- The code is using a hard-coded URL for the tool API endpoint. Storing the API endpoint in a config file or env variable would make it easier to switch between test and production endpoints.
- It's good practice to include error handling and logging in production code. E.g. consider using try-except blocks to catch exceptions and log them (and other info useful for debugging) to stout.
- You can use the 'requests' library's built-in status code checking, which raises an exception on error status codes. For example, you could replace if response.status_code == 200: with response.raise_for_status().
- Consider creating a Class for dealing with all logic related to communicating with Toolhub, something like
class ToolhubClient:
def __init__(self, endpoint, user_info):
self.endpoint = endpoint
self.user_info = user_info
self.headers = {'User-Agent': f'Toolhunt API - {user_info}'}
def get_all(self):
"""Get data on all Toolhub tools"""
...
def get(self, tool_name):
"""Get data on a single tool"""
...
def put(self, tool_data):
"""Edit a tool"""
...
