Install Rust as described here.
SQLx is an async, pure Rust SQL crate featuring compile-time checked queries without a DSL.
SQLx-CLI is SQLx's associated command-line utility for managing databases, migrations, and enabling "offline" mode with sqlx::query!() and friends.
It is published on the Cargo crates registry as sqlx-cli
and can be installed like so:
cargo install sqlx-cli --features postgres
The following script will start the latest version of Postgres using Docker, create the database and run the migrations.
./scripts/init_db.sh
There are 3 steps to building with "offline mode":
- Enable the SQLx's Cargo feature offline
- E.g. in your Cargo.toml, sqlx = { features = [ "offline", ... ] }
- Save query metadata for offline usage
cargo sqlx prepare
- Build
Configuring the backend application is done, preferentially, via environment variables. To make working with environment variables easier during development, we can use .env files to avoid having to define the variables every time.
As a starting point, you can simply cp sample.env .env
in this repo and modify the .env
file as described by
the comments there.
With everything else set up, all you need to do at this point is:
cargo run
If successful, the API server is now listening at port 8080.
Use cargo-watch
for hot reloading the server.
cargo watch -x run
Run unit tests with:
cargo test
Run behavioral tests with:
cargo test --test cucumber
Output World
on fail with:
cargo test --test cucumber -- -vv
Format with:
cargo fmt --check
Lint with:
cargo clippy -- -D warnings
Check code coverage:
cargo tarpaulin --verbose --workspace
