rp-hal VS sqlx

probably, I didn't really check it, but I found [1]. Rust has a lot of support for embedded systems, even from the companies that provide the chips, like STM and Espressif.

About the same time, I was learning Rust and discovered how it could be used on embedded targets from Low Level Learning on YouTube, the video introduced me to the amazing rp-hal crate that provides abstractions to talk to the Raspberry Pi Pico microcontroller. Getting used to the no_std mode took some time, the most challenging was not being able to collect an iterator to a container.

Well, just as I posted this, I came across the issue on Github: https://github.com/rp-rs/rp-hal/issues/525

Have a read of https://github.com/rp-rs/rp-hal/issues/257 for more info.

I've made an example for a RPI Pico (PR for the RP2040 HAL project here) .

Here's an example: https://github.com/rp-rs/rp-hal/blob/main/boards/rp-pico/examples/pico_usb_twitchy_mouse.rs

What are you on about, can you clarify? Rust can compile in no-std/embedded style just as fine (or better) than C can for basically any ARM or RISCV based processor, and quick googling shows this hal for nearly all pi needs and even MEGA65 is "as supported" (read: not at all officially by anything, fan-only) as any current C compiler. Setting up rust for a new target, so long as the code-gen is supported somehow by LLVM, LLVM plugin, LLVM IR transpiler (and maybe libgcc-jit sort of soon) is just as painful or unpainful as setting up a whole team to work via C/C++ with comparable testing harnesses. This doesn't mean easy and is an area Rust is still improving rapidly by the various enterprise agencies (Ferrous systems, Oxide, more I can't remember...) who specifically want to bring rust to such low end hardware because frankly both C and C++ suck with vendor proprietary tool chains and quirks.

He says he can't find crate for 'bare_metal'. He was setting up and testing the HAL for the pico (https://github.com/rp-rs/rp-hal). While compiling it pulls down critical-section-0.2.7/src/lib.rs and bars on line 7

For PostgreSQL, the most relevent part of the code is here. With this in mind I changed some things around to rely on schemas instead of databases and even simplified some parts of the implementation as this was always meant to be for internal use only..

What exactly are you missing? I haven't really written "boring corporate backend stuff" in a few years but something like sqlx provides everything I've ever needed there.

SQLX has entered the chat [1].

Database : SqLite (using sqlx).

The current (well, removed) MSSQL sqlx driver also doesn't support encrypted connections (https://github.com/launchbadge/sqlx/issues/1552), so it might work locally on an unnamed instance but not over the network until they add in the newer driver (which will be closed source but for an OSS project you should be able to request a free license I think)

I'm considering making my own wrapper over lower-level database drivers. There are a lot of features in sqlx that I don't need, and the latest version seems to have removed useful data structures that SQLPage is using. It also removed support for SQL Server.

add Ed25519 to AuthPlugin enum on https://github.com/launchbadge/sqlx/blob/061fdcabd72896d9bc3abb4ea4af6712a04bc0a8/sqlx-core/src/mysql/connection/auth.rs and implement them using these crates:
