rocketjson

Crate for working with Json and Rocket. Ultimately the goal is to have validated Structs enter and leave the endpoint as Json while having everything happen in the background.

Example

#[macro_use] extern crate rocket;

#[derive(serde::Deserialize, validator::Validate, rocketjson::JsonBody)]
pub struct RegisterRequest {
   #[validate(length(min = 1))]
   username: String 
}

#[derive(serde::Serialize)]
pub struct RegisterResponse {
   message: String
}

#[post("/register", data="<data>")]
pub fn register(data: RegisterRequest) -> rocketjson::ApiResponse<RegisterResponse> {
   rocketjson::ApiResponse::new(rocket::http::Status::Ok, RegisterResponse { message: format!("Welcome {}", data.username) })
}

#[launch]
fn rocket() -> _ {
    rocket::build()
        .mount("/", routes![register]).
        register("/", vec![rocketjson::error::get_catcher()])
}
