Introduction
As a programming language, Python has been continuously evolving.
New features and capabilities are incorporated with each version of
Python. This has made Python the preferred choice of developers
working in different application domains such as machine learning, GUI
construction, API development, etc.
With the inclusion of support for asynchronous processing, using
Python in building high-performance web apps has become
increasingly prevalent. FastAPI is one of the fastest web application
frameworks. It implements the ASGI (Asynchronous Server Gateway
Interface) specification.
FastAPI is a relatively young framework. Yet it has become quite
popular with the developer community. This book aims to help the
reader get acquainted with its salient features. Experienced Python
developers looking to leverage the flexibility of Python and the
powerful features introduced in modern Python as well as computer
science engineering students at graduate and postgraduate levels will
also benefit immensely from the practical approach adapted in the
book.
How This Book Is Arranged
This book comprises ten chapters.
Chapter 1: To begin with, Python’s type hinting and its handling of
asynchronous process are the two aspects introduced. FastAPI is built
on top of Starlette and Pydantic. In this chapter, the reader is
introduced to these two libraries.
Chapter 2: FastAPI follows OpenAPI standards and integrates
seamlessly with Swagger UI. In this chapter, the reader will learn how
FastAPI is able to autogenerate the documentation for the API
endpoints.
Chapter 3: This chapter deals with Pydantic’s BaseModel and how
it populates the body of an HTTP request.
Chapter 4: Although FastAPI is primarily a tool for API
development, it can also be used to build web applications that render
web pages and serve static assets. This chapter covers how to use
jinja2 templates and include static files.
Chapter 5: This chapter explains how the FastAPI application
inserts cookies and headers in its response and how it is able to
retrieve them.
Chapter 6: This chapter provides a comprehensive explanation of
using SQL and NoSQL databases as the back end for a FastAPI
application.
Chapter 7: This chapter is the beginning of the advanced part of
this book. It introduces APIRouters with which bigger applications can
be modularly constructed.
Chapter 8: Apart from REST, FastAPI supports WebSocket and
GraphQL protocols. This chapter describes how to design apps that
implement WebSocket and GraphQL.
Chapter 9: This chapter explains how the reader can secure the API
with different provisions in FastAPI. The reader is also introduced to
FastAPI’s testing functionality.
Chapter 10: Deploying your API for public availability is very
important. This chapter discusses different deployment alternatives.
As mentioned earlier, this book is intended to be a hands-on guide
to learn FastAPI. Hence, it is replete with code listings and screenshots,
which should help the reader to learn the concepts by executing the
code as they read along. All the code snippets are thoroughly tested and
are available in the repository:

Acknowledgments
At the outset, I express my sincere gratitude toward Apress (Springer
Nature) Publications for giving me this opportunity to write this book
and be a part of the Apress family. I thank the editorial team and
especially Jeff Chiu – the technical reviewer – for his invaluable inputs
while finalizing the draft of this book.
I would also like to acknowledge the graphics designers who have
produced a splendid cover page for this book.
The unerring and unconditional support of my family (my wife
Jayashree, daughter Sukhada, and son-in-law Shripad) in my endeavors
has always been my biggest strength. They have stood by me in good
and bad times. A very dear friend Dr. Kishore Atnurkar and his wife
Seema, who are no less than a part of my family, have been appreciative
of my work and have always given me a lot of encouragement. It
wouldn’t be out of place to acknowledge their contribution.
Throughout my academic life, I have been blessed with guidance
from some highly inspiring teachers. Their profound influence has
made me a lifelong learner. I hereby pay my respectful regards to all my
teachers.
You always learn more when you teach. I would like to thank
thousands of my students for being a part of my learning journey.
Finally, for all those who have been involved in bringing out this
book, a big thank you!
