Here's my thought on 💭 Path Operation Advanced Configuration - FastAPI

    Excluding routes from fastapi docs, can be done from the route configuration using `include_in_schema`.  This is handy for routes that are not really api based or duplicates.

From the Docs








        

from fastapi import FastAPI

app = FastAPI()


@app.get("/items/", include_in_schema=False)
async def read_items():
    return [{"item_id": "Foo"}]

trailing slash

I've had better luck just routing both naked and trailing slash routes in fastapi. I've had api's deployed as a subroute to a site rather than a subdomain, and the automatic redirect betweens them tended to always get messed up. This is pretty easy fix for the pain is causes just give vim a yyp, and if you don't want deuplicates in your docs, ignore one.








        

from fastapi import FastAPI

app = FastAPI()

@app.get("/items")
@app.get("/items/", include_in_schema=False)
async def read_items():
    return [{"item_id": "Foo"}]

favicon.ico

Now you do not need to deploy favicons to your api in any way, it is nice to have it in your browser tab, but more importantly to me I hate having console errors that are meaningless, this gives the browser something to automatically grab and not log errors.








        

@app.get("/favicon.ico", include_in_schema=False)
def get_favicon():
    return RedirectResponse(url="https://fokais.com/favicon.ico", status_code=status.HTTP_302_FOUND)
