• New docs at Advanced description from docstring.
• PR #556 by @svalouch.

• This allows declaring a parameter like user_id: str = None that can be taken from a query parameter, but the same path operation can be included in a router with a path /users/{user_id}, in which case will be taken from the path and will be required.
• PR #464 by @jonathanunderwood.

• And use media type from response class instead of fixed application/json (the default).
• PR #437 by @divums.

• This allows having a router for /cats and all its path operations, while having one of them for /cats.
• Now it doesn't have to be only /cats/ (with a trailing slash).
• To use it, declare the path in the path operation as the empty string ("").

Fix OpenAPI/JSON Schema generation for two functions with the same name (in different modules) with the same composite bodies.

• Composite bodies' IDs are now based on path, not only on route name, as the auto-generated name uses the function names, that can be duplicated in different modules.
• The same new ID generation applies to response models.
• This also changes the generated title for those models.
• Only composite bodies and response models are affected because those are generated dynamically, they don't have a module (a Python file).
• This also adds the possibility of using .include_router() with the same APIRouter multiple times, with different prefixes, e.g. /api/v2 and /api/latest, and it will now work correctly.
• PR #347.

• New supported version range is "pydantic >=0.28,<=0.29.0".
• This adds support for Pydantic Generic Models, kudos to @dmontagu.
• PR #344.

Update and clarify SQL tutorial with SQLAlchemy. PR #331 by @mariacamilagl.

Add SQLite online viewers to the docs. PR #330 by @cyrilbois.

Add support for Pydantic's ORM mode:

• Updated documentation about SQL with SQLAlchemy, using Pydantic models with ORM mode, SQLAlchemy models with relations, separation of files, simplification of code and other changes. New docs: SQL (Relational) Databases.
• The new support for ORM mode fixes issues/adds features related to ORMs with lazy-loading, hybrid properties, dynamic/getters (using @property decorators) and several other use cases.
• This applies to ORMs like SQLAlchemy, Peewee, Tortoise ORM, GINO ORM and virtually any other.
• If your path operations return an arbitrary object with attributes (e.g. my_item.name instead of my_item["name"]) AND you use a response_model, make sure to update the Pydantic models with orm_mode = True as described in the docs (link above).
• New documentation about receiving plain dicts as request bodies: Bodies of arbitrary dicts.
• New documentation about returning arbitrary dicts in responses: Response with arbitrary dict.
• Technical Details:
  • When declaring a response_model it is used directly to generate the response content, from whatever was returned from the path operation function.
  • Before this, the return content was first passed through jsonable_encoder to ensure it was a "jsonable" object, like a dict, instead of an arbitrary object with attributes (like an ORM model). That's why you should make sure to update your Pydantic models for objects with attributes to use orm_mode = True.
  • If you don't have a response_model, the return object will still be passed through jsonable_encoder first.
  • When a response_model is declared, the same response_model type declaration won't be used as is, it will be "cloned" to create an new one (a cloned Pydantic Field with all the submodels cloned as well).
  • This avoids/fixes a potential security issue: as the returned object is passed directly to Pydantic, if the returned object was a subclass of the response_model (e.g. you return a UserInDB that inherits from User but contains extra fields, like hashed_password, and User is used in the response_model), it would still pass the validation (because UserInDB is a subclass of User) and the object would be returned as-is, including the hashed_password. To fix this, the declared response_model is cloned, if it is a Pydantic model class (or contains Pydantic model classes in it, e.g. in a List[Item]), the Pydantic model class(es) will be a different one (the "cloned" one). So, an object that is a subclass won't simply pass the validation and returned as-is, because it is no longer a sub-class of the cloned response_model. Instead, a new Pydantic model object will be created with the contents of the returned object. So, it will be a new object (made with the data from the returned one), and will be filtered by the cloned response_model, containing only the declared fields as normally.

  • An HTTP Status Code different than the default: Response - Change Status Code.
• All of this while still being able to return arbitrary objects (dict, DB model, etc).
• Update attribution to Hug, for inspiring the response parameter pattern.
• PR #294.

Implement dependency cache per request.

• This avoids calling each dependency multiple times for the same request.
• This is useful while calling external services, performing costly computation, etc.
• This also means that if a dependency was declared as a path operation decorator dependency, possibly at the router level (with .include_router()) and then it is declared again in a specific path operation, the dependency will be called only once.
• The cache can be disabled per dependency declaration, using use_cache=False as in Depends(your_dependency, use_cache=False).
• Updated docs at: Using the same dependency multiple times.
• PR #292.

Implement dependency overrides for testing.

• This allows using overrides/mocks of dependencies during tests.
• New docs: Testing Dependencies with Overrides.
• PR #291.

• Add method consistency tests.
• PR #264.

Add CONTRIBUTING.md file to GitHub, to help new contributors. PR #255 by @wshayes.

Add support for Pydantic's skip_defaults:

• There's a new path operation decorator parameter response_model_skip_defaults.
  • The name of the parameter will most probably change in a future version to response_skip_defaults, model_skip_defaults or something similar.
• New documentation section about using response_model_skip_defaults.
• PR #248 by @wshayes.

Add support for WebSockets with dependencies and parameters.

• Support included for:
  • Depends
  • Security
  • Cookie
  • Header

  • ...as these are compatible with the WebSockets protocol (e.g. Body is not).
• Updated documentation for WebSockets.
• PR #178 by @jekirl.

Upgrade the compatible version of Pydantic to 0.26.0.

• This includes JSON Schema support for IP address and network objects, bug fixes, and other features.
• PR #247 by @euri10.

• This includes support for ASGI 3 (the latest version of the standard).
• It's now possible to use Starlette's StreamingResponse with iterators, like file-like objects (as those returned by open()).
• It's now possible to use the low level utility iterate_in_threadpool from starlette.concurrency (for advanced scenarios).
• PR #243.

Add OAuth2 redirect page for Swagger UI. This allows having delegated authentication in the Swagger UI docs. For this to work, you need to add {your_origin}/docs/oauth2-redirect to the allowed callbacks in your OAuth2 provider (in Auth0, Facebook, Google, etc).

• For example, during development, it could be http://localhost:8000/docs/oauth2-redirect.
• Have in mind that this callback URL is independent of whichever one is used by your frontend. You might also have another callback at https://yourdomain.com/login/callback.
• This is only to allow delegated authentication in the API docs with Swagger UI.
• PR #198 by @steinitzu.

Make Swagger UI and ReDoc URLs parameterizable, allowing to host and serve local versions of them and have offline docs. PR #112 by @euri10.

Add support for dependencies parameter:

• A parameter in path operation decorators, for dependencies that should be executed but the return value is not important or not used in the path operation function.
• A parameter in the .include_router() method of FastAPI applications and routers, to include dependencies that should be executed in each path operation in a router.
  • This is useful, for example, to require authentication or permissions in specific group of path operations.
  • Different dependencies can be applied to different routers.
• These dependencies are run before the normal parameter dependencies. And normal dependencies are run too. They can be combined.
• Dependencies declared in a router are executed first, then the ones defined in path operation decorators, and then the ones declared in normal parameters. They are all combined and executed.
• All this also supports using Security with scopes in those dependencies parameters, for more advanced OAuth 2.0 security scenarios with scopes.
• New documentation about dependencies in path operation decorators.
• New documentation about dependencies in the include_router() method.
• PR #235.
