FastAPI HTTP Proxy Application

Introduction

This FastAPI application serves as an HTTP proxy, forwarding client requests to an upstream API server and relaying the server's response back to the client. It supports arbitrary paths and HTTP methods, providing a versatile proxy solution for various API interactions.

Requirements

Python 3.6 or higher
FastAPI
Uvicorn
HTTPX

K3S

Quick Start

curl -sfL https://get.k3s.io | sh -

Electron apps

Slide deck frameworks supporting Markdown source

pymongo vs Motor

Motor is an async Python driver for MongoDB.

When should I use Motor?

You should use Motor when you're trying to interact with a MongoDB database in an asynchronous context. When you're making something that needs to be asynchronous (like a web server, or most commonly from what I've seen here, Discord bots), you also want all the database calls to be done asynchronously. But pymongo is synchronous, i.e it is blocking, and will block the execution of your asynchronous program for the time that it is talking to the database.

Okay, How do I switch now?!

Thankfully for us, switching from pymongo to Motor isn't too hard, and won't need you to change much code. This process can be roughly summarized as:

Step 1: Install Motor, and import it

Installing can be done with pip - pip install motor

PdfLatex is a tool that converts Latex sources into PDF. This is specifically very important for researchers, as they use it to publish their findings. It could be installed very easily using Linux terminal, though this seems an annoying task on Windows. Installation commands are given below.

Install the TexLive base

sudo apt-get install texlive-latex-base

Also install the recommended and extra fonts to avoid running into the error [1], when trying to use pdflatex on latex files with more fonts.

Generate a PDF from a Markdown file with Pandoc

Easy Steps For Mac OS

Have Homebrew installed and a markdown file you want to render to PDF.
Install Pandoc brew install pandoc
Install basictex brew cask install basictex - needed for the pdflatex tool.
Symlink the pdflatex to your /usr/local/bin so pandoc can easily find it. ln -s /Library/TeX/Root/bin/x86_64-darwin/pdflatex /usr/local/bin/pdflatex
Use Pandoc to generate a PDF from a Markdown file. pandoc input.md -o output.pdf

By default the margins are pretty large. To optionally change the margins: pandoc input.md -o output.pdf -V geometry:margin=1in

	This is Python's http.server that has been bundled to an .exe using PyInstaller. You can use it as a local web server for testing.

	Run the local server
	1. Copy the server.exe into the folder you want to serve and then double click it to start the local server.
	2. A window will pop up letting you know the server is running on port 8000.
	3. Open http://localhost:8000/ in your web browser.
	4. When you are done, simply close the server.exe window to stop the local server.

	If you have another service running on port 8000, you can run on a different port like so:
	1. Open Command Prompt
