To read application configuration using the Agent SDK, call the get_app_config method.
fclient.get_app_config("low_power_mode", None)
The first argument is the name of the key you wish to retrieve the value for, and the second argument is the default return if no key exists.
Device configuration -> General -> Application configuration
Example application
Play with the following script to understand how application configuration can be read and handled.
import time
import random
from formant.sdk.agent.v1 import Client as FormantClient
if __name__ == "__main__":
fclient = FormantClient()
low_power_mode = fclient.get_app_config("low_power_mode", None) == "true"
if low_power_mode:
print("Entering low power mode.")
cycle_period = 1.0 if low_power_mode else 0.25
while True:
fclient.post_numeric("example.numeric", random.random())
time.sleep(cycle_period)
