Stackify API for Python
=======================

## Installation
stackify-python can be installed through pip:
```bash
$ pip install -U stackify-api-python
```

**stackify-python-api** can be installed through pip:
```bash
$ pip install stackify-api-python
```

## Configuration

#### Standard API
```python
import stackify
logger = stackify.getLogger(application="Python Application", environment="Production", api_key="***")
logger.warning('Something happened')
```

#### Python Logging Integration

```python
import logging
import stackify
logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
stackify_handler = stackify.StackifyHandler(application="Python Application", environment="Production", api_key="***")
logger.addHandler(stackify_handler)
logger.warning('Something happened')
```

#### Environment Settings

```bash
export STACKIFY_APPLICATION=Python Application
export STACKIFY_ENVIRONMENT=Production
export STACKIFY_API_KEY=******
```

## Usage

**stackify-python-api** handles uploads in batches of 100 messages at a time on another thread.
When your program exits, it will shut the thread down and upload the remaining messages.

Stackify can store extra data along with your log message:
```python
try:
user_string = raw_input("Enter a number: ")
print("You entered", int(user_string))
except ValueError:
logger.exception('Bad input', extra={'user entered': user_string})
```

You can also name your logger instead of using the automatically generated one:
```python
import stackify
logger = stackify.getLogger('mymodule.myfile')
```

## Internal Logger

This library has an internal logger it uses for debugging and messaging.
For example, if you want to enable debug messages:
```python
import logging
logger = logging.getLogger('stackify')
logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
logger.addHandler(logging.FileHandler('stackify.log')) # or any handler you want
```

By default, it will enable the default logging settings via `logging.basicConfig()`
and print `WARNING` level messages and above. If you wish to set everything up yourself,
just pass `basic_config=False` in `getLogger`:
```python
import stackify

logger = stackify.getLogger(basic_config=False)
```

## Django Logging Integration

You can also use your existing django logging and just append stackify logging handler

```python
LOGGING = {
'version': 1,
'disable_existing_loggers': False,
'handlers': {
'file': {
'level': 'DEBUG',
'class': 'logging.FileHandler',
'filename': 'debug.log',
},
'stackify': {
'level': 'DEBUG',
'class': 'stackify.StackifyHandler',
'application': 'MyApp',
'environment': 'Dev',
'api_key': '******',
}
},
'loggers': {
'django': {
'handlers': ['file', 'stackify'],
'level': 'DEBUG',
'propagate': True,
},
},
}
```

Usage
```python
import logging

logger = logging.getLogger('django')

logger.warning('Something happened')
```

## **Real User Monitoring (RUM)**

Real user monitoring injects a script tag containing the [RUM JS](https://stackify.com/retrace-real-user-monitoring/) that is responsible for capturing information about the http requests on the browser. This approach is manual and needs to be configured.

### RUM - Setup

```python
# Configuration - Standard API
logger = stackify.getLogger(..., rum_key="YourRumKey")
# or Configuration - Python Logging Integration
stackify.StackifyHandler(..., rum_key="YourRumKey")

# Use this to apply on views
import stackify.rum

stackify.rum.insert_rum_script()
```
