+It receives a `dict`: the keys are status codes for each response (like `200`), and the values are other `dict`s with the information for each of them.
Each of those response `dict`s can have a key `model`, containing a Pydantic model, just like `response_model`.

-If you encounter a `RuntimeError: Task attached to a different loop` when integrating asynchronous function calls in your tests (e.g. when using <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41584243/runtimeerror-task-attached-to-a-different-loop" class="external-link" target="_blank">MongoDB's MotorClient</a>) Remember to instantiate objects that need an event loop only within async functions, e.g. an `'@app.on_event("startup")` callback.

By default, **FastAPI** will create a `server` in the OpenAPI schema with the URL for the `root_path`.
-But you can also provide other alternative `servers`, for example if you want *the same* docs UI to interact with a staging and production environments.
+But you can also provide other alternative `servers`, for example if you want *the same* docs UI to interact with both a staging and a production environment.
If you pass a custom list of `servers` and there's a `root_path` (because your API lives behind a proxy), **FastAPI** will insert a "server" with this `root_path` at the beginning of the list.
* `headers` - A `dict` of strings.
* `media_type` - A `str` giving the media type. E.g. `"text/html"`.
-FastAPI (actually Starlette) will automatically include a Content-Length header. It will also include a Content-Type header, based on the media_type and appending a charset for text types.

For that, you use `app.add_middleware()` (as in the example for CORS).

## Using the `jsonable_encoder` in a `Response`
-Because **FastAPI** doesn't do any change to a `Response` you return, you have to make sure its contents are ready for it.
+Because **FastAPI** doesn't make any changes to a `Response` you return, you have to make sure its contents are ready for it.
For example, you cannot put a Pydantic model in a `JSONResponse` without first converting it to a `dict` with all the data types (like `datetime`, `UUID`, etc) converted to JSON-compatible types.
#### A "professional" attack
-Of course, the attackers would not try all this by hand, they would write a program to do it, possibly with thousands or millions of tests per second. And would get just one extra correct letter at a time.
+Of course, the attackers would not try all this by hand, they would write a program to do it, possibly with thousands or millions of tests per second. And they would get just one extra correct letter at a time.
But doing that, in some minutes or hours the attackers would have guessed the correct username and password, with the "help" of our application, just using the time taken to answer.
The most common is the implicit flow.
-The most secure is the code flow, but is more complex to implement as it requires more steps. As it is more complex, many providers end up suggesting the implicit flow.

-Then for any subsequent calls of `get_settings()` in the dependencies for the next requests, instead of executing the internal code of `get_settings()` and creating a new `Settings` object, it will return the same object that was returned on the first call, again and again.

#### `lru_cache` Technical Details
So, you will want to have a **single process** to perform those **previous steps**, before starting the application.
-And you will have to make sure that it's a single process running those previous steps *even* if afterwards, you start **multiple processes** (multiple workers) for the application itself. If those steps were run by **multiple processes**, they would **duplicate** the work by running it on **parallel**, and if the steps were something delicate like a database migration, they could cause conflicts with each other.

Of course, there are some cases where there's no problem in running the previous steps multiple times, in that case, it's a lot easier to handle.

-In most cases, you probably won't want to use any base image, and instead **build a container image from scratch** one based on the official Python Docker image.

Taking care of the **order** of instructions in the `Dockerfile` and the **Docker cache** you can **minimize build times**, to maximize your productivity (and avoid boredom). 😎

I'll show you how to **build your own image from scratch** to run a single Uvicorn process. It is a simple process and is probably what you would want to do when using a distributed container management system like **Kubernetes**.
### Upgrades
* ➖ Remove `orjson` and `ujson` from default dependencies. PR [#11842](https://github.com/tiangolo/fastapi/pull/11842) by [@tiangolo](https://github.com/tiangolo).
- * These dependencies are still installed when you install with `pip install "fastapi[all]"`. But they not included in `pip install fastapi`.
