fastapi-lsp 0.1.5

Language server for FastAPI and Starlette

fastapi-lsp

Language server for FastAPI and Starlette — routes, Depends() graph, url_for, Jinja templates, env/settings. One Rust binary, any LSP-capable editor. Static analysis only.

Features

Diagnostics	param mismatches, shadowed routes, unincluded routers, Depends(fn()), dep cycles, broken url_for, missing templates, undefined env keys
Navigation	test call → handler, Depends() chains both ways, template files, .env lines
Hover	route card: resolved path, router chain, response model, deps, middleware
Completions	route paths, url_for names, template paths, env keys
Symbols	GET /api/books/{book_id} in the symbol picker
Code lenses	test count, dep usage, override count per handler
check CLI	same diagnostics as a linter — fastapi-lsp check .

Installation

uv tool install fastapi-lsp
