!!! info "`@decorator` Info"
    That `@something` syntax in Python is called a "decorator".

    You put it on top of a function. Like a pretty decorative hat (I guess that's where the term came from).

    A "decorator" takes the function below and does something with it.

    "servers": [
        {
            "url": "/api/v1"
        }
    ],
    "paths": {
            // More stuff here
    }
}
```

In this example, the "Proxy" could be something like **Traefik**. And the server would be something like FastAPI CLI with **Uvicorn**, running your FastAPI application.

### Providing the `root_path`

To achieve this, you can use the command line option `--root-path` like:

<div class="termy">

We also saw that HTTPS is normally provided by a component **external** to your application server, a **TLS Termination Proxy**.

And there has to be something in charge of **renewing the HTTPS certificates**, it could be the same component or it could be something different.

### Example Tools for HTTPS

Some of the tools you could use as a TLS Termination Proxy are:

* Traefik

But it's not possible to have a running container without **at least one running process**. If the main process stops, the container stops.

## Build a Docker Image for FastAPI

Okay, let's build something now! 🚀

I'll show you how to build a **Docker image** for FastAPI **from scratch**, based on the **official Python** image.

This is what you would want to do in **most cases**, for example:

    ```Python hl_lines="2  5-8  11"
    {!> ../../../docs_src/settings/tutorial001_pv1.py!}
    ```
