# Sub-dependencies

You can create dependencies that have **sub-dependencies**.

They can be as **deep** as you need them to be.

**FastAPI** will take care of solving them.

## First dependency "dependable"

You could create a first dependency ("dependable") like:

//// tab | Python 3.10+

```Python hl_lines="8-9"
{!> ../../docs_src/dependencies/tutorial005_an_py310.py!}
```

////

//// tab | Python 3.9+

Downloading and installing the package dependencies **could take minutes**, but using the **cache** would **take seconds** at most.

And as you would be building the container image again and again during development to check that your code changes are working, there's a lot of accumulated time this would save.

So you wait for your crush to finish the story (finish the current work ⏯ / task being processed 🤓), smile gently and say that you are going for the burgers ⏸.

Let's first focus on the dependency.

It is just a function that can take all the same parameters that a *path operation function* can take:

{* ../../docs_src/dependencies/tutorial001_an_py310.py hl[8:9] *}

That's it.

**2 lines**.

And it has the same shape and structure that all your *path operation functions* have.

You don't have to worry about performance when including routers.

This will take microseconds and will only happen at startup.

So it won't affect performance. ⚡

### Include an `APIRouter` with a custom `prefix`, `tags`, `responses`, and `dependencies`

Now, let's imagine your organization gave you the `app/internal/admin.py` file.

	//
	// When Writer.WriteHeader is called, the contents of Xattrs will take
	// precedence over those in PAXRecords.
	//
	// Deprecated: Use PAXRecords instead.
	Xattrs map[string]string

	// PAXRecords is a map of PAX extended header records.
	//
	// User-defined records should have keys of the following form:
	//	VENDOR.keyword
