Pull Request Description: Adding Database Disconnect

This pull request introduces a new asynchronous method, disconnect, to the async_database.py module, allowing for a clean and efficient disconnection from the database engine. This change is crucial for resource management, ensuring that database connections are properly closed when they are no longer needed, which can help prevent resource leaks and improve the overall stability of the application.

Motivation:

  • Resource Management: Properly disconnecting from the database is essential to avoid exhausting database connections, which can lead to performance degradation and application crashes.
  • Improved Stability: This addition enhances the application's robustness by ensuring that connections are closed gracefully, especially in scenarios where the application is shutting down or reinitializing.
  • Enhanced Logging: The new method includes logging to track disconnection events, aiding in debugging and monitoring.

Changes Made:

  • Added the disconnect method in async_database.py, which disposes of the database engine and logs the disconnection process.
  • Updated the lifespan context manager in fastapi_example.py to call the new disconnect method during application shutdown, ensuring that resources are released appropriately.
  • Minor updates in documentation and logging to reflect the new functionality.

Impact on the Project:
This change significantly enhances the project's database handling capabilities, contributing to better resource management and application performance. It aligns with best practices for asynchronous programming in FastAPI and promotes a more maintainable codebase.
