# Backend - Paper Dynasty Game Engine
## Overview
FastAPI-based real-time game backend handling WebSocket communication, game state management, and database persistence for both SBA and PD leagues.
**Tech Stack**: FastAPI (Python 3.13), Socket.io, PostgreSQL 14+, SQLAlchemy 2.0, Pydantic v2, pytest
## Project Structure
```

├── app/
│ ├── main.py # FastAPI + Socket.io init

```
## Development
### Quick Start
```bash
cd backend
uv sync # Install dependencies
docker compose up -d # Start Redis
uv run python -m app.main # Start server at localhost:8000
```
### Testing
```bash
uv run pytest tests/unit/ -v # All unit tests (739 passing)
uv run python -m terminal_client # Interactive REPL
```
### Code Quality
```bash
uv run mypy app/ # Type checking
uv run black app/ # Formatting
uv run flake8 app/ # Linting
```
## Key Patterns
### Hybrid State Management
- **In-memory**: Active game states for <500ms response
- **PostgreSQL**: Persistent storage for recovery
- **Pattern**: Write-through cache (update memory + async DB write)
### League-Agnostic Core
- Game engine works for any league
- Config-driven behavior (SbaConfig, PdConfig)
- Polymorphic player models (BasePlayer SbaPlayer, PdPlayer)
### DateTime
**Always use Pendulum** (never Python's datetime):
```python
import pendulum
now = pendulum.now('UTC')
```
## Environment
### Database
- **Server**: PostgreSQL at 10.10.0.42:5432
- **Database**: paperdynasty_dev
- **Connection**: `postgresql+asyncpg://...`
### Required .env Variables
```bash
DATABASE_URL=postgresql+asyncpg://...
SECRET_KEY=your-secret-key
DISCORD_CLIENT_ID=...
DISCORD_CLIENT_SECRET=...
```
### Python Environment
- **Version**: Python 3.13.3
- **Package Manager**: UV (fast, reliable)
- **Virtual Environment**: `backend/.venv/`
## Testing Policy
**REQUIRED**: 100% unit tests passing before any commit
```bash
uv run pytest tests/unit/ -q # Must show all passing
```
## Coding Standards
- **Formatting**: Black (88 chars)
- **Type Hints**: Required for public functions
- **Logging**: `logger = logging.getLogger(f'{__name__}.ClassName')`
- **Error Handling**: "Raise or Return" - no silent failures
## Performance Targets
| Metric | Target |
|--------|--------|
| Action response | < 500ms |
| WebSocket delivery | < 200ms |
| DB writes | < 100ms (async) |
| State recovery | < 2 seconds |
