accessing the request object

[euri10]

In starlette you can access request object in function decorated with the route decorator.

it seems very handy to be able to access middlewares etc,
is there a way in fastapi to do that using the provided get/post/options.... decorators?
same question for the ApiRouter.

@app.route("/notes", methods=["GET"])
async def list_notes(request):
    query = notes.select()
    results = await request.database.fetchall(query)

Yes! It's not properly documented yet.

It's pretty much what (I guess) you would expect. Declare it with a Starlette Request type and FastAPI will provide it:

from fastapi import FastAPI
from starlette.requests import Request

app = FastAPI()


@app.get("/")
def read_root(request: Request):
    query = notes.select()  # Not sure where `notes` comes from
    results = await request.database.fetchall(query)
    return {"Hello": results}
