prototraffic

This repository contains with the following:

• A basic Flask application with instrumentation setup for generating events using pydoctordroid
• A traffic simulator for the above Flask application
• A sample flask rest service that is being called from the first application

Install dependencies

Run the following command to setup python packages for both flask application and traffic simulator

pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Setup DrDroid Auth token

Add the auth token as an environment variable to allow the DrDroid SDK to publish events to the platform backend. You can request for beta access to DrDroid platform here.

export DRDROID_AUTH_TOKEN=<TOKEN>

Generating custom events for Doctor Droid

// Put it on top of the app.py file
from pydoctordroid import DrDroid
dr = DrDroid()

// Add events like this
dr.publish("Order", "Created", {"ID": "13432", "City": "BLR", "IS_COD": False})

You'll need to setup a few environment variables for the SDK configuration. Here is complete documentation about the SDK pydoctordroid and how to configure it.
