Async Support

About Async

Vaultx offers a standard synchronous API by default, but also gives you the option of an async client if you need it. Async is a concurrency model that is far more efficient than multi-threading, and can provide significant performance benefits (check out benchmarks).

If you are working with async, you'll also want to use Vaultx's async client.

Usage

Use async client via context manager or just remember to close it.

async def some_function():
    async with vaultx.AsyncClient(url='https://localhost:8200') as client:
        await client.is_authenticated()

async def some_function():
    client = vaultx.AsyncClient(url='https://localhost:8200')
    await client.is_authenticated()
    await client.close()

Here is another example:

import vaultx


async def very_important_func():
    client = vaultx.AsyncClient(url='http://localhost:8200', token='root')
    await client.auth.approle.create_or_update_approle("testrole")
    create_result = await client.auth.approle.generate_secret_id(
        "testrole", {"foo": "bar"}
    )
    secret_id = create_result["data"]["secret_id"]
    result = await client.auth.approle.read_secret_id("testrole", secret_id)
    await client.auth.approle.destroy_secret_id("testrole", secret_id)

    await client.close()
