Helps you write your Cloud Foundry Route Services with ease using axum.
Writing Route Service Apps for Cloud Foundry is awesome but its not boilerplate free.
- Manage headers on proxyied requests and responses
- Differentiate between proxy and api requests
So what does this crate do?
- Manage
X-CF-PROXY*
headers on requests and responses - Manages 2 different routers, one for api and one for proxy requests
- Manages
X-Request-Id
to be end-to-end - Integrates with
tracing
to give you debug, error and info messages as well as spans to differentiate api and proxy requests - Exposes a function to proxy a given request
- Manages graceful shutdown
- It will run on the port specified by cf on releases and lets you use
dotenv
on debug builds
This allows you to write your app as a normal axum app without needing to think of the needless What if
s.
Let's add the crate to your Cargo.toml
:
cargo add cf-route-services
After that, the simplest you can start with is the following:
const BEHIND_PROXY: bool = false;
const ALLOW_DOTENV_ON_DEBUG: bool = false;
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
cf_route_services::serve::<BEHIND_PROXY, ALLOW_DOTENV_ON_DEBUG>(None, None).await;
}
This will setup a route service with no api and a proxy to proxy every request as is.
An a bit more real world example would be counting requests.
#[macro_use]
extern crate tracing;
#[macro_use]
extern crate lazy_static;
use axum::{
body::{Body, Bytes},
response::IntoResponse,
routing::{any, get},
Error, Router,
};
use http::{Request, Response};
use http_body::combinators::UnsyncBoxBody;
use tokio::sync::Mutex;
use tracing_subscriber::{layer::SubscriberExt, util::SubscriberInitExt};
const EXPOSE_INTERNAL_ERRORS: bool = false;
const BEHIND_PROXY: bool = false;
const ALLOW_DOTENV_ON_DEBUG: bool = false;
lazy_static! {
static ref COUNTER: Mutex<u8> = Mutex::new(0);
}
async fn count() -> Response<UnsyncBoxBody<Bytes, Error>> {
(http::StatusCode::OK, format!("{}", *COUNTER.lock().await)).into_response()
}
async fn reset() {
*COUNTER.lock().await = 0;
}
async fn handler(req: Request<Body>) -> Response<Body> {
let mut counter = COUNTER.lock().await;
*counter += 1;
drop(counter);
cf_route_services::proxy_request::<EXPOSE_INTERNAL_ERRORS>(req).await
}
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
// Used to see all tracing logs of level info in stdout
tracing_subscriber::registry()
.with(tracing_subscriber::EnvFilter::new(
std::env::var("RUST_LOG").unwrap_or_else(|_| "info".into()),
))
.with(tracing_subscriber::fmt::layer())
.init();
// Sets up an api `Router` to get and delete the count
let api_router = Router::new().route("/api/count", get(count).delete(reset));
// Proxy setup to handle any request received
let proxy_router = Router::new().route("/", any(handler));
cf_route_services::serve::<BEHIND_PROXY, ALLOW_DOTENV_ON_DEBUG>(Some(api_router), Some(proxy_router)).await;
info!("shut down, self cleanup");
