So, a Python class is also a **callable**.

Then, in **FastAPI**, you could use a Python class as a dependency.

What FastAPI actually checks is that it is a "callable" (function, class or anything else) and the parameters defined.

If you pass a "callable" as a dependency in **FastAPI**, it will analyze the parameters for that "callable", and process them in the same way as the parameters for a *path operation function*. Including sub-dependencies.

In this case, you would accept any `dict` as long as it has `int` keys with `float` values:

{* ../../docs_src/body_nested_models/tutorial009_py39.py hl[7] *}

/// tip

Keep in mind that JSON only supports `str` as keys.

But Pydantic has automatic data conversion.

The same as we were doing before in the *path operation* directly, our new dependency `get_current_user` will receive a `token` as a `str` from the sub-dependency `oauth2_scheme`:

{* ../../docs_src/security/tutorial002_an_py310.py hl[25] *}

## Get the user { #get-the-user }

`get_current_user` will use a (fake) utility function we created, that takes a token as a `str` and returns our Pydantic `User` model:

**Requests** is a library to *interact* with APIs (as a client), while **FastAPI** is a library to *build* APIs (as a server).

They are, more or less, at opposite ends, complementing each other.

Requests has a very simple and intuitive design, it's very easy to use, with sensible defaults. But at the same time, it's very powerful and customizable.

That's why, as said in the official website:

For this, we use `security_scopes.scopes`, that contains a `list` with all these scopes as `str`.

{* ../../docs_src/security/tutorial005_an_py310.py hl[130:136] *}

## Dependency tree and scopes { #dependency-tree-and-scopes }

Let's review again this dependency tree and the scopes.

/// warning

Notice that `Field` is imported directly from `pydantic`, not from `fastapi` as are all the rest (`Query`, `Path`, `Body`, etc).

///

## Declare model attributes { #declare-model-attributes }

You can then use `Field` with model attributes:

{* ../../docs_src/body_fields/tutorial001_an_py310.py hl[11:14] *}

`Field` works the same way as `Query`, `Path` and `Body`, it has all the same parameters, etc.

{* ../../docs_src/dependencies/tutorial011_an_py39.py hl[18] *}

And that way we are able to "parameterize" our dependency, that now has `"bar"` inside of it, as the attribute `checker.fixed_content`.

## Use the instance as a dependency { #use-the-instance-as-a-dependency }

---

If you just don't know, use normal `def`.

---

**Note**: You can mix `def` and `async def` in your *path operation functions* as much as you need and define each one using the best option for you. FastAPI will do the right thing with them.

Anyway, in any of the cases above, FastAPI will still work asynchronously and be extremely fast.

* Check if there is an optional query parameter named `q` (as in `http://127.0.0.1:8000/items/foo?q=somequery`) for `GET` requests.
    * As the `q` parameter is declared with `= None`, it is optional.
    * Without the `None` it would be required (as is the body in the case with `PUT`).
* For `PUT` requests to `/items/{item_id}`, read the body as JSON:
    * Check that it has a required attribute `name` that should be a `str`.
