## What is Erasure Code?

## Architecture

Expansion of ellipses and choice of erasure sets based on this expansion is an automated process in MinIO. Here are some of the details of our underlying erasure coding behavior.

- Erasure coding used by MinIO is [Reed-Solomon](https://github.com/klauspost/reedsolomon) erasure coding scheme, which has a total shard maximum of 256 i.e 128 data and 128 parity. MinIO design goes beyond this limitation by doing some practical architecture choices.

Doing this provides the following specific benefits:
- **Reduce the API surface** - We no longer need to maintain two methods.
- **Consistency** - All languages have consistent access to the same APIs and ergonomics in the DSL.
- **Reduce the size of the Gradle distribution** - We no longer need to carry multiple standard libraries for different languages.

## Decision

   * the implementation will need to be revisited to support a more flexible rule.
   */
  private fun assertWildcardRule(rule: String) {
    check(rule.startsWith(WILDCARD_CHAR)) {
      """Wildcard Assertion Failure: '$rule'
A wildcard rule was added with a wildcard that is not in leftmost position! We'll need to change the ${PublicSuffixDatabase::class.java.name} to handle this."""
    }

  DefaultExpressionEvaluator used within. See the above discussion for more
  on why this evaluator is bad. We need to provide either an alternative
  implementation under a different roleHint, or else replace the
  BasicComponentConfigurator.

  We may need to define a new lifecycle/phase to contextualize a mojo right
  before it's used, and reset it's state afterward. Up to now, the approach

          <editable>true</editable>
        </parameter>
      </parameters>

- we need to know what came from the POM, and validate those
- plugin in any default values
- check to see if anything is missing

Up to now, you have been declaring the parts of the request that you need with their types.

Taking data from:

* The path as parameters.
* Headers.
* Cookies.
* etc.

And by doing so, **FastAPI** is validating that data, converting it and generating documentation for your API automatically.

But there are situations where you might need to access the `Request` object directly.

## Details about the `Request` object

Use the `TestClient` object the same way as you do with `httpx`.

Write simple `assert` statements with the standard Python expressions that you need to check (again, standard `pytest`).

```Python hl_lines="2  12  15-18"

```

!!! tip
    Notice that the testing functions are normal `def`, not `async def`.

    // it might need this accessor's bytecode.
    //
    // If an accessor function is defined in a different module,
    // IDE tries to acquire its bytecode via the index, however,
    // the index doesn't cover classfiles from compiler output,
    // so the lowering fails.
    //
    // To solve the problem, we need to find all delegated properties with inline accessors
