A CLI tool for bootstrapping FastAPI projects and apps

Faster API

Faster API is a Python CLI tool for scaffolding and managing FastAPI projects with a Django-inspired developer experience. It boosts productivity for large-scale projects by offering modular project structure, built-in user authentication, and out-of-the-box support for PostgreSQL via Docker.

Features

• Django-like commands: startproject, startapp, runserver, makemigrations, migrate, createsuperuser
• Modular project/app structure for scalable codebases
• Preconfigured with:
  • SQLAlchemy
  • Pydantic Settings module
  • User, profile, and preference models
  • Auth endpoints (OAuth2, registration, token refresh)
• Integrated PostgreSQL dev server powered by Docker

Installation

pip install faster-api

Commands

• startproject <name> [--db_port <port>]: Create a new FastAPI project
• startapp <name>: Create a new app within the project
• runserver [--host <host>] [--port <port>]: Launch the development server
• makemigrations: Generate a new Alembic migration
• migrate: Apply all migrations

cd myproject
cp .env.example .env
fasterapi dbup
fasterapi makemigrations
fasterapi migrate
fasterapi runserver

Creating an App

fasterapi startapp blog

Then update:

• alembic/env.py:

  import app.blog.models
  

• app/core/routers/v1.py:

  from app.blog import views as blog_views
  api_router.include_router(blog_views.router, prefix="/blog", tags=["blog"])
  

Creating a Superuser

fasterapi createsuperuser
