Web service that displays the hit count by using Axum, Tokio, Rust.

This is a very simple web service that we use for testing our systems.

Steps

Run the service using the default address 0.0.0.0:8080:

cargo run

Browse https://localhost:8080/count

You should see a web page that displays the hit count.

Use your browser to reload the web page.

You should see the hit count increase by one.

Options

Run the service using a command line option for a custom address:

cargo run -- "1.2.3.4:5678"

Run the service using an environment variable for a custom address:

export ADDRESS="1.2.3.4:5678"
cargo run
