|

In some cases you don't really need the return value of a dependency inside your *path operation function*.
|
||||
|
||||
Or the dependency doesn't return a value.
|
||||
|
||||
But you still need it to be executed/solved.
|
||||
|
||||
For those cases, instead of declaring a *path operation function* parameter with `Depends`, you can add a `list` of `dependencies` to the *path operation decorator*.
|
||||
|
||||
## Add `dependencies` to the *path operation decorator*
|
||||
|
||||
The *path operation decorator* receives an optional argument `dependencies`.
|
||||
|
||||
It should be a `list` of `Depends()`:
|
||||
|
||||
```Python hl_lines="17"
|
||||
{!./src/dependencies/tutorial006.py!}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
These dependencies will be executed/solved the same way normal dependencies. But their value (if they return any) won't be passed to your *path operation function*.
|
||||
|
||||
!!! tip
|
||||
Some editors check for unused function parameters, and show them as errors.
|
||||
|
||||
Using these `dependencies` in the *path operation decorator* you can make sure they are executed while avoiding editor/tooling errors.
|
||||
|
||||
It might also help avoiding confusion for new developers that see an un-used parameter in your code and could think it's unnecessary.
|
||||
|
||||
## Dependencies errors and return values
|
||||
|
||||
You can use the same dependency *functions* you use normally.
|
||||
|
||||
### Dependency requirements
|
||||
|
||||
They can declare request requirements (like headers) or other sub-dependencies:
|
||||
|
||||
```Python hl_lines="6 11"
|
||||
{!./src/dependencies/tutorial006.py!}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Raise exceptions
|
||||
|
||||
These dependencies can `raise` exceptions, the same as normal dependencies:
|
||||
|
||||
```Python hl_lines="8 13"
|
||||
{!./src/dependencies/tutorial006.py!}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Return values
|
||||
|
||||
And they can return values or not, the values won't be used.
|
||||
|
||||
So, you can re-use a normal dependency (that returns a value) you already use somewhere else, and even though the value won't be used, the dependency will be executed:
|
||||
|
||||
```Python hl_lines="9 14"

||||
