labthings-fastapi

A FastAPI based library to implement a Web of Things interface for laboratory hardware using Python. This is a ground-up rewrite of python-labthings, based on FastAPI and Pydantic. It is the underlying framework for v3 of the OpenFlexure Microscope software.

Documentation, including install instructions, is available on readthedocs.

Installation

See readthedocs for installation instructions that are automatically tested. You can install this package with pip install labthings-fastapi.

Installation Notes

labthings-fastapi supports Python 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, and 3.13. The upper limit is strictly capped at 3.13 due to current pydantic-core dependencies.

Note: Windows Installations on devices with ARM processors

Installing on Windows devices with ARM processors requires Visual Studio with the "Desktop development with C++" workload enabled. This is necessary because pydantic relies on Rust, which in turn requires C++ build tools to compile.

If you are using a centrally managed machine, you will need administrator privileges to install these system-level dependencies.

For instructions on how to set up a development environment, run tests, and contribute to this project, please see our Contributor Guidelines and Testing Guidelines.
