## Use the `fastapi run` Command

In short, use `fastapi run` to serve your FastAPI application:

<div class="termy">

```console
$ <font color="#4E9A06">fastapi</font> run <u style="text-decoration-style:single">main.py</u>
<font color="#3465A4">INFO    </font> Using path <font color="#3465A4">main.py</font>

    ```

    `Body` also has all the same extra validation and metadata parameters as `Query`,`Path` and others you will see later.

## Embed a single body parameter

Let's say you only have a single `item` body parameter from a Pydantic model `Item`.

By default, **FastAPI** will then expect its body directly.

Later, when reading about how to structure bigger applications ([Bigger Applications - Multiple Files](../../tutorial/bigger-applications.md){.internal-link target=_blank}), possibly with multiple files, you will learn how to declare a single `dependencies` parameter for a group of *path operations*....

In the code, a `Bucket` represents the main entrypoint of communication with the database.

This utility function will:

* Connect to a **Couchbase** cluster (that might be a single machine).
    * Set defaults for timeouts.
* Authenticate in the cluster.
* Get a `Bucket` instance.
    * Set defaults for timeouts.
* Return it.

```Python hl_lines="12-21"

But here's the key point.

The security and dependency injection stuff is written once.

And you can make it as complex as you want. And still, have it written only once, in a single place. With all the flexibility.

But you can have thousands of endpoints (*path operations*) using the same security system.

It is compatible with:

* PostgreSQL
* MySQL
* SQLite

In this example, we'll use **SQLite**, because it uses a single file and Python has integrated support. So, you can copy this example and run it as is.

Later, for your production application, you might want to use a database server like **PostgreSQL**.

    The app above is a minimal and simple example to demonstrate how to handle and broadcast messages to several WebSocket connections.

    But keep in mind that, as everything is handled in memory, in a single list, it will only work while the process is running, and will only work with a single process.

I'll also show you the **official Docker image** that includes **Gunicorn with Uvicorn workers** and some default configurations that can be useful for simple cases.

There I'll also show you how to **build your own image from scratch** to run a single Uvicorn process (without Gunicorn). It is a simple process and is probably what you would want to do when using a distributed container management system like **Kubernetes**.

## Global Dependencies

# Déploiement

Le déploiement d'une application **FastAPI** est relativement simple.

## Que signifie le déploiement

**Déployer** une application signifie effectuer les étapes nécessaires pour la rendre **disponible pour les
utilisateurs**.

Pour une **API Web**, cela implique normalement de la placer sur une **machine distante**, avec un **programme serveur**
