FastAPI – Easily create robust, standardized API endpoints in Rails and Postgres

I like the idea, but I would be really reluctant to use a gem that has no tests, especially when the core methods are clearly not trivial, a bunch of them are ~100 lines long. Not that the number of lines tells how complicated a method is, but I think it is a good indicator.

I was going to say the same thing. I wouldn't even think about touching this gem. Multiple methods close to 200 lines long, all in a single file with no test suite. I shudder to think what the cyclomatic complexity of the 'api_comparison' method is. Have fun contributing to this project.

Perfectly reasonable. Tests are on the (close) horizon. We'll be rolling out more iterations in the coming weeks on the path to 1.0 (support for other data layers is also on the to-do list). Feedback is much appreciated.
