Python RestAPI using Quart HTTP/3 ASGI framework.

• On a development host, create a virtual environment for development and test. Both must be using the same virtual environment.
• Virtual environment is optional for CI/CD do because everything runs in a docker container.
• Add the following to .env for database access credentials:

DB_USERNAME=username
DB_PASSWORD=password

• Obtain an API key from https://aistudio.google.com/apikey
• Add a .env file with the following content:

  GEMINI_API_KEY=<api key>
  

$ uv sync
$ uv venv

• This project uses PostgreSQL database with SQLAlchemy ORM and marshmallow model schema.

• Firstly, create an empty database "library" in PostgreSQL

• Copy env.py to migrations/ folder.

• Set the values DB_foo in /etc/pythonrestapi_config.json

• run migrations initialization with db init command:

  $ uv run alembic init migrations
  $ cp env.py migrations
  $ uv run alembic revision --autogenerate -m "Initial migration"
  $ uv run alembic upgrade head
  

• There will be 3 tables, "users", "books", and "authors" created in the PostgreSQL database "library" after the upgrade.

• There are 7 test cases
  • JWT token generation and decoding
  • HomeController
  • FibonacciController

  $ uv run pytest -v
  $ python -m pytest
  

• Integrated with CircleCI

• ./hypercorn.sh

• To build your own HTTP/3 curl: https://curl.se/docs/http3.html
• Add Host header which is defined as server_names in hypercorn.toml

curl --http3-only --insecure -v https://localhost:4433/<path> -H "Host: khteh.com"

curl --http3-only --insecure -vv https://localhost:4433/chat/invoke -F 'prompt=:"What is task decomposition?"' -F 'file=@~/data/1.jpg' -F 'receipt=true'

• Close ALL chrome browser (both tabs and windows)

• Generate TLS certificate fingerprint:

$ fingerprint=`openssl x509 -pubkey -noout -in /tmp/server.crt |
        openssl rsa -pubin -outform der |
        openssl dgst -sha256 -binary | base64`

• Start Chrome browser with QUIC protocol for HTTP/3:
• $1 is URL. For example: https://localhost:4433

$  /opt/google/chrome/chrome --disable-setuid-sandbox --enable-quic --ignore-certificate-errors-spki-list=$fingerprint --origin-to-force-quic-on=${1#*//} $1

• Return text message from input prompt string by calling the API
• Return text message from input prompt string and an image file by calling the API
• Multimodal:
  • Upload an image, "receipt" in this case, and it wil return a structured data containing details in the receipt:

  • On the UI:

• POST https://localhost:4433/users/create with the following JSON data:

  {
      "firstname": "First Name",
      "lastname": "LastName",
      "email": "[email protected]",
      "password": "P@$$w0rd"

      "password": "P@$$w0rd"
  }
  

• Sample response:

  {
      "jwt_token": "token string"
  }
  

Key: api-key
Vaue: jwt_token from the login response

• POST https://localhost:4433/authors/create with the following JSON data:

      "title": "My First Book"
  }
  

• Books table has a foreign key id to Authors.id and this is defined as required in BookSchema.
• Therefore, when a DELETE RESTful operation is sent to the application to delete an author which has associated book:

mysql.connector.errors.IntegrityError: 1048 (23000): Column 'author_id' cannot be null
