new vs new-here

• fasterapi new <name> creates a new directory (./<name>) and scaffolds the project inside it.
• fasterapi new-here scaffolds directly into your current directory (./) without creating a new folder.
• new-here is safety-checked and will stop if template paths already exist in the current directory.

Route Versioning Modes

• highest-number
• latest-modified

Token Repo Defaults

If no roles are provided to make-token-repo, defaults are:

admin, user

Email Templates

fasterapi email add-template first asks what kind of template you need, then shows available examples.

Built-in examples (10):

• changing-password
• invitation
• new-signin
• otp
• revoking
• welcome
• password-reset
• email-verification
• receipt
• account-deactivated

Then mount templates with:

fasterapi email mount

For custom files placed in custom_templates/:

fasterapi email mount-custom

If mounting fails, check email_mount_errors.log in the project root.

Typical Workflow

fasterapi make-schema product
fasterapi make-crud product
fasterapi make-service product
fasterapi make-route product --version-mode latest-modified
fasterapi mount
fasterapi run-d

Roadmap

• Improve new and new-here bootstrap customization
• SQLAlchemy repository generators (PostgreSQL/MySQL)
• Config-driven scaffolding via fasterapi.yaml
• CI/CD template generation
• Better Docker/Docker Compose scaffolding
• Shell autocompletion support
