# Unleash

Fork of [unleash client](https://gitlab.com/afontaine/unleash_ex/)

`Unleash` is a client for the
[Unleash Toggle Service](https://unleash.github.io/).

The primary use is `Unleash.enabled?/2` or `Unleash.enabled?/3` to check whether
or not the given feature flag is enabled.

```elixir
iex> Unleash.enabled?(:my_feature)
false

iex> Unleash.enabled?(:my_feature, true)
true

iex> context = %{user_id: "ID", custom_field: "Unleash"}

iex> Unleash.enabled?(:my_feature, context)
true

iex> Unleash.enabled?(:my_feature, context, false)
true
```

Context fields are transformed internally when validated against constraints,
e.g. `:user_id` becomes `"userId"`.

## Installation

If [available in Hex](https://hex.pm/docs/publish), the package can be installed
by adding `unleash_ex` to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`:

```elixir
def deps do
[
{:unleash_dk, "~> 1.9"}
]
end
```

## Migrating from unleash

- change the package name in mix.exs
- rename `:uneash` to `:unleash_dk` in config files

## Configuration

There are many configuration options available, and they are listed below with
their defaults. These go into the relevant `config/*.exs` file.

```elixir
config :unleash_dk, Unleash,
url: "", # The URL of the Unleash server to connect to, should include up to http://base.url/api
appname: "", # The app name, used for registration
instance_id: "", # The instance ID, used for metrics tracking
metrics_period: 10 * 60 * 1000, # Send metrics every 10 minutes, in milliseconds
features_period: 15 * 1000, # Poll for new flags every 15 seconds, in milliseconds
strategies: Unleash.Strategies, # Which module to request for toggle strategies
backup_file: nil, # Backup file in the event that contacting the server fails
custom_http_headers: [], # A keyword list of custom headers to send to the server
disable_client: false, # Whether or not to enable the client
disable_metrics: false, # Whether or not to send metrics,
retries: -1, # How many times to retry on failure, -1 disables limit
app_env: :dev, # Which environment we're in
context: [] # initial context, Either list or map. Can be used to set constant values in context. Example: [namespace: System.get_env("NAMESPACE")]
```

`:custom_http_headers` should follow the format prescribed by
`t:Req.headers/0`

`:strategies` should be a module that implements
`c:Unleash.Strategies.strategies/0`. See [Extensibility](#extensibility)
for more information.

## Extensibility

If you need to create your own strategies, you can extend the `Unleash` client
by implementing the callbacks in both `Unleash.Strategy` and
`Unleash.Strategies` as well as passing your new `Strategies` module in as
configuration:

1. Create your new strategy. See `Unleash.Strategy` for details on the correct
API and `Unleash.Strategy.Utils` for helpful utilities.

```elixir
defmodule MyApp.Strategy.Environment do
use Unleash.Strategy

def enabled?(%{"environments" => environments}, _context) do
with {:ok, environment} <- MyApp.Config.get_environment(),
environment = List.to_string(environment) do
{Utils.in_list?(environments, environment, &String.downcase/1),
%{environment: environment, environments: environments}}
end
end
end
```

1. Create a new strategies module. See `Unleash.Strategies` for details on the correct
API.

```elixir
defmodule MyApp.Strategies do
@behaviour Unleash.Strategies

def strategies do
[{"environment", MyApp.Strategy.Environment}] ++ Unleash.Strategies.strateges()
end
end
```

1. Configure your application to use your new strategies list.

```elixir
config :unleash_dk, Unleash, strategies: MyApp.Strategies
```

## Telemetry events

From Unleash 1.9, telemetry events are emitted by the Unleash client
library. You can attach to these events and collect metrics or use the `Logger`,
for example:

```elixir
# An example of checking if Unleash server is reachable during the periodic
# features fetch.
:ok =
:telemetry.attach_many(
:duffel_core_feature_heatbeat_metric,
[
[:unleash, :client, :fetch_features, :stop],
[:unleash, :client, :fetch_features, :exception]
],
fn [:unleash, :client, :fetch_features, action],
_measurements,
metadata,
_config ->
require Logger

http_status = metadata[:http_response_status]

if action == :stop and http_status in [200, 304] do
Logger.info("Fetching features are ok")
else
Logger.info("Error on fetching features!!!")
end
end,
%{}
)
```

The following events are emitted by the Unleash library:
