Routing middleware for the Iron web framework.
Router is a fast, convenient, and flexible routing middleware for Iron. It allows complex glob patterns and named url parameters and also allows handlers to be any Middleware - including Chain, which provides enormous amounts of flexibility for handling and dispatching requests.
fn main() {
let mut router = Router::new();
router.route( // Setup our route.
Get,
"/:class/:id".to_string(),
vec!["class".to_string(), "id".to_string()],
echo_to_term);
let mut server: Server = Iron::new();
server.chain.link(router); // Add middleware to the server's stack
server.listen(::std::io::net::ip::Ipv4Addr(127, 0, 0, 1), 3000);
}
fn echo_to_term(_: &mut Request, res: &mut Response, alloy: &mut Alloy) {
let query = alloy.find::<Params>().unwrap();
println!("Class: {}\t id: {}",
query.get("class").unwrap(), query.get("id").unwrap());
}router is a part of Iron's core bundle.
- Route client requests based on their paths
- Parse parameters and provide them to other middleware/handlers
If you're using a Cargo.toml to manage dependencies, just add router to the toml:
[dependencies.router]
git = "https://github.com/iron/router.git"Otherwise, cargo build, and the rlib will be in your target directory.
Along with the online documentation,
you can build a local copy with make doc.
