You can obtain an API key by signing up at Rhesis App.

There are two ways to configure your API key:

Using Environment Variables

Set the following environment variables:

export RHESIS_API_KEY="your-api-key"
export RHESIS_BASE_URL="https://api.rhesis.ai"  # optional, defaults to this value

Direct Configuration

Configure directly in your Python code:

import rhesis

rhesis.api_key = "your-api-key"
rhesis.base_url = "https://api.rhesis.ai"  # optional, defaults to this value

Advanced Configuration

Timeout Settings

You can configure request timeouts:

rhesis.timeout = 30  # Set timeout to 30 seconds

Retry Settings

Configure automatic retries for failed API requests:

rhesis.max_retries = 3  # Number of retry attempts
rhesis.retry_delay = 1  # Delay between retries in seconds

Proxy Configuration

If you need to use a proxy server:

rhesis.proxy = {
    "http": "http://user:pass@10.10.1.10:3128/",
    "https": "http://user:pass@10.10.1.10:1080/"
}

Logging

The Rhesis SDK uses Python’s standard logging module. You can configure it like this:

import logging

# Configure logging
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.INFO)

# Or for more detailed logging
logging.getLogger("rhesis").setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
