Configuring your IDE for API integrations
Hot-deployment from your IDE and the ide_publisher account that makes it possible.
Zato supports hot-deployment of Python modules loaded in one of several supported Integrated Development Environments directly to an environment, enabling faster develop/test cycles when developing services.
It is recommended to use VS Code with Zato as that allows you to deploy your services directly from the IDE.
In a newly installed Zato environment, the IDE deployment service and channel are pre-configured and associated with a default account, ide_publisher, which is created with a randomly assigned password that needs to be changed before a plug-in for a given IDE can be used.
Configuration steps
- To reset the
ide_publisher's password, first visit the Security -> HTTP Basic Auth section of Dashboard for your environment:
- Then, use Change password option for the pre-installed
ide_publishercredential to set a new password that your IDE will authenticate with when it deploys services to Zato.
