rust-rocksdb VS Tide

Final touches for lila-openingexplorer, a new chess opening database for lichess.org. Uses axum and rocksdb.

The most control you can probably get is from embeddable kv store, like https://github.com/spacejam/sled or https://github.com/rust-rocksdb/rust-rocksdb . Then you can encode entity version as a key.

I just released portal a full-text search web service that is a competitor for ElasticSearch and MeiliSearch written in Rust. It is simple, blazing fast, and under 500 LOC! Portal supports 87 natural languages, JWTs, SSL, and JSON clients. It is built on Sonic, Broker, Tide, and RocksDB.

Rust has several, production ready, REST API frame works.

Rust allows me to mainly only run the application to confirm things work from a business perspective.

For people starting out building stuff in rust - understand that there is a distinction of async code and libraries and can lead to confusing compiler errors if you don't realize there is a distinction. It's simple in hindsight but did cause me to waste hours barking up the wrong trees at first. Other wise just learn about `match` and Result/Option types asap, they're fundamental.

https://github.com/http-rs/tide tide is great to create an http server / routes

https://github.com/djc/askama I use this to template out HTML and it checks all my boxes, dynamic data, passing in functions, control flow.

https://github.com/launchbadge/sqlx sql interface for a variety of backend, async safe.

https://github.com/seanmonstar/reqwest http client to make requests

Rust is amazing, don't let the initial few speed bumps discourage you - building real things with rust is no more challenging today than any other modern language stack.

Hi, guys, how you doing? I'm trying out this web framework Tide just to make a toy project and learn more about Rust. The create_payment_handler function is called by the framework whenever there is a POST request to /payment/ containing a JSON body with the payment information.

I'm developing the backend of https://www.cozydate.com/ in Rust. Async Rust is not productive yet, so I tried rouille http server which lets me write non-async request handlers. Unfortunately, it uses an unbounded thread pool and falls down under load https://github.com/tiny-http/tiny-http/issues/221 . Then I tried Tide and a threadpool to call my non-async API handlers. This worked, but was really ugly, and I had issues with uploads after deploying to Heroku https://github.com/http-rs/tide/issues/878 .

You could also habe a look at tide apparently it is stable and production ready.
