lest
This crate provides a modular abstraction over actix-web
allowing advanced guarding, request/response verification and separate modules. The concepts are designed to be similar to NestJS and ElysiaJS in terms of modularity and request/response verification. It's designed to be easy, and uses my other library libcoerced
to provide advanced verification.
Example
Basic Usage
This provides a root route and serves a directory excluding the path routes/**
.
use lest::{models::{guard::Guard, app::App, request::Request, response::{Response, Status}, route::{Route, RouteResponse}, served::Served}, types::method::Method, leaked};
fn route_handler(_req: Request) -> RouteResponse {
Box::pin(async {
let mut response = Response::new(Status::from_u16(302));
response.redirect("/index.html".to_string());
Ok(response)
})
}
let root_route = Route::new(
Method::Get, // Require GET method
route_handler, /// Route handler
None, // NO request verification
None, // NO response verification
Guard::Combine(Box::from([
Guard::Host("localhost"),
Guard::Port(8080),
])) // Enforce host and port
);
let mut app = App::new(("/".to_string(), Some(root_route)));
app.dir(Served {
root: "/".to_string(),
path: "static".to_string(),
index_html: true,
}, Box::from([
"routes/**",
]));
leaked(app)
.serve(
8080,
Box::pin(async {
println!("Server started at http://localhost:8080");
})
).await;
Features
Lest is designed to have everything you need out of the box- no middlewares, no extra dependencies.
- Guarding: Enforce host, port, methods, headers, query parameters and more.
- Request/Response Verification: Verify request and response bodies.
- Modular: Separates different routes into different modules.
- Easy: Designed to be easy to use and understand.
- Rewrites: Rewrite request paths to different paths.
- Serving: Serve directories and files and exclude restricted paths.
