SAFRS: Python OpenAPI & JSON:API Framework
Expose SQLAlchemy models as JSON:API resources with auto-generated OpenAPI documentation for Flask and FastAPI.
What is SAFRS: Python OpenAPI & JSON:API Framework?
SAFRS is a Python library that automatically generates JSON:API-compliant REST APIs from SQLAlchemy models. It solves the problem of writing repetitive boilerplate code for CRUD operations by providing ready-to-use endpoints with filtering, sorting, pagination, and relationship handling. The library also auto-generates OpenAPI/Swagger documentation, making API exploration and integration straightforward.
Backend developers building data-driven web services with Python, especially those using SQLAlchemy ORM and needing JSON:API compliance. It's ideal for teams wanting rapid API prototyping or maintaining consistent API standards.
Developers choose SAFRS because it dramatically reduces development time by automating API creation from existing SQLAlchemy models while ensuring strict JSON:API compliance. Its built-in OpenAPI documentation and support for both Flask and FastAPI provide flexibility without sacrificing standardization.
