Mobile Optimized Interface Module
Overview
The Mobile Optimized Interface module provides an adaptive design solution for ensuring seamless user experience across mobile devices (phones and tablets). This module includes:
- Responsive API endpoints
- Mobile-first UI components
- Device detection and adaptation
This documentation includes code samples for:
- A FastAPI endpoint for handling mobile requests
- A React UI snippet for responsive design
- Pydantic data schema for request validation
FastAPI Endpoint Example
from fastapi import APIRouter, Request
from pydantic import BaseModel
from typing import Optional
# Define the request model using Pydantic
class GreetingRequest(BaseModel):
name: str
device_type: Optional[str] = None # phone/tablet
language_code: Optional[str] = None # e.g. "en", "es"
router = APIRouter()
@router.get("/mobile/greet")
async def mobile_greeting(request: Request,
name: str,
device_type: str = "phone",
language_code: str = "en"):
"""
Mobile-optimized endpoint for greeting message.
Args:
request: The request object
name: User's name (required)
device_type: Device type (optional, defaults to phone)
language_code: Language code (optional, defaults to en)
Returns:
A customized greeting based on device and language
"""
return {
"message": f"Hello, {name}!",
"device_type": request.client.device.type,
"language": language_code
}
React UI Snippet Example
import React from 'react';
import { useMediaQuery } from 'react-responsive';
const MobileGreeting = ({ name }) => {
const isPhone = useMediaQuery({ query: '(max-width: 768px)' });
return (
<div className={`p-4 ${isPhone ? 'text-center' : ''}`}>
{isPhone ? (
<>
<h1>Hello, Mobile User!</h1>
<p>Device Type: Phone</p>
</>
) : (
<>
<h1>Welcome to Desktop View</h1>
<p>Device Type: Tablet or Desktop</p>
</>
)}
</div>
);
};
export default MobileGreeting;
Pydantic Data Schema Example
from pydantic import BaseModel
from typing import Optional
class GreetingSchema(BaseModel):
name: str
device_type: Optional[str] = None # phone/tablet
language_code: Optional[str] = None
# Example validation usage:
# data = {"name": "John", "device_type": "tablet"}
# try:
# validated_data = GreetingSchema(**data)
# except ValidationError as e:
# print(e.json())
Notes for Developers
