Instance Attribute Details

#all_attributes_privateBoolean (readonly)

True if all context attributes (other than the key) should be considered private. This means that the attribute values will not be sent to LaunchDarkly in analytics events and will not appear on the LaunchDarkly dashboard.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

end

#applicationHash (readonly)

An object that allows configuration of application metadata.

Application metadata may be used in LaunchDarkly analytics or other product features, but does not affect feature flag evaluations.

If you want to set non-default values for any of these fields, provide the appropriately configured hash to the LaunchDarkly::Config object.

Examples:

Configuring application information

opts[:application] = {
  id: "MY APPLICATION ID",
  version: "MY APPLICATION VERSION"
}
config = LDConfig.new(opts)

Returns:

  • (Hash)

# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 293

def big_segments
  @big_segments
end

#cache_storeObject (readonly)

A store for HTTP caching (used only in polling mode). This must support the semantics used by the faraday-http-cache gem, although the SDK no longer uses Faraday. Defaults to the Rails cache in a Rails environment, or a thread-safe in-memory store otherwise.

# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 191

def cache_store
  @cache_store
end

#capacityInteger (readonly)

The capacity of the events buffer. The client buffers up to this many events in memory before flushing. If the capacity is exceeded before the buffer is flushed, events will be discarded. Increasing the capacity means that events are less likely to be discarded, at the cost of consuming more memory.

Returns:

  • (Integer)


182
183
184
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 182

def capacity
  @capacity

end

#data_sourceLaunchDarkly::Interfaces::DataSource|lambda (readonly)

An object that is responsible for receiving feature flag data from LaunchDarkly. By default, the client uses its standard polling or streaming implementation; this is customizable for testing purposes.

This may be set to either an object that conforms to Interfaces::DataSource, or a lambda (or Proc) that takes two parameters-- SDK key and LaunchDarkly::Config-- and returns such an object.

284
285
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 283

def data_source
  @data_source
end

#diagnostic_recording_intervalFloat (readonly)

118
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 116

def events_uri
  @events_uri
end

#feature_storeLaunchDarkly::Interfaces::FeatureStore (readonly)

A store for feature flags and related data. The client uses it to store all data received from LaunchDarkly, and uses the last stored data when evaluating flags. Defaults to InMemoryFeatureStore; for other implementations, see Integrations.

For more information, see "Persistent data stores".



222
223
224
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 222

def feature_store
  @feature_store
end

#flush_intervalFloat (readonly)

The number of seconds between flushes of the event buffer. Decreasing the flush interval means that the event buffer is less likely to reach capacity.

Returns:

  • (Float)


157
158
159
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 157

def flush_interval
  @flush_interval
end

#hooksObject (readonly)

Initial set of hooks for the client.

Hooks provide entrypoints which allow for observation of SDK functions.

LaunchDarkly provides integration packages, and most applications will not need to implement their own hooks. Refer to the launchdarkly-server-sdk-otel gem for instrumentation.



386
387
388
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 386

def hooks

206
207
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 205

def initial_reconnect_delay
  @initial_reconnect_delay
end

#loggerLogger (readonly)

The configured logger for the LaunchDarkly client. The client library uses the log to print warning and error messages. If not specified, this defaults to the Rails logger in a Rails environment, or stdout otherwise.

Returns:

  • (Logger)


172
173
174
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 172

def logger
  @logger
end

#payload_filter_keyObject (readonly)

LaunchDarkly Server SDKs historically downloaded all flag configuration and segments for a particular environment during initialization.

For some customers, this is an unacceptably large amount of data, and has contributed to performance issues within their products.

Filtered environments aim to solve this problem. By allowing customers to specify subsets of an environment's flags using a filter key, SDKs will initialize faster and use less memory.

This payload filter key only applies to the default streaming and polling data sources. It will not affect TestData or FileData data sources, nor will it be applied to any data source provided through the #data_source config property.



326
327
328
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 326

def payload_filter_key
  @payload_filter_key
end

#poll_intervalFloat (readonly)

The number of seconds to wait before polling for feature flag updates. This option has no effect unless streaming is disabled.

Returns:

  • (Float)


164
165
166
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 164

def poll_interval
  @poll_interval
end

#private_attributesArray<String> (readonly)

A list of context attribute names that should always be considered private. This means that the attribute values will not be sent to LaunchDarkly in analytics events and will not appear on the LaunchDarkly dashboard.

You can also specify the same behavior for an individual flag evaluation by providing the context object with a list of private attributes.



246
247
248
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 246

def private_attributes
  @private_attributes
end

#read_timeoutFloat (readonly)

The read timeout for network connections in seconds. This does not apply to the streaming connection, which uses a longer timeout since the server does not send data constantly.

Returns:

  • (Float)


198
199
200
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 198

def read_timeout
  @read_timeout
end

#send_eventsBoolean (readonly)

Whether to send events back to LaunchDarkly. This differs from #offline? in that it affects only the sending of client-side events, not streaming or polling for events from the server.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)


253
254
255
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 253

def send_events
  @send_events
end

#socket_factory#open (readonly)

The factory used to construct sockets for HTTP operations. The factory must provide the method open(uri, timeout). The open method must return a connected stream that implements the IO class, such as a TCPSocket.

Defaults to nil.

Returns:

  • (#open)


375
376
377
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 375

# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 109

def stream_uri
  @stream_uri
end

#wrapper_nameString (readonly)

For use by wrapper libraries to set an identifying name for the wrapper being used.

This will be sent in User-Agent headers during requests to the LaunchDarkly servers to allow recording metrics on the usage of these wrapper libraries.

Returns:

  • (String)


356
357
358
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 356

def wrapper_name
  @wrapper_name
end

#wrapper_versionString (readonly)

For use by wrapper libraries to report the version of the library in use.

If wrapper_name is not set, this field will be ignored. Otherwise the version string will be included in the User-Agent headers along with the wrapper_name during requests to the LaunchDarkly servers.

Returns:

  • (String)

Instance Method Details

#diagnostic_opt_out?Boolean

Set to true to opt out of sending diagnostics data.

Unless diagnostic_opt_out is set to true, the client will send some diagnostics data to the LaunchDarkly servers in order to assist in the development of future SDK improvements. These diagnostics consist of an initial payload containing some details of the SDK in use, the SDK's configuration, and the platform the SDK is being run on, as well as periodic information on irregular occurrences such as dropped events.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)


337
338

Returns:

  • (Boolean)


148
149
150
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 148

def offline?
  @offline
end

#stream?Boolean

Whether streaming mode should be enabled. Streaming mode asynchronously updates feature flags in real-time using server-sent events. Streaming is enabled by default, and should only be disabled on the advice of LaunchDarkly support.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)


124
125
126
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 124

def stream?
  @stream
end

#use_ldd?Boolean

Whether to use the LaunchDarkly relay proxy in daemon mode. In this mode, the client does not use polling or streaming to get feature flag updates from the server, but instead reads them from the feature store, which is assumed to be a database that is populated by a LaunchDarkly relay proxy. For more information, see "The relay proxy" and "Using a persistent data stores".

All other properties related to streaming or polling are ignored if this option is set to true.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)
