fastapi-jsonrpc

JSON-RPC 2.0 server on top of FastAPI. Write JSON-RPC methods the same way you write FastAPI endpoints and get OpenAPI, Swagger UI and OpenRPC for free.

📚 Documentation: https://smagafurov.github.io/fastapi-jsonrpc/

Install

pip install fastapi-jsonrpc

Minimal example

import fastapi_jsonrpc as jsonrpc
from pydantic import BaseModel
from fastapi import Body


app = jsonrpc.API()
api_v1 = jsonrpc.Entrypoint('/api/v1/jsonrpc')


class MyError(jsonrpc.BaseError):
    CODE = 5000
    MESSAGE = 'My error'

    class DataModel(BaseModel):
        details: str


@api_v1.method(errors=[MyError])
def echo(data: str = Body(..., examples=['hello'])) -> str:
    if data == 'error':
        raise MyError(data={'details': 'boom'})
    return data


app.bind_entrypoint(api_v1)


if __name__ == '__main__':
    import uvicorn
    uvicorn.run('app:app', port=5000, access_log=False)

Run it with uvicorn and open:

• POST /api/v1/jsonrpc — JSON-RPC endpoint
• GET /docs — Swagger UI
• GET /openapi.json — OpenAPI schema
• GET /openrpc.json — OpenRPC schema

Features

• All of FastAPI — Depends, Body, Header, Cookie, Pydantic models, async/await.
• Auto-generated OpenAPI and OpenRPC schemas.
• Typed errors with Pydantic DataModel included in the schema.
• Batch requests and notifications.
• Context-manager JSON-RPC middlewares.
• Optional Sentry integration (fastapi_jsonrpc.contrib.sentry.FastApiJsonRPCIntegration).
• Pytest plugin for capturing JSON-RPC errors in tests.
