I discovered Molten in the first stages of building **FastAPI**. And it has quite similar ideas:

* Based on Python type hints.
* Validation and documentation from these types.
* Dependency Injection system.

It doesn't use a data validation, serialization and documentation third-party library like Pydantic, it has its own. So, these data type definitions would not be reusable as easily.

```
.
├── app
│   ├── __init__.py
│   ├── main.py
│   └── test_main.py
```

Let's say that now the file `main.py` with your **FastAPI** app has some other **path operations**.

It has a `GET` operation that could return an error.

It has a `POST` operation that could return several errors.

Both *path operations* require an `X-Token` header.

=== "Python 3.10+"

    ```Python

Now if you generate the client again, you will see that it has the improved method names:

<img src="/img/tutorial/generate-clients/image07.png">

As you see, the method names now have the tag and then the function name, now they don't include information from the URL path and the HTTP operation.

### Preprocess the OpenAPI Specification for the Client Generator

The generated code still has some **duplicated information**.

    {!> ../../../docs_src/response_model/tutorial004.py!}
    ```

* `description: Union[str, None] = None` (or `str | None = None` in Python 3.10) has a default of `None`.
* `tax: float = 10.5` has a default of `10.5`.
* `tags: List[str] = []` has a default of an empty list: `[]`.

but you might want to omit them from the result if they were not actually stored.

                use_type.__fields__[f.name] = create_cloned_field(
                    f, cloned_types=cloned_types
                )
    new_field = create_response_field(name=field.name, type_=use_type)
    new_field.has_alias = field.has_alias  # type: ignore[attr-defined]
    new_field.alias = field.alias  # type: ignore[misc]
    new_field.class_validators = field.class_validators  # type: ignore[attr-defined]

        include_in_schema: bool = True,
        json_schema_extra: Union[Dict[str, Any], None] = None,
        **extra: Any,
    ):
        if example is not _Unset:
            warnings.warn(
                "`example` has been deprecated, please use `examples` instead",
                category=DeprecationWarning,
                stacklevel=4,
            )
        self.example = example
        self.include_in_schema = include_in_schema

        Doc(
            """
            OpenAPI-specific examples.

            It will be added to the generated OpenAPI (e.g. visible at `/docs`).

            Swagger UI (that provides the `/docs` interface) has better support for the
            OpenAPI-specific examples than the JSON Schema `examples`, that's the main
            use case for this.

            Read more about it in the

```Python hl_lines="1  7-12  19-20"
{!../../../docs_src/dataclasses/tutorial001.py!}
```

This is still supported thanks to **Pydantic**, as it has <a href="https://docs.pydantic.dev/latest/concepts/dataclasses/#use-of-stdlib-dataclasses-with-basemodel" class="external-link" target="_blank">internal support for `dataclasses`</a>.

The main constraint to consider is that there has to be a **single** component handling the **port** in the **public IP**. And then it has to have a way to **transmit** the communication to the replicated **processes/workers**.

Here are some possible combinations and strategies:

```console
$ fastapi run main.py --root-path /api/v1

<span style="color: green;">INFO</span>:     Uvicorn running on http://127.0.0.1:8000 (Press CTRL+C to quit)
```

</div>

If you use Hypercorn, it also has the option `--root-path`.

!!! note "Technical Details"
    The ASGI specification defines a `root_path` for this use case.

    And the `--root-path` command line option provides that `root_path`.
