```

And the proxy would be **"stripping"** the **path prefix** on the fly before transmitting the request to the app server (probably Uvicorn via FastAPI CLI), keeping your application convinced that it is being served at `/app`, so that you don't have to update all your code to include the prefix `/api/v1`.

Up to here, everything would work as normally.

And if you update that local FastAPI source code when you run that Python file again, it will use the fresh version of FastAPI you just edited.

That way, you don't have to "install" your local version to be able to test every change.

!!! note "Technical Details"
    This only happens when you install using this included `requirements.txt` instead of running `pip install fastapi` directly.

In this case you have:

* `ItemsService`
* `UsersService`

### Client Method Names

Right now the generated method names like `createItemItemsPost` don't look very clean:

```TypeScript
ItemsService.createItemItemsPost({name: "Plumbus", price: 5})
```

...that's because the client generator uses the OpenAPI internal **operation ID** for each *path operation*.

We want FastAPI to keep **filtering** the data using the response model.

In the previous example, because the classes were different, we had to use the `response_model` parameter. But that also means that we don't get the support from the editor and tools checking the function return type.

But in most of the cases where we need to do something like this, we want the model just to **filter/remove** some of the data as in this example.

!!! tip
    Don't worry if some of these items about **containers**, Docker, or Kubernetes don't make a lot of sense yet.

    I'll tell you more about container images, Docker, Kubernetes, etc. in a future chapter: [FastAPI in Containers - Docker](docker.md){.internal-link target=_blank}.

You could also define it as a normal function instead of `async def`:

```Python hl_lines="7"
{!../../../docs_src/first_steps/tutorial003.py!}
```

!!! note
    If you don't know the difference, check the [Async: *"In a hurry?"*](../async.md#in-a-hurry){.internal-link target=_blank}.

### Step 5: return the content

```Python hl_lines="8"
{!../../../docs_src/first_steps/tutorial001.py!}

# About HTTPS

It is easy to assume that HTTPS is something that is just "enabled" or not.

But it is way more complex than that.

!!! tip
    If you are in a hurry or don't care, continue with the next sections for step by step instructions to set everything up with different techniques.

To **learn the basics of HTTPS**, from a consumer perspective, check <a href="https://howhttps.works/" class="external-link" target="_blank">https://howhttps.works/</a>.

## More motivation

Check this function, it already has type hints:

```Python hl_lines="1"
{!../../../docs_src/python_types/tutorial003.py!}
```

Because the editor knows the types of the variables, you don't only get completion, you also get error checks:

Now you know that you have to fix it, convert `age` to a string with `str(age)`:

```Python hl_lines="2"

As it is very simple, it's relatively intuitive to learn, although the documentation gets somewhat technical at some points.

It is also commonly used for other applications that don't necessarily need a database, user management, or any of the many features that come pre-built in Django. Although many of these features can be added with plug-ins.

* and in there, find the module `dependencies` (the file at `app/dependencies.py`)...
* and from it, import the function `get_token_header`.

That would refer to some package above `app/`, with its own file `__init__.py`, etc. But we don't have that. So, that would throw an error in our example. 🚨

But now you know how it works, so you can use relative imports in your own apps no matter how complex they are. 🤓
