Rust TodoMVC

Code for the to do app from the book Rust Web Programming. The code will be gradually improved as I learn Rust more.

Running the application

• cargo run
• RUST_LOG="info,parser::expression=info,actix_web=info" cargo run for running it with logging enabled
• RUST_LOG="info,parser::expression=info,actix_web=info" cargo run --release for running it in release mode

Note that the code in this repo is missing the .env and the docker-compose.yml files. You will need to add the connection details for your PostgreSQL database: DATABASE_URL=postgres://username:password@localhost/to_do . The docker-compose.yml file is optional, you don't have to run PostgreSQL in a container. If you choose to run it in a container, the file looks something like this:

version: "3.7"

services:

  postgres:
    container_name: 'to-do-postgres'
    image: 'postgres:11.2'
    restart: always
    ports:
      - '5432:5432'
    environment:
      - 'POSTGRES_USER=username'
      - 'POSTGRES_DB=to_do'
      - 'POSTGRES_PASSWORD=password'

To do:

• Improve security
• Add more tests
• Refactor to onion architecture
• Replace the frontend code from the book with Rust WebAssembly, using a framework like Yew.
