sidemount

🏕 sidemount 🤿 🏝⏛ is a streamlined http/web toolkit designed for building async network apps in Rust 🦀

#[get("/{username}")]
fn posts(req: Request) -> Response {
    Response::default()
}

#[get("/")]
fn index(req: Request) -> Response {
    Response::default()
}

#[get("/settings")]
fn settings(req: Request) -> Response {
    Response::default()
}

fn explore(req: Request) -> Response {
    Response::default()
}

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
    let mut app = sidemount::new();
    app.route("/", routes![index, settings, posts]);
    app.at("/explore").get(explore);
    app.listen("127.0.0.1:7000").await
}

Routing

To get started with routing in sidemount you will make use of the sidemount::router. This primarily allows you to setup a radix tree backed routing implementation. Each node that has an associated handler will let you attach different Methods to it. So long as the actual handler impl Handler it will work. You can also chain handlers with the tuple syntax such as (handler, handler2). This allows you to create middleware without having to worry about additional overhead.

at("/path/to").(get | post | ...)

fn tester() {}
fn tester2() {}

let mut router = sidemount::router();
router.at("/foo/bar").get(tester);
router.at("/foo/bar/baz").get((tester, tester2));

.mount(impl Handler)

If you wish to mount additional functions prior or after a particular path is executed use the .mount method on the router. This method will also accept any impl Handler and supports the tuple syntax here as well. You can call the .mount method as many times as you like (but it is generally preferred to use the tuple syntax for lower overhead when possible.

fn tester() {}
fn tester2() {}

let mut router = sidemount::router();
router.mount((tester, tester2));
router.mount(tester2);
router.at("/foo/bar").get(tester);
router.at("/foo/bar/baz").get((tester, tester2));

.route("/path", router)

A router can also be routed to additional sub-routers using the .route method. Simple create a new router using sidemount::router() and pass it along with the path on .route.

let mut sub_router = sidemount::router();
sub_router.at("/bleh").get(tester);
sub_router.at("/foo/bar").post(tester);
router.route("/hi", sub_router);

.find("/path/to/route", METHOD) -> RouteResult

The router has a method it for finding existing routes using the .find method, passing along the path and the Method to look for an associated RouteResult.

assert!(router.find("/hi/bleh", Method::GET).is_found());
assert!(router.find("/hi/foo/bar", Method::POST).is_found());
assert!(router.find("/foo/bar", Method::GET).is_found());
assert!(router.find("/foo/bar/baz", Method::GET).is_found());
