Staging

Note: This page is for internal Ensign development and will probably not be very useful to Ensign users. The staging environment has the latest code deployed frequently, may introduce breaking changes, and has it’s data routinely deleted.

Staging Environment

FieldValueAlias
Beacon UIhttps://ensign.world
Endpoint"staging.ensign.world:443""ensign.ninja:443"
AuthURL"https://auth.ensign.world"

Ensign developers can access the staging environment in order to perform testing and development or to QA release candidates before they are deployed.

To get started, make sure that you’ve created an API Key in the staging environment using the Beacon UI at https://ensign.world . Once you’ve obtained those credentials, add the following environment variables so that your script can access the credentials:

  • $ENSIGN_CLIENT_ID
  • $ENSIGN_CLIENT_SECRET

Go Snippet

If you’re working on the Go SDK in staging, make sure you have the latest version from the commit rather than the latest tagged version so that your client code is up to date with what is in staging:

$ go get github.com/rotationalio/go-ensign@main

By default the Ensign client connects to the Ensign production environment. To connect to Staging you need to specify the staging endpoints in your credentials:

client, err := ensign.New(&ensign.Options{
    Endpoint: "staging.ensign.world:443",
    ClientID: os.GetEnv("ENSIGN_CLIENT_ID"),
    ClientSecret: os.GetEnv("ENSIGN_CLIENT_SECRET"),
    AuthURL: "https://auth.ensign.world",
})

If you’re feeling extra, you can also use the ensign.ninja:443 endpoint which is an alias for staging.ensign.world:443.

Python Snippet

If you’re working with PyEnsign in staging, make sure you have the latest version from the commit rather than the latest tagged version so that your client code is up to date with what is in staging:

$ pip install git+https://github.com/rotationalio/pyensign.git@develop

By default the PyEnsign client connects to the Ensign production environment. To connect to Staging you need to specify the staging endpoints in your credentials:

import os

from pyensign.ensign import Ensign

client = Ensign(
    endpoint="staging.ensign.world:443",
    client_id=os.getenv("ENSIGN_CLIENT_ID),
    client_secret=os.getenv("ENSIGN_CLIENT_SECRET),
    auth_url="https://auth.ensign.world"
)

If you’re feeling extra, you can also use the ensign.ninja:443 endpoint which is an alias for staging.ensign.world:443.
