Crate limiting_factor[−][src]
Expand description
A library with components to implement a REST API.
The goal of this crate is to provide:
- boilerplate to parse environment and run a Rocket server
- glue code for Rocket and Diesel to use a database in the web service
- standard API replies
That allows an API or a back-end web server to focus on requests and data model.
Examples
A simple server serving a 200 ALIVE response on /status :
use limiting_factor::kernel::DefaultApplication;
pub fn run () {
let routes = routes![
status,
];
DefaultApplication::start_application(routes);
}
#[get("/status")]
pub fn status() -> &'static str {
"ALIVE"
}
Replacing DefaultApplication
by MinimalApplication
allows to use a lighter version
of the library without Diesel dependencies or database use.
