Our FastAPI integration lets you instrument individual HTTP requests. Please note that Blackfire supports FastAPI `0.51.0` and higher.
The recommended way to use Blackfire with FastAPI is to use the blackfire-python command, as it configures the needed bits for you.
Run your webserver with blackfire-python
command:
1
blackfire-python uvicorn main:app
Or with hypercorn
:
1
blackfire-python hypercorn main:app
If you prefer configuring FastAPI manually, you can add the following call manually within your code:
1 2
import blackfire
blackfire.patch_all()
This call should be made as early as possible in the lifecycle of an application,
ideally before any other import
statements.
Then, restart your server.
You can use the blackfire curl
command to profile specific requests:
1
blackfire curl http://localhost:8000/polls/1/results
You can also use one of our browser extensions for Firefox or Chrome.
