# Pydantic + FastAPI + SQLModel + SQLite This template provides a minimal setup to get FastAPI working with a sqlite database. [SQLModel](https://sqlmodel.tiangolo.com/) is used on top of Pydantic and SQLAlchemy to easily define database objects. ## Getting started ### Install dependencies First, create a new virtual environment for the project: ```bash uv venv ``` This will create an environment `.venv/` that you can instantiate like this: ```bash source .venv/bin/activate ``` Once that's done, install the dependencies like this: ``` uv pip install -e ".[dev]" ``` This will install the project in editable mode, meaning your changes will be reflected in the server. The dev dependencies are also installed for code formatting. ### Run server Run: ```bash make dev ``` Backend server should be available on localhost: ``` INFO: Will watch for changes in these directories: ['/home/wauplin/projects/docker-space-fastapi-react/backend'] INFO: Uvicorn running on http://127.0.0.1:8000 (Press CTRL+C to quit) INFO: Started reloader process [355687] using StatReload INFO: Started server process [355689] INFO: Waiting for application startup. INFO: Application startup complete. ``` Hot reload is enabled, meaning backend is reloaded on each file update. ### Code quality You can run the formatter with: ```bash make style ``` and then test everything's fine with: ```bash make quality ```
