[@worzell5169]

43:49 for anyone wondering, he changed the function parameters to be def get_item(name: str = Query(None, title="Name", description="Name of item.", max_length=10, min_length=2)):

[@s4lm._179]

Just when i thought of learning about API, there comes Tim

[@manojkumark3934]

me to

[@55.yashgoyal40]

Same bro

[@tsoraizw]

I bet he can read minds😂😂

[@mike_vahemoubayed8099]

Same!

[@Julien-hg8jh]

Same !

[@thegimel]

Great video Tim! Would love to see a follow-up video where you show how to build a web micro-service (using FastAPI) for machine learning model inference

[@martinag6607]

I finally understand API and all thanks to you, Tim, thank you so so much for making these! Super grateful for your sharing of knowledge!! Thanks and stay so cool :)

[@ajiteshkumar]

Tim is always here the same second i want to learn something. Thank you!

[@Musava]

Even though i know most basic and intermediate stuff, i still watch every single second of this video to not miss any information

[@kenny-kvibe]

This was epic, I was watching for 3 hours straight, and I've implemented a chilld class of FastAPI with a function that saves data into file.json when requests succeed. Great module I love it ! & great video, thank you very much! All that is missing is the cors, xss security things, let the research continue :D

[@SeattleDataGuy]

I have been looking to get into FastAPI and compare it to Flask(which is what I usually use for a lot of dev). This was a great in depth intro and more! Thank you.

[@richisgood22]

I wish I could upvote you more! Thank you so much for all of the help you've provided me over the years. You're amazing!

[@user-ke4yx6uw1r]

I have been working with Django and thinking about to give a try with fast api and flask. And here comes Tim with a fast api tutorial, Thank you Tim

[@pauldickman4379]

The asterisk part just cracks me up. One of those things. Super great tutorial btw, thank you for taking so much time to make it high quality. Still holds up well 2 years later and that is hard to do nowadays.

[@joddden]

I absolutely love you man, my genius hero! You coincidentally have videos on things I need for work AND things I'm just interested in that I thought was way too specific to me, like the NEAT series.

[@nomoremuda]

This is fantastic, Tim, I needed this for my current projects

[@pinakastra]

Just what I wanted to learn and that too in short n crisp (also enough detailed to get started). Thanks

[@Nick-kd9no]

best short intro to FastAPI. Thank you Tim

[@bh3553]

Somewhere around 25 minutes, your face cam is over the relevant code. Still very informative

[@arunavamaulik19]

@Josh Yorko This comment needs to be pinned!

[@JeffreyWagner7]

Better to just get rid of the face cam anyhow. Why do we need to see anyone's face between intro and outro?

[@Studywise_io]

def get_item(item_id: int = Path(description="the id of the item you want to view", gt=0) ): return inventory[item_id]

[@Sciencedoneright]

Dude. You're reading our minds. I was just thinking about learning FastAPI and, you made this video!!!

[@aakashjana6225]

we only think of what they feed to us. not a big surprise nowadays anymore

[@sineadward5225]

@@aakashjana6225 What technologies are you working with/do you enjoy working with?

[@aakashjana6225]

@@sineadward5225 interestingly these days I am working with system verilog ( hardware description language) to work with FPGAs. Should take a look at it, it's very interesting fir chip design.

[@sovietcat4825]

great vid i didn't know you can do this until now... very infomative

[@zarrycherry]

Great to follow except for the part where you have your face cam over the code your write. Also when you transition from query parameters to the next topic your code for get_item is different and as we follow along we still have our required fields when trying to get an item after our 2 items added through post, the get_item method you used simply asks for the item name.

[@neclis7777]

Yes, this exactly :). The video is great, but as you underline in the conclusion of the video, the important part is the difference between Path & Query which you seem to have cut in your video ! THank you for all your content Tim, keep it up !

[@lifebelowyourmeans5454]

ya had the same problem. got kinda stuck lol.

[@mawe4585]

Mee too! Great video but this part around 26:00 is impossible to follow.

[@dawit100100]

here is the part of the code which is not visible on part around 26:00 def get_item(item_id: int = Path(None, description="The Id of the item you'd like to view", gt=0, lt=2)):

[@EnglishRain]

Thanks a TON for Zooming in!

[@michakacprzak8984]

Really nice introduction to FAST API, thanks Tim

[@binaprajapati3593]

I am not first. I am not last. But when Tim uploads, I click fast 😎😎

[@ikennamanagwu9646]

You should have been a rapper... Eminem needs lessons

[@procode6881]

Was waiting waiting for this ...first one to get it!

[@Meenimie]

Tim, you're the best at what you do. Please, keep it up because we need you.

[@sanjeevKumar-eg6hp]

Thanks for precise and to the point explanation of FAST-API. It was nice leaning at this pace

[@kemalcihanbastak8476]

Hey Tim could you make tutorials about advanced topics like Kafka and Elasticsearch with Python. Btw great explanation.

[@k2theboss47]

Thanks Tim, this is insanely valuable!!!

[@parameshkumar6580]

Thank You Tim ,Great video I like the way how you used dictionary first then introduced classes

[@rasheedibraheem6839]

A great tutorial! Very helpful, many thanks Tim

[@tomdanielsofficial]

Thank you so much for this great video! It helped me finish my homework for python class which would have been due tomorrow :)

[@whichdude420]

Glad more people are trying out FastAPI ^^

[@iscodav]

Thank you very much. That was a great experience to get to start with FastAPI

[@emailvinz]

Great tuto as usual, thanks Tim !

[@thehandydandy]

Please do some more fastapi videos, the library is still new and there isn't much tutorials out there. Great thing is that the documenting is really good.

[@alexnefayne4266]

Thanks Tim another great tutorial i find these so usefull

[@yassinebenazzouz7170]

just watched your flask restful api and this one, perfect !

Thanks Tim!

[@gecsus]

Tim, at time 26:00 you are adding things we can't see for Greater than >. Your popover window either covered it or you were showing the wrong part of the screen. So we are unable to type what you typed. Generally, your videos are really good, so please review them carefully.

[@ignabelitzky]

def get_item(item_id: int = Path(None, description = "The ID of the item you'd like to view.", le=1)):

[@user-re1vj1jx4r]

Great one!

[@samozturk8276]

@50:51 Tim forgot to type "from fastapi import Query" on top of the code.

[@ceres11]

he really forgot that

[@lifebelowyourmeans5454]

thanks man

[@riperboyxl3216]

dude this tutorial is GREAT

Excellent tutorial

[@xXJM01Xx]

Great video, I knew this was a great library that I should learn and the video did a very good job of getting my feet wet.

[@Latif127]

It is a nice tutorial. Thank you

[@abdallahkharoby4180]

Your are really awesome thank you very much, hope you make one day a video about scrapy library so that we can scrap an api from any website we want.

[@Robizd1]

You could have used PATCH method instead of PUT method for updating items. PATCH allows you to partially update item. Btw nice video

[@yessirski7868]

do they work the same in terms of the perameters?

[@GelsYT]

THANK YOU!!!

[@johnnyt.2523]

Outrageous! xD

[@AtulKumar-zu5hx]

great explanation

[@saloniparekh3999]

wow this was really great, can you also post videos for DS and Algos to prepare for job interviews.

[@gianniprocida3332]

Excellent!

[@MansiBansalc]

48:17 here we can directly write inventory[item] = item and this will return the updated value

[@samozturk8276]

Hello Tim, nice tutorial. But at some parts, I couldn't see the code because of the portrait :D Are there any repo for this or something like that?

[@Elekks]

Consider maybe moving you're camera to the top right of the screen. Around 26:27ish you were blocking the syntax for less than and greater than operators. Not a huge deal but could make the video easier to follow.

[@malachimathins9390]

Great Video Tim "Hey everyone! I just wanted to share my experience with different code editors. I've tried various IDEs, including VS Code and Visual Studio, and I ran into some issues that were frustrating to deal with. so its best to use sublime text like in the video

[@arturmostowiak9427]

The PUT method is not necessarily a method that updates something. For this you have PATCH method. PUT is in short : create a resource or update it if it exists.

[@ChrisHalden007]

Great video. Thanks

[@gnvageesh6467]

That's cool and easy for those who have experience with Flask... Could make a tutorial on Python and Firebase like a backend tutorial

[@mike_vahemoubayed8099]

That would be awesome, I never used firebase, that would be nice to learn

Great tutorial, could you add a section showing how to secure API access with user login/pwd?

[@stefan.musarra]

Hey Tim - very well structured. Thank you! Is there a github repo for the code? That would be a lot easier than typing it in and then resolving typos.💚

Very Good, from Brazil 🇧🇷😃👍

[@sakethgupta2885]

Make a tutorial on media pipe which helps us a lot in object recognition, and boosts the capability of opencv

[@leonWischmeyer]

Pls make your cam in the top right corner and make it a bit smaler. The tutorial is very nice. When you have experience with flask fastapi is very easy to learn.

[@gustavo8433]

Thanks for the tutorial !! I need to put some dash/ plotly elements into my API. is it possible ? how could this be done ?
