FastAPI - Dependency Injection

You want to create a FastAPI endpoint that depends on a main dependency which itself depends on two sub-dependencies. How should you structure the dependencies to ensure both sub-dependencies are called and their results used in the main dependency?

ACall both sub-dependencies inside main dependency without Depends()

BPass sub-dependencies as global variables to main dependency

CUse a single sub-dependency that returns a tuple of both results

DDefine two sub-dependency functions, then in main dependency use Depends() for both as parameters

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Understand sub-dependency usage in main dependency
FastAPI allows multiple dependencies by declaring parameters with Depends(). To use two sub-dependencies, declare both as parameters with Depends().
Step 2: Evaluate options for correctness
Define two sub-dependency functions, then in main dependency use Depends() for both as parameters correctly describes this pattern. Call both sub-dependencies inside main dependency without Depends() misses Depends(), so sub-dependencies won't be injected. Use a single sub-dependency that returns a tuple of both results is possible but less clear and not standard. Pass sub-dependencies as global variables to main dependency is incorrect as global variables don't work for dependency injection.
Final Answer:
Define two sub-dependency functions, then in main dependency use Depends() for both as parameters -> Option D
Quick Check:
Multiple Depends parameters call multiple sub-dependencies [OK]

Quick Trick: Use multiple Depends() parameters in main dependency [OK]

Common Mistakes:

MISTAKES

Calling sub-dependencies directly without Depends
Trying to pass sub-dependencies as globals
Combining sub-dependencies into one without clear structure
