fastapi-blocks-registry 0.1.0

A modular scaffolding system for FastAPI backends

🧩 FastAPI Blocks Registry

A modular scaffolding system for FastAPI backends, inspired by shadcn-vue. Add production-ready modules (like auth, users, billing) to your FastAPI project with a single CLI command.

🎯 Project Goal

FastAPI Blocks Registry allows you to quickly add complete, production-ready modules to your FastAPI projects. Each module includes models, schemas, routers, services, and all necessary configurations - just copy and customize.

Unlike traditional packages, modules are copied directly into your project, giving you full control to modify and adapt them to your needs.

✨ Features

• 📦 Copy, not install - Modules are copied into your project for full customization
• 🔧 Auto-configuration - Automatically updates main.py, requirements.txt, and .env
• 🎨 Production-ready - Each module follows best practices and includes proper error handling
• 🔒 Type-safe - Full type hints and Pydantic validation
• 📚 Well-documented - Clear code structure with docstrings
• 🚀 Quick start - Get authentication, user management, and more in seconds

🚀 Quick Start

Installation

# Install from source (for development)
pip install -e .

# Or install from PyPI (when published)
pip install fastapi-blocks-registry

Usage

# List available modules
fastapi-registry list

# Show module details
fastapi-registry info auth

# Add a module to your project
fastapi-registry add auth

# Remove a module
fastapi-registry remove auth

What Gets Installed

When you add a module, the CLI automatically:

• ✅ Copies module files to app/modules/<module>/
• ✅ Updates main.py to register the router
• ✅ Adds dependencies to requirements.txt
• ✅ Adds environment variables to .env

📦 Available Modules

Auth Module

Complete JWT-based authentication system with:

• User registration with password strength validation
• Login with JWT access and refresh tokens
• Password reset flow
• Password change for authenticated users
• Token blacklisting support

Endpoints:

• POST /api/v1/auth/register - Register new user
• POST /api/v1/auth/login - Login user
• POST /api/v1/auth/refresh - Refresh access token
• POST /api/v1/auth/forgot-password - Request password reset
• POST /api/v1/auth/reset-password - Reset password with token
• POST /api/v1/auth/change-password - Change password (authenticated)
• GET /api/v1/auth/me - Get current user info

Technologies:

• PyJWT for token management
• Passlib + bcrypt for password hashing
• Pydantic for validation
• In-memory user store (easily replaceable with database)

🧠 Module Structure

Each module follows a consistent structure:

• models.py - Data models (Pydantic or SQLAlchemy)
• schemas.py - Request/response schemas with validation
• router.py - FastAPI route definitions
• service.py - Business logic layer
• dependencies.py - FastAPI dependency injection
• exceptions.py - Module-specific exceptions
• __init__.py - Module initialization

💻 Example Usage

1. Add the auth module to your project

cd your-fastapi-project
fastapi-registry add auth

2. Install dependencies

pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Configure environment variables

Edit your .env file:

SECRET_KEY=your-secret-key-min-32-characters
JWT_ALGORITHM=HS256
ACCESS_TOKEN_EXPIRES_MINUTES=30
REFRESH_TOKEN_EXPIRES_DAYS=7

4. Start your server

uvicorn main:app --reload

5. Test the endpoints

# Register a new user
curl -X POST "http://localhost:8000/api/v1/auth/register" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "email": "[e-mail]",
    "password": "Test123!@#",
    "name": "Test User"
  }'

# Login
curl -X POST "http://localhost:8000/api/v1/auth/login" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "email": "[e-mail]",
    "password": "Test123!@#"
  }'
