tiferet-fast 0.2.1

An extension of the Tiferet Framework for the Fast API.

Tiferet Fast - A FastAPI Extension for the Tiferet Framework

Introduction

Tiferet Fast elevates the Tiferet Python framework by enabling developers to build high-performance, asynchronous APIs using FastAPI, grounded in Domain-Driven Design (DDD) principles. Inspired by the concept of beauty in harmony, this extension integrates Tiferet's domain-event-driven architecture with FastAPI's modern, declarative routing and automatic OpenAPI documentation. The result is a robust, modular platform for crafting scalable web services that transform complex business logic into elegant, extensible API designs.

For a deeper understanding of Tiferet's core concepts, refer to the Tiferet documentation.

Getting Started

Requirements

• Python 3.10 or later
• Tiferet >= 2.0.0b1

Installation

pip install tiferet-fast

The app/events/ directory holds domain event classes for arithmetic operations. The app/configs/ directory contains YAML configuration files for application interfaces, dependency injection, error handling, feature workflows, FastAPI routing, and logging. The calc_fast_api.py script initializes and serves the FastAPI application using FastApiBuilder.

Architecture (v0.2.0)

Tiferet Fast v0.2.0 aligns with the Tiferet v2.0 layered architecture:

• Domain (tiferet_fast.domain) — FastRoute, FastRouter domain objects (Pydantic v2).
• Interfaces (tiferet_fast.interfaces) — FastApiService abstract service contract.
• Mappers (tiferet_fast.mappers) — Aggregates and YAML TransferObjects for routes/routers.
• Events (tiferet_fast.events) — GetRouters, GetRoute, GetStatusCode domain events.
• Repos (tiferet_fast.repos) — FastYamlRepository (YamlLoader-based service implementation).
• Contexts (tiferet_fast.contexts) — FastApiContext, FastRequestContext.
• Builders (tiferet_fast.builders) — FastApiBuilder (primary entry point, aliased as FastAPI).

Usage

Configuring Routes in fast.yml

fast:
  routers:
    calc:
      prefix: /calc
      routes:
        add:
          path: /add
          methods: [POST, GET]
          status_code: 200
        subtract:
          path: /subtract
          methods: [POST, GET]
          status_code: 200
  errors:
    INVALID_INPUT: 400
    DIVISION_BY_ZERO: 422

Configuring the App Interface in app.yml

interfaces:
  calc_fast_api:
    name: Basic Calculator API
    description: Perform basic calculator operations via FastAPI
    module_path: tiferet_fast.contexts.fast
    class_name: FastApiContext
    attrs:
      get_route_evt:
        module_path: tiferet_fast.events.fast
        class_name: GetRoute
      get_status_code_evt:
        module_path: tiferet_fast.events.fast
        class_name: GetStatusCode
      fast_api_service:
        module_path: tiferet_fast.repos.fast
        class_name: FastYamlRepository
        params:
          fast_yaml_file: app/configs/fast.yml

Building and Running the API

from tiferet_fast import FastAPI
from starlette.requests import Request
from starlette.responses import JSONResponse

# Create the builder and load the app service.
app = FastAPI()
app.load_app_service()

# Load the interface context.
context = app.load_interface('calc_fast_api')

# Define a view function for handling requests.
async def view_func(request: Request):
    data = await request.json() if request.headers.get('content-type') == 'application/json' else {}
    data.update(dict(request.query_params))
    headers = dict(request.headers)

    response, status_code = context.run(
        feature_id=request.scope['route'].name,
        headers=headers,
        data=data,
    )
    return JSONResponse(response, status_code=status_code)

# Build the FastAPI application.
fast_app = app.build_fast_app('calc_fast_api', view_func=view_func)

# Serve with uvicorn.
if __name__ == '__main__':
    import uvicorn
    uvicorn.run(fast_app, host='127.0.0.1', port=8000)

Testing the API

# Add two numbers
curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:8000/calc/add -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"a": 1, "b": 2}'
# Output: 3

# Calculate square root
curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:8000/calc/sqrt -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"a": 16}'
# Output: 4.0

Migration from v0.1.x

v0.2.0 is a breaking release that aligns with Tiferet v2.0:

• models/ → domain/ (Pydantic v2 DomainObject replaces schematics ModelObject)
• contracts/ → interfaces/ (Service(ABC) replaces typed contracts)
• data/ → mappers/ (Aggregate + TransferObject replace DataObject)
• handlers/ → events/ (DomainEvent subclasses replace handler classes)
• proxies/ → repos/ (YamlLoader composition replaces YamlConfigurationProxy inheritance)
• FastApiContext.build_fast_app() → FastApiBuilder.build_fast_app() (builder pattern)
• Top-level export: from tiferet_fast import FastAPI (alias for FastApiBuilder)
