After you have tests, then you can upgrade the **FastAPI** version to a more recent one, and make sure that all your code is working correctly by running your tests.

If everything is working, or after you make the necessary changes, and all your tests are passing, then you can pin your `fastapi` to that new recent version.

## About Starlette { #about-starlette }

You shouldn't pin the version of `starlette`.

### Create your feature branch

Before making code changes, make sure you create a separate branch for these changes

```
git checkout -b my-new-feature
```

### Test MinIO server changes

After your code changes, make sure

- To add test cases for the new code. If you have questions about how to do it, please ask on our [Slack](https://slack.min.io) channel.
- To run `make verifiers`

You must agree to the terms of [Developer Certificate of Origin](https://developercertificate.org/) by signing off your commits. We automatically verify that all commit messages contain a `Signed-off-by:` line with your email address. We can only accept PRs that have all commits signed off.

If you didn't sign off your commits before creating the pull request, you can fix that after the fact.

To sign off a single commit:

## Run your code with your debugger { #run-your-code-with-your-debugger }

Because you are running the Uvicorn server directly from your code, you can call your Python program (your FastAPI application) directly from the debugger.

---

For example, in Visual Studio Code, you can:

* Go to the "Debug" panel.
* "Add configuration...".
* Select "Python"

Follow your cloud provider's guides to deploy FastAPI apps with them. 🤓

## Deploy your own server { #deploy-your-own-server }

The same way you use `Body`, `Query`, etc. with your *path operation function* parameters, use `Depends` with a new parameter:

{* ../../docs_src/dependencies/tutorial001_an_py310.py hl[13,18] *}

Although you use `Depends` in the parameters of your function the same way you use `Body`, `Query`, etc, `Depends` works a bit differently.

You only give `Depends` a single parameter.

    subject to change. They can be modified in any way, or even removed, at any
    time. If your code is a library itself (i.e., it is used on the CLASSPATH of
    users outside your own control), you should not use beta APIs unless you
    [repackage] them. **If your code is a library, we strongly recommend using
    the [Guava Beta Checker] to ensure that you do not use any `@Beta` APIs!**

# Request Body { #request-body }

When you need to send data from a client (let's say, a browser) to your API, you send it as a **request body**.

A **request** body is data sent by the client to your API. A **response** body is the data your API sends to the client.

#### Running sanity check

If you have Docker installed on your system, you can perform a sanity check on
your changes by running the command:

```bash
tensorflow/tools/ci_build/ci_build.sh CPU tensorflow/tools/ci_build/ci_sanity.sh
```

This will catch most license, Python coding style and BUILD file issues that
may exist in your changes.

#### Running unit tests

Your server(s) is (are) a **resource**, you can consume or **utilize**, with your programs, the computation time on the CPUs, and the RAM memory available.

How much of the system resources do you want to be consuming/utilizing? It might be easy to think "not much", but in reality, you will probably want to consume **as much as possible without crashing**.
