This project aims to create a Notes App using Python FastAPI, Sqlmodel, Poetry, and neon PostgreSQL. FastAPI is a modern Python web framework known for its high-performance capabilities, making it ideal for building web applications efficiently. Here's a brief overview of the project:
- FastAPI: A modern Python web framework known for its high-performance capabilities.
- Sqlmodel: A library for SQL databases in Python, which integrates seamlessly with FastAPI for database operations.
- Poetry: A dependency management and packaging tool for Python projects, used here to manage project dependencies.
- Neon PostgreSQL: A PostgreSQL database for storing notes data.
The backend of this app consists of five endpoints:
- One POST request for the create operation
- Two GET requests for the read operation
- One PATCH request for the update operation
- One DELETE request for the delete operation
To set up FastAPI for a basic project, you need to install two things from pip: FastAPI and Uvicorn. Here's how you can create the project and set it up:
poetry new fastapi-notesapp
cd fastapi-notesapp
poetry add fastapi "uvicorn[standard]"
poetry run uvicorn fastapi-notesapp.main:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000
