FastTask

FastTask is a toy task tracker app written in FastAPI with Tortoise ORM

Run

With docker-compose

To simply run the app, this should be enough:

docker compose up

If major change happened (e.g. dependency added), append --build flag.

Manually

For running using .env, while at fasttask/ run:

python -m app.main

For running with uvicorn directly, while at fasttask/ run:

uvicorn app.main:app --host localhost --port 8080

For hot-reloading mode specify --reload.

Tip: absolute imports won't work if we start at the directory that is root package or some directory within it. We must run it at root package's parent.
