coderfastapi 6.1.1

coderfastapi

Coder FastAPI

Security and utility library for building FastAPI applications with authentication, authorization, and pagination out of the box.

Features

• SecureRouter — Drop-in APIRouter replacement that enforces authentication and ACL-based authorization on every route
• Authentication policies — Pluggable strategies for JWT (Bearer token) and session-based authentication
• Authorization policies — Pyramid-style ACL authorization with Allow/Deny rules and composable principals
• JWT providers — Extensible provider system for token creation and request augmentation (expiration, user data, recovery mode)
• Session management — Abstract session manager backed by Redis with configurable TTL and secure token generation
• Pagination — Cursor-based pagination decorator that auto-generates RFC 5988 Link headers
• Cloud logging — Google Cloud Logging integration with Cloud Trace context propagation middleware
• Validation schemas — Pydantic models for query parameters, pagination cursors, and aggregation filters

Installation

pip install coderfastapi

Quick Start

Secure Router with JWT Authentication

from coderfastapi.lib.router import SecureRouter
from coderfastapi.lib.security.acl import ACLProvider
from coderfastapi.lib.security.policies.authentication.jwt import JWTAuthenticationPolicy
from coderfastapi.lib.security.policies.authorization.user import UserAuthorizationPolicy
from fastapi import FastAPI

app = FastAPI()
authentication_policy = JWTAuthenticationPolicy(secret_key="your-secret-key")
authorization_policy = UserAuthorizationPolicy(acl_provider=ACLProvider())
router = SecureRouter(authentication_policy, authorization_policy)

@router.get("/users", permission="public")
async def list_users(request):
    ...

app.include_router(router)

Session Management

from datetime import timedelta

from codercore.lib.redis import connection
from coderfastapi.lib.security import UserSessionManager

cache_connection = connection(host="localhost")
session_manager = UserSessionManager(
    cache_connection=cache_connection,
    session_ttl=timedelta(hours=24),
)

session = await session_manager.create_session(user_id=str(user.id))
retrieved = await session_manager.get_session_by_id(session.id)

Paginated Endpoints

from coderfastapi.lib.decorators import paginate
from coderfastapi.lib.validation.schemas.query import QueryParameters

@router.get("/items")
@paginate("id")
async def list_items(params: QueryParameters = Depends()):
    ...  # return list of items. Link headers are generated automatically

Requirements

• Python 3.12+
• Redis 7+ (required by session management only)

All other features — JWT authentication, authorization, pagination, cloud logging — work without Redis.

Documentation

Build and serve the API reference locally:

pip install -e ".[docs]"
mkdocs serve
