## Mounting a **FastAPI** application

"Mounting" means adding a completely "independent" application in a specific path, that then takes care of handling everything under that path, with the _path operations_ declared in that sub-application.

### Top-level application

First, create the main, top-level, **FastAPI** application, and its *path operations*:

class ResponseLevel0(JSONResponse):
    media_type = "application/x-level-0"


class ResponseLevel1(JSONResponse):
    media_type = "application/x-level-1"


class ResponseLevel2(JSONResponse):
    media_type = "application/x-level-2"


class ResponseLevel3(JSONResponse):
    media_type = "application/x-level-3"


class ResponseLevel4(JSONResponse):
    media_type = "application/x-level-4"

                            "description": "Successful Response",
                            "content": {"application/json": {"schema": {}}},
                        },
                        "422": {
                            "description": "Validation Error",
                            "content": {
                                "application/json": {
                                    "schema": {

		{
			name:     "1",
			metadata: map[string]string{"content-type": "application/octet-stream", "etag": "de75a98baf2c6aef435b57dd0fc33c86", "x-amz-storage-class": "STANDARD"},
			want:     map[string]string{"content-type": "application/octet-stream", "etag": "de75a98baf2c6aef435b57dd0fc33c86"},
		},
		{
			name:     "2",

  public void testAddDelayedShutdownHook_success() throws InterruptedException {
    TestApplication application = new TestApplication();
    ExecutorService service = mock(ExecutorService.class);
    application.addDelayedShutdownHook(service, 2, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
    verify(service, Mockito.never()).shutdown();
    application.shutdown();
    InOrder shutdownFirst = Mockito.inOrder(service);
    shutdownFirst.verify(service).shutdown();

### What is "Mounting"

"Mounting" means adding a complete "independent" application in a specific path, that then takes care of handling all the sub-paths.

This is different from using an `APIRouter` as a mounted application is completely independent. The OpenAPI and docs from your main application won't include anything from the mounted application, etc.

[19511] [INFO] Started server process [19511]
[19511] [INFO] Waiting for application startup.
[19511] [INFO] Application startup complete.
[19513] [INFO] Started server process [19513]
[19513] [INFO] Waiting for application startup.
[19513] [INFO] Application startup complete.
[19514] [INFO] Started server process [19514]
[19514] [INFO] Waiting for application startup.
[19514] [INFO] Application startup complete.
[19515] [INFO] Started server process [19515]

The client will get a **500 Internal Server Error** for that request, but the application will continue working for the next requests instead of just crashing completely.

### Bigger Errors - Crashes

Nevertheless, there might be cases where we write some code that **crashes the entire application** making Uvicorn and Python crash. 💥

# Déploiement

Le déploiement d'une application **FastAPI** est relativement simple.

## Que signifie le déploiement

**Déployer** une application signifie effectuer les étapes nécessaires pour la rendre **disponible pour les
utilisateurs**.

Pour une **API Web**, cela implique normalement de la placer sur une **machine distante**, avec un **programme serveur**
