lol this was my first time doing anything web related i've come a long way.. keeping this to reflect on :)

Simple FastAPI based backend

Introduction

A backend I was developing for a personal projects & learning. Realized that it would likely make a good template / starting point for my own future projects, so I've changed this repo to just be that backend... Lol

Current Status

As of now, the backend connects to a SQL Database using SQLAlchemy, and has a table for Users, and Sessions, as well as the following endpoints:

POST ENDPOINTS:

• POST /user/ to create a user.
• POST /session/login to login to an account (creates a session in the session database with a session id and a foreign key to the user)
• POST /session/logout to logout of an account (deletes all sessions in the session database for a user)
• POST /session/auth to get a short lived JWT Auth token, required to update or delete your account when logged in.

GET ENDPOINTS:

• GET /user/me to get the user info for the user associated with the current session
• GET /user/{user_id} to get the user info associated with the user with {user_id}
• GET /user/ to get a specified number of users, takes arguments skip and limit...

PUT ENDPOINTS:

• PUT /user/me to update information about the user for the current session, requires auth.

DELETE ENDPOINTS

• DELETE /user/me to delete the current user, requires auth.

im not givin yall detailed documentation this my shi go read the code.

Next steps:

• Move over to asynchronous
• Improve session model, perhaps switch to JWT tokens + refresh tokens, or at least switch session id's away from integers.
• Implement user permission levels
• Make it have more swag
• Talk to a girl for the first time
