When you install FastAPI (e.g. with `pip install fastapi`), it includes a package called `fastapi-cli`, this package provides the `fastapi` command in the terminal. To run your FastAPI app for development, you can use the `fastapi dev` command:
```console $ fastapi dev main.py INFO Using path main.py INFO Resolved absolute path /home/user/code/awesomeapp/main.py INFO Searching for package file structure from directories with __init__.py files INFO Importing from /home/user/code/awesomeapp ╭─ Python module file ─╮ │ │ │ 🐍 main.py │ │ │ ╰──────────────────────╯ INFO Importing module main INFO Found importable FastAPI app ╭─ Importable FastAPI app ─╮ │ │ │ from main import app │ │ │ ╰──────────────────────────╯ INFO Using import string main:app ╭────────── FastAPI CLI - Development mode ───────────╮ │ │ │ Serving at: http://127.0.0.1:8000 │ │ │ │ API docs: http://127.0.0.1:8000/docs │ │ │ │ Running in development mode, for production use: │ │ │ │ fastapi run │ │ │ ╰─────────────────────────────────────────────────────╯ INFO: Will watch for changes in these directories: ['/home/user/code/awesomeapp'] INFO: Uvicorn running on http://127.0.0.1:8000 (Press CTRL+C to quit) INFO: Started reloader process [56345] using WatchFiles INFO: Started server process [56352] INFO: Waiting for application startup. INFO: Application startup complete. ```
That command line program called `fastapi` is **FastAPI CLI**. FastAPI CLI takes the path to your Python program and automatically detects the variable with the FastAPI (commonly named `app`) and how to import it, and then serves it. For production you would use `fastapi run` instead. 🚀 Internally, **FastAPI CLI** uses Uvicorn, a high-performance, production-ready, ASGI server. 😎 ## `fastapi dev` When you run `fastapi dev`, it will run on development mode. By default, it will have **auto-reload** enabled, so it will automatically reload the server when you make changes to your code. This is resource intensive and could be less stable than without it, you should only use it for development. By default it will listen on the IP address `127.0.0.1`, which is the IP for your machine to communicate with itself alone (`localhost`). ## `fastapi run` When you run `fastapi run`, it will run on production mode by default. It will have **auto-reload disabled** by default. It will listen on the IP address `0.0.0.0`, which means all the available IP addresses, this way it will be publicly accessible to anyone that can communicate with the machine. This is how you would normally run it in production, for example, in a container. In most cases you would (and should) have a "termination proxy" handling HTTPS for you on top, this will depend on how you deploy your application, your provider might do this for you, or you might need to set it up yourself. You can learn more about it in the FastAPI Deployment documentation. ## License This project is licensed under the terms of the MIT license.
