Is it possible to use FastAPI with Django?

I'm a Django developer and recently stumbled onto the FastAPI framework.

Then I decided to give it a shot. But usually when you talk about building RESTful APIs with Django you usually use the Django Rest Framework (DRF).

Is anybody aware if it is possible to substitute DRF by FastAPI using Django perks, like its ORM, and still have access to all of FastAPI's async features?

Up until now I only found one article on this. But in the process of integration the author lost most of the features of FastAPI. You can find it here.

In the FastAPI docs, they do mention that it is possible to redirect certain request to a WSGI application here.

Short Answer

Yes it's possible with WSGIMiddleware.

For example, you can use all Django features (yes admin too) with mounting, with this example code.

import os
from importlib.util import find_spec

from configurations.wsgi import get_wsgi_application
from fastapi import FastAPI
from fastapi.middleware.wsgi import WSGIMiddleware
from fastapi.staticfiles import StaticFiles

from api import router

os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "myapp.settings")
os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_CONFIGURATIN", "Localdev")

application = get_wsgi_application()

app = FastAPI()
app.mount("/admin", WSGIMiddleware(application))
app.mount("/static"
    StaticFiles(
         directory=os.path.normpath(
              os.path.join(find_spec("django.contrib.admin").origin, "..", "static")
         )
   ),
   name="static",
)

Also this one is from WSGIMiddleware documentation, it's a more straight-forward example (This one is for Flask but it demonstrates the same idea.).

from fastapi import FastAPI
from fastapi.middleware.wsgi import WSGIMiddleware
from flask import Flask, escape, request

flask_app = Flask(__name__)


@flask_app.route("/")
def flask_main():
    name = request.args.get("name", "World")
    return f"Hello, {escape(name)} from Flask!"


app = FastAPI()


@app.get("/v2")
def read_main():
    return {"message": "Hello World"}


app.mount("/v1", WSGIMiddleware(flask_app))

Thank you for the awesome answers. Here is a little tweaked answer where I have fixed some imports as well as I have used a model from a Django app.

from fastapi import FastAPI
from fastapi.middleware.wsgi import WSGIMiddleware
from django.core.wsgi import get_wsgi_application
import os
from importlib.util import find_spec
from fastapi.staticfiles import StaticFiles
from django.conf import settings


# Export Django settings env variable
os.environ.setdefault('DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE', 'project.settings')

# Get Django WSGI app
django_app = get_wsgi_application()

# Import a model
# And always import your models after you export settings
# and you get Django WSGI app
from accounts.models import Account

# Create FasatAPI instance
app = FastAPI()

# Serve Django static files
app.mount('/static',
    StaticFiles(
         directory=os.path.normpath(
              os.path.join(find_spec('django.contrib.admin').origin, '..', 'static')
         )
   ),
   name='static',
)

# Define a FastAPI route
@app.get('/fastapi-test')
def read_main():
    return {
        'total_accounts': Account.objects.count(),
        'is_debug': settings.DEBUG 
    }

# Mount Django app
app.mount('/django-test', WSGIMiddleware(django_app))

Hint: I created a file named app.py in my Django project's root directory and it worked. Here is my directory structure:

.
├── accounts
│   ├── __init__.py
│   ├── admin.py
│   ├── apps.py
│   ├── migrations
│   │   ├── 0001_initial.py
│   │   ├── __init__.py
│   ├── models.py
│   ├── tests.py
│   └── views.py
├── app.py
├── db.sqlite3
├── project
│   ├── __init__.py
│   ├── asgi.py
│   ├── settings.py
│   ├── urls.py
│   └── wsgi.py
└── manage.py

And run your FastAPI app:

(myvenv) ➜  project uvicorn --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000 app:app --reload
INFO:     Uvicorn running on http://0.0.0.0:8000 (Press CTRL+C to quit)
INFO:     Started reloader process [48366] using statreload
INFO:     Started server process [48368]
INFO:     Waiting for application startup.
INFO:     Application startup complete.

Hopefully, this will work for you. Now accessing /django-test will serve your Django project and /fastapi-test will serve the FastAPI part.

This configuration serves Django static files too and we can use our Django models in our FastAPI code as well. I'll test it further and I'll update this answer if I find any possibilities for improvement.
