THIS PROJECT IS STILL IN DEVELOPMENT SO IT ISN'T DONE YET AND THINGS WILL CHANGE
This is a side project i've started to create a simple framework for myself.
TODO list:
to use this library add
toml
[dependencies]
arcanum = "0.1"
serde = { version = "1.0", features = ["derive"] }
to the cargo.toml file.
to instantiate and run the basic web server is:
rust
let mut server = WebServer::new("127.0.0.1", 7878);
server.run();
where the "127.0.0.1" is the address and 7878 is the port of the server.
to add a simple route use
rust
server.add_simple_route("/", handle_main_route);
Where handle_main_route is a function defined in the main.rs file
to define everything needed for handlemainroute like ```rust
struct HomepageContext { title: String, }
fn handlemainroute(req: Request, _res: &mut Response) -> ReturnData {
let context = HomepageContext {
title: "Hello, world!".tostring(),
};
let template = Template::render_template("views/index.html", context);
return ReturnData::Text(template);
}
the HomepageContext gets used by Template to see what to insert into the template, you could add 90 other variables to it if it would be deemed necessary.
the `views/index.html` content is like so
html
to add a route with params like an id or something similar we would use
rust
server.add_route_with_params("/id/:id", handle_id_route);
in this case the /id route would still match this and no param would get passed (still working on that)
in this case the handleidroute is handled like so: ```rust
struct IdPageContext { id: String, }
fn handleidroute(
req: Request,
_res: &mut Response,
params: HashMap
Once again we are using templates
html
serve_static_file serves a static file based on the path you provide this cannot be used to provide as a function in addsimpleroute, so you have to wrap it. see examples/basic/main.rs for more info.
