# Configurações e Variáveis de Ambiente { #settings-and-environment-variables }

Em muitos casos, sua aplicação pode precisar de configurações externas, por exemplo chaves secretas, credenciais de banco de dados, credenciais para serviços de e-mail, etc.

A maioria dessas configurações é variável (pode mudar), como URLs de banco de dados. E muitas podem ser sensíveis, como segredos.

Por esse motivo, é comum fornecê-las em variáveis de ambiente lidas pela aplicação.

As Python advances, **newer versions** come with improved support for these type annotations and in many cases you won't even need to import and use the `typing` module to declare the type annotations.

If you can choose a more recent version of Python for your project, you will be able to take advantage of that extra simplicity.

#### Deploy to other cloud providers { #deploy-to-other-cloud-providers }

FastAPI is open source and based on standards. You can deploy FastAPI apps to any cloud provider you choose.

Follow your cloud provider's guides to deploy FastAPI apps with them. 🤓

## Recap { #recap }

* Import `FastAPI`.
* Create an `app` instance.

 *
 * {@snippet :
 * FluentFuture<UserName> userName =
 *     ClosingFuture.submit(
 *             closer -> closer.eventuallyClose(database.newTransaction(), closingExecutor),
 *             executor)
 *         .transformAsync((closer, transaction) -> transaction.queryClosingFuture("..."), executor)
 *         .transform((closer, result) -> result.get("userName"), directExecutor())

   * we've chosen to instead use a signature that benefits existing users -- and is still safe.
   *
   * For convertAll, I haven't looked as closely at *how* much existing users benefit, so we should
   * keep an eye out for problems that new users encounter. Note also that convertAll could support

    ```

 *  New: Make the content-type header optional for request bodies.
 *  New: `Response.isSuccessful()` is a convenient API to check response codes.
 *  New: The response body can now be read outside of the callback. Response
    bodies must always be closed, otherwise they will leak connections!
 *  New: APIs to create multipart request bodies (`MultipartBuilder`) and form
    encoding bodies (`FormEncodingBuilder`).

     *
     * <ul>
     *   <li>For an empty list, it is 1 (base case).
     *   <li>When r numbers are added to a list of n-r elements, the number of permutations is
     *       increased by a factor of (n choose r).
     * </ul>
     */

        List<E> sortedInputList, Comparator<? super E> comparator) {
      int permutations = 1;

For a particular application plugin there will be a declarative descriptor for that plugin type.

h3. Some general notes on Nexus

The plugin metadata:
* the plugin class
* UI to contribute
* what JS to hook into the UI
* what resources to load into the UI

 *
 * <p>This class serializes execution of <i>submitted</i> tasks but not any <i>listeners</i> of
 * those tasks.
 *
 * <p>Submitted tasks have a happens-before order as defined in the Java Language Specification.
 * Tasks execute with the same happens-before order that the function calls to {@link #submit} and
 * {@link #submitAsync} that submitted those tasks had.
 *
 * <p>This class has limited support for cancellation and other "early completions":

  /**
   * Keeps track of metadata like the number of hash table bits and modifications of this data
   * structure (to make it possible to throw ConcurrentModificationException in the iterator). Note
   * that we choose not to make this volatile, so we do less of a "best effort" to track such
   * errors, for better performance.
