This crate is an extension to the popular gotham web framework for Rust. It aims to reduce boilerplate necessary to read request bodies today as a stop-gap until gotham finally implements a [body extractor].

:sparkles: Features

• Parse application/x-www-form-urlencoded request bodies
• Parse multipart/form-data request bodies
• Verify the parsed request body

:warning: Warning

This crate is synchronous. It loads the entire request body into memory. YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ENFORCING UPLOAD LIMITS. For this reason, file uploads are not supported, and this won't change before this crate switches to an async multipart parser.

:spiral_notepad: Example

```rust use gotham_formdata::FormData;

[derive(FormData)]

struct LoginData { #[validate(regex = "[a-zA-Z0-9]", error = "The username contains illegal characters.")] username: String, #[validate(minlength = 6)] password: String }

async fn loginhandler(state: &mut State) -> Result, HandlerError> { let logindata: LoginData = FormData::parseformdata(state).await?; Ok(if logindata.password == "secret" { createresponse(state, StatusCode::OK, TEXTPLAIN, logindata.username) } else { createemptyresponse(state, StatusCode::FORBIDDEN) }) } ```

:label: Versioning

Like all rust crates, this crate will follow semantic versioning guidelines. However, changing the MSRV (minimum supported rust version) is not considered a breaking change.
