Zentra API

Streamline your workflow, automate repetitive tasks, and generate high-quality code in minutes. Whether you're a seasoned developer or just starting out, Zentra API empowers you to build robust, scalable, and production-ready FastAPI applications with unparalleled speed and efficiency.

Say goodbye to the hassles of manual setup and configuration, and say hello to a smoother, more productive coding experience.

Zentra API isn't just about speed - it's about enhancing your entire development process. Its intuitive CLI simplifies project creation, allowing you to focus on what truly matters: crafting exceptional APIs.

With built-in templates, automated code generation, and seamless integration with popular tools and frameworks, Zentra API ensures your projects are not only fast to build but also maintain the highest standards of quality and performance.

What's Great About It?

Our goal with Zentra API is to provide a suite of useful CLI commands and package features that improve the efficiency of building FastAPI apps. API development doesn't need to be a long winded process!

Here's some of the commands you can expect to see:

• init - a quick way to initialize projects with a predefined template so you can dive straight into route building. You'll need to run this first!
• add-table - adds a SQL Base class template to the project, automatically configuring it for use in routes
• add-route - adds a new route to the project with a starter template, automatically linking it to the FastAPI app
• build - creates a production ready version of your app with docker files
• new_key - a quick way to generate a new authentication secret key

We've also added a few extra features to make development a breeze:

• Route outputs - routes include a standardized template for API responses that follow best practices making your APIs a joy to work with
• Response models - utilities for quickly building response models from status codes that can be added to your routes in seconds

And so much more...

Getting Started

To get started, install the API package with Poetry:

pip install zentra-api poetry

We use Poetry for managing our project packages and using custom commands, such as run-dev for the development environment.

Then create a new project with:

zentra-api init <project_name>

With one command you'll have a working app in minutes with:

• Built-in user authentication with JWT token protection
• Preconfigured CORs middleware
• A SQLite database configured with Alembic and SQLAlchemy
• Built-in templated route responses following best practices
• A simple folder structure to make project navigation a breeze
• Prebuilt Pytests so you can focus on your own code
• And, access to our package filled with other goodies

But that's not all! We've also got plans to add:

• Rate limiting with SlowAPI
• API key configuration
• An admin interface for easily navigating your database
• Email based password recovery
• A build command to go from development to production in minutes
• And so much more...
