  • Attendees: Austin, Daniel, Isabel, Nathan, and Sheldon
• 037-march-23-2021
  • We talked about path parameters, query parameters, and body for FastAPI. We then took a dive into setting up the app for using a SQLAlchemy database. If you want to catchup clone https://github.com/code-experiment/code_experiment_fastapi_playground.
  • Attendees: Austin, Daniel, Isabel, and Nathan
• 038-march-30-2021

  • Attendees: Cory, Daniel, and Nathan
• 039-april-06-2021
  • We added authentication to lock down the ability to create a todo. After logging in you can only create a todo for the currently logged in user. If you want to catchup clone https://github.com/code-experiment/code_experiment_fastapi_playground.
  • Attendees: Cory, Daniel, Isabel, and Nathan, (Abrahan for about 30min)
• 040-april-13-2021
  • We refactored the app to have a routers folder instead of it all living inside the main file. We added pytest and added two new tests for the user routes. Homework is creating more tests or learning more about testing, read the readme for more information. If you want to catchup clone https://github.com/code-experiment/code_experiment_fastapi_playground.
  • Attendees: Austin, Cory, Daniel, Isabel, Michael, and Nathan
• 041-april-20-2021
  • We messed around with fastAPI Testclient. We will continue working through the challenges.
  • Attendees: Nathan, and Daniel
• 042-april-27-2021
  • We finished all the main tests for the current functionality. We can now start doing the TDD approach for creating the other routes.
  • Attendees: Daniel and Nathan
• 043-may-04-2021
  • We Added the ability to delete a user and get the users todos.
  • Attendees: Daniel and Nathan
• 044-may-18-2021
  • I changed code base to use a pipfile instead of a requirements file for versioning the packages. We reviewed the tests to get people caught up. We added a route to toggle a todo complete with tests. Homework is to figure out how to only allow users to toggle their todos complete since users can toggle anyone elses todos currently.
  • Attendees: Daniel, Kody, Michael, and Nathan
• 045-may-25-2021
  • We did TDD approach to solving not letting users mark other users todos complete. After the meeting I refactored a few of the fixtures and updated the new test name.
  • Attendees: Daniel and Michael
• 046-june-01-2021
  • We did TDD approach to solve delete todos. We also protected the main branch and added a pipeline to lint and run our tests before allowing for a merge request. It might need a little more tweaking but it is working great so far. Starting next week we will be meeting on Wednesdays and we will either attempt to host the fast api somewhere or start working on the react app.
  • Attendees: Daniel, Michael, and Nathan
• 047-june-09-2021
