Vegemite is a simple, fast, synchronous framework built for finishing your projects.

Features

• Blazing fast performance (~600k req/sec on a ryzen 7 5700x with wrk)
• Built-in threading system that allows you to efficiently handle requests.
• Absolutely no async elements, improving ergonomics.
• Minimal build size, 500kb when stripped.
• Uses http a model library you may already be familiar with
• Magic function handlers! See Getting Started
• Unique routing system

Getting Started

Vegemite uses a set of handler systems and routing modules to handle requests and responses.
Here's a starting example of a Hello World server.

use vegemite::{run, sys, Get, Route, Response};
 
fn get(_get: Get) -> Response<String> {
    let content = String::from("<h1>Hello World</h1>");
 
    Response::builder()
        .status(200)
        .body(content)
        .unwrap()
} 
 
fn main() {
    let router = Route::new(sys![get]);
 
    run("127.0.0.1:8080", router);
} 

Let's break this down into its components.

Routing

The router will step through the page by its parts, first starting with the route. It will try to run all systems of every node it steps through. Once a response is received it will stop stepping over the request.

lets assume we have the router Route::new(sys![auth]).route("page", Route::new(sys![get_page])) and the request /page

In this example, we will first call auth if auth returns a response, say the user is not authorized and we would like to respond early, then we stop there. Otherwise we continue to the next node get_page

If no responses are returned the server will automatically return 404. This will be configuarable in the future.

Parameters/Guards

Function parameters can act as both getters and guards in vegemite.

In the example above, Get acts as a guard to make sure the system is only run on GET requests.

Any type that implements the trait Resolve<Output = ResolveGuard<Self>> is viable to use as a parameter.

vegemite will try to provide the most common guards and getters you will use but few are implemented currenty.

Example

pub struct Get;

impl Resolve for Get {
    fn resolve(ctx: &mut Context) -> ResolveGuard<Self> {
        if ctx.request.method() == Method::GET {
            ResolveGuard::Value(Get)
        } else {
            ResolveGuard::None
        }
    }
}

Return types

Systems are required to return a value that implements MaybeIntoResponse.

Additionally note the existence of IntoResponse which auto impls MaybeIntoResponse for any types that always return a response.

If a type returns None out of MaybeIntoResponse a response will not be sent and routing will continue to further nodes.

Example

impl IntoResponse for u16 {
    fn response(self) -> RawResponse {
        Response::builder()
            .version(Version::HTTP_10)
            .status(self)
            .header("Content-Type", "text/plain; charset=UTF-8")
            .header("Content-Length", "0")
            .body(Vec::new())
            .expect("Failed to build request")
    }
}
