axum
is a web application framework that focuses on ergonomics and modularity.
More information about this crate can be found in the crate documentation.
tower
and tower-http
ecosystem of
middleware, services, and utilities.In particular the last point is what sets axum
apart from other frameworks.
axum
doesn't have its own middleware system but instead uses
tower::Service
. This means axum
gets timeouts, tracing, compression,
authorization, and more, for free. It also enables you to share middleware with
applications written using hyper
or tonic
.
use axum::{
routing::{get, post},
http::StatusCode,
Json, Router,
};
use serde::{Deserialize, Serialize};
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
// initialize tracing
tracing_subscriber::fmt::init();
// build our application with a route
let app = Router::new()
// `GET /` goes to `root`
.route("/", get(root))
// `POST /users` goes to `create_user`
.route("/users", post(create_user));
// run our app with hyper, listening globally on port 3000
let listener = tokio::net::TcpListener::bind("0.0.0.0:3000").await.unwrap();
axum::serve(listener, app).await.unwrap();
}
// basic handler that responds with a static string
async fn root() -> &'static str {
"Hello, World!"
}
async fn create_user(
// this argument tells axum to parse the request body
// as JSON into a `CreateUser` type
Json(payload): Json<CreateUser>,
) -> (StatusCode, Json<User>) {
// insert your application logic here
let user = User {
id: 1337,
username: payload.username,
};
// this will be converted into a JSON response
// with a status code of `201 Created`
(StatusCode::CREATED, Json(user))
}
// the input to our `create_user` handler
#[derive(Deserialize)]
struct CreateUser {
username: String,
}
// the output to our `create_user` handler
#[derive(Serialize)]
struct User {
id: u64,
username: String,
}
You can find this example as well as other example projects in the example directory.
See the crate documentation for way more examples.
axum
is a relatively thin layer on top of hyper
and adds very little
overhead. So axum
's performance is comparable to hyper
. You can find
benchmarks here and
here.
This crate uses #![forbid(unsafe_code)]
to ensure everything is implemented in
100% safe Rust.
axum's MSRV is 1.66.
The examples folder contains various examples of how to use axum
. The
docs also provide lots of code snippets and examples. For full-fledged examples, check out community-maintained showcases or tutorials.
In the axum
's repo we also have a number of examples showing how
to put everything together. Community-maintained showcases and tutorials also demonstrate how to use axum
for real-world applications. You're also welcome to ask in the Discord channel or open a discussion with your question.
