Reusable utilities for FastAPI
Documentation: https://fastapi-utils.davidmontague.xyz
Source Code: https://github.com/dmontagu/fastapi-utils
This is a forked version of fastapi-utils developped by David Montagu.
This package includes a number of utilities to help reduce boilerplate and reuse common functionality across projects:
- Class Based Views: Stop repeating the same dependencies over and over in the signature of related endpoints.
- Response-Model Inferring Router: Let FastAPI infer the
response_model
to use based on your return type annotation. - Repeated Tasks: Easily trigger periodic tasks on server startup
- Timing Middleware: Log basic timing information for every request
- SQLAlchemy Sessions: The
FastAPISessionMaker
class provides an easily-customized SQLAlchemy Session dependency - OpenAPI Spec Simplification: Simplify your OpenAPI Operation IDs for cleaner output from OpenAPI Generator
It also adds a variety of more basic utilities that are useful across a wide variety of projects:
- APIModel: A reusable
pydantic.BaseModel
-derived base class with useful defaults - APISettings: A subclass of
pydantic.BaseSettings
that makes it easy to configure FastAPI through environment variables - String-Valued Enums: The
StrEnum
andCamelStrEnum
classes make string-valued enums easier to maintain - CamelCase Conversions: Convenience functions for converting strings from
snake_case
tocamelCase
orPascalCase
and back - GUID Type: The provided GUID type makes it easy to use UUIDs as the primary keys for your database tables
See the docs for more details and examples.
This package is intended for use with any recent version of FastAPI (depending on pydantic>=1.0
), and Python 3.7+.
