## FastAPI features { #fastapi-features }

**FastAPI** gives you the following:

### Based on open standards { #based-on-open-standards }

from fastapi import APIRouter, FastAPI
from fastapi.testclient import TestClient

router = APIRouter()

sub_router = APIRouter()

app = FastAPI()


@sub_router.get("/")
def read_item():
    return {"id": "foo"}


router.include_router(sub_router, prefix="/items")

app.include_router(router)

client = TestClient(app)


def test_path_operation():
    response = client.get("/items/")

from fastapi import FastAPI, Request
from fastapi.testclient import TestClient

app = FastAPI(openapi_prefix="/api/v1")


@app.get("/app")
def read_main(request: Request):
    return {"message": "Hello World", "root_path": request.scope.get("root_path")}


client = TestClient(app)


def test_main():
    response = client.get("/app")
    assert response.status_code == 200

Read more about it in the [FastAPI docs about Response Status Code](https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/tutorial/response-status-code/).

## Example

```python
from fastapi import FastAPI, status

app = FastAPI()


@app.get("/items/", status_code=status.HTTP_418_IM_A_TEAPOT)
def read_items():
    return [{"name": "Plumbus"}, {"name": "Portal Gun"}]
```

from typing import Union

from fastapi import FastAPI
from fastapi.responses import FileResponse
from pydantic import BaseModel


class Item(BaseModel):
    id: str
    value: str


app = FastAPI()


@app.get(
    "/items/{item_id}",
    response_model=Item,
    responses={
        200: {
            "content": {"image/png": {}},
            "description": "Return the JSON item or an image.",
        }
    },

Read more about it in the [FastAPI docs for Custom Response - HTML, Stream, File, others](https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/advanced/custom-response/).

You can import them directly from `fastapi.responses`:

```python
from fastapi.responses import (
    FileResponse,
    HTMLResponse,
    JSONResponse,
    ORJSONResponse,
    PlainTextResponse,

from fastapi import FastAPI
from fastapi.testclient import TestClient

from .utils import needs_py310

def test_typing():
    types = {
        list[int]: [1, 2, 3],
        dict[str, list[int]]: {"a": [1, 2, 3], "b": [4, 5, 6]},
        set[int]: [1, 2, 3],  # `set` is converted to `list`
        tuple[int, ...]: [1, 2, 3],  # `tuple` is converted to `list`
    }
    for test_type, expect in types.items():

并从以下对象中提取数据：

* 路径参数
* 请求头
* Cookies
* 等

**FastAPI** 使用这种方式验证数据、转换数据，并自动生成 API 文档。

但有时，我们也需要直接访问 `Request` 对象。

## `Request` 对象的细节

实际上，**FastAPI** 的底层是 **Starlette**，**FastAPI** 只不过是在  **Starlette** 顶层提供了一些工具，所以能直接使用 Starlette 的  <a href="https://www.starlette.dev/requests/" class="external-link" target="_blank">`Request`</a> 对象。

但直接从 `Request` 对象提取数据时（例如，读取请求体），**FastAPI** 不会验证、转换和存档数据（为 API 文档使用 OpenAPI）。
