cargo-shuttle brings shuttle, the open source serverless platform for Rust web applications, into your terminal. With a dedicated focus on productivity, reliability, and performance, cargo-shuttle makes deploying your code to the cloud as easy as deriving a trait.

Installation

cargo-shuttle is available for macOS, Linux, and Windows. To install the commandline tool, run:

bash cargo install cargo-shuttle

Subcommands

cargo-shuttle's subcommands help you build and deploy web apps from start to finish.

Run cargo shuttle help to see the basic usage:

```text Usage: cargo-shuttle [OPTIONS]

Commands: deploy deploy a shuttle service deployment manage deployments of a shuttle service init create a new shuttle service generate generate shell completions status view the status of a shuttle service logs view the logs of a deployment in this shuttle service clean remove artifacts that were generated by cargo stop stop this shuttle service secrets manage secrets for this shuttle service login login to the shuttle platform logout log out of the shuttle platform run run a shuttle service locally feedback Open an issue on github and provide feedback project manage a project on shuttle help Print this message or the help of the given subcommand(s)

Options: --api-url run this command against the api at the supplied url (allows targeting a custom deployed instance for this command only) [env: SHUTTLE_API=] --working-directory Specify the working directory [default: .] --name Specify the name of the project (overrides crate name) -h, --help Print help -V, --version Print version ```

Subcommand: init

To initialize a shuttle project with boilerplates, run cargo shuttle init [OPTIONS] [PATH].

Currently, cargo shuttle init supports the following frameworks:

• --actix-web: for actix web framework
• --axum: for axum framework
• --poem: for poem framework
• --poise: for poise discord bot framework
• --rocket: for rocket framework
• --salvo: for salvo framework
• --serenity: for serenity discord bot framework
• --thruster: for thruster framework
• --tide: for tide framework
• --tower: for tower library
• --warp: for warp framework

For example, running the following command will initialize a project for rocket:

sh cargo shuttle init --rocket my-rocket-app

This should generate the following dependency in Cargo.toml:

toml rocket = "0.5.0-rc.2" shuttle-rocket = { version = "0.16.0" } shuttle-runtime = { version = "0.16.0" } tokio = { version = "1.26.0" }

The following boilerplate code should be generated into src/lib.rs:

```rust

[macro_use]

extern crate rocket;

[get("/")]

fn index() -> &'static str { "Hello, world!" }

[shuttle_runtime::main]

async fn rocket() -> shuttle_rocket::ShuttleRocket { let rocket = rocket::build().mount("/", routes![index]);

Ok(rocket.into())

} ```

Subcommand: run

To run the shuttle project locally, use the following command:

```sh

Inside your shuttle project

cargo shuttle run ```

This will compile your shuttle project and start it on the default port 8000. Test it by:

sh $ curl http://localhost:8000 Hello, world!

Subcommand: login

Use cargo shuttle login inside your shuttle project to generate an API key for the shuttle platform:

```sh

Inside a shuttle project

cargo shuttle login ```

This should automatically open a browser window with an auto-generated API key for your project. Simply copy-paste the API key back in your terminal or run the following command to complete login:

sh cargo shuttle login --api-key <your-api-key-from-browser>

Subcommand: deploy

To deploy your shuttle project to the cloud, run:

sh cargo shuttle project start cargo shuttle deploy

Your service will immediately be available at {crate_name}.shuttleapp.rs. For instance:

sh $ curl https://my-rocket-app.shuttleapp.rs Hello, world!

Subcommand: status

Check the status of your deployed shuttle project with:

sh cargo shuttle status

Subcommand: logs

Check the logs of your deployed shuttle project with:

sh cargo shuttle logs

Subcommand: stop

Once you are done with a deployment, you can stop it by running:

sh cargo shuttle stop

Development

Thanks for using cargo-shuttle! We’re very happy to have you with us!

During our alpha period, API keys are completely free and you can deploy as many services as you want.

Just keep in mind that there may be some kinks that require us to take all deployments down once in a while. In certain circumstances we may also have to delete all the data associated with those deployments.
