Initialize Project

fastgram init [name]

Creates a new FastAPI project structure with pre-configured middleware:

│   └── __init__.py

└── settings.py

Default project name: backend

Middleware

Generated projects include these middleware by default:

Middleware	Description
RateLimitMiddleware	Rate limiting (default: 5 requests/second)
LoggingMiddleware	Logs incoming HTTP requests
CORSMiddleware	Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (permissive)
RequestIDMiddleware	Adds unique request ID to each request

Configure Middleware

Edit settings.py to modify middleware:

MIDDLEWARE = [
    "middleware.rate_limit.RateLimitMiddleware",
    "middleware.logging.LoggingMiddleware",
    "middleware.cors.CORSMiddleware",
    "middleware.request_id.RequestIDMiddleware",
]

Rate Limit Settings

Configure rate limiting in settings.py:

RATE_LIMIT_LIMIT = "5/second"  # Format: "<count>/<second|minute>"

Settings

All configuration is centralized in settings.py:

SECRET_KEY = "generated_secret_key_here"

# Database settings
DB_URL = "sqlite+aiosqlite:///./db.sqlite3"

# Server settings
HOST = "127.0.0.1"
PORT = 8000
RELOAD = True

# Rate limit settings
RATE_LIMIT_LIMIT = "5/second"

# Middleware registration
MIDDLEWARE = [
    "middleware.rate_limit.RateLimitMiddleware",
    "middleware.logging.LoggingMiddleware",
    "middleware.cors.CORSMiddleware",
    "middleware.request_id.RequestIDMiddleware",
]

Generate SSL Certificates

Creates SSL certificates in certs/ directory:

• certs/cert.pem - SSL certificate
• certs/key.pem - Private key

Commands

Command	Description
init [name]	Initialize FastAPI project structure
ssl	Generate self-signed SSL certificates
help	Show available commands

manage.py Commands

After initializing a project, use manage.py for development tasks:

cd myproject

Run Development Server

python manage.py runserver                    # Default: 127.0.0.1:8000
python manage.py runserver --host 0.0.0.0     # Bind to all interfaces
python manage.py runserver --port 8080        # Custom port
python manage.py runserver --noreload         # Disable auto-reload

Database Migration

python manage.py migrate                      # Create database tables

Show Help

python manage.py help

Project Structure

Generated projects follow a clean architecture:

myproject/
├── api/          # API route handlers
├── core/         # Core application settings
├── database/     # Database models and connections
├── middleware/   # Custom middleware (CORS, Logging, Rate Limit, etc.)
├── schema/       # Pydantic schemas
├── service/      # Business logic
├── views/        # View controllers
├── main.py       # FastAPI application entry point
├── manage.py     # Django-like management script
└── settings.py   # Centralized configuration

Requirements

• Python 3.10+
• OpenSSL (for SSL certificate generation)
