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)

  @all_attributes_private
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)

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.

Returns:

  • (Object)

# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 194

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)

# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 185

def capacity
  @capacity
end

#compress_eventsBoolean (readonly)

Should the event payload sent to LaunchDarkly use gzip compression. By default this is false to prevent backward breaking compatibility issues with older versions of the relay proxy.

Customers not using the relay proxy are strongly encouraged to enable this feature to reduce egress bandwidth cost.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)


267
268
269
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 267

def compress_events

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.

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".



225
226
227
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 225

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)

162
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 160

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.

209
210
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 208

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)


175
176
177
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 175

def logger
  @logger
end

#omit_anonymous_contextsBoolean (readonly)

Sets whether anonymous contexts should be omitted from index and identify events.

The default value is false. Anonymous contexts will be included in index and identify events.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

409
410
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 408

def omit_anonymous_contexts
  @omit_anonymous_contexts
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.

341
342
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 340

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)


167
168
169
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 167

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.



249
250
251
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 249

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)


201
202
203
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 201

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)


256
257
258
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 256

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:

# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 112

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)


370
371
372
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 370

def wrapper_name
  @wrapper_name
end

#wrapper_versionString (readonly)

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)


351
352
353
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 351

def diagnostic_opt_out?
  @diagnostic_opt_out
end

#offline?Boolean

Whether the client should be initialized in offline mode. In offline mode, default values are returned for all flags and no remote network requests are made.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)


151
152
153
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 151

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)


127
128
129
# File 'lib/ldclient-rb/config.rb', line 127

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)
