FastOpenAPI is a library for generating and integrating OpenAPI schemas using Pydantic and various frameworks.

This project was inspired by FastAPI and aims to provide a similar developer-friendly experience.

PyPI Downloads


📦 Installation

Install only FastOpenAPI:

pip install fastopenapi

Install FastOpenAPI with a specific framework:

pip install fastopenapi[aiohttp]
pip install fastopenapi[falcon]
pip install fastopenapi[flask]
pip install fastopenapi[quart]
pip install fastopenapi[sanic]
pip install fastopenapi[starlette]
pip install fastopenapi[tornado]

🛠️ Quick Start

Step 1. Create an application

  • Create the main.py file
  • Copy the code from an example
  • For some examples uvicorn is required (pip install uvicorn)

Examples:

  • AIOHTTP

    Click to expand the Falcon Example
    from aiohttp import web
    from pydantic import BaseModel
    
    from fastopenapi.routers import AioHttpRouter
    
    app = web.Application()
    router = AioHttpRouter(app=app)
    
    
    class HelloResponse(BaseModel):
        message: str
    
    
    @router.get("/hello", tags=["Hello"], status_code=200, response_model=HelloResponse)
    async def hello(name: str):
        """Say hello from aiohttp"""
        return HelloResponse(message=f"Hello, {name}! It's aiohttp!")
    
    
    if __name__ == "__main__":
        web.run_app(app, host="127.0.0.1", port=8000)
    
  • Falcon

    Click to expand the Falcon Example
    import falcon.asgi
    import uvicorn
    from pydantic import BaseModel
    
    from fastopenapi.routers import FalconRouter
    
    app = falcon.asgi.App()
    router = FalconRouter(app=app)
    
    
    class HelloResponse(BaseModel):
        message: str
    
    
    @router.get("/hello", tags=["Hello"], status_code=200, response_model=HelloResponse)
    async def hello(name: str):
        """Say hello from Falcon"""
        return HelloResponse(message=f"Hello, {name}! It's Falcon!")
    
    
    if __name__ == "__main__":
        uvicorn.run(app, host="127.0.0.1", port=8000)
    
  • Flask

    Click to expand the Flask Example
    from flask import Flask
    from pydantic import BaseModel
    
    from fastopenapi.routers import FlaskRouter
    
    app = Flask(__name__)
    router = FlaskRouter(app=app)
    
    
    class HelloResponse(BaseModel):
        message: str
    
    
    @router.get("/hello", tags=["Hello"], status_code=200, response_model=HelloResponse)
    def hello(name: str):
        """Say hello from Flask"""
        return HelloResponse(message=f"Hello, {name}! It's Flask!")
    
    
    if __name__ == "__main__":
        app.run(port=8000)
    
  • Quart

    Click to expand the Quart Example
    from pydantic import BaseModel
    from quart import Quart
    
    from fastopenapi.routers import QuartRouter
    
    app = Quart(__name__)
    router = QuartRouter(app=app)
    
    
    class HelloResponse(BaseModel):
        message: str
    
    
    @router.get("/hello", tags=["Hello"], status_code=200, response_model=HelloResponse)
    async def hello(name: str):
        """Say hello from Quart"""
        return HelloResponse(message=f"Hello, {name}! It's Quart!")
    
    
    if __name__ == "__main__":
        app.run(port=8000)
    
  • Sanic

    Click to expand the Sanic Example
    from pydantic import BaseModel
    from sanic import Sanic
    
    from fastopenapi.routers import SanicRouter
    
    app = Sanic("MySanicApp")
    router = SanicRouter(app=app)
    
    
    class HelloResponse(BaseModel):
        message: str
    
    
    @router.get("/hello", tags=["Hello"], status_code=200, response_model=HelloResponse)
    async def hello(name: str):
        """Say hello from Sanic"""
        return HelloResponse(message=f"Hello, {name}! It's Sanic!")
    
    
    if __name__ == "__main__":
        app.run(host="0.0.0.0", port=8000)
    
  • Starlette

    Click to expand the Starlette Example
    import uvicorn
    from pydantic import BaseModel
    from starlette.applications import Starlette

    router = StarletteRouter(app=app)
    
    
    class HelloResponse(BaseModel):
        message: str
    
    
    @router.get("/hello", tags=["Hello"], status_code=200, response_model=HelloResponse)
    async def hello(name: str):
        """Say hello from Starlette"""
        return HelloResponse(message=f"Hello, {name}! It's Starlette!")
    
    if __name__ == "__main__":
        uvicorn.run(app, host="127.0.0.1", port=8000)
    
  • Tornado

    Click to expand the Tornado Example
    import asyncio
    
    from pydantic import BaseModel
    from tornado.web import Application
    
    from fastopenapi.routers.tornado import TornadoRouter
    
    app = Application()
    
    router = TornadoRouter(app=app)
    
    
    class HelloResponse(BaseModel):
        message: str
    
    
    @router.get("/hello", tags=["Hello"], status_code=200, response_model=HelloResponse)
    def hello(name: str):
        """Say hello from Tornado"""
        return HelloResponse(message=f"Hello, {name}! It's Tornado!")
    
    
    async def main():
        app.listen(8000)
        await asyncio.Event().wait()
    
    
    if __name__ == "__main__":
        asyncio.run(main())
    

Step 2. Run the server
