⚙️ To Develop Locally

1. Install the development dependencies: pip install -r dev-requirements.txt

2. Install the pre-commit git hooks: pre-commit install

3. Add more routes in the integration_tests/base_routes.py file(if you like).

4. Run maturin develop or maturin develop --cargo-extra-args="--features=io-uring" (if you want to run the experimental version).

5. Run python3 integration_tests/base_routes.py

🏃 To Run

python3 app.py -h

usage: app.py [-h] [--processes PROCESSES] [--workers WORKERS] [--dev DEV]
