PESUAuth v2.0
Welcome to PESUAuth v2.0.0 🚀
We're excited to announce the release of PESUAuth v2.0.0, a major refactor that brings the codebase up to date with modern Python tooling and frameworks! 🎉
This version focuses on performance, developer experience, and future-proofing the project by replacing legacy dependencies with modern, async-ready alternatives.
🆕 Modern Ecosystem.
Flask is so 2020. Welcome to FastAPI.
| 🔁 Migration | From → To |
|---|---|
| Web Framework | Flask + Flasgger → FastAPI |
| HTTP Client | requests → httpx |
| HTML Parser | BeautifulSoup (lxml) → selectolax |
| Validation | Manual validation → Pydantic |
| Dependency Management | requirements.txt → uv (w/ lockfile) |
⚙️ Key Improvements
- ✅ Asynchronous support for faster HTTP and IO operations
- ✅ Built-in OpenAPI docs at
/thanks to FastAPI - ✅ Faster HTML parsing via
selectolax - ✅ Robust request validation using Pydantic models
- ✅ Cleaner codebase with type hints and declarative logic
- ✅ Modern dependency management using
uv
🧭 Migration Notes
- The
/authenticateand/readmeendpoints remain unchanged in behavior but are now backed by FastAPI. - Legacy
requirements.txtis still available for Docker-based workflows, butuvis now the preferred method for local development. - All functionality is preserved, with improved error handling and validation.
🧪 Testing and Compatibility
- All existing tests were updated to reflect the FastAPI and Pydantic interfaces.
- Functional and integration test coverage expanded across endpoints and input validation paths.
