Minumtium FastAPI

A FastAPI application layer for the minumtium library.

How it works

This library will provide you REST endpoints for authentication, user management and posts. It will use by default the Simple JWT Auth Adapter for authentication and the SQLite Adapter for data access/storage, but you can provide your own adapters if needed. Also, exposing the user management endpoints is optional, for the cases where you have your own user management and/or authentication systems and don't want to use the built-in ones.

This library is meant to be integrated into a bigger FastAPI application, so you can extend your application adding very simple blogging functionality to it.

Usage

Install it using your favorite package manager:

pip install minumtium-fastapi

pipenv install minumtium-fastapi

poetry install minumtium-fastapi

Then, get the FastAPI router to connect it as a subapp into your main FastAPI app:

from fastapi import FastAPI

import minumtium_fastapi

# Create the minumtium subapp
minumtium = minumtium_fastapi.get_minumtium_fastapi()

# Mount minumtium into your main application, with whatever prefix you would like
main_application = FastAPI()
main_application.mount('/minumtium', main_application)

You will get an instance that will use an in-memory sqlite and the standard JWT authentication when you call minumtium_fastapi.get_minumtium_fastapi() without passing any arguments.

Providing Custom Adapters

You can also provide your own adapters for data and authentication and disable the user management endpoints.

from fastapi import FastAPI

import minumtium_fastapi

from my_cool_app import MyCoolDatabaseAdapter, MyCoolAuthenticationAdapter

# Create your adapters
database_adapter_posts = MyCoolDatabaseAdapter('posts')
database_adapter_users = MyCoolDatabaseAdapter('users')
authentication_adapter = MyCoolAuthenticationAdapter()

# Create the minumtium subapp
minumtium = minumtium_fastapi.get_minumtium_fastapi(database_adapter_posts,
                                                    database_adapter_users,
                                                    include_user_endpoints=False)

# Mount minumtium into your main application, with whatever prefix you would like
main_application = FastAPI()
main_application.mount('/minumtium', main_application)

Running Standalone

You can also run it standalone, but this is probably useless. Create a file named main.py with the following contents:

from fastapi import FastAPI

import minumtium_fastapi

app = FastAPI()
app.mount('/minumtium', minumtium_fastapi.get_minumtium_fastapi())

Then execute it in the terminal:

uvicorn main:app --reload

You will be able to see the API docs going to /<minumtium mount path>/docs in a running instance of minumtium.
