- **Each object is written to a single EC set, and therefore is spread over no more than 16 drives.**
- **All the nodes running distributed MinIO setup are recommended to be homogeneous, i.e. same operating system, same number of drives and same network interconnects.**

### Testing file { #testing-file }

Then you could have a file `test_main.py` with your tests. It could live on the same Python package (the same directory with a `__init__.py` file):

``` hl_lines="5"
.
├── app
│   ├── __init__.py
│   ├── main.py
│   └── test_main.py
```

Because this file is in the same package, you can use relative imports to import the object `app` from the `main` module (`main.py`):

## Declare model attributes { #declare-model-attributes }

You can then use `Field` with model attributes:

{* ../../docs_src/body_fields/tutorial001_an_py310.py hl[11:14] *}

`Field` works the same way as `Query`, `Path` and `Body`, it has all the same parameters, etc.

/// note | Technical Details

# Cookie Parameters { #cookie-parameters }

You can define Cookie parameters the same way you define `Query` and `Path` parameters.

## Import `Cookie` { #import-cookie }

First import `Cookie`:

{* ../../docs_src/cookie_params/tutorial001_an_py310.py hl[3] *}

## Declare `Cookie` parameters { #declare-cookie-parameters }

Then declare the cookie parameters using the same structure as with `Path` and `Query`.

You would have **one single `engine` object** for all your code to connect to the same database.

{* ../../docs_src/sql_databases/tutorial001_an_py310.py ln[14:18] hl[14:15,17:18] *}

Using `check_same_thread=False` allows FastAPI to use the same SQLite database in different threads. This is necessary as **one single request** could use **more than one thread** (for example in dependencies).

## Include the same router multiple times with different `prefix` { #include-the-same-router-multiple-times-with-different-prefix }

You can also use `.include_router()` multiple times with the *same* router using different prefixes.

This could be useful, for example, to expose the same API under different prefixes, e.g. `/api/v1` and `/api/latest`.

But in our code we are actually using `secrets.compare_digest()`.

In short, it will take the same time to compare `stanleyjobsox` to `stanleyjobson` than it takes to compare `johndoe` to `stanleyjobson`. And the same for the password.

That way, using `secrets.compare_digest()` in your application code, it will be safe against this whole range of security attacks.

    @Test
    @DisplayName("MonotonicClock singleton instance should always return the same instance")
    void testSingletonInstance() {
        MonotonicClock clock1 = MonotonicClock.get();
        MonotonicClock clock2 = MonotonicClock.get();

        assertSame(clock1, clock2, "Multiple calls to get() should return the same instance");
    }

    @Test
    @DisplayName("MonotonicClock should always use UTC timezone")

query_or_cookie_extractor(["query_or_cookie_extractor"])

read_query["/items/"]

query_extractor --> query_or_cookie_extractor --> read_query
```

## Using the same dependency multiple times { #using-the-same-dependency-multiple-times }

If one of your dependencies is declared multiple times for the same *path operation*, for example, multiple dependencies have a common sub-dependency, **FastAPI** will know to call that sub-dependency only once per request.

After that, all of the processing logic is the same.

But because of our changes in `GzipRequest.body`, the request body will be automatically decompressed when it is loaded by **FastAPI** when needed.

## Accessing the request body in an exception handler { #accessing-the-request-body-in-an-exception-handler }
