Create Virtual Environment

I prefer to create a virtual environment but that is up to you.

python -m virtualenv fastapi_env

• Activate Virtual Environment

  • In PS:

    ./fastapi_env/Scripts/activate

  • In Terminal:

    source fastapi_env/bin/activate

• Deactivate Virtual Environment

  $ deactivate

Installing

Install it with all the optional dependencies and features using [all]. Installs uvicorn too.

pip install fastapi[all]

Run Server

uvicorn server up with the name of our filename, app and reload on change!

uvicorn [filename]:app --reload

This is a basic setup as they teach on their site.
