extreme VS mini-redis

block_on in libraries can sometimes be achieved with a far lighter weight crate like my (kinda "educational" but still decent light-weight executor) extreme. But it's possible that rusoto uses one of tokio's hacky bits of functionality that violate the Future contract and make it incompatible with other executors. If that's the case, you're stuck using a tokio executor due to their refusal to play by the rules of the community around this interface.

Hi, I'm trying to implement RESP with Rust (more like a mini-redis clone from tokio tutorial).

One project I found extremely easy to read and understand was mini-redis. Anything similar to that?

For learning async Rust, mini-redis repo is hard to surpass: https://github.com/tokio-rs/mini-redis

The code is simple enough for beginners to follow, but also complex enough to demonstrate Rust async in the wild. And best of all, the code is heavily commented!

You can follow the official Tokio tutorial to implement mini-redis incrementally: https://tokio.rs/tokio/tutorial/setup

for backend async service: https://github.com/tokio-rs/mini-redis

The official Tokio mini-Redis example has a well-documented example of shutting down worker tasks: https://github.com/tokio-rs/mini-redis/blob/master/src/shutdown.rs

Have a look at https://github.com/tokio-rs/mini-redis, written as an example of a modern rust application.

I sure learned a ton from looking at the mini-redis implementation from the tokio team https://github.com/tokio-rs/mini-redis -- especially when you want to work with tokio! I think it's remarkably well structured and documented.

If https://github.com/tokio-rs/mini-redis does not help answer your question, could you elaborate a bit more on your struggle and we can see if we can fit it into our docs.

Tokio async runtime for Rust has a tutorial in its user guide https://tokio.rs/tokio/tutorial on writing a mini-redis (https://github.com/tokio-rs/mini-redis).

You may be able to take inspiration from mini-redis, which is a learning resource created by the Tokio project. Its purpose is to show off many common patterns in async Rust, and a shared hashmap is one of them.
