So you're basically asking for a web server that replies to POST requests? You can definitely do that with gotham
Might be a call for a new trait like AsyncHandler or something that has a blanket Handler implementation
iirc async-trait is just a convenience macro, so using it or not should be independent from gotham?
should work fine
Or is
async just Pin<Future<T>>?
no that's just a limitation of traits where you cannot return
impl Future
afaik
async fn foo() -> Result translates to fn foo() -> impl Future<Output = Result> with no boxing involved, and the concrete type being inferred by the compiler (and which is also some autogenerated private type)
So my scenario is this:
Client --{POST}--> GothamServer --{GET}--> some other server with the information I need to answer the client
yes that's certainly possible. gotham would be the part that communicates with the client, and then you'd use a client library like reqwest or surf to make your get request inside the handler
@mzr: Probably not out of the box. I'd suggest looking at
bind_server (source) to see (a) if it would be enough, (b) how it's dont internally.
Hi,
Their is something I don't understand in
the-benchmarker/web-frameworks#3690
Their is something I don't understand in
Cargo.lock, should not in fix / expose feature from hyper ? I have no rust skill but hyper is in 0.14 so we need to fix version in Cargo.tomlthe-benchmarker/web-frameworks#3690
@waghanza: gotham re-exports the hyper crate, so I strongly advise you use
gotham::hyper and don't depend on your own version of hyper
@jugglerchris: I don't think the diesel middleware currently supports this, so for now your best bet is probably to create a temporary file and use that as the database. Feel free to open an issue/PR to improve this
Next question... what do people use for the session middleware backend? I guess it's probably not much effort wrapping a
gotham_middleware_diesel table, but I guess I'd expect someone to have done so already. :-) (In the absence of a pre-existing one the MemoryBackendwill realistically be fine for my one-off application for a child's distributed birthday party)
it looks like travis currently refuses to run on our repository - does anyone know why that is?
@seanpianka: I don't think you need to include
hyper in your Cargo.toml file if you use gotham
@mjhouse: that depends... for a 404 returned by the router because there was no matching path, there's no convenient way to catch that error unfortunately. For other errors like 500, assuming they're not caused by a panic, you could use a middleware that checks the returned response from the handler and creates a new response if it was a server error
Is there a way I can wildcard capture all routes that don't have a handler?
iirc you can add a wildcard handler that calls a second router (since routers are also just handlers) and then add your middleware to the first router
@alsuren Hey, I remember this problem in gotham you were talking about a few months ago. https://users.rust-lang.org/t/storing-async-functions-which-have-references-possibly-hrtb-related/56262. Thought you would want to know.
I think this was even before that
I wasn't following
0.5.0 release since I gave up on gotham
