Peak SDK

Overview

This is the official Python SDK for the entire Peak platform, and is currently in the stable state. All users are encouraged to participate in the development process by providing feedbacks, submitting issues and pull requests. 🙏

Setting up a Virtual Environment

To ensure a smooth development experience with Peak SDK, we highly recommend creating a Python virtual environment. A virtual environment helps to isolate the dependencies required by your project and prevents conflicts with other projects or the system’s global Python environment.

Follow these steps to create a virtual environment using Python’s built-in venv module:

Open a terminal.
Navigate to your project’s root directory (where you plan to work with the Peak SDK).
Create a new virtual environment with the following command:
```
python3 -m venv <venv_name>
```
Activate the virtual environment by running:
```
source <venv_name>/bin/activate
```
You will now be working within the virtual environment, and you can install dependencies and run the project without affecting other projects on your system’s Python environment.
When you’re finished working on your project, you can deactivate the virtual environment using the following command:
```
deactivate
```

Installation

You can install Peak SDK via pip from PyPI or from source, the only requirement is Python 3.8+:

Installation from a source branch or tag

pip install "peak-sdk @ git+https://github.com/PeakBI/peak-sdk.git@{branch-name-or-tag}"

Installation from PyPI
```
pip install peak-sdk
```
Or if you want to install a specific version
```
pip install peak-sdk==<version>
```
The Peak SDK ships with the CLI as well. Once CLI is installed, you can enable auto-completion for your shell by running peak --install-completion ${shell-name} command, where shell can be one of [bash|zsh|fish|powershell|pwsh].
Once this has run, we need to add compinit to the shell configuration file (like - .zshrc, .bashrc, etc). To do so, you can the following command
```
echo "compinit" >> ~/.zshrc # replace .zshrc with your shell's configuration file
```

API Key

To start using the SDK and CLI, you’ll need to export API key. If you don’t have one yet, sign up for an account on our platform to obtain your API key. To export it, run the following command in your terminal and replace <api_key> with your actual API key:

export API_KEY=<api_key>
