## `fastapi dev`

When you run `fastapi dev`, it will run on development mode.

By default, it will have **auto-reload** enabled, so it will automatically reload the server when you make changes to your code. This is resource intensive and could be less stable than without it, you should only use it for development.

!!! tip
    All this might not seem as useful with these simple examples.

    But you will see how useful it is in the chapters about **security**.

    ```

=== "Python 3.8+"

    ```Python hl_lines="3  17"
    {!> ../../../docs_src/path_operation_configuration/tutorial001.py!}
    ```

That status code will be used in the response and will be added to the OpenAPI schema.

!!! note "Technical Details"
    You could also use `from starlette import status`.

You will see a simple page like:

<img src="/img/tutorial/websockets/image01.png">

You can type messages in the input box, and send them:

<img src="/img/tutorial/websockets/image02.png">

And your **FastAPI** application with WebSockets will respond back:

<img src="/img/tutorial/websockets/image03.png">

    ```

In this case, the function parameter `q` will be optional, and will be `None` by default.

!!! check
    Also notice that **FastAPI** is smart enough to notice that the path parameter `item_id` is a path parameter and `q` is not, so, it's a query parameter.

## Query parameter type conversion

You can also declare `bool` types, and they will be converted:

=== "Python 3.10+"

    ```Python hl_lines="7"

This is normally called a **webhook**.

## Webhooks steps

The process normally is that **you define** in your code what is the message that you will send, the **body of the request**.

You also define in some way at which **moments** your app will send those requests or events.

And **your users** define in some way (for example in a web dashboard somewhere) the **URL** where your app should send those requests.

    {!> ../../../docs_src/body_nested_models/tutorial003.py!}
    ```

With this, even if you receive a request with duplicate data, it will be converted to a set of unique items.

And whenever you output that data, even if the source had duplicates, it will be output as a set of unique items.

And it will be annotated / documented accordingly too.

## Nested Models

Each attribute of a Pydantic model has a type.

    ```Python hl_lines="10"
    {!> ../../../docs_src/dependencies/tutorial011.py!}
    ```

In this case, this `__call__` is what **FastAPI** will use to check for additional parameters and sub-dependencies, and this is what will be called to pass a value to the parameter in your *path operation function* later.

## Parameterize the instance

## Global Dependencies

It will:

* Return that status code in the response.
* Document it as such in the OpenAPI schema (and so, in the user interfaces):

!!! note
    Some response codes (see the next section) indicate that the response does not have a body.

    FastAPI knows this, and will produce OpenAPI docs that state there is no response body.
