V3.2.0

[miha42-github]

Introducing V3.2.0

The V3.2.0 release brings comprehensive security hardening and modernizes the web framework:

Security Enhancements

1. Security Middleware: Blocks 70+ known attack patterns including WordPress probes, PHP exploits, SQL injection, and XSS attempts
2. Rate Limiting: IP-based rate limiting (100-1000 req/min by endpoint type) using SlowAPI
3. Structured Logging: Severity-based logging with automatic request tracking and performance metrics
4. Input Validation: Pydantic v2.10.0 provides strict request/response validation

Framework & Architecture

1. FastAPI Migration: Complete replacement of Starlette with modern FastAPI framework
2. Automatic API Docs: Interactive Swagger UI at /docs and ReDoc at /redoc
3. Enhanced Type Safety: All endpoints use Pydantic models with proper type hints
4. Python 3.13 Support: Tested with Python 3.13 via Homebrew, uses .venv convention

New Dependencies

• fastapi>=0.115.0: Modern ASGI framework with automatic OpenAPI docs
• pydantic>=2.10.0: Data validation and serialization
