### Return a Response Directly

The most common case would be [returning a Response directly as explained later in the advanced docs](../advanced/response-directly.md){.internal-link target=_blank}.

```Python hl_lines="8  10-11"
{!> ../../../docs_src/response_model/tutorial003_02.py!}
```

You can declare the type of a path parameter in the function, using standard Python type annotations:

```Python hl_lines="7"
{!../../../docs_src/path_params/tutorial002.py!}
```

In this case, `item_id` is declared to be an `int`.

    This will give you editor support inside of your function, with error checks, completion, etc.

## Proxy with a stripped path prefix

Having a proxy with a stripped path prefix, in this case, means that you could declare a path at `/app` in your code, but then, you add a layer on top (the proxy) that would put your **FastAPI** application under a path like `/api/v1`.

In this case, the original path `/app` would actually be served at `/api/v1/app`.

Even though all your code is written assuming there's just `/app`.

In some cases, you might still have to use Pydantic's version of `dataclasses`. For example, if you have errors with the automatically generated API documentation.

In that case, you can simply swap the standard `dataclasses` with `pydantic.dataclasses`, which is a drop-in replacement:

```{ .python .annotate hl_lines="1  5  8-11  14-17  23-25  28" }
{!../../../docs_src/dataclasses/tutorial003.py!}
```

!!! tip
    The next sections are **not necessarily "advanced"**.

    And it's possible that for your use case, the solution is in one of them.

## Read the Tutorial first

The next sections assume you already read the main [Tutorial - User Guide: Security](../../tutorial/security/index.md){.internal-link target=_blank}.

#### "Schema"

A "schema" is a definition or description of something. Not the code that implements it, but just an abstract description.

#### API "schema"

In this case, <a href="https://github.com/OAI/OpenAPI-Specification" class="external-link" target="_blank">OpenAPI</a> is a specification that dictates how to define a schema of your API.

# Devolver una respuesta directamente

Cuando creas una *operación de path* normalmente puedes devolver cualquier dato: un `dict`, una `list`, un modelo Pydantic, un modelo de base de datos, etc.

Por defecto, **FastAPI** convertiría automáticamente ese valor devuelto a JSON usando el `jsonable_encoder` explicado en [Codificador Compatible JSON](../tutorial/encoder.md){.internal-link target=_blank}.

This way you will be able to have things ordered and grouped correctly for the client code:

<img src="/img/tutorial/generate-clients/image06.png">

In this case you have:

* `ItemsService`
* `UsersService`

### Client Method Names

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

```TypeScript

* `main`: il file `main.py` (il "modulo" Python).
* `app`: l'oggetto creato dentro `main.py` con la riga di codice `app = FastAPI()`.
* `--reload`: ricarica il server se vengono rilevati cambiamenti del codice. Usalo solo durante la fase di sviluppo.

J'y ai ensuite contribué, pour le rendre entièrement compatible avec JSON Schema, pour supporter différentes manières de définir les déclarations de contraintes, et pour améliorer le support des éditeurs (vérifications de type, autocomplétion) sur la base des tests effectués dans plusieurs éditeurs.

Pendant le développement, j'ai également contribué à <a href="https://www.starlette.io/" class="external-link" target="_blank">**Starlette**</a>, l'autre exigence clé.
