Jackson Easy API

Easy API is a simple library for building APIs using FastAPI and SQLAlchemy. It provides an easy-to-use framework to help you create and manage APIs with minimal effort.

Installation

To install Easy API, run the following command:

pip install jackson_easy_api

After installation, run the start command to initialize your project and generate the manage.py file in the root of your project:

start

  migrate                Apply migrations to the database
  test <app_name>        Run tests for the specified app (or all apps if no app_name is provided)
  format <app_name>      Format a specified app using isort and blue
  --help, -h             Show this help message

Example Usage

1. Create a new project:

python manage.py createproject my_project

2. Create a new app within the project:

python manage.py createapp my_app

Important: After creating a new app, you must add the app name to the apps list in settings.py. This ensures the app's routes are included in the FastAPI application.

Here's an example of how to modify settings.py:

import importlib
from typing import List
from fastapi import FastAPI

class Settings:
    app_title: str = "API School"
    app_version: str = "1.0.0"
    apps: List[str] = ["my_app"]  # Add your app here

    @staticmethod
    def create_app() -> FastAPI:
        application: FastAPI = FastAPI(
            title=settings.app_title,
            version=settings.app_version,
        )

        # Loop through the apps and include their routes
        for app_name in settings.apps:
            app_module = importlib.import_module(f"{app_name}.routes")
            application.include_router(app_module.router, prefix=f"{app_name}", tags=[app_name])

        return application

settings = Settings()

This configuration will ensure that the routes for your app (my_app in this case) are included in the FastAPI application with a URL prefix of /my_app.

3. Make migrations for your app:

python manage.py makemigrations

4. Apply migrations to the database:

python manage.py migrate

5. Run tests for a specific app:

python manage.py test my_app
