🚀 fastApi-Fundamentals

Welcome to my FastAPI playground where I took my first spin with FastAPI and went from uvicorn confusion to full-blown route domination.

📚 What I Learned

This repo contains my hands-on experiments and learnings from the world of FastAPI. Here’s a breakdown of my FastAPI road trip:

---

🛠️ Setup & Environment

• Created and activated a virtual environment using venv
• Installed required dependencies:

  pip install fastapi uvicorn

Ran the server using:

Copy
Edit
uvicorn main:app --reload

🏗️ FastAPI Core Concepts Covered :

Concept Description:

-> FastAPI() Initializing the app -> @app.get, .post Declaring API routes -> BaseModel class Pydantic models for data validation -> Path and Query Handling path & query parameters -> Swagger UI Auto-generated docs at /docs -> ReDoc Alternative docs at /redoc

📬 HTTP Methods Implemented

1.) GET / → Welcome route

2.) GET /get-items/{item_id} → Path param demo

3.) GET /get-by-name?name=Milk → Query param demo

4.) POST /create-item/{item_id} → Create new item via body

5.) PUT /update-item/{item_id} → Update item data

6.) DELETE /delete-item/{item_id} → Delete an item

🔬 Testing via Swagger

Visit: http://127.0.0.1:8000/docs

-> Interactive UI for testing all endpoints -> Model validation + auto schema generation

📦 Sample Data Used python

inventory = {
  1: {"name": "Milk", "price": 3.99, "brand": "Regular"}
}
