后台任务¶
你可以定义在返回响应后运行的后台任务。
这对需要在请求之后执行的操作很有用，但客户端不必在接收响应之前等待操作完成。
包括这些例子：
- 执行操作后发送的电子邮件通知：
- 由于连接到电子邮件服务器并发送电子邮件往往很“慢”（几秒钟），您可以立即返回响应并在后台发送电子邮件通知。
- 处理数据：
- 例如，假设您收到的文件必须经过一个缓慢的过程，您可以返回一个"Accepted"(HTTP 202)响应并在后台处理它。
使用 BackgroundTasks¶
首先导入 BackgroundTasks 并在 路径操作函数 中使用类型声明 BackgroundTasks 定义一个参数：
from fastapi import BackgroundTasks, FastAPI
app = FastAPI()
def write_notification(email: str, message=""):
with open("log.txt", mode="w") as email_file:
content = f"notification for {email}: {message}"
email_file.write(content)
@app.post("/send-notification/{email}")
async def send_notification(email: str, background_tasks: BackgroundTasks):
background_tasks.add_task(write_notification, email, message="some notification")
return {"message": "Notification sent in the background"}
FastAPI 会创建一个 BackgroundTasks 类型的对象并作为该参数传入。
创建一个任务函数¶
创建要作为后台任务运行的函数。
它只是一个可以接收参数的标准函数。
它可以是 async def 或普通的 def 函数，FastAPI 知道如何正确处理。
在这种情况下，任务函数将写入一个文件（模拟发送电子邮件）。
由于写操作不使用 async 和 await，我们用普通的 def 定义函数：
from fastapi import BackgroundTasks, FastAPI
app = FastAPI()
def write_notification(email: str, message=""):
with open("log.txt", mode="w") as email_file:
content = f"notification for {email}: {message}"
email_file.write(content)
@app.post("/send-notification/{email}")
async def send_notification(email: str, background_tasks: BackgroundTasks):
background_tasks.add_task(write_notification, email, message="some notification")
return {"message": "Notification sent in the background"}
添加后台任务¶
在你的 路径操作函数 里，用 .add_task() 方法将任务函数传到 后台任务 对象中：
from fastapi import BackgroundTasks, FastAPI
app = FastAPI()
def write_notification(email: str, message=""):
with open("log.txt", mode="w") as email_file:
content = f"notification for {email}: {message}"
email_file.write(content)
@app.post("/send-notification/{email}")
async def send_notification(email: str, background_tasks: BackgroundTasks):
background_tasks.add_task(write_notification, email, message="some notification")
return {"message": "Notification sent in the background"}
.add_task() 接收以下参数：
- 在后台运行的任务函数(
write_notification)。 - 应按顺序传递给任务函数的任意参数序列(
email)。 - 应传递给任务函数的任意关键字参数(
message="some notification")。
依赖注入¶
使用 BackgroundTasks 也适用于依赖注入系统，你可以在多个级别声明 BackgroundTasks 类型的参数：在 路径操作函数 里，在依赖中(可依赖)，在子依赖中，等等。
FastAPI 知道在每种情况下该做什么以及如何复用同一对象，因此所有后台任务被合并在一起并且随后在后台运行：
from typing import Annotated
from fastapi import BackgroundTasks, Depends, FastAPI
app = FastAPI()
def write_log(message: str):
with open("log.txt", mode="a") as log:
log.write(message)
def get_query(background_tasks: BackgroundTasks, q: str | None = None):
if q:
message = f"found query: {q}\n"
background_tasks.add_task(write_log, message)
return q
@app.post("/send-notification/{email}")
async def send_notification(
email: str, background_tasks: BackgroundTasks, q: Annotated[str, Depends(get_query)]
):
message = f"message to {email}\n"
background_tasks.add_task(write_log, message)
return {"message": "Message sent"}

该示例中，信息会在响应发出 之后 被写到 log.txt 文件。
如果请求中有查询，它将在后台任务中写入日志。
然后另一个在 路径操作函数 生成的后台任务会使用路径参数 email 写入一条信息。
技术细节¶
BackgroundTasks 类直接来自 starlette.background。
它被直接导入/包含到FastAPI以便你可以从 fastapi 导入，并避免意外从 starlette.background 导入备用的 BackgroundTask (后面没有 s)。
通过仅使用 BackgroundTasks (而不是 BackgroundTask)，使得能将它作为 路径操作函数 的参数 ，并让FastAPI为您处理其余部分, 就像直接使用 Request 对象。
在FastAPI中仍然可以单独使用 BackgroundTask，但您必须在代码中创建对象，并返回包含它的Starlette Response。
更多细节查看 Starlette's official docs for Background Tasks.
告诫¶
如果您需要执行繁重的后台计算，并且不一定需要由同一进程运行（例如，您不需要共享内存、变量等），那么使用其他更大的工具（如 Celery）可能更好。
它们往往需要更复杂的配置，即消息/作业队列管理器，如RabbitMQ或Redis，但它们允许您在多个进程中运行后台任务，甚至是在多个服务器中。
但是，如果您需要从同一个FastAPI应用程序访问变量和对象，或者您需要执行小型后台任务（如发送电子邮件通知），您只需使用 BackgroundTasks 即可。
回顾¶
导入并使用 BackgroundTasks 通过 路径操作函数 中的参数和依赖项来添加后台任务。
