FastAPI-Powered Resource Orchestration Engine (FORGE)
A robust backend service built with FastAPI to govern lifecycle operations (creation, retrieval, modification, termination) for data records, strictly enforcing user identity verification and maintaining an exhaustive audit trail. Features include server-side pagination for large result sets and persistent storage managed via an SQLite backend.

FORGE: Resource Orchestration Engine
An infrastructure layer implemented using FastAPI, leveraging an SQLite data store, complete with JSON Web Token (JWT) authorization and detailed operational telemetry.
Core Capabilities
- Identity Verification: Secure user access control via JWT mechanisms.
- Data Manipulation Verbs: Full spectrum support for resource modification: Create, Retrieve, Update, and Destroy (CRUD).
- Access Control: Granular permissions tied to record ownership.
- Result Paging: Efficient delivery of large datasets via parameterized pagination.
- Persistence Layer: Integration with SQLite utilizing SQLAlchemy ORM.
- Telemetry System: Extensive logging architecture featuring automated log file rotation.
- Performance Monitoring: Automatic measurement and reporting of request latency.
- Data Contract Enforcement: Input schema validation powered by Pydantic.
- Modern Framework Implementation: Adherence to contemporary FastAPI standards, including lifespan management.

Exposed Service Interfaces
User Identity Management
POST /users/register- Provision a novel user account.POST /users/login- Authenticate and receive an access credential (token).GET /users/me- Fetch details for the currently authenticated principal.
Resource Access Endpoints
GET /posts- Retrieve a segmented listing of all managed resources (paginated)- Query parameters:
skip: Offset for record retrieval (default: 0).limit: Maximum items per segment (default: 10, maximum allowed: 100).
- Return payload structure:
items: The current page of resource objects.total: The aggregate count of all available resources.skip: The offset applied to this segment.limit: The segment size.
GET /posts/{id}- Obtain a singular resource record by its identifier.POST /posts- Initiate the creation of a new resource (Requires active authentication).PUT /posts/{id}- Apply wholesale modifications to an existing resource (Requires authentication and ownership validation).DELETE /posts/{id}- Erase a specified resource instance (Requires authentication and ownership validation).
Execution Instructions
bash python main.py
The service endpoint will resolve at http://127.0.0.1:8000 by default.
Security Protocol (JWT)
Authentication relies on JSON Web Tokens: 1. First, complete the user registration procedure. 2. Subsequently, authenticate via the login endpoint to obtain the bearer token. 3. Include this token in all protected operations using the standard HTTP header format:
Authorization: Bearer
Telemetry Specifications
Logs are captured in the dedicated directory with the following parameters: - Temporal segmentation via daily rollover. - Maximum file size threshold set to 1 Megabyte. - Retention policy maintains 5 historical backup files. - Output directed to both persistent file storage and standard console. - Ingress request timing is automatically logged. - Comprehensive tracking of all Create, Retrieve, Update, and Delete actions. - Detailed logging of all security credential validation attempts.
