Environment Variables¶

Configure FastHTTP using environment variables.

Basic Usage¶

import os
from fasthttp import FastHTTP

app = FastHTTP(
    debug=os.getenv("DEBUG", "false").lower() == "true",
    http2=os.getenv("HTTP2", "false").lower() == "true",
    get_request={
        "headers": {
            "Authorization": f"Bearer {os.getenv('API_TOKEN')}",
            "User-Agent": os.getenv("USER_AGENT", "MyApp/1.0"),
        },
        "timeout": float(os.getenv("TIMEOUT", "30.0")),
    },
)

Example .env File¶

# .env
DEBUG=true
HTTP2=false
API_TOKEN=your-secret-token
USER_AGENT=MyApp/1.0
TIMEOUT=30.0

Using python-dotenv¶

from dotenv import load_dotenv
import os

load_dotenv()  # Load .env file

app = FastHTTP(
    debug=os.getenv("DEBUG") == "true",
    get_request={
        "headers": {
            "Authorization": f"Bearer {os.getenv('API_TOKEN')}",
        }
    }
)

Install:

pip install python-dotenv
