tower VS axum

This question is partially inspired by this PR which is kinda trying to do the same thing.

dd-trace-layer is a middleware for sending Datadog's trace. It's based on Tower and OpenTelemetry Rust.

I'm pretty sure that GCP's APIs (unlike AWS, which uses Smithy for very genuinely, very good reason) are defined using Protobuf and can be communicated with over gRPC, which means that you don't need to bind via cxx to GCP's C++ APIs. Take a look at this example using Tonic. If you're to use Tonic, you'll also be able to use Tower's middleware (main crate, http-specific) to implement retries, timeouts, tracing, and all the other things you need to be production-ready.

#[derive(Clone)] struct MyMiddleware { inner: S, } impl Service> for MyMiddleware where S: Service, Response = Response> + Clone + Send + 'static, S::Future: Send + 'static, { type Response = S::Response; type Error = S::Error; type Future = BoxFuture<'static, Result>; fn poll_ready(&mut self, cx: &mut Context<'_>) -> Poll> { self.inner.poll_ready(cx) } fn call(&mut self, mut req: Request) -> Self::Future { println!("before"); // best practice is to clone the inner service like this // see https://github.com/tower-rs/tower/issues/547 for details let clone = self.inner.clone(); let mut inner = std::mem::replace(&mut self.inner, clone); Box::pin(async move { let res: Response = inner.call(req).await?; println!("after"); Ok(res) }) } } fn main() { let app = Router::new() .route("/", get(|| async { /* ... */ })) .layer(layer_fn(|inner| MyMiddleware { inner })); }

For this tutorial, we're going to use apalis to run cron jobs in an async context. We will also look at how to decorate our jobs with tower middleware allowing us to unlock features like retries, prometheus, sentry etc

So I have now had a look at Axum and think I will give it a try. In the readme in the repository it says something about tower or tower::Service and tonic, what exactly is that? I do not understand that yet.

Better compatibility with tower ecosystem.

ratpack is idealized in the simplicity of the sinatra (ruby) framework in its goal, and attempts to be an alternative to other async HTTP frameworks such as tower, warp, axum, and tide.

i would browse the standard library, tower, nom, or my own bitvec to see layout and trait/record separation. in particular, std::io and std::net may be of use: io::Read and io::Write are pervasive examples of implementing unixy file-descriptor-like behavior in the type system

We're not there yet. I keep an eye on Tower which looks promising to build on top of. And I keep an eye on MoonZoon (full stack framework, unashamedly opinionated!).

There are some proposals on how to do it already such as https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/issues/1698.

Moreover, I especially like where Rust is right now in the web space. It really feels like there’s a lot of smart people working on the next generation of web development tools - it feels like the place to be. There are a range of great open-source web dev tools that are just reaching critical levels of maturity. Axum, which I used to build Prodzilla, feels ready for out of the box web dev, and is crazy-performant, as I write about later. More recently available is Loco, a Rails-like framework for building web applications in Rust that's picking up steam. And in dev-tooling and hosting there’s Shuttle, a 1-line hosting solution for Rust backends.

CryptoFlow is a full-stack web application built with Axum and SvelteKit. It's a Q&A system tailored towards the world of cryptocurrency!

You also get to specify the accepted HTTP method of the URL via axum::routing. To answer its name, modularity, Axum also supports nested routes as we'll see later in this series. Next is the layer, a method used to apply tower::Layer to all routes before it. This means that routes added after the layer method will not have such a layer applied to their requests. In our case, we used the layer to add tracing to all HTTP requests and responses to our routes. This is needed for proper logging. The tower_http::trace::TraceLayer can even be really customised.

I build simple rust axum api server with Prisma client rust. This is my something done with rust and I really enjoyed rust!

In this article we'll take a comprehensive look at how to use Axum to write a web service. This will also include the 0.7 changes.

You have a couple of options for the underlying web framework to pair with Leptos: Axum or Actix. Axum seems to carry more favour currently, so we start with that. Assuming you already have Rust set up on your system:

I’m the author of https://kellnr.io. When I started working on Kellnr three years ago, https://rocket.rs was “the web framework” to use. Unfortunately, the project seems dead. Before adding more functionality using an unmaintained framework, I want to port Kellnr to https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum.

Web Framework : axum.
