FastAPI Lifespan Events are now supported on Edgenivo

Ricardo Gonzalez, Tom Lienard

Edgenivo now supports lifespan events for FastAPI apps. This allows you to define logic that can execute on startup and graceful shutdown—such as managing database connections or flushing external logs.

from contextlib import asynccontextmanager
from fastapi import FastAPI


@asynccontextmanager
async def lifespan(app: FastAPI):
    # Startup logic
    print("Starting up...")
    await startup_tasks()
    yield
    # Shutdown logic
    await cleanup_tasks()


app = FastAPI(lifespan=lifespan)

Deploy FastAPI on Edgenivo or visit the FastAPI on Edgenivo documentation.
