There is a script that you can run that will format and clean all your code:

<div class="termy">

```console
$ bash scripts/format.sh
```

</div>

It will also auto-sort all your imports.

## Tests

There is a script that you can run locally to test all the code and generate coverage reports in HTML:

<div class="termy">

```console
$ bash scripts/test-cov-html.sh
```

</div>

## Install `WebSockets` { #install-websockets }

Make sure you create a [virtual environment](../virtual-environments.md){.internal-link target=_blank}, activate it, and install `websockets`:

<div class="termy">

```console
$ pip install websockets

---> 100%
```

</div>

## WebSockets client { #websockets-client }

### In production { #in-production }

<div class="termy">

```console
$ python myapp.py
```

</div>

but is not called when another file imports it, like in:

```Python
from myapp import app
```

#### More details { #more-details }

Let's say your file is named `myapp.py`.

If you run it with:

<div class="termy">

```console
$ python myapp.py
```

</div>

All the code blocks can be copied and used directly (they are actually tested Python files).

To run any of the examples, copy the code to a file `main.py`, and start `fastapi dev` with:

<div class="termy">

```console
$ <font color="#4E9A06">fastapi</font> dev <u style="text-decoration-style:solid">main.py</u>

# Run a Server Manually { #run-a-server-manually }

## Use the `fastapi run` Command { #use-the-fastapi-run-command }

In short, use `fastapi run` to serve your FastAPI application:

<div class="termy">

```console
$ <font color="#4E9A06">fastapi</font> run <u style="text-decoration-style:solid">main.py</u>
