This book provides a comprehensive guide to building APIs and web applications based on the Asynchronous Server Gateway Interface (ASGI). It delves into the use of Pydantic models to construct request/response objects in a FastAPI path operation. The book begins by reviewing type hints in Python and asynchronous processing concepts. One of the standout features of FastAPI is its auto-generation of API documentation, which simplifies the process of creating and maintaining accurate documentation for your applications.
The Pydantic library serves as the foundation upon which FastAPI is built, offering robust data validation and serialization capabilities. The book highlights the advantages of ASGI over other popular Python frameworks, as ASGI is asynchronous and offers faster response times compared to synchronous frameworks like Web Server Gateway Interface (WSGI).
The book explores in detail how FastAPI interacts asynchronously with relational and NoSQL databases, enabling efficient data retrieval and manipulation. It also covers the use of template engines, such as Jinja2, for rendering dynamic content in modern web applications. The book emphasizes the importance of adhering to industry standards, such as Swagger UI and OpenAPI, for documenting and exposing APIs.
Furthermore, the book discusses various deployment options for FastAPI applications, including cloud services like Deta and Docker containers, allowing developers to choose the most suitable approach for their specific needs.
Throughout the book, practical examples are used to demonstrate the concepts and techniques discussed. These examples empower readers to build robust and high-performance web applications, deploy them for public availability, and understand the essential building blocks of web applications, including form handling, templating, and database interaction.
This book is designed for aspiring and experienced Python developers who are interested in leveraging the flexibility of Python and the powerful features introduced in modern Python. It is also valuable for computer science engineering students at graduate and postgraduate levels, as it adopts a practical approach tailored to their learning requirements. By following the guidance provided in this book, developers can create efficient and scalable APIs and web applications that meet the demands of modern web applications.
