A common pattern I've seen across teams: a task gets queued, something silently fails on the publishing side, and the debugging session starts with no traces and no clear recovery process.
 After running into these issues repeatedly, I mapped out six stages of reliability for Celery/RabbitMQ setups:
  
Best Effort: fire-and-forget, at-most-once delivery, tasks can vanish silently
 Transactional Boundary: wrapping commands in atomic transactions to prevent out-of-sync data
 Publishing on Commit: using delay_on_commit so tasks aren't queued before the transaction succeeds
 Publisher Confirms: getting actual confirmation that the broker received and persisted the message
 Outbox Pattern: persisting intent to the database first, dispatching later, giving you at-least-once delivery
 Clusters and Quorum Queues: replication strategies and where classic queues can still lose messages

<div class="md">Hi everyone, I want to re-introduce my package <a href="https://github.com/huynguyengl99/chanx">ChanX</a>, an extension for Django Channels that makes WebSocket and realtime app development and maintenance much easier. As a developer who has been heavily working on realtime applications (group messaging, realtime voice handling with Deepgram integration, AI assistant chat), I always wished there was a package that could extend Django Channels to provide: <ul> <li>Easier WebSocket (chat/data) handling without if-else hell</li> <li>Type safety that works with mypy and pyright to catch errors before writing tests or going live in production</li> <li>Auto-documentation with AsyncAPI-compatible docs autogenerated from code, similar to how drf-spectacular generates OpenAPI from DRF serializers</li> <li>Testing utilities that make testing flows predictable and correct</li> <li>Logging helpers, like django-structlog, to trace what was received and what was sent in a message handling flow</li> <li>Even a command line tool to generate code from the generated docs (e.g. for other microservices to use)</li> </ul> And if you have ever used Django Channels to handle WebSocket/realtime messaging, I think you have likely run into these same problems: <ul> <li>Inconsistent implementations between consumers: some use if-else, some use match-case, resulting in messy logic</li> <li>Painful code reviews, since you cannot tell when something will respond or what it accepts without carefully reading through the full code end to end</li> <li>Slow onboarding and slow integration with other teams (e.g. frontend) due to the lack of any documentation or API contract (AsyncAPI docs are very helpful here)</li> <li>Testing that is hard and unpredictable, since the default testing in Django Channels is based on timing or the first response, but sometimes we need more</li> <li>Difficulty tracing how and where the code runs</li> </ul> So I built ChanX based on what I have done, faced, and wished I had for my last project. I am using it now and I love it. I built it with careful design and active maintenance, so I hope you find it useful and never have to face these problems again. Some use cases where ChanX works well: <ul> <li>Realtime messaging (one-on-one or group chat with broadcasting and notifications)</li> <li>Realtime voice assistants (e.g. Deepgram, OpenAI) or chat assistants with streaming responses</li> <li>Any scenario that involves group messaging, broadcasting, or push notifications over WebSocket</li> </ul> Also, some people have suggested using SSE rather than WebSocket when working with Django. I think in simple cases that would be fine, but I prefer the WebSocket/Channels approach because we get proper async handling and proper documentation (AsyncAPI). Here are the links for my package: <ul> <li>Github: <a href="https://github.com/huynguyengl99/chanx">https://github.com/huynguyengl99/chanx</a></li> <li>PyPI: <a href="https://pypi.org/project/chanx">https://pypi.org/project/chanx</a></li> <li>Documentation: <a href="https://chanx.readthedocs.io/">https://chanx.readthedocs.io/</a></li> <li>Tutorial for newcomers: <a href="https://chanx.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tutorial-django/prerequisites.html">https://chanx.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tutorial-django/prerequisites.html</a></li> </ul> Hope you all find it useful. </div> &#32; submitted by &#32; <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/huygl99"> /u/huygl99 </a> <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/django/comments/1so5ggu/chanx_an_extension_library_for_django_channels/">[link]</a> &#32; <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/django/comments/1so5ggu/chanx_an_extension_library_for_django_channels/">[comments]</a>

Hi everyone, I want to re-introduce my package ChanX, an extension for Django Channels that makes WebSocket and realtime app development and maintenance much easier.
 As a developer who has been heavily working on realtime applications (group messaging, realtime voice handling with Deepgram integration, AI assistant chat), I always wished there was a package that could extend Django Channels to provide:
  
Easier WebSocket (chat/data) handling without if-else hell
 Type safety that works with mypy and pyright to catch errors before writing tests or going live in production
 Auto-documentation with AsyncAPI-compatible docs autogenerated from code, similar to how drf-spectacular generates OpenAPI from DRF serializers
 Testing utilities that make testing flows predictable and correct
 Logging helpers, like django-structlog, to trace what was received and what was sent in a message handling flow
 Even a command line tool to generate code from the generated docs (e.g. for other microservices to use)
  
And if you have ever used Django Channels to handle WebSocket/realtime messaging, I think you have likely run into these same problems:
  
Inconsistent implementations between consumers: some use if-else, some use match-case, resulting in messy logic
 Painful code reviews, since you cannot tell when something will respond or what it accepts without carefully reading through the full code end to end
 Slow onboarding and slow integration with other teams (e.g. frontend) due to the lack of any documentation or API contract (AsyncAPI docs are very helpful here)
 Testing that is hard and unpredictable, since the default testing in Django Channels is based on timing or the first response, but sometimes we need more
 Difficulty tracing how and where the code runs
  
So I built ChanX based on what I have done, faced, and wished I had for my last project. I am using it now and I love it. I built it with careful design and active maintenance, so I hope you find it useful and never have to face these problems again.
 Some use cases where ChanX works well:
  
Realtime messaging (one-on-one or group chat with broadcasting and notifications)
 Realtime voice assistants (e.g. Deepgram, OpenAI) or chat assistants with streaming responses
 Any scenario that involves group messaging, broadcasting, or push notifications over WebSocket
  
Also, some people have suggested using SSE rather than WebSocket when working with Django. I think in simple cases that would be fine, but I prefer the WebSocket/Channels approach because we get proper async handling and proper documentation (AsyncAPI).
 Here are the links for my package:
  
Github: https://github.com/huynguyengl99/chanx
 PyPI: https://pypi.org/project/chanx
 Documentation: https://chanx.readthedocs.io/
 Tutorial for newcomers: https://chanx.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tutorial-django/prerequisites.html
  
Hope you all find it useful.

The goal is not to replace serious production auth platforms. It is more for prototypes, internal tools, learning projects, and people who want readable OAuth code they can actually modify. I kinda use this a lot to build internal applications at work: hence this is super useful for me.

Nothing new here, a while ago I needed to add OAuth login to a FastAPI project. [REPO]
 But as u know: I kept running into the same setup work:
 - redirect URI mismatches - provider-specific config - state handling - callback routes - env variables - example code that was either too abstract or incomplete 
 So I spent some time turning the setup I kept rewriting into a small open-source package: [REPO]
 Install:
 pip install oauth-for-dummies 
 Then inside a FastAPI project:
 oauth-init 
 It scaffolds:
 - oauth_config.py - oauth_routes.py - oauth_example_app.py - .env template 
 Right now it supports GitHub and Google OAuth.
 The goal is not to replace serious production auth platforms. It is more for prototypes, internal tools, learning projects, and people who want readable OAuth code they can actually modify. I kinda use this a lot to build internal applications at work: hence this is super useful for me. And it literally solves most of the "auth" part of any application, and I never build the user database or store passwords (for internal tools I meant)
 I’d appreciate feedback from users, this was just a quick impromptu build. Just wanted to share this to help anyone who finds this useful, 
 And yes: i can add the 2.1 requirement almost easily too.

I got tired of rebuilding OAuth for FastAPI projects, so I made a small CLI for it

 A quick summary of what it does today:
  
Retries with delay and exponential backoff per function
 Task IDs and lifecycle tracking: PENDING, RUNNING, SUCCESS, FAILED, INTERRUPTED
 Live dashboard at /tasks/dashboard with filtering, search, per-task logs, and stack traces
 SQLite out of the box, Redis as an optional extra
 Pending tasks at shutdown are re-dispatched on next startup
 Idempotency keys to prevent duplicate runs
 Argument encryption for tasks carrying sensitive data
 Concurrency controls: opt-in semaphore for async tasks, dedicated thread pool for sync tasks
  
It is not a distributed task queue. No broker, no separate workers. It does support multi-instance deployments with SQLite on the same host or Redis across hosts, with atomic requeue claiming and shared task history. But tasks still run inside the web process, not on dedicated workers.

The requirements: - Upload Word templates with Jinja2 variables - Create meetings with audio recordings - Associate multiple templates with each meeting - Fill template data (either AI-generated or manual entry) - Generate Word docs, convert to PDF, merge them in order - Download the final merged PDF Standard CRUD stuff, but with file uploads, many-to-many relationships, and some custom actions. Perfect test case. Backend: FastAPI with async SQLAlchemy, PostgreSQL, Alembic migrations. About 2,000 lines of Python across models, services, repositories, and routers. Full OpenAPI spec auto-generated by FastAPI. Frontend: Pointed UIGen at the generated yaml. <h3>Improvements that were made</h3> 1. Too Much Noise in the UI FastAPI generates comprehensive specs. That&#39;s great for documentation, but not every endpoint needs to be in the UI. I had internal metrics endpoints, health checks. I didn&#39;t want to modify my FastAPI code or the generated spec just to hide these. Fix: Built vendor extension support, starting with <code>x-uigen-ignore</code>. Now I can annotate my OpenAPI spec: <code>yaml paths: /internal/metrics: x-uigen-ignore: true /users: get: x-uigen-ignore: false # Explicitly include post: x-uigen-ignore: true # Hide this specific operation </code> Or better yet, use the config system (using the cli) so the spec stays untouched: ```yaml <h1>.uigen/config.yaml</h1> annotations: POST:/internal/metrics: x-uigen-ignore: true User.internal_id: x-uigen-ignore: true ``` Works on operations, paths, schema properties, and parameters. Operation-level annotations override path-level ones. 2. File Uploads FastAPI makes file uploads trivial with <code>UploadFile</code>. But UIGen had no idea what to do with <code>type: string, format: binary</code> in the spec. Fix: Added file upload detection across both OpenAPI 3.x and Swagger 2.0. UIGen now generates a drag-and-drop file upload component with: - Type validation (images, documents, videos) - Size limits from <code>x-uigen-max-file-size</code> - Preview thumbnails - Proper <code>multipart/form-data</code> handling 3. Ugly Field Labels Pydantic field names like <code>created_at</code>, <code>user_id</code>, and <code>is_active</code> get auto-humanized to &quot;Created At&quot;, &quot;User Id&quot;, &quot;Is Active&quot;. Close, but not always right. And I didn&#39;t want to change my Python code just for UI labels. Fix: Added <code>x-uigen-label</code> vendor extension: ```yaml <h1>In spec or config</h1> User.created_at: x-uigen-label: &quot;Created At&quot; User.user_id: x-uigen-label: &quot;User ID&quot; ``` Now labels are exactly what I want without touching the FastAPI models. 5. Config Without Touching the Spec I wanted to hide internal endpoints, rename ugly field labels, and tweak the UI without modifying my FastAPI code or the generated OpenAPI spec. Fix: Built a config reconciliation system. You create a <code>.uigen/config.yaml</code> file with all your customizations, and UIGen merges them at runtime without touching your source spec: <code>yaml annotations: POST:/internal/metrics: x-uigen-ignore: true User.created_at: x-uigen-label: &quot;Created At&quot; POST:/auth/login: x-uigen-login: true </code> Your spec stays clean, your FastAPI code stays clean, but the UI reflects your preferences.

Hey veryone, 
 So a few days back, I shared UIGen here - a tool that generates a full React frontend from your FastAPI OpenAPI spec. The response was very encouraging.
 So I iterated on it with a better usecase app.
 The Test Case: AI powered Meeting Minutes Generator
 I needed an internal tool for work. The requirements: - Upload Word templates with Jinja2 variables - Create meetings with audio recordings - Associate multiple templates with each meeting - Fill template data (either AI-generated or manual entry) - Generate Word docs, convert to PDF, merge them in order - Download the final merged PDF
 Standard CRUD stuff, but with file uploads, many-to-many relationships, and some custom actions. Perfect test case.
 Backend: FastAPI with async SQLAlchemy, PostgreSQL, Alembic migrations. About 2,000 lines of Python across models, services, repositories, and routers. Full OpenAPI spec auto-generated by FastAPI.
 Frontend: Pointed UIGen at the generated yaml.
 Improvements that were made
 1. Too Much Noise in the UI
 FastAPI generates comprehensive specs. That's great for documentation, but not every endpoint needs to be in the UI. I had internal metrics endpoints, health checks.
 I didn't want to modify my FastAPI code or the generated spec just to hide these.
 Fix: Built vendor extension support, starting with x-uigen-ignore. Now I can annotate my OpenAPI spec:
 yaml paths: /internal/metrics: x-uigen-ignore: true /users: get: x-uigen-ignore: false # Explicitly include post: x-uigen-ignore: true # Hide this specific operation 
 Or better yet, use the config system (using the cli) so the spec stays untouched:
 ```yaml
 .uigen/config.yaml
 annotations: POST:/internal/metrics: x-uigen-ignore: true User.internal_id: x-uigen-ignore: true ```
 Works on operations, paths, schema properties, and parameters. Operation-level annotations override path-level ones.
 2. File Uploads
 FastAPI makes file uploads trivial with UploadFile. But UIGen had no idea what to do with type: string, format: binary in the spec.
 Fix: Added file upload detection across both OpenAPI 3.x and Swagger 2.0. UIGen now generates a drag-and-drop file upload component with: - Type validation (images, documents, videos) - Size limits from x-uigen-max-file-size - Preview thumbnails - Proper multipart/form-data handling
 3. Ugly Field Labels
 Pydantic field names like created_at, user_id, and is_active get auto-humanized to "Created At", "User Id", "Is Active". Close, but not always right. And I didn't want to change my Python code just for UI labels.
 Fix: Added x-uigen-label vendor extension:
 ```yaml
 In spec or config
 User.created_at: x-uigen-label: "Created At" User.user_id: x-uigen-label: "User ID" ```
 Now labels are exactly what I want without touching the FastAPI models.
 5. Config Without Touching the Spec
 I wanted to hide internal endpoints, rename ugly field labels, and tweak the UI without modifying my FastAPI code or the generated OpenAPI spec.
 Fix: Built a config reconciliation system. You create a .uigen/config.yaml file with all your customizations, and UIGen merges them at runtime without touching your source spec:
 yaml annotations: POST:/internal/metrics: x-uigen-ignore: true User.created_at: x-uigen-label: "Created At" POST:/auth/login: x-uigen-login: true 
 Your spec stays clean, your FastAPI code stays clean, but the UI reflects your preferences.
 There's a visual config GUI (npx @uigen-dev/cli config openapi.yaml) so you don't have to write YAML by hand. Point-and-click to hide endpoints, rename fields, and customize the theme.
 What Actually Works Now
 After building this app and fixing the gaps, here's what UIGen generates from my FastAPI spec:
  
Table views with sorting, pagination, and filtering (query params from the spec)
 Create/edit forms with validation matching my Pydantic models
 Detail views with related resource links (meetings → templates)
 File upload UI for template and recording uploads
 Custom action buttons - "Generate Documents", "Convert to PDF", "Download PDF"
 Full authentication cycle - login, signup, password reset, token storage, automatic header injection
 Vendor extensions - x-uigen-ignore, x-uigen-label, x-uigen-login for customization
 Config GUI - visual editor for annotations and theme customization
 Dark/light theme toggle
  
Try It Yourself
 The meeting minutes app is in the UIGen repo as a full example:
 ```bash git clone https://github.com/darula-hpp/uigen cd examples/apps/fastapi/meeting-minutes
 Start backend (FastAPI + PostgreSQL)
 docker compose up -d docker compose exec app alembic upgrade head
 Generate frontend
 cd ../../../ pnpm install && pnpm build npx @uigen-dev/cli serve examples/apps/fastapi/meeting-minutes/openapi.yaml ```
 Or try it on your own FastAPI app:
 bash npx @uigen-dev/cli serve http://localhost:8000/openapi.json 
 Limitations
 There are still gaps:
  
Circular references - Deeply nested recursive Pydantic models might skip the deepest levels
 Complex relationships - Many-to-many with extra fields on the join table needs manual handling
 Custom validation - Pydantic validators with custom logic don't translate to the frontend
 WebSockets - Not supported yet
 Streaming responses - Not supported
 GraphQL - OpenAPI/REST only for now
 Every OAuth variant - Works for Bearer/API Key/Basic, but not every custom auth flow
  
V1 will probably be suited for internal tools, admin panels, and rapid prototyping. Not a replacement for a polished consumer-facing app with custom UX requirements. But yeah, its an intereting challenge to include even more usecases.
 What's Next
 I'm trying to figure out: - Better relationship detection and easy relationship config. - A non bloat way to do layout customizations
 - Adding Polish & a non Bloat way to configure your app (App name etc)
 If you've built a FastAPI app and want to see what UIGen generates, I'd love feedback. The more real-world specs I test against, the better this gets.

Hi everyone, I want to share with you both of my packages, which are mainly for improving FastAPI (and any ASGI-compatible library) when it comes to WebSocket handling.
 First, FastAPI's WebSocket handling is fairly simple with @app.websocket where you define the flow and run the loop (while True), but this can lead to some problems:
  
Harder to debug and separate code
 No way to broadcast messages. FastAPI's official guide uses a ConnectionManager as a simple class, but it is in-memory, fragile, and hard to scale
 FastAPI also mentions: "If you need something easy to integrate with FastAPI but that is more robust, supported by Redis, PostgreSQL or others, check encode/broadcaster." However, broadcaster is no longer maintained as "This repository was archived by the owner on Aug 19, 2025. It is now read-only." (unfortunate)
 No real way to send messages from another thread, a background job, or even an API endpoint without resorting to workarounds
  
Based on that, and with the knowledge I gained from Django Channels, I ported the Django Channels library to be fully FastAPI-compatible. The result is FastChannels, which solves exactly the problems above.
 On top of that, when working with WebSocket (in both Django and FastAPI), my team and I usually face these problems:
  
Manual if-else routing chains when receiving a WebSocket message
 Manual validation of the messages we receive
 Runtime type surprises
 No source of truth for documentation (almost never seen, even though we have the AsyncAPI standard now)
 Testing that is painfully hard
 Painful code reviews and onboarding, since we need to scroll and read a lot to understand what messages are accepted, what the implementation does, and what gets returned
 No logging utility or standard like structlog for request and response tracing
  
Due to those problems, I created ChanX as a library that improves the way we build WebSocket handling. Now, thanks to ChanX, we get:
  
No more endless if-else logic or 200-line functions that just route to the correct message handler. We simply define messages with the correct type, and thanks to Pydantic's type discriminator, they are automatically routed to the correct handler
 No more manual message validation, as Pydantic is the standard for defining both incoming and outgoing messages
 Type hints by default, with mypy and pyright support
 A testing framework included to make testing easier and more predictable
 And notably, auto-generated AsyncAPI documentation based on the code you define, similar to how FastAPI auto-generates OpenAPI docs from your code
 A CLI helper to generate code from AsyncAPI docs as well
  
So, here is how it looks
 https://preview.redd.it/3v9rtltg5svg1.png?width=1348&format=png&auto=webp&s=c1dfecbbd58ae7040a3e58f8a85aeb73378c1c08
 I built ChanX based on what I have done, faced, and wished I had for my last project. I am using it now and I love it. I built it with careful design and active maintenance, so I hope you find it useful and never have to face these problems again.
 Some use cases where these work well:
  
Realtime messaging (one-on-one or group chat with broadcasting and notifications)
 Realtime voice assistants (e.g. Deepgram, OpenAI) or chat assistants with streaming responses
 Any scenario that involves group messaging, broadcasting, or push notifications over WebSocket

FastChannels and ChanX: The missing toolkit for WebSocket handling in FastAPI

<div class="md">Hey everyone, I&#39;m learning FastAPI and I&#39;m building a file upload endpoint for audio files (WAV, MP3, FLAC, OGG). Here&#39;s what I have so far: - Filename sanitization + path traversal protection - Magic bytes validation (not just extension checking) - Chunked streaming write to avoid loading the whole file into memory - Size limit of 1GB checked incrementally during streaming - Early rejection via Content-Length header - Proper HTTP status codes (413, 415, 422...) Now I need to tackle two things and I&#39;d love some guidance: 1. Checksum validation I want to verify file integrity after upload — hash the file server-side during streaming (sha256) and compare it against a hash the client sends. But I&#39;m thinking from the user&#39;s perspective: the user should just curl the endpoint or click an upload button, nothing more. So how should the client send the hash without adding friction? Header? Something else? 2. Resumable uploads Same user-first thinking — if the network drops mid-upload, when it comes back the upload should continue from where it stopped, not restart. The user shouldn&#39;t have to do anything special, just upload like normal. How would you handle both of these in FastAPI? Any advice or resources appreciated! <pre><code>from fastapi import FastAPI, UploadFile, HTTPException, Request, File from fastapi.responses import FileResponse from pydantic import BaseModel from pathlib import Path import re from hashlib import HASH, sha256 import aiofiles UPLOAD_DIR = Path(&quot;uploads&quot;) UPLOAD_DIR.mkdir(exist_ok=True) MAGIC_BYTES = {b&#39;RIFF&#39;, b&#39;ID3\x00&#39;, b&#39;fLaC&#39;, b&#39;OggS&#39;} CHUNK_SIZE = 5 * 1024 * 1024 MAX_FILE_SIZE = 1 * 1024 * 1024 * 1024 class UploadResponse(BaseModel): filename: str size: int app = FastAPI(tags_metadata=[ { &quot;name&quot;: &quot;files&quot;, &quot;description&quot;: &quot;Operations related to audio file management&quot; } ]) def sanitize_filename(filename: str | None) -&gt; Path: if filename is None: raise HTTPException(status_code=422, detail=&quot;Filename is missing&quot;) filename = Path(filename).name filename = re.sub(r&quot;[^\w \- .]&quot;, &quot;_&quot;, filename) file_path = (UPLOAD_DIR / filename).resolve() if not file_path.is_relative_to(UPLOAD_DIR.resolve()): raise HTTPException(status_code=400, detail=&quot;Invalid filename&quot;) return file_path async def check_magic_bytes(file: UploadFile) -&gt; None: first_bytes = await file.read(4) if first_bytes not in MAGIC_BYTES: raise HTTPException(status_code=415, detail=&quot;Unsupported file type&quot;) await file.seek(0) def compare_checksum(file_path: Path, server_hash: HASH, client_hash: HASH) -&gt; None: if server_hash != client_hash: file_path.unlink() # delete the incomplete file raise HTTPException(status_code=400, detail=&quot;File corrupted&quot;) async def save_file(request: Request, file_path: Path, file: UploadFile) -&gt; None: hasher = sha256() file_size = 0 length = request.headers.get(&quot;content-length&quot;) if not length or int(length) &gt; MAX_FILE_SIZE: raise HTTPException(413, &quot;Max size is 1GB&quot;) async with aiofiles.open(file_path, &quot;wb&quot;) as f: while True: chunk = await file.read(CHUNK_SIZE) if not chunk: break file_size += len(chunk) if file_size &gt; MAX_FILE_SIZE: file_path.unlink() raise HTTPException(status_code=413) hasher.update(chunk) await f.write(chunk) u/app.post(&quot;/api/v4/upload&quot;, response_model=UploadResponse, summary=&quot;Upload an audio file&quot;, description=( &quot;Upload an audio file (WAV, MP3, FLAC, OGG). &quot; &quot;Max file size is 1GB. &quot; &quot;File type is validated via magic bytes, not extension.&quot; ), responses={ 200: {&quot;description&quot;: &quot;File uploaded successfully&quot;}, 400: {&quot;description&quot;: &quot;Path traversal attempt detected&quot;}, 413: {&quot;description&quot;: &quot;File exceeds the 1GB size limit&quot;}, 415: {&quot;description&quot;: &quot;Unsupported file type&quot;}, 422: {&quot;description&quot;: &quot;Filename is missing or invalid&quot;}, }, tags=[&quot;files&quot;] ) async def upload_file(request: Request, file: UploadFile = File(..., description=&quot;Audio file to upload (WAV, MP3, FLAC, OGG).

Learning FastAPI — built a file upload endpoint, need advice on checksum and resumable uploads

<div class="md">So, for a while now I noticed something. The way we write APIs and call them from the frontend still feels ancient. We have to manually sync types between the backend and frontend, across different languages, which adds more space for error. We have to write lots of REST boilerplate. We have to deal with JSON and HTTP overhead on the smallest of operations. And things like live streaming or realtime (which are essential for AI apps) are being reinvented again and again. So I created something else: the FUSE stack. It uses FastAPI for the backend, uv for package management, Svelte 5 for the frontend, and Ephaptic to tie it all together.

Been working on backend APIs for a while and the part I've always hated most is writing integration tests. Not because testing is bad - but because you're basically guessing. You guess the payload structure, guess which edge cases matter, guess which status codes to assert.
 Half the time production breaks on something your tests never covered, because real users do stuff you didn't think of.
 So I built Httrace. You add one middleware line, it captures real HTTP traffic in the background, and then you run httrace generate and it writes pytest files directly into your repo.
 Python
 app.add\_middleware(HttraceCaptureMiddleware, api\_key="ht\_...")
 Bash
 $ httrace generate
 ✓ 127 tests across 14 endpoints → ./tests/integration/
 "What about Keploy / Speedscale / GoReplay?"
