About The Project

Example of FastAPI integration supported by almighty Pydantic 2.0 with SQLAlchemy ORM and PostgreSQL connected via fastest Database Client Library for python/asyncio asyncpg.

Beside of using latest and greatest version of SQLAlchemy with it robustness, powerfulness and speed of asyncpg there is FastAPI (modern, fast (high-performance), web framework for building APIs with Python 3.8+ based on standard Python type hints.) already reviewed on thoughtworks and noted in Python Developers Survey 2021 Results as the fifth official annual Python Developers Survey, conducted as a collaborative effort between the Python Software Foundation and JetBrains.

How to feed database

It took me a while to find nice data set. Hope works of Shakespeare as example will be able to cover first part with read only declarative base configuration and all type of funny selects :) Data set is coming form https://github.com/catherinedevlin/opensourceshakespeare Next models were generated with https://github.com/agronholm/sqlacodegen And after some tweaking I got desired result

Rainbow logs with rich 🌈

To deliver better user(developer) experience when watching logs with tons of information from few emitters (which are really needy on development stage) project is using rich library. Event with rich superpowers reading logs is not easy. Found rich really nice - but it took time to learn how to integrate it as logger object properly and keep it as singleton.

To address below needs:

• it is hard to find what I am looking for even with glasses on.
• don’t want to hire ELK to be able to use logs.
• want to move fast enough with debugging.

Below steps were done to integrate rich into project.

1. Configure emitters with config.ini
2. Eliminate duplicates i.e. sqlalchemy echo by separate handlers
3. Keep logger as singleton pattern to avoid multiple instances
4. add uvicorn parameter --log-config config.ini

Setup User Auth

Setup user authentication with JWT and Redis as token storage.

Local development with poetry

pyenv install 3.11 && pyenv local 3.11

poetry install

Hope you enjoy it.
