FastAPI Beyond CRUD Part 10 - JWT Authentication (Project Endpoints with HTTP Bearer Auth)

1. 1Install the required packages using pip: 'pip install fastapi-security'
2. 2Create a JWT token using the 'jwt' package: 'jwt.encode(payload, secret_key, algorithm='HS256')'
3. 3Configure HTTP Bearer Auth in FastAPI using the 'HTTPBearer' class: 'from fastapi.security import HTTPBearer'
4. 4Protect API endpoints with the 'bearer_auth' dependency: 'from fastapi import Depends'
5. 5Test the secured endpoint using a tool like curl or Postman: 'curl -X GET -H 'Authorization: Bearer <token>' https://example.com/endpoint'
