# FastAPI CLI

**FastAPI CLI** is a command line program `fastapi` that you can use to serve your FastAPI app, manage your FastAPI project, and more.

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:

<div class="termy">

```console

      represent, as a whole, an original work of authorship. For the purposes
      of this License, Derivative Works shall not include works that remain
      separable from, or merely link (or bind by name) to the interfaces of,
      the Work and Derivative Works thereof.

      "Contribution" shall mean any work of authorship, including
      the original version of the Work and any modifications or additions

That documentation will show up in the Swagger UI at `/docs` in your API, and it will let external developers know how to build the *external API*.

This example doesn't implement the callback itself (that could be just a line of code), only the documentation part.

!!! tip
    The actual callback is just an HTTP request.

### Short

It has sensible **defaults** for everything, with optional configurations everywhere. All the parameters can be fine-tuned to do what you need and to define the API you need.

But by default, it all **"just works"**.

### Validation

* Validation for most (or all?) Python **data types**, including:
    * JSON objects (`dict`).

#### From a specific node syslog

The CNI plugins are executed by threads in the `kubelet` process.  The CNI plugins logs end up the syslog
under the `kubelet` process. On systems with `journalctl` the following is an example command line
to view the last 1000 `kubelet` logs via the `less` utility to allow for `vi`-style searching:

```console
$ journalctl -t kubelet -n 1000 | less
```

#### GKE via Stackdriver Log Viewer

    <div class="termy">

    ```console
    $ hypercorn main:app --bind 0.0.0.0:80

    Running on 0.0.0.0:8080 over http (CTRL + C to quit)
    ```

    </div>

!!! note
    The command `uvicorn main:app` refers to:

    * `main`: the file `main.py` (the Python "module").
    * `app`: the object created inside of `main.py` with the line `app = FastAPI()`.

    It is equivalent to:

    ```Python

    `CMD` takes a list of strings, each of these strings is what you would type in the command line separated by spaces.

    This command will be run from the **current working directory**, the same `/code` directory you set above with `WORKDIR /code`.

!!! tip
    Review what each line does by clicking each number bubble in the code. 👆

You should now have a directory structure like:

```
.

Alternatively, if you don't have a way to provide a command line option like `--root-path` or equivalent, you can set the `root_path` parameter when creating your FastAPI app:

```Python hl_lines="3"
{!../../../docs_src/behind_a_proxy/tutorial002.py!}
```

Passing the `root_path` to `FastAPI` would be the equivalent of passing the `--root-path` command line option to Uvicorn or Hypercorn.

### About `root_path`

> TLS certificates via a different domain for your FTP servers you may choose the above command line options.


### Custom Algorithms (SFTP)

Custom algorithms can be specified via command line parameters.
Algorithms are comma separated. 
Note that valid values does not in all cases represent default values.

### Go command {#go-command}

Setting the `GOROOT_FINAL` environment variable no longer has an effect
([#62047](https://go.dev/issue/62047)).
Distributions that install the `go` command to a location other than
`$GOROOT/bin/go` should install a symlink instead of relocating
or copying the `go` binary.

The `go vet` subcommand now includes the
