Here's my thought on 💭 Header Parameters - FastAPI
Getting request headers in fastapi has a pretty nice stetup, it allows you to get headers values as function arguments,
I was able to use headers to detect if a request was made from htmx or not.
If the request was made from htmx, then we want a html format, otherwise I'm probably hitting the api programatically from something like
curlorpython
@post_router.post("/post/")
async def post_post(
request: Request,
post: PostCreate,
current_user: Annotated[User, Depends(try_get_current_active_user)],
session: Session = Depends(get_session),
is_hx_request: Annotated[str | None, Header()] = None,
) -> PostRead:
"create a post"
print('hx_request', hx_request)
db_post = Post.from_orm(post)
session.add(db_post)
session.commit()
session.refresh(db_post)
if is_hx_request:
return templates.TemplateResponse("post_item.html", {"request": request, "config": config, "post": db_post})
return db_post
