create_app#

mobu.main.create_app(*, load_config=True, startup=None)#

Create the FastAPI application.

This is in a function rather than using a global variable (as is more typical for FastAPI) because some routing depends on configuration settings and we therefore want to recreate the application between tests.

Parameters:

  • load_config (bool, default: True) – If set to False, do not try to load the configuration. This is used primarily for OpenAPI schema generation, where constructing the app is required but the configuration won’t matter.

  • startup (Awaitable[None] | None, default: None) – Additional code to run during application startup, used by the test suite when running mobu in a separate process to test monkeyflocker.

Return type:

FastAPI
