shaapi

Scaffold lean, batteries-included FastAPI backends — like django-admin, for FastAPI.

Beginners shouldn't have to architect a production backend from scratch. shaapi gives you a clean, opinionated FastAPI project — async SQLAlchemy + Alembic, Postgres, Redis, JWT auth, Casbin RBAC, file storage, and a one-command Docker workflow — generated in seconds.

pip install shaapi
shaapi create-project "my api"
cd my_api
./docker-run.sh up

→ API live at http://localhost:8000, Swagger at http://localhost:8000/admin/api/v1/docs.

What you get

• FastAPI (async) with a clean layered architecture (app/, common/, core/, crud/, models/, schemas/)
• SQLAlchemy 2 + Alembic migrations, Postgres (auto-create in dev, migrations in prod)
• Redis cache + rate limiting
• JWT auth + Casbin RBAC (users, roles, permissions)
• File storage (MinIO / S3 / GCS)
• Docker: multi-stage slim image built with uv, hot-reload in dev (source bind-mount), docker-run.sh orchestration
• Opt-in observability (--monitoring): Prometheus, Grafana, Tempo, Loki

CLI

shaapi create-project "my api"          # interactive
shaapi create-project "my api" -y       # accept defaults
shaapi create-project "my api" --monitoring --no-git
shaapi --version

In your generated project

./docker-run.sh up            # build + start everything (dev: hot-reload)
./docker-run.sh up --monitoring
./docker-run.sh logs          # tail logs
./docker-run.sh migrate       # alembic upgrade head
./docker-run.sh makemigrations "add posts table"
./docker-run.sh down
