I deploy a FastAPI service with docker (see my docker-compose.yml and app).
My service directory gets filled with files index.html, index.html.1, index.html.2,… that all contain
They seem to be generated any time the docker healthcheck pings the service.
How can I get rid of these?
PS: I had to put a screenshot, because Lemmy stripped my HTML in the code quote.
This is a FastAPI feature - Autogenerated documentation using Swagger.
You can turn it off by setting
docs_url=None
In your linked main.py:
app = FastAPI( title="IslabTweet", description=__doc__, docs_url="/", # change this to None to disable the docs version=VERSION, )
Hope this helps!
That’s weird, I have never noticed any kind of .html files generation when accessing the docs and I have worked with F.Api for some time now, also can’t seem to find ang mention of this generation in the docs (that it actually writes files).
Also isn’t the default doc path
/docs
(/redoc
)Ok, that was stupid. Doing healthcheck with wget, does what wget does: it downloads the result. I had to add --spider to stop doing that
wget -nv --spider http://localhost:8000 || exit 1
usually I would use just curl for hc
The default is
/docs
In your
docker-compose.yml
file, your healthcheck forfastapi
uses wget, which saves the file to disk by default. Add--spider
to make it behave correctly. Yournginx
service has the correct command.
