Let's focus on the parameters declared:

* Even though this function is a dependency ("dependable") itself, it also declares another dependency (it "depends" on something else).
    * It depends on the `query_extractor`, and assigns the value returned by it to the parameter `q`.
* It also declares an optional `last_query` cookie, as a `str`.

# `Response` class

You can declare a parameter in a *path operation function* or dependency to be of type `Response` and then you can set data for the response like headers or cookies.

You can also use it directly to create an instance of it and return it from your *path operations*.

You can import it directly from `fastapi`:

```python
from fastapi import Response
```

# Security Tools

When you need to declare dependencies with OAuth2 scopes you use `Security()`.

But you still need to define what is the dependable, the callable that you pass as a parameter to `Depends()` or `Security()`.

There are multiple tools that you can use to create those dependables, and they get integrated into OpenAPI so they are shown in the automatic docs UI, they can be used by automatically generated clients and SDKs, etc.

@GwtCompatible
@ElementTypesAreNonnullByDefault
abstract class CommonPattern {
  public abstract CommonMatcher matcher(CharSequence t);

  public abstract String pattern();

  public abstract int flags();

  // Re-declare this as abstract to force subclasses to override.
  @Override
  public abstract String toString();

  public static CommonPattern compile(String pattern) {
    return Platform.compilePattern(pattern);
  }

operations*

Later, when reading about how to structure bigger applications ([Bigger Applications - Multiple Files](../../tutorial/bigger-applications.md){.internal-link target=_blank}), possibly with multiple files, you will learn how to declare a single `dependencies` parameter for a group of *path operations*....

## `Security()`

For many scenarios, you can handle security (authorization, authentication, etc.) with dependencies, using `Depends()`.

But when you want to also declare OAuth2 scopes, you can use `Security()` instead of `Depends()`.

You can import `Security()` directly from `fastapi`:

```python
from fastapi import Security
```

package com.google.common.util.concurrent;

import com.google.common.annotations.GwtCompatible;
import com.google.common.annotations.J2ktIncompatible;

/// warning | "Aviso"

Você pode declarar vários parâmetros `Form` em uma *operação de caminho*, mas não pode declarar campos `Body` que espera receber como JSON, pois a solicitação terá o corpo codificado usando `application/x-www- form-urlencoded` em vez de `application/json`.

Esta não é uma limitação do **FastAPI**, é parte do protocolo HTTP.

## Recapitulando

   * of the supertype that suggests that implementations are expected to tolerate null. That said, I
   * see calls in Google code that pass a null `dir` to a FilenameFilter.... So let's declare the
   * parameter as non-nullable (since passing null to a FilenameFilter is unsafe in general), but if
   * someone still manages to pass null, let's continue to have the method work.
