### Run it

Run the server with:

<div class="termy">

```console
$ fastapi dev main.py

# Build state model

The Gradle daemon tracks state for various elements. These are arranged in a hierarchy:

```mermaid

  process --> session
  
  build_tree["build tree"]
  session --> build_tree
  
  build1["root build"]
  build_tree --> build1
  
  project1["root project"]
  build1 --> project1
  
  project2["project"]

- one end of the socket is in the application pod
- and the other end is in ztunnel's pod

and setting up iptables rules to funnel traffic thru that socket "tube" to ztunnel and back.

This effectively behaves like ztunnel is an in-pod sidecar, without actually requiring the injection of ztunnel as a sidecar into the pod manifest, or mutatating the application pod in any way.

This is normally called a **webhook**.

## Webhooks steps

The process normally is that **you define** in your code what is the message that you will send, the **body of the request**.

You also define in some way at which **moments** your app will send those requests or events.

And **your users** define in some way (for example in a web dashboard somewhere) the **URL** where your app should send those requests.

## WebSockets client

### In production

In your production system, you probably have a frontend created with a modern framework like React, Vue.js or Angular.

And to communicate using WebSockets with your backend you would probably use your frontend's utilities.

Or you might have a native mobile application that communicates with your WebSocket backend directly, in native code.

### Tested

* 100% <abbr title="The amount of code that is automatically tested">test coverage</abbr>.
* 100% <abbr title="Python type annotations, with this your editor and external tools can give you better support">type annotated</abbr> code base.
* Used in production applications.

So, what we will do next is add the code to document how that *external API* should look like to receive the callback from *your API*.

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*.
