This repository is a template repository for projects based on FastAPI. It comes with:

• FastAPI
• alembic for schema migration
• Postgres as database (via docker compose)
• mailhog for local email testing (via docker compose)

The template is based in large parts on the Full Stack FastAPI and PostgreSQL - Base Project Generator by tiangolo.

You need to install the following software first:

• Docker
• Docker Compose
• Poetry

This project comes with poetry as package dependency management tool. The dependencies are defined in ./pyproject.toml

You can install all dependencies via:

$ poetry install

Then you can enter the newly created virtual environment via:

$ poetry shell

The application requires a bunch of environment variables to be set. You can export them into your environment, or create an .env file in the root directory. You can use the following content (only for local testing, not recommended for production):

PROJECT_NAME="FastAPI Template"
SERVER_HOST="http://localhost:3000"
BACKEND_CORS_ORIGINS='["http://localhost:8080", "http://localhost:3000"]'

POSTGRES_SERVER=localhost
POSTGRES_USER=postgres
POSTGRES_PASSWORD=postgres
POSTGRES_DB=app_db

SMTP_PORT=1025
SMTP_HOST=localhost
SMTP_TLS=False
EMAILS_FROM_EMAIL=[email protected]
EMAILS_FROM_NAME="FastAPI Backend"

EMAILS_ENABLED=True
FIRST_SUPERUSER=[email protected]
FIRST_SUPERUSER_PASSWORD=test-1234
USERS_OPEN_REGISTRATION=True

Start the docker containers defined in file ./docker-compose.yml via command docker-compose up -d --no-recreate. This starts all peripheral docker containers that are needed locally to run the application:

• fastapi-template-db: The database for the application (currently PostgreSQL)
• mailhog: MailHog is an email testing tool for developers. The SMTP server starts on port 1025 and the HTTP server starts on port 8025, so you can see all outgoing email under http://localhost:8025.

To create the database schema via alembic and create a default admin user run:

$ ./scripts/init/start.sh

Maybe you have to run the following command before:

export PYTHONPATH="${PYTHONPATH}:/path/to/your/project"

Please note that the script must be run from the root directory.

To start the server please run:

$  uvicorn app.main:app --reload

After the server is started, the API Doc is available at http://127.0.0.1:8000/docs or http://127.0.0.1:8000/redoc.

To run all tests please run:

$ ./scripts/test/start.sh

If you want to have a coverage html report run:

$ ./scripts/test/start-cov-html.sh

Upgrade the dependency version in pyproject.toml and run the following command afterwards:

$ poetry update

The project also comes with the following developer tools:

• flake8: Tool For Style Guide Enforcement
• Mypy: Mypy is an optional static type checker for Python that aims to combine the benefits of dynamic (or "duck") typing and static typing.
• Black: Black is a PEP 8 compliant opinionated formatter.
• isort: isort is a Python library to sort imports alphabetically, and automatically separated into sections and by type.
• autoflake: autoflake removes unused imports and unused variables from Python code. It makes use of pyflakes to do this.

You can check your code with:

$ ./scripts/format/check.sh

You can run auto-formatting with:

$ ./scripts/format/format.sh
