FastAPI & Uvicorn

This tells Heroku to run uvicorn, which is a web server implementation in Python.

FastAPI uses Uvicorn, an ASGI (Asynchronous Server Gateway Interface) web server implementation for Python.

Now, let’s run our FastAPI application using Uvicorn: uvicorn main:app --reload

Uvicorn + Starlette 8k requests/s

I switched to Hypercorn because Uvicorn currently supports HTTP/1.1 and WebSockets as mentioned at https://www.uvicorn.org

This will set up Chroma and run it as a server with uvicorn, making port 8000 accessible outside the net docker network. The command also mounts a persistent docker volume for Chroma's database, found at chroma/chroma from your project's root.

There's an open discussion under the Uvicorn repository and we prepared a repository for Reproduction GitHub Repo

FastAPI is a popular Python Web framework that developers use to create RESTful APIs. It is based on Pydantic and Python-type hints that assist in the serialization, deserialization, and validation of data. In this tutorial, we will use FastAPI to create a simple "Hello World" application. We test and run the application locally. FastAPI requires a ASGI server to run the application production such as Uvicorn.

uvicorn is an ASGI server that is recommended for running FastAPI applications.

I can't seem to be able to edit on mobile. OP either meant this, or its variation, such as async_to_sync and sync_to_async.

Ofc this is a python example. I have no idea how it works in different languages.

Look at the intended semantics [1], and then read the implementation [2]. Can you figure out if the implementation is correct? Can you infer the possible limitations of the approach at glance? Can your async library actually handle being called with multiple event loops installed?

I have zero trust in this code and I have been bitten by fixes to this library that introduced deadlocks in my own code.

Using WebSockets in Django utilizes asynchronous Python and Django channels, making the process straightforward. Using Django channels, you can create an ASGI server, and then create a group where users can send text messages to all the other users in the group in real time. This way, you are not communicating with a particular user, but with a group, multiple users can be added.

If you're interested in the architecture itself I recommend you start by making yourself familiar with [ASGI specification](https://asgi.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) .

We switched to using strong typing derived from the asgiref for typing ASGI types, which makes Starlite the strongest type framework of its kind.
