Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Q3 2023 update - Notifications
To compose and send emails, I rely on an incredible open-source Rust library called Lettre.
-
Sending emails with lettre
This seems to be something the project is looking at. There are two relevant issues: Add raw header support to MessageBuilder https://github.com/lettre/lettre/issues/661
-
State of Rust for web backends
lettre is the mails crate I'm hoping to use soon.
-
Pure GraphQL OAuth
The mailer will be a SMTP provider and we will use lettre for this, however unlike the other connections this one will be private, and we will only expose the email functions we want to run:
-
Initial release of diesel-async
Example what I mean https://crates.io/crates/lettre/versions
-
Erooster a WIP mail suite fully written in rust
Hopping on this train: How does it compare to Lettre? (Rust)
-
What a better Rust would look like
I can tell you SMTP in Rust doesn't get enough love, also it's very difficult to get it right https://github.com/lettre/lettre/issues, so It'd be ridiculous to try to put it into the std.

Send emails right from the terminal using Rust! 🦀⚡
While browsing Github, I found this cool Rust library called lettre. Being a fan of CLI applications and productivity, I quickly made this rust script that lets you send emails, right from your terminal!

SQLx 0.7 released! Offline mode usability improvements, performance fixes and major upgrades across the board!
It's worth keeping an eye on Diesel's metrics suite (https://github.com/diesel-rs/metrics) as well; I found and fixed some suboptimal buffering that was affecting performance.
-
What's everyone working on this week (26/2023)?
See here for some numbers. The relevant code lives inside the diesel github repository. Please also keep in mind that these are just numbers and you should run those these on your own and also run tests with your actual work load.
-
Sqlx, diesel, orm or other sqlx query ?
Performance is worse than in comparable frameworks
-
Handle sessions and database requests
For the database part you might want to checkout a crate that's not based on sqlx as sqlx is known for providing non-optimal performance for the sqlite backend. rusqlite or diesel perform much better for this use case.
-
What ORM do you use?
No it will likely not be less performant. See these numbers for some benchmark results for numbers. (As always with benchmarks: Please don't trust my numbers. To be sure you need to do your own benchmarks with your own use-case)
-
Trying to learn by tutorials, for cannot find a single Actix/Diesel tutorial that actually compiles
See here for some benchmark results. The benchmarks itself are in the diesel repository. Otherwise I believe there are numbers in the techempower benchmarks as well, although that includes other factors .
-
Thoughts about switching from sqlx to tokio_postgres?
I'm developing a Rust web server backend in Axum that uses Postgres and performance will be pretty important since I plan to run it on one server for as long as possible. It seems like the postgres crate is about 2x faster than sqlx, and the postgres repository seems pretty active still.
-
Ormlite: An ORM in Rust for developers that love SQL
Congratulations to the release. I know all of this is hard work. I would like to invite you to submit a ormlite implementation to the diesel benchmark collection. As soon as that's merged you will get regular reports here. The relevant code is here in the diesel repository.
-
Rails developers write some Rust: a review of Axum 0.6
In that case you may be interested in the metrics for different database libraries. diesel is doing rather well at the moment. sqlx is in the middle of a large rewrite that should improve performance, so we'll see how it compares after that
-
Using Rust as my Backend
See here for some benchmark results for the diesel repository. Please keep in mind that as always with benchmarks, these numbers are not necessarily true for your usecase. Be sure to checkout at least the benchmark code and draw your own conclusions from there.
