Tide VS warp

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.

I tried warp [0] and I am unimpressed so far. Pretty complex, limited documentation, buggy. The builder paradigm they used feels pretty constrained and, in my opinion, achieve the opposite of the simplicity it is supposed to bring. I was surprised it is so popular.

Maybe I need more time or a favorable comparison to another framework to appreciate it.

Have you gone through the (examples)[https://github.com/seanmonstar/warp/blob/master/examples/]? There's actually a lot of explicit instructions here on how to use Warp, and all of them are very straightforward to read (e.g., (this example with route parameters and a POST'ed body)[https://github.com/seanmonstar/warp/blob/master/examples/body.rs])

There are numerous guides how to do custom error messages using the routes .recover() method (including the official one ), but it seems quite inflexible since I can't (seem to?) pass the actual error messages back to user.

What I see on the examples for the warp crate is that the examples do this:

You might want to consider using Alacritty instead of Warp. Warp is VC-funded, macOS only, closed source, and it phones home. They also kinda stole the name of a web framework.

warp server,

Hello, I'd need some help with warp routes since I'm not familiar with the framework. If somebody knows how to do this I'd appreciate very much.

If one were to undertake a project of developing something like this, which is the best web framework for it. I did some cursory research and discovered these back-end frameworks - actix, axum, poem, salvo, warp, gotham and rocket.

We've added support for the warp, salvo & thruster frameworks
