Rust Blueprint

A scalable and modular blueprint for building web applications with Rust. Inspired by melkeydev/go-blueprint (in terms of tooling/templating), this project is designed to provide a solid starting point for new Rust projects with flexible framework, database, and pub/sub integration options.

Frameworks

Choose one of the following Rust web frameworks:

• Axum
• Rocket

Database

Multiple database options with ORM or pool-only modes:

• Diesel (ORM)
• Diesel (pool only)
• SeaORM
• SQLx

Middlewares

Enhance your application with these middleware components:

• Tenant middleware
• Authentication
  • Okta integration
  • Social login (Google, GitHub, etc.)

Caching

Leverage caching to optimize performance:

• In-Memory
• Redis

Pub/Sub

Real-time message brokers:

• NATS
• AMQP
• Redis

Docker

Containerization support for different environments:

• Local Development
• Production (e.g., Distroless)

Roadmap

Milestone 1: Initial Setup

• Project scaffolding with Axum or Rocket
• Basic Docker setup for local development
• Integrate database choice: Diesel, SeaORM, or SQLx

Milestone 2: Middleware & Authentication

• Implement tenant-based middleware
• Add Okta authentication
• Implement social login (Google, GitHub, etc.)

Milestone 3: Caching and Pub/Sub

• Integrate Redis caching
• Add support for NATS, AMQP, or Redis pub/sub

Milestone 4: Production Ready

• Optimize Docker setup for production (e.g., Distroless)
• Performance tuning and security hardening

Milestone 5: Testing and Documentation

• Add unit and integration tests
• Create detailed documentation

Future work

Add support for cargo workspace if needed
