The quickest way to configure Strikes is to set the DREADNODE_API_TOKEN environment variable and let the library handle the rest with dreadnode.configure(). However, there are quite a few additional options you can set as needed.

​
Using configure()

Initialize and set up connections with configure().

dreadnode.configure(
    server="https://platform.dreadnode.io",  # Platform URL
    token="your-api-token",                  # API token for authentication
    local_dir="./runs",                      # Directory for local span storage
    project="my-project",                    # Default project name
    console=True,                            # Enable console logging

    # OpenTelemetry options
    service_name="my-service",               # service name
    service_version="1.0.0",                 # service version
    otel_scope="dreadnode"                   # scope
)

​
Using Environment Variables

Set variables to call .config() more easily.

export DREADNODE_SERVER_URL="https://platform.dreadnode.io"
export DREADNODE_API_TOKEN="your-api-token"
export DREADNODE_LOCAL_DIR="./runs"
export DREADNODE_PROJECT="my-project"
