Backend Training 2024

This project is designed specifically for programs related to FastAPI. It aims to allow students to focus on learning FastAPI without worrying about environment setup. The project includes the necessary configurations and dependencies to start quickly and easily.

Prerequisites

Make sure you have the following software installed on your machine:

• Git
• Docker Desktop or Docker Engine

Project Structure

The project is structured as follows:

• requirements.txt: Lists the Python dependencies required for the project.
• Dockerfile: Contains the instructions to build the Docker image for the FastAPI application.
• docker-compose.yaml: Defines the services and configurations for running the project using Docker Compose.
• app/: Directory containing the FastAPI application code.
• members/: Directory for storing each participant's assignments as Git submodules. Each participant should add their own repository as a submodule under members/ using the following steps in members/README.md.

Setup Instructions

1. Clone the repository

git clone <repository_url>
cd <repository_directory>

2. Make your own compose and requirements

cp docker-compose.yaml.example docker-compose.yaml

3. Make sure your requirements file and project with main.py are in the app direcotry

mkdir -p app
touch app/requirements.txt
touch app/main.py

Tip

You can copy requirements.txt.example file into app directory and rename to app/requirements.txt

Note

Please make sure that main.py is not empty.

4. Build and start the application using Docker Compose

docker-compose up --build -d

5. Access the FastAPI application

The FastAPI application will be available at http://localhost:8080.

Dockerfile

The Dockerfile sets up the environment for the FastAPI application. It includes the following key steps:

• Use an official Python base image.
• Set the working directory.
• Copy the necessary files.
• Install the required Python packages.
• Specify the command to run the FastAPI application.

Docker Compose

The docker-compose.yaml file defines the services required for the application. It includes:

• The FastAPI service, built from the Dockerfile.
• Configuration for environment variables and port mappings.
• MariaDB database service and PHPMyAdmin.
