An example of a generic CLI which builds itself dynamically around an existing FastAPI backend endpoints.
This work is based on a lecture given by Oliver Rew at EuroPython 2023.
It has been modified in order to utilise Typer's rich CLI capabilities.
In order to start the local server, install the requirements using "pip" and then run
uvicorn server.app:app --reload
Then open a new terminal and run
pip install .
Assuming everything worked, you can run
dcli --help
to see the Typer help message, available commands etc.
*You can - of course - skip the local installation of dcli call directly:
python dyncli.py --help
