HTTP layer

Middlewares, dependencies, routers and middleware composition for the API surface.

Application bootstrap

Section 2 of the tutorial shows the minimal create_app(). This recipe is the extended version, wiring everything tempest_fastapi_sdk.api ships — exception handlers, CORS, request-ID middleware, the health router with extra checks, a shared-secret token dependency and an extra Redis manager — all from the same canonical src/api/app.py location. The bootstrapping pattern stays identical; only the contents of create_app() grow.

# src/api/app.py
from collections.abc import AsyncIterator
from contextlib import asynccontextmanager

from fastapi import Depends, FastAPI

from tempest_fastapi_sdk import (
    AsyncDatabaseManager,
    RequestIDMiddleware,
    apply_cors,
    configure_logging,
    make_health_router,
    make_token_dependency,
    register_exception_handlers,
)
from tempest_fastapi_sdk.cache import AsyncRedisManager

from src.core.settings import settings


configure_logging(level=settings.LOG_LEVEL, json_output=settings.LOG_JSON)

db = AsyncDatabaseManager(
    settings.DATABASE_URL,
    echo=settings.DATABASE_ECHO,
    pool_size=settings.DATABASE_POOL_SIZE,
    max_overflow=settings.DATABASE_MAX_OVERFLOW,
    pool_recycle=settings.DATABASE_POOL_RECYCLE,
)
redis = AsyncRedisManager(settings.REDIS_URL)
require_token = make_token_dependency(settings.TOKEN_SECRET)


@asynccontextmanager
async def lifespan(_: FastAPI) -> AsyncIterator[None]:
    await db.connect()
    await redis.connect()
    try:
        yield
    finally:
        await redis.disconnect()
        await db.disconnect()


def create_app() -> FastAPI:
    """Build and configure the FastAPI app."""
    app = FastAPI(
        title="my-service",
        version=settings.VERSION,
        lifespan=lifespan,
    )

    app.add_middleware(RequestIDMiddleware)
    apply_cors(app, settings)
    register_exception_handlers(app)

    # Meta endpoints at the root prefix.
    app.include_router(
        make_health_router(
            db=db,
            checks={"redis": redis.health_check},
            version=settings.VERSION,
        ),
    )

    # Business endpoints under /api/<domain>, guarded by the shared secret.
    from src.api.routers import users

    app.include_router(
        users.router,
        prefix="/api",
        dependencies=[Depends(require_token)],
    )
    return app


app = create_app()

Key points:

  • src/server.py and main.py (one-liner) stay exactly as in Section 2 of the tutorial — only create_app() changes when you add primitives. Never start uvicorn via subprocess.run(["uvicorn", ...]); always import app from src.api.app or call uvicorn.run("src.api.app:app", ...) programmatically from src/server.py.
  • RequestIDMiddleware reads/writes X-Request-ID and seeds request_id_ctx so every log line emitted during the request carries the correlation ID.
  • apply_cors(app, settings) reads CORSSettings defaults; pass keyword overrides for one-off changes.
  • register_exception_handlers(app) wires three handlers, each with its own log level:

    • AppException{detail, code, details} envelope + INFO log (4xx) or ERROR + traceback + 500.log (5xx).
    • HTTPException → keeps Starlette's default body ({"detail"}) on 4xx with an INFO log; on 5xx swaps in the SDK envelope + traceback + 500.log.
    • Exception (catch-all) → SDK envelope + traceback + 500.log (fixes Starlette's default, which returns only "Internal Server Error" with no log entry).

    Every handler honors RequestIDMiddleware: the log line carries the request_id, and the envelope exposes it under details so the client can correlate. Pass log_traceback=False when an APM (Sentry, OpenTelemetry) is already capturing the stack trace. - make_health_router(db=db, checks={"redis": redis.health_check}, version=...) mounts GET /health/liveness and GET /health/readiness (returns 503 when any check fails) at the root prefix. - make_token_dependency(secret) returns an async dependency that validates X-Token via hmac.compare_digest; pass an empty string to disable in dev. The dependency lives next to the rest of the auth glue in src/api/dependencies/auth.py once it grows beyond the one-liner above.

JWT bearer / current-user / role dependencies

Four dependency factories live in tempest_fastapi_sdk.api.dependencies.auth — pick the level of abstraction you need.

Factory What you get
make_token_dependency(secret) Validate the X-Token shared-secret header (constant time).
make_bearer_token_dependency(tokens, soft=False) Decode Authorization: Bearer <jwt> and return the claims dict.
make_jwt_user_dependency(tokens, user_loader, soft=False, subject_claim="sub") Decode the bearer JWT, await user_loader(subject), return the loaded user.
make_role_dependency(tokens, ["admin"], require_all=False, roles_claim="roles") / make_permission_dependency(tokens, ["users:write"], require_all=True, permissions_claim="permissions") Decode the bearer JWT and gate the route on roles / permissions.
# src/api/dependencies/auth.py
from uuid import UUID

from tempest_fastapi_sdk import (
    JWTUtils,
    make_bearer_token_dependency,
    make_jwt_user_dependency,
    make_permission_dependency,
    make_role_dependency,
)

from src.api.app import db
from src.core.settings import settings
from src.db.models import UserModel
from src.db.repositories import UserRepository


tokens = JWTUtils(
    secret=settings.JWT_SECRET,
    algorithm=settings.JWT_ALGORITHM,
)


async def load_user(subject: str) -> UserModel:
    """Resolve the JWT subject (a UUID string) to a persisted user."""
    async with db.get_session_context() as session:
        repo = UserRepository(session)
        return await repo.get_by_id(UUID(subject))


require_bearer = make_bearer_token_dependency(tokens)
get_current_user = make_jwt_user_dependency(tokens, load_user)
get_current_user_or_none = make_jwt_user_dependency(tokens, load_user, soft=True)

require_admin = make_role_dependency(tokens, ["admin"])
require_users_write = make_permission_dependency(tokens, ["users:write"])
# src/api/routers/users.py
from fastapi import APIRouter, Depends

from src.api.dependencies.auth import (
    get_current_user,
    require_admin,
    require_users_write,
)

router = APIRouter(prefix="/users", tags=["users"])


@router.get("/me")
async def me(current: UserModel = Depends(get_current_user)) -> UserResponseSchema:
    return UserResponseSchema.model_validate(current)


@router.delete("/{user_id}", dependencies=[Depends(require_admin)])
async def delete_user(user_id: UUID) -> None:
    ...


@router.patch(
    "/{user_id}/permissions",
    dependencies=[Depends(require_users_write)],
)
async def update_perms(user_id: UUID) -> None:
    ...

soft=True returns None instead of raising on missing/invalid tokens — useful for endpoints that work both authenticated and anonymous. subject_claim defaults to "sub" but can be any custom claim ("user_id", "uid", ...). Role dependencies accept either a string or a list of strings on the JWT claim; require_all=True requires every listed role/permission, False (default for roles, override for permissions) requires any.

Rate limit middleware

RateLimitMiddleware is a lightweight in-process sliding-window limiter — each unique key (client IP by default) is allowed at most max_requests requests inside every window_seconds window. Exceeded requests get a 429 Too Many Requests with a Retry-After header.

# src/api/app.py
from tempest_fastapi_sdk import RateLimitMiddleware


def create_app() -> FastAPI:
    app = FastAPI(...)
    app.add_middleware(
        RateLimitMiddleware,
        max_requests=120,
        window_seconds=60.0,
        exempt_paths=("/health/liveness", "/health/readiness"),
    )
    ...

Pass key_func= to partition state by tenant header, authenticated user, or any request attribute. The full app factory then looks like:

# src/api/app.py
from fastapi import FastAPI, Request

from tempest_fastapi_sdk import RateLimitMiddleware


def by_tenant(request: Request) -> str:
    """Bucket every request under its tenant header, falling back to IP."""
    return request.headers.get(
        "X-Tenant",
        request.client.host if request.client else "anon",
    )


def create_app() -> FastAPI:
    app = FastAPI(...)
    app.add_middleware(
        RateLimitMiddleware,
        max_requests=600,
        window_seconds=60.0,
        key_func=by_tenant,                                  # ← swap the default IP key
        exempt_paths=("/health/liveness", "/health/readiness"),
    )
    return app

The two highlighted pieces — the by_tenant helper and the key_func=by_tenant wiring — are the only diff against the default snippet above.

The state is held in-process — for multi-worker deployments either run a single uvicorn worker behind a single reverse-proxy node, or push rate limiting to the edge (nginx / Cloudflare / AWS WAF). The middleware is intentionally simple; a Redis-backed sliding-window limiter is one issue away if it shows up as a real need.

Webhook signature verification

WebhookSignatureVerifier validates HMAC-signed inbound webhooks (Stripe / GitHub style) and exposes a FastAPI dependency that reads the raw body, checks the signature with hmac.compare_digest, and yields the body bytes so the route handler can re-parse it without re-reading the stream.

# src/api/dependencies/webhooks.py
from tempest_fastapi_sdk import WebhookSignatureVerifier

from src.core.settings import settings


github = WebhookSignatureVerifier(
    secret=settings.GITHUB_WEBHOOK_SECRET,
    algorithm="sha256",
    header_name="X-Hub-Signature-256",
    prefix="sha256=",
)
stripe = WebhookSignatureVerifier(
    secret=settings.STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SECRET,
    algorithm="sha256",
    header_name="Stripe-Signature",
    encoding="hex",
)
# src/api/routers/webhooks.py
from fastapi import APIRouter, Depends

from src.api.dependencies.webhooks import github

router = APIRouter(prefix="/webhooks", tags=["webhooks"])


@router.post("/github")
async def github_event(body: bytes = Depends(github.dependency())) -> None:
    payload = json.loads(body)
    ...

Supports hex (default) and base64 encodings, any hashlib algorithm guaranteed across platforms, and an optional prefix (e.g. "sha256=") stripped before comparison. Use the imperative verifier.verify(body, signature) from queue handlers when validation happens outside the FastAPI pipeline.

For providers that sign with an RSA private key (Apple App Store, Google Play, custom enterprise services), swap WebhookSignatureVerifier for RSAWebhookSignatureVerifier — same verify(body, signature) surface, but it validates the signature against a PEM-encoded public key. Uses RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5 over SHA-256/384/512 (configurable via algorithm=). Requires the cryptography package (installed by the [webpush] extra).

from tempest_fastapi_sdk import RSAWebhookSignatureVerifier

apple = RSAWebhookSignatureVerifier(
    public_key_pem=settings.APPLE_PUBLIC_KEY_PEM,
    header_name="X-Apple-Signature",
    algorithm="sha256",
)

# From queue handlers / outside FastAPI:
ok: bool = apple.verify(raw_body_bytes, base64_signature_header_value)

build_pagination_link_header emits an RFC 8288 Link header with first / prev / next / last rels — pair it with (or use instead of) the BasePaginationSchema body wrapper for REST clients that expect GitHub-style headers. Existing query parameters on the base URL are preserved.

from fastapi import Request, Response

from tempest_fastapi_sdk import (
    BasePaginationSchema,
    build_pagination_link_header,
)


@router.get("", response_model=list[UserResponseSchema])
async def list_users(
    request: Request,
    response: Response,
    filters: UserFilterSchema = Depends(),
    controller: UserController = Depends(get_user_controller),
) -> list[UserResponseSchema]:
    result = await controller.paginate(
        filters=filters.get_conditions(),
        order_by=filters.order_by,
        page=filters.page,
        page_size=filters.page_size,
        ascending=filters.ascending,
    )
    page = BasePaginationSchema[UserResponseSchema](**result)
    response.headers["Link"] = build_pagination_link_header(
        str(request.url),
        page=page.page,
        page_size=page.page_size,
        pages=page.pages,
    )
    response.headers["X-Total-Count"] = str(page.total)
    return page.items

Tweak page_param= / size_param= when your service uses non-standard query parameter names (e.g. offset / limit). Pass extra_params={"sort": "name"} to bake the current sort/filter state into every link.

Tool-spec router

make_tool_spec_router(spec) mounts a GET /tool-spec endpoint exposing a machine-readable manifest at the root prefix — meant to sit alongside /health/liveness so external callers can discover capabilities without parsing the full OpenAPI document.

# src/api/app.py
from tempest_fastapi_sdk import (
    make_health_router,
    make_tool_spec_router,
)


def _tool_spec() -> dict[str, object]:
    """Computed per request — keeps version + counts in sync with state."""
    return {
        "service": "my-service",
        "version": settings.VERSION,
        "tools": [
            {"path": "/api/users", "method": "GET", "summary": "List users"},
            {"path": "/api/orders", "method": "POST", "summary": "Place order"},
        ],
    }


def create_app() -> FastAPI:
    app = FastAPI(...)
    app.include_router(make_health_router(db=db))
    app.include_router(make_tool_spec_router(_tool_spec))
    ...
    return app

Pass a dict (served verbatim), a sync callable (called every request) or an async callable (awaited). Override path= to expose the manifest at a different URL or tag= to group it under a different OpenAPI tag.

Programmatic server entry point

run_server is the canonical helper imported from src/server.py. It centralizes the host / port / reload defaults — pulling values from a ServerSettings-flavoured settings object when present — and keeps the entry point a single line.

# src/server.py
from tempest_fastapi_sdk import run_server

from src.api.app import app  # noqa: F401 — re-exported for external runners
from src.core.settings import settings


def run() -> None:
    """Start the API server programmatically."""
    run_server("src.api.app:app", settings=settings)


__all__: list[str] = ["app", "run"]
# main.py
from src.server import run

if __name__ == "__main__":
    run()

Resolution order for each kwarg is explicit argument → settings.SERVER_* → SDK default ("127.0.0.1" / 8000 / False). Extra uvicorn kwargs (workers=, log_config=, ssl_*=) are forwarded verbatim.

Settings mixins composition

BaseAppSettings is the configured pydantic-settings base. The SDK also exposes composable mixins for the most common dependencies; pick the ones the service needs and put BaseAppSettings at the end of the MRO so its model_config wins.

# src/core/settings.py
from pydantic import Field

from tempest_fastapi_sdk import (
    BaseAppSettings,
    CORSSettings,
    DatabaseSettings,
    EmailSettings,
    JWTSettings,
    LogSettings,
    RabbitMQSettings,
    RedisSettings,
    ServerSettings,
    TaskIQSettings,
    TokenSettings,
    UploadSettings,
    WebPushSettings,
)


class Settings(
    ServerSettings,
    LogSettings,
    DatabaseSettings,
    RedisSettings,
    RabbitMQSettings,
    TaskIQSettings,
    JWTSettings,
    CORSSettings,
    EmailSettings,
    UploadSettings,
    TokenSettings,
    WebPushSettings,
    BaseAppSettings,
):
    """Service-wide settings."""

    VERSION: str = Field(default="0.0.0")


settings = Settings()

Each mixin owns its own env-var prefix — pick only the ones the service needs:

Mixin Env vars
ServerSettings SERVER_HOST, SERVER_PORT, SERVER_RELOAD, SERVER_DEBUG
LogSettings LOG_LEVEL, LOG_JSON
DatabaseSettings DATABASE_URL, DATABASE_ECHO, DATABASE_POOL_SIZE, DATABASE_MAX_OVERFLOW, DATABASE_POOL_RECYCLE
RedisSettings REDIS_URL, REDIS_DECODE_RESPONSES
RabbitMQSettings RABBITMQ_URL, RABBITMQ_PREFETCH_COUNT
TaskIQSettings TASKIQ_BROKER_URL, TASKIQ_RESULT_BACKEND_URL
JWTSettings JWT_SECRET, JWT_ALGORITHM, JWT_ACCESS_TTL_SECONDS, JWT_REFRESH_TTL_SECONDS, JWT_ISSUER
CORSSettings CORS_ORIGINS, CORS_ALLOW_CREDENTIALS, CORS_ALLOW_METHODS, CORS_ALLOW_HEADERS, CORS_EXPOSE_HEADERS, CORS_MAX_AGE
EmailSettings SMTP_HOST, SMTP_PORT, SMTP_USERNAME, SMTP_PASSWORD, SMTP_FROM_ADDR, SMTP_USE_TLS, SMTP_USE_SSL, SMTP_TIMEOUT_SECONDS
UploadSettings UPLOAD_DIR, UPLOAD_MAX_SIZE_BYTES, UPLOAD_ALLOWED_EXTENSIONS, UPLOAD_ALLOWED_MIMETYPES
TokenSettings TOKEN_SECRET
WebPushSettings VAPID_PUBLIC_KEY, VAPID_PRIVATE_KEY, VAPID_SUBJECT, WEBPUSH_DEFAULT_TTL_SECONDS

Breaking change in 0.8.0: ServerSettings previously exposed bare HOST / PORT / DEBUG / LOG_LEVEL / LOG_JSON fields. They were renamed to SERVER_HOST / SERVER_PORT / SERVER_RELOAD / SERVER_DEBUG, and LOG_LEVEL / LOG_JSON moved to the new LogSettings mixin. Update both your .env file (env var names) and any code reading settings.HOST etc.

Authentication

End-to-end signup + login + protected route using PasswordUtils and JWTUtils. Requires the [auth] extra.

Wire the utility singletons

# src/core/security.py
from datetime import timedelta

from tempest_fastapi_sdk import JWTUtils, PasswordUtils

from src.core.settings import settings


passwords = PasswordUtils(rounds=12)

tokens = JWTUtils(
    secret=settings.JWT_SECRET,
    algorithm=settings.JWT_ALGORITHM,
    default_ttl=timedelta(seconds=settings.JWT_ACCESS_TTL_SECONDS),
    issuer="my-app",
)

Signup

Reuse the UserService.create defined in the tutorial — it already hashes the password.

Login

# src/schemas/auth.py
from pydantic import EmailStr

from tempest_fastapi_sdk import BaseSchema


class LoginSchema(BaseSchema):
    email: EmailStr
    password: str


class TokenResponseSchema(BaseSchema):
    access_token: str
    token_type: str = "bearer"
# src/services/auth.py
from sqlalchemy.ext.asyncio import AsyncSession

from tempest_fastapi_sdk import JWTUtils, PasswordUtils, UnauthorizedException

from src.db.repositories import UserRepository
from src.schemas.auth import LoginSchema, TokenResponseSchema


class AuthService:
    def __init__(
        self,
        session: AsyncSession,
        passwords: PasswordUtils,
        tokens: JWTUtils,
    ) -> None:
        self.repo = UserRepository(session)
        self.passwords = passwords
        self.tokens = tokens

    async def login(self, data: LoginSchema) -> TokenResponseSchema:
        user = await self.repo.get_or_none({"email": data.email})
        if user is None or not self.passwords.verify(
            data.password, user.password_hash
        ):
            # Same error for both cases — don't leak which one failed.
            raise UnauthorizedException(message="E-mail ou senha inválidos")
        token = self.tokens.encode({"sub": str(user.id)})
        return TokenResponseSchema(access_token=token)
# src/api/routers/auth.py
from fastapi import APIRouter, Depends
from sqlalchemy.ext.asyncio import AsyncSession

from src.api.app import db
from src.core.security import passwords, tokens
from src.schemas.auth import LoginSchema, TokenResponseSchema
from src.services.auth import AuthService


router = APIRouter(prefix="/auth", tags=["auth"])


def get_auth_service(
    session: AsyncSession = Depends(db.session_dependency),
) -> AuthService:
    return AuthService(session, passwords, tokens)


@router.post("/login", response_model=TokenResponseSchema)
async def login(
    data: LoginSchema,
    service: AuthService = Depends(get_auth_service),
) -> TokenResponseSchema:
    return await service.login(data)

Protect a route — JWT dependency

Use make_jwt_user_dependency to wire the bearer scheme + JWT decode + user load in one call. The single seam is user_loader(subject), an async callable that maps the JWT subject claim to your domain UserModel.

# src/api/dependencies/auth.py
from uuid import UUID

from tempest_fastapi_sdk import make_jwt_user_dependency

from src.api.app import db
from src.core.security import tokens
from src.db.models import UserModel
from src.db.repositories import UserRepository


async def load_user(subject: str) -> UserModel:
    """Resolve the JWT subject (a UUID string) to a persisted user.

    Opens its own session so the dependency stays request-scope-agnostic
    (the loader is called once per request, and SDK exceptions raised
    inside translate to the canonical 401/404 envelope).
    """
    async with db.get_session_context() as session:
        repo = UserRepository(session)
        return await repo.get_by_id(UUID(subject))


get_current_user = make_jwt_user_dependency(tokens, load_user)
get_current_user_or_none = make_jwt_user_dependency(tokens, load_user, soft=True)
# Use in any route
@router.get("/me", response_model=UserResponseSchema)
async def me(current: UserModel = Depends(get_current_user)) -> UserResponseSchema:
    return UserResponseSchema.model_validate(current)

Soft auth (optional user)

get_current_user_or_none above already uses soft=True — it returns None instead of raising on a missing or invalid token, so endpoints can work both authenticated and anonymous:

@router.get("/feed")
async def feed(
    current: UserModel | None = Depends(get_current_user_or_none),
) -> FeedResponseSchema:
    return await feed_service.list(viewer=current)

Under the hood soft=True calls tokens.decode_or_none (no exception on expired/invalid tokens) and skips the loader when the subject is missing.


File uploads

Avatar endpoint with validation + cleanup. Requires the [upload] extra.

# src/core/storage.py
from tempest_fastapi_sdk import UploadUtils

from src.core.settings import settings


avatar_storage = UploadUtils(
    upload_dir=f"{settings.UPLOAD_DIR}/avatars",
    max_size_bytes=5 * 1024 * 1024,            # 5 MiB
    allowed_extensions={"png", "jpg", "jpeg", "webp"},
    allowed_mimetypes={"image/png", "image/jpeg", "image/webp"},
    verify_magic_bytes=True,                   # sniff bytes, reject polyglots
)

verify_magic_bytes=True reads the first bytes of each upload and confirms the file really is one of the allowed types — an HTML+JS payload sent as image/png is rejected even though its extension and Content-Type header look valid. Only enable it when every accepted format is one sniff_mime recognizes (JPEG, PNG, GIF, BMP, WebP, PDF); otherwise a legitimate but unsniffable upload would be refused. For finer control, pass a content_validator predicate to save() (save(file, content_validator=lambda b: sniff_mime(b) in {"image/png"})), and pass filename="..." for a deterministic, addressable name (e.g. f"{user_id}.jpg") instead of the default UUID.

# src/api/routers/users.py (extension)
from fastapi import UploadFile

from src.api.dependencies import get_user_controller
from src.controllers.user import UserController
from src.core.storage import avatar_storage


@router.post("/{user_id}/avatar", response_model=UserResponseSchema)
async def upload_avatar(
    user_id: UUID,
    file: UploadFile,
    current: UserModel = Depends(get_current_user),
    controller: UserController = Depends(get_user_controller),
) -> UserResponseSchema:
    if current.id != user_id:
        raise ForbiddenException(message="Só pode editar o próprio avatar")
    path = await avatar_storage.save(file, subdir=str(user_id))
    return await controller.set_avatar(user_id, str(path))

Add set_avatar to both the service and the controller (the controller stays a thin pass-through unless orchestration is needed — e.g. firing an "avatar updated" event):

# src/services/user.py
class UserService:
    async def set_avatar(self, user_id: UUID, path: str) -> UserResponseSchema:
        user = await self.repo.get_by_id(user_id)
        # Delete previous file when replacing.
        if user.avatar_path and user.avatar_path != path:
            avatar_storage.delete(user.avatar_path)
        user.avatar_path = path
        user = await self.repo.update(user)
        return self.repo.map_to_response(user)


# src/controllers/user.py
class UserController:
    async def set_avatar(self, user_id: UUID, path: str) -> UserResponseSchema:
        return await self.service.set_avatar(user_id, path)

UploadUtils.save() raises FileTooLargeException (413) or InvalidFileTypeException (415) on rejection — the SDK's exception handler already returns the right status code with a code field on the response.

Serving the file back

Local-disk uploads are best served by an upstream (nginx / Caddy) so FastAPI doesn't stream bytes. For dev:

from fastapi.staticfiles import StaticFiles

app.mount(
    "/static/uploads",
    StaticFiles(directory=settings.UPLOAD_DIR),
    name="uploads",
)

Construct the public URL in the response schema:

class UserResponseSchema(BaseResponseSchema):
    name: str
    email: EmailStr
    avatar_url: str | None = None

    @field_validator("avatar_url", mode="before")
    @classmethod
    def _absolute_url(cls, value: str | None) -> str | None:
        if value is None:
            return None
        # avatar_path stored as relative path → public URL
        return f"/static/uploads/{value}"

Serving private files through the API (DownloadUtils)

When a file must stay behind auth — invoices, contracts, medical scans — a public /static URL leaks it to anyone who learns the path. DownloadUtils streams the bytes through the endpoint itself, so the same Depends(get_current_user) / permission checks that guard every other route guard the download too. No public link is ever exposed. It needs no extra (uses Starlette's FileResponse / StreamingResponse, which ship with FastAPI).

# src/core/storage.py
from tempest_fastapi_sdk import DownloadUtils

from src.core.settings import settings


invoice_files = DownloadUtils(base_dir=f"{settings.UPLOAD_DIR}/invoices")
# src/api/routers/invoices.py
from fastapi.responses import FileResponse

from src.api.dependencies import get_invoice_controller
from src.controllers.invoice import InvoiceController
from src.core.storage import invoice_files


@router.get("/{invoice_id}/file")
async def download_invoice(
    invoice_id: UUID,
    current: UserModel = Depends(get_current_user),
    controller: InvoiceController = Depends(get_invoice_controller),
) -> FileResponse:
    invoice = await controller.get_by_id(invoice_id)
    if invoice.owner_id != current.id:
        raise ForbiddenException(message="Fatura de outro usuário")
    # base_dir confines the read — a stored "../../etc/passwd" path 404s.
    return invoice_files.file_response(
        invoice.file_path,                 # relative to base_dir
        filename=f"fatura-{invoice.number}.pdf",
        as_attachment=True,                # force a download dialog
    )

Any relative path that escapes base_dir (../ traversal, absolute paths, symlink escapes) raises NotFoundException (404) instead of leaking the file — the same 404 you get for a genuinely missing file, so callers never distinguish "forbidden" from "absent". file_response guesses the MIME type from the filename (override with media_type=), and as_attachment=False serves inline (e.g. preview a PDF in-browser).

For payloads built on the fly — a generated report, an in-memory zip, decrypted bytes — use stream() instead of touching disk:

import io

from fastapi.responses import StreamingResponse

from src.core.storage import invoice_files


@router.get("/{invoice_id}/receipt.csv")
async def download_receipt(
    invoice_id: UUID,
    current: UserModel = Depends(get_current_user),
    controller: InvoiceController = Depends(get_invoice_controller),
) -> StreamingResponse:
    csv_bytes: bytes = await controller.render_receipt_csv(invoice_id, current.id)
    return invoice_files.stream(
        csv_bytes,                         # bytes, or a (sync/async) byte generator
        filename="recibo.csv",
    )

stream() accepts raw bytes, a sync Iterable[bytes], or an AsyncIterable[bytes], so a large export can be yielded chunk-by-chunk without buffering it all in memory. Both methods set a UTF-8-safe Content-Disposition (non-ASCII filenames survive via the RFC 5987 filename* parameter); build_content_disposition() is exported if you need to set that header on a hand-rolled response.


Transactional email

Password reset flow using EmailUtils + a short-lived JWT. Requires the [email] extra.
