example workflow

Welcome to the FastAPI-Docker-GitHub-Actions Lab! This repository serves as an educational example of a CI/CD project that demonstrates the usage of GitHub Actions for deploying a simple FastAPI server. Key components include:

• Source Code: Python Runtime
• Dependency Management: Python Poetry
• Web Framework: FastAPI
• Containerization Tools: Docker and Docker-Compose
• Testing: PyTest Framework and Coverage
• Artifact Repository: DockerHub
• Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD): GitHub Actions

The core idea is to have a CI/CD pipeline that illustrates the automation with Continuous Integration, however, you can follow these steps to configure/run the project locally:

Begin by cloning this repository to your local machine:

git clone https://github.com/san99tiago/fastapi-docker-github-actions
cd fastapi-docker-github-actions

To manage Python dependencies and create a virtual environment, install Poetry following the instructions for your preferred installation method:

• https://python-poetry.org/docs/

Once Poetry is installed, execute the following commands for its setup:

poetry shell
poetry install

To run the FastAPI server with Uvicorn, use the following command:

poe fastapi-local

For an easy way to run the FastAPI server as a Docker container using Docker-Compose, use the following commands:

# Start the service
poe fastapi-docker-up
# Stop the service
poe fastapi-docker-down

After running the server using the previous commands, open your preferred tool for making API requests and try the following REST-API endpoints:

• [GET]: http://127.0.0.1:8000/
• [GET]: http://127.0.0.1:8000/status

A big thank you to all the dedicated contributors who have made the open-source projects used in this repository possible.
