A lightweight CLI tool to scaffold fastapi projects, run migrations and migrate migration files.

Create and activate a virtual environment and then install fastapi-gene:

$ pip install fastapi-gene

Here are some examples of what fastapi_gene can do:

It creates a fastapi project named main along with it's subfolder models,schema,api and file app.py inside it.

main/
├── app.py
└── main/
    ├── __init__.py
    ├── api/
    │   ├── __init__.py
    │   └── item.py
    ├── models/
    │   └── __init__.py
    └── schema/
        ├── __init__.py
        └── item.py

To run the project just change path to main and run fastapi dev.now, you can navigate to http://127.0.0.1:8000/docs/ to see autogenerated items endpoints but make sure to install fastapi on your enviroment.😊

It creates file and add user table on it as well as map endpoint into your project automatically from fastapi-users[sqlalchemy] module but project structure should be maintained to work as smoothly.

• Supported modules are:
  • fastapi-users[sqlalchemy]
  • fastapi-users[sqlalchemy,oauth]
  • fastapi-users[beanie]
  • fastapi-users[beanie,oauth]

Now, File structure changed to

main/
├── app.py
└── main/
    ├── __init__.py
    ├── api/
    │   ├── __init__.py
    │   |── item.py
    |   └── users.py    #created
    |
    ├── models/
    │   |── __init__.py
    |   |── db.py       #created
    |   └── users.py    #created
    |
    └── schema/
        ├── __init__.py
        |── item.py
        └── users.py    #created

// To reflect users endpoint on project include `user_router` in `app.py` as
# app.py

from fastapi import FastAPI
from main.api import item_router,user_router

app = FastAPI()


app.include_router(item_router)
app.include_router(user_router)

Migrations directory wasnot created to store migrations file. To create that, you should run above command in your terminal and it creates migrations directory named alembic. It works same as alembic init alembic but you can also provide custom name as fastapi_gene makemigrations init --name=migrations

main/
├── app.py
├── alembic/...  #created
├── alembic.ini  #created
└── main/...

// some manual setup

# main/models/__init__.py
from .db import Base

# alembic/env.py
from main.models import Base

...

target_metadata = Base.metadata
config.set_main_option("sqlalchemy.url","sqlite:///./fastgen.db")

After importing Base from user model and sqlalchemy_url inside env.py of migrations directory, you can run this command which will create the migration file with named randomnumber_create_user_tables.py inside version directory of migrations. It works same as alembic revision --autogenerate -m "create user tables".

It applies all migrations upto latest version. It works same as alembic upgrade head. By default, it passes head revision but you can provide desire revision as fastapi_gene migrate up revision_id

It reverts all migrations, bringing the database back to its initial empty state. It works same as alembic downgrade base. By default, it passes base revision but you can provide desire revision as fastapi_gene migrate down revision_id
