Not to be confused with FastAPI framework!

This is a toy-project to showcase how to use Sanic and PonyORM together.

Sanic is one of the fastest microframeworks for Python. It utilizes async/await syntax.

Pony is the most pythonic ORM. It translates generators and lambdas to optimized SQL. It still needs some features to be production-ready (e.g. migrations) but it's very convenient and fast. Unfortunately it also doesn't support async/await syntax yet.

Poetry is the smartest Python manager for packages and virtualenvs.

You'll need poetry:

pip install poetry

Then clone this repository and enter created directory. Inside it run:

poetry install

Poetry will create a virtualenv and install all dependencies. Now you can activate the virtualenv:

poetry shell

Please refer to Poetry documentation for further reading.

Example project uses docker-compose.

docker-compose up --build

The server should run on http://localhost:8888/

You'll need the Development set up as described above. Start the database

docker-compose up -d postgres

Then you can run tests:

poetry run pytest

Remember to turn database off after testing:

docker-compose down
