NOTE: This repository is not actively maintained because this example is quite complete and does its primary goal - passing Conduit testsuite.
More modern and relevant examples can be found in other repositories with fastapi tag on GitHub.
First, run PostgreSQL, set environment variables and create database. For example using docker:
export POSTGRES_DB=rwdb POSTGRES_PORT=5432 POSTGRES_USER=postgres POSTGRES_PASSWORD=postgres
docker run --name pgdb --rm -e POSTGRES_USER="$POSTGRES_USER" -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD="$POSTGRES_PASSWORD" -e POSTGRES_DB="$POSTGRES_DB" postgres
export POSTGRES_HOST=$(docker inspect -f '{{range .NetworkSettings.Networks}}{{.IPAddress}}{{end}}' pgdb)
createdb --host=$POSTGRES_HOST --port=$POSTGRES_PORT --username=$POSTGRES_USER $POSTGRES_DB
Then run the following commands to bootstrap your environment with poetry:
git clone https://github.com/nsidnev/fastapi-realworld-example-app cd fastapi-realworld-example-app poetry install poetry shell
Then create .env file (or rename and modify .env.example) in project root and set environment variables for application:
touch .env echo APP_ENV=dev >> .env echo DATABASE_URL=postgresql://$POSTGRES_USER:$POSTGRES_PASSWORD@$POSTGRES_HOST:$POSTGRES_PORT/$POSTGRES_DB >> .env echo SECRET_KEY=$(openssl rand -hex 32) >> .env
To run the web application in debug use:
alembic upgrade head uvicorn app.main:app --reload
If you run into the following error in your docker container:
sqlalchemy.exc.OperationalError: (psycopg2.OperationalError) could not connect to server: No such file or directory Is the server running locally and accepting connections on Unix domain socket "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432"?
Ensure the DATABASE_URL variable is set correctly in the .env file. It is most likely caused by POSTGRES_HOST not pointing to its localhost.
DATABASE_URL=postgresql://postgres:postgres@0.0.0.0:5432/rwdb
Tests for this project are defined in the tests/ folder.
Set up environment variable DATABASE_URL or set up database_url in app/core/settings/test.py
This project uses pytest to define tests because it allows you to use the assert keyword with good formatting for failed assertations.
To run all the tests of a project, simply run the pytest command:
$ pytest ================================================= test session starts ================================================== platform linux -- Python 3.8.3, pytest-5.4.2, py-1.8.1, pluggy-0.13.1 rootdir: /home/some-user/user-projects/fastapi-realworld-example-app, inifile: setup.cfg, testpaths: tests plugins: env-0.6.2, cov-2.9.0, asyncio-0.12.0 collected 90 items tests/test_api/test_errors/test_422_error.py .

If you want to run a specific test, you can do this with this pytest feature:
$ pytest tests/test_api/test_routes/test_users.py::test_user_can_not_take_already_used_credentials
You must have docker and docker-compose tools installed to work with material in this section.
First, create .env file like in Quickstart section or modify .env.example.
POSTGRES_HOST must be specified as db or modified in docker-compose.yml also.
Then just run:
docker-compose up -d db docker-compose up -d app
Application will be available on localhost in your browser.
All routes are available on /docs or /redoc paths with Swagger or ReDoc.
Files related to application are in the app or tests directories.
Application parts are:
app ├── api - web related stuff. │ ├── dependencies - dependencies for routes definition. │ ├── errors - definition of error handlers. │ └── routes - web routes. ├── core - application configuration, startup events, logging. ├── db - db related stuff. │ ├── migrations - manually written alembic migrations. │ └── repositories - all crud stuff. ├── models - pydantic models for this application. │ ├── domain - main models that are used almost everywhere. │ └── schemas - schemas for using in web routes. ├── resources - strings that are used in web responses. ├── services - logic that is not just crud related. └── main.py - FastAPI application creation and configuration.
