tyriavault-backend

Backend part of TyriaVault made with FastAPI (Python)

Features

• RESTful API with FastAPI
• Database with PostgreSQL and SQLAlchemy
• Cache System with Redis (optional) or InMemory fallback
• GW2 API Integration for game data
• Automated Crawlers for periodic data updates

Cache Configuration

The application supports two cache backends:

Redis (Recommended for production)

Add the REDIS_URL to your .env file:

REDIS_URL=redis://localhost:6379/0

If Redis connection fails or is not configured, the application automatically falls back to InMemory cache.

InMemory Cache (Default)

If REDIS_URL is not set, the application uses an InMemory cache backend automatically.

Testing

Unit Tests

Unit tests always use InMemory cache for speed and isolation:

pytest app/tests/unit

Integration Tests

Integration tests use Redis via Docker Compose:

# Windows
run_integration_tests.bat

# Linux/Mac
./run_integration_tests.sh
