Why Externalize Configuration?
Hardcoding database URLs, API keys, or debug flags into your code is dangerous and inflexible.
The 12-factor app approach stores configuration in the environment, so the same image runs in dev, staging, and production with different settings.
Reading Environment Variables
Python reads variables via os.environ or os.getenv with a default.
import os
DATABASE_URL = os.getenv("DATABASE_URL", "sqlite:///./dev.db")
DEBUG = os.getenv("DEBUG", "false").lower() == "true"Pydantic Settings
FastAPI projects commonly use pydantic-settings to load and validate config into a typed object.
from pydantic_settings import BaseSettings
class Settings(BaseSettings):
database_url: str
secret_key: str
debug: bool = FalseLoading from a .env File
Configure the settings class to read a local .env file during development.
class Settings(BaseSettings):
database_url: str
secret_key: str
class Config:
env_file = ".env"Caching the Settings Object
Use lru_cache so settings are parsed once and reused as a dependency.
from functools import lru_cache
@lru_cache
def get_settings() -> Settings:
return Settings()Injecting Settings into Routes
Treat settings as a FastAPI dependency for clean access and easy testing.
from fastapi import Depends
@app.get("/info")
def info(settings: Settings = Depends(get_settings)):
return {"debug": settings.debug}Never Commit Secrets
Add .env to .gitignore. Committed secrets are extremely hard to fully remove from git history and may leak credentials.
# .gitignore
.env
*.pem
secrets/Production Secret Stores
In production, prefer a managed secret store over plain files:
- AWS Secrets Manager or Parameter Store
- HashiCorp Vault
- Docker or Kubernetes secrets
These inject secrets at runtime without writing them to disk in plain text.
Different Configs per Environment
Use a single variable like ENV to branch behavior, keeping all values in the environment.
ENV = os.getenv("ENV", "development")
if ENV == "production":
LOG_LEVEL = "warning"
else:
LOG_LEVEL = "debug"Validating Required Variables
Pydantic settings raise a clear error at startup if a required variable is missing, failing fast instead of crashing later.
try:
settings = Settings()
except Exception as e:
print("Config error:", e)
raiseTyped Lists and Nested Config
Settings can parse complex values too, like comma-separated origins into a list, keeping parsing logic out of your routes.
class Settings(BaseSettings):
cors_origins: list[str] = []
# CORS_ORIGINS=https://a.com,https://b.comQuick Check
Test your configuration knowledge.
Recap
You learned to manage configuration safely:
- Read config from the environment, not source code
- Use pydantic-settings for typed, validated config
- Never commit
.env; use a secret store in production
Solid config management keeps deployments portable and secure.
