See sign-up and login flows, product updates, cart and checkout, Stripe payments, order tracking, reviews, and email notifications across admin, delivery, and customer roles.
Trigger paid orders to send email alerts to the delivery team, assign a driver, and update status from shipped to delivered, while reviewing orders, items, and customer feedback.
Navigate the admin panel and user flow to manage products, categories, stock, and orders with analytics, and email updates to customers when status changes.

Define a prodot schema with read and detail responses for an e-commerce app, including id, name, description, price, stock, category id, image url, and reviews, with alias generation and updates.
Demonstrate why a base model fits schemas better than an sql model. Implement order and order item schemas with a checkout request and order read, using validators and computed subtotal.
Define a cat schema where a cat has cat items containing products, and implement CatRead, CatItemRead, and an add-to-cat schema with product ID and quantity.
Create a notification schema by adding notification.py, define NotificationRead extending the base model, include id, email, and a notification type of NotificationType, and import it into the app.
Define a payments schema in payments.py with a checkout session request that accepts an order_id on checkout. Return a CheckoutSessionResponse with an auto-redirected checkout URL and a tracking session ID.
This lecture guides migrating models to database tables using Alembic, including initializing migrations, configuring env.py, importing models, and running the initial migration to create tables in Postgres or MySQL.
Register all models in the model folder init.py, then run alembic migrations, fix import and configuration errors, define dbURL, and upgrade head to persist tables.
Develop a custom FastAPI exception system with an API exception class, a default 400 status, and a general 500 handler, including a Stripe error handler and JSON responses.
Implement a JWT security service to generate and decode tokens using HS256, with a 30-day expiry and secret key from .env, and handle expiration and invalid tokens with API exceptions.
Fix the JWT algorithm handling by decoding with a list of algorithms and encoding with a single algorithm, clarifying singular versus plural usage to ensure the method works.
Enable two-factor authentication and generate a Gmail app password, then configure your .env with smtp.gmail.com, port 587, and mail user and password to enable email sending.
Build an email service that loads and renders welcome templates with jinja2, then sends emails via asio-smtp using mailhost, port, user, and password.
Create an auth module with a /auth router and a POST /register endpoint that uses a user service and a DB session to return a 201 created user.
Test the registration API with Postman by creating an auth collection and a register request, sending a JSON body with email, name, password, and optional role.
Implement user login by fetching the user, verifying the password with a hash, and generating a JWT access token containing the user id and role for subsequent requests.
Perform login api testing for a FastAPI and Next.js ecommerce app, validate /login with email and password, handle 400 errors and bearer tokens, plan forgot and reset password.
Implement a password reset flow by validating the reset code, checking expiry within five hours, hashing the new password, cleaning up the code, and exposing a post api endpoint.
test the password reset api with postman by sending the reset code and new password to the reset route, validate invalid codes, and confirm a successful reset and login.
Extract the current logged-in user from the token by decoding the access token, obtaining the user id from sub, querying the database, and returning errors if not found or inactive.
Validate admin and delivery users by extracting the current user from the token with getCurrentUser and enforcing roles via getCurrentAdmin and delivery, raising a forbidden API exception when unauthorized.
