function _get_filecloud_integration

Maturity: 42

Factory function that creates and returns a configured FileCloudIntegration instance using credentials from application settings.

File:

Lines:

Complexity:
simple

Purpose

This function serves as a centralized factory method for obtaining FileCloudIntegration instances throughout the application. It encapsulates the configuration logic by retrieving FileCloud server credentials (URL, username, password) from the settings module and instantiating the FileCloudIntegration class with these parameters. This pattern ensures consistent configuration and simplifies dependency injection for FileCloud operations.

Source Code

def _get_filecloud_integration() -> FileCloudIntegration:
    """Get a configured FileCloud integration instance"""
    server_url = settings.FILECLOUD_SERVER_URL
    username = settings.FILECLOUD_USERNAME
    password = settings.FILECLOUD_PASSWORD
    
    return FileCloudIntegration(server_url, username, password)

Return Value

Type: FileCloudIntegration

Returns a fully configured FileCloudIntegration instance initialized with server URL, username, and password from application settings. This object can be used to perform FileCloud operations such as file uploads, downloads, and metadata retrieval.

Dependencies

  • CDocs.utils.filecloud_integration
  • CDocs.config

Required Imports

from CDocs.utils.filecloud_integration import FileCloudIntegration
from CDocs.config import settings

Usage Example

# Ensure settings are configured
# In your settings.py or config:
# FILECLOUD_SERVER_URL = 'https://filecloud.example.com'
# FILECLOUD_USERNAME = 'admin'
# FILECLOUD_PASSWORD = 'secure_password'

from CDocs.utils.filecloud_integration import FileCloudIntegration
from CDocs.config import settings

def _get_filecloud_integration() -> FileCloudIntegration:
    server_url = settings.FILECLOUD_SERVER_URL
    username = settings.FILECLOUD_USERNAME
    password = settings.FILECLOUD_PASSWORD
    return FileCloudIntegration(server_url, username, password)

# Usage
filecloud = _get_filecloud_integration()
# Now use filecloud instance for operations like:
# filecloud.upload_file(...)
# filecloud.download_file(...)
# filecloud.get_metadata(...)

Best Practices

  • Ensure all three required settings (FILECLOUD_SERVER_URL, FILECLOUD_USERNAME, FILECLOUD_PASSWORD) are properly configured before calling this function
  • Store FileCloud credentials securely using environment variables or secure configuration management rather than hardcoding them
  • Consider caching the FileCloudIntegration instance if it will be used multiple times to avoid repeated instantiation
  • Handle potential AttributeError exceptions if settings are not properly configured
  • Use this factory function consistently throughout the application rather than directly instantiating FileCloudIntegration to maintain centralized configuration
  • Consider adding validation to check if credentials are present before instantiation to provide better error messages
