2687 Fastapi Scaffold 2e791023

FastAPI Scaffold

Generates a complete FastAPI REST API boilerplate with async support, authentication, database integration, and testing setup.

What This Command Does

Generated Project:

• FastAPI with Python 3.10+
• Async/await throughout
• JWT authentication
• Database integration (SQLAlchemy async)
• Pydantic models & validation
• Automatic OpenAPI docs
• Testing setup (Pytest + httpx)
• Docker configuration
• Example CRUD endpoints

Output: Complete API project ready for development

Time: 5-10 minutes

Usage

# Generate full FastAPI API
/fastapi-scaffold "Task Management API"

# Shortcut
/fas "E-commerce API"

# With specific database
/fas "Blog API" --database postgresql

# With authentication type
/fas "Social API" --auth jwt --database postgresql

Example Output

Input:

/fas "Task Management API" --database postgresql
