Nevertheless, we can declare the expected schema for the request body.

### Custom OpenAPI content type

Using this same trick, you could use a Pydantic model to define the JSON Schema that is then included in the custom OpenAPI schema section for the *path operation*.

And you could do this even if the data type in the request is not JSON.

* `limit`: with a value of `10`

As they are part of the URL, they are "naturally" strings.

But when you declare them with Python types (in the example above, as `int`), they are converted to that type and validated against it.

All the same process that applied for path parameters also applies for query parameters:

* Editor support (obviously)

# See the License for the specific language governing permissions and
# limitations under the License.

# Init script downloads or updates envoy and the go dependencies. Called from Makefile, which sets
# the needed environment variables.

set -o errexit
set -o nounset
set -o pipefail

if [[ "${TARGET_OUT_LINUX:-}" == "" ]]; then

* `seek(offset)`: Goes to the byte position `offset` (`int`) in the file.
    * E.g., `await myfile.seek(0)` would go to the start of the file.
    * This is especially useful if you run `await myfile.read()` once and then need to read the contents again.
* `close()`: Closes the file.

As all these methods are `async` methods, you need to "await" them.

For example, inside of an `async` *path operation function* you can get the contents with:

Here we declare the setting `openapi_url` with the same default of `"/openapi.json"`.

And then we use it when creating the `FastAPI` app.

Then you could disable OpenAPI (including the UI docs) by setting the environment variable `OPENAPI_URL` to the empty string, like:

<div class="termy">

```console
$ OPENAPI_URL= uvicorn main:app

<span style="color: green;">INFO</span>:     Uvicorn running on http://127.0.0.1:8000 (Press CTRL+C to quit)

   * @param unit the time unit of the timeout argument
   * @throws TimeoutException if the service has not reached the given state within the deadline
   * @throws IllegalStateException if the service reaches a state from which it is not possible to
   *     enter the {@link State#RUNNING RUNNING} state. e.g. if the {@code state} is {@code
   *     State#TERMINATED} when this method is called then this will throw an IllegalStateException.

        # We must fetch at least the immediate parents so that if this is
        # a pull request then we can checkout the head.
        fetch-depth: 2

    # If this run was triggered by a pull request event, then checkout
    # the head of the pull request instead of the merge commit.

And then, open the docs for the sub-application, at <a href="http://127.0.0.1:8000/subapi/docs" class="external-link" target="_blank">http://127.0.0.1:8000/subapi/docs</a>.

You will see the automatic API docs for the sub-application, including only its own _path operations_, all under the correct sub-path prefix `/subapi`:

There are some extra features to handle security apart from the ones covered in the [Tutorial - User Guide: Security](../../tutorial/security/index.md){.internal-link target=_blank}.
