But then we get a `dict` in the parameter `commons` of the *path operation function*.

And we know that editors can't provide a lot of support (like completion) for `dict`s, because they can't know their keys and value types.

We can do better...

## What makes a dependency

Up to now you have seen dependencies declared as functions.

```

////

/// info

Notice that we are only declaring one dependency in the *path operation function*, the `query_or_cookie_extractor`.

But **FastAPI** will know that it has to solve `query_extractor` first, to pass the results of that to `query_or_cookie_extractor` while calling it.

///

```mermaid
graph TB

query_extractor(["query_extractor"])

    if (mapEntryBelowToTruncate != null) {
      // we know ( [
      RangeMapEntry<K, V> rangeMapEntry = mapEntryBelowToTruncate.getValue();
      if (rangeMapEntry.getUpperBound().compareTo(rangeToRemove.lowerBound) > 0) {
        // we know ( [ )
        if (rangeMapEntry.getUpperBound().compareTo(rangeToRemove.upperBound) > 0) {
          // we know ( [ ] ), so insert the range ] ) back into the map --

    if (mapEntryBelowToTruncate != null) {
      // we know ( [
      RangeMapEntry<K, V> rangeMapEntry = mapEntryBelowToTruncate.getValue();
      if (rangeMapEntry.getUpperBound().compareTo(rangeToRemove.lowerBound) > 0) {
        // we know ( [ )
        if (rangeMapEntry.getUpperBound().compareTo(rangeToRemove.upperBound) > 0) {
          // we know ( [ ] ), so insert the range ] ) back into the map --

////

This dependency will provide a `str` that is assigned to the parameter `token` of the *path operation function*.

**FastAPI** will know that it can use this dependency to define a "security scheme" in the OpenAPI schema (and the automatic API docs).

/// info | "Technical Details"

	// other fields such as expiry etc.
	return claims.Valid()
}

// ParseUnverifiedStandardClaims - WARNING: Don't use this method unless you know what you're doing
//
// This method parses the token but doesn't validate the signature. It's only
// ever useful in cases where you know the signature is valid (because it has
// been checked previously in the stack) and you want to extract values from
// it.

FastAPI knows this, and will produce OpenAPI docs that state there is no response body.

///

## About HTTP status codes

/// note

If you already know what HTTP status codes are, skip to the next section.

///

In HTTP, you send a numeric status code of 3 digits as part of the response.

////

The query parameter `q` is of type `Union[str, None]` (or `str | None` in Python 3.10), that means that it's of type `str` but could also be `None`, and indeed, the default value is `None`, so FastAPI will know it's not required.

/// note

FastAPI will know that the value of `q` is not required because of the default value `= None`.

The `Union` in `Union[str, None]` will allow your editor to give you better support and detect errors.
