UI for designing your API projects

UI Interface

Generated project example

Generated Project Structure

✅ Requirements

  • Python 3.12+
  • UV
  • Docker and Docker Compose (for running the generated project)

🚀 Quick Start

Install FastAPI-Forge:

pip install fastapi-forge

🛠 Usage

Start the project generation process:

fastapi-forge start
  • A web browser will open automatically.
  • Define your database schema and service specifications.
  • Once done, click Generate to build your API.

To start the generated project and its dependencies in Docker:

make up # Builds and runs your project along with additional services
  • The project will run using Docker Compose, simplifying your development environment.
  • Access the SwaggerUI/OpenAPI docs at: http://localhost:8000/docs.

⚙️ Command Options

Customize your project generation with these options:

--use-example

Quickly spin up a project using one of FastAPI-Forge’s prebuilt example templates:

fastapi-forge start --use-example

--no-ui

Skip the web UI and generate your project directly from the terminal:

fastapi-forge start --no-ui

--from-yaml

Load a custom YAML configuration (can be generated through the UI):

fastapi-forge start --from-yaml=~/path/to/config.yaml

--conn-string

Load an existing Postgres database schema:

fastapi-forge start --conn-string=postgres://user:pass@localhost/db_name

Combine Options

Load a YAML config and skip the UI:

fastapi-forge start --from-yaml=~/Documents/project-config.yaml --no-ui

🧰 Using the Makefile

The generated project includes a Makefile to simplify common dev tasks:

Start the Application

make up

Run Tests

Tests are automatically generated based on your schema. Once the app is running (make up):

make test

Run Specific Tests

make test-filter filter="test_name"

Format and Lint Code

Keep your code clean and consistent:

make lint

📦 Database Migrations with Alembic

If you chose Alembic for migrations during project setup, these commands will help manage your database schema:

Generate a New Migration

make mig-gen name="add_users_table"

Apply All Migrations

make mig-head

Apply the Next Migration

make mig-up

Roll Back the Last Migration

make mig-down
