From 8d3f1d65ac514fa3b3d354b9278c18bf2449ef65 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sergio Benitez Date: Fri, 10 Jun 2022 11:21:15 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Reorganize and upgrade markup in site docs. The guide is now in docs/guide. All other site assets are being migrated to a separate repository. The guide markup has been upgraded to take advantages of improvements in the static site generator used to build the Rocket website. --- .gitattributes | 6 + Cargo.toml | 2 +- README.md | 2 +- {site => docs}/LICENSE | 53 -- .../guide/00-introduction.md | 4 + docs/guide/01-upgrading.md | 16 + .../guide/02-quickstart.md | 10 +- .../guide/03-getting-started.md | 13 +- .../guide/04-overview.md | 30 +- .../guide/05-requests.md | 163 ++--- .../guide/06-responses.md | 98 +-- .../6-state.md => docs/guide/07-state.md | 45 +- .../guide/08-fairings.md | 34 +- .../8-testing.md => docs/guide/09-testing.md | 36 +- .../guide/10-configuration.md | 69 +- .../guide/11-pastebin.md | 39 +- docs/guide/12-conclusion.md | 25 + site/guide/12-faq.md => docs/guide/13-faq.md | 294 ++++----- docs/guide/index.md | 25 + {site => docs}/tests/Cargo.toml | 5 +- docs/tests/src/guide.rs | 1 + {site => docs}/tests/src/lib.rs | 4 +- docs/tests/src/readme.rs | 1 + scripts/mk-docs.sh | 4 +- site/README.md | 46 -- site/guide/01-upgrading.md | 14 -

Rocket makes it simple to write fast web applications without -sacrificing flexibility or type safety. All with minimal code. - -> Rocket's so simple, you feel like you're doing something wrong. It's like if -> you're making fire with rocks and suddenly someone gives you a lighter. Even -> though you know the lighter makes fire, and does it even faster and better and -> with a simple flick, the rock's still in your brain. -> -> -- Artem "impowski" Biryukov, January 17, 2017, on **#rocket** - -## New Features - -Rocket v0.2 includes several new features that make developing Rocket -applications simpler, faster, and safer than ever before. - -### Managed State - -Undoubtedly, the star feature of this release is **managed state**. Managed -state allows you to pass state to Rocket prior to launching your application and -later retrieve that state from any request handler by simply including the -state's type in the function signature. It works in two easy steps: - - 1. Call `manage` on the `Rocket` instance corresponding to your application - with the initial value of the state. - 2. Add a `State` type to any request handler, where `T` is the type of the - value passed into `manage`. - -Rocket takes care of the rest! `State` works through Rocket's [request -guards](@guide-v0.3/requests/#request-guards). You can call `manage` any number -of times, as long as each call corresponds to a value of a different type. - -As a simple example, consider the following "hit counter" example application: - -```rust -struct HitCount(AtomicUsize); - -#[get("/")] -fn index(hit_count: State) -> &'static str { - hit_count.0.fetch_add(1, Ordering::Relaxed); - "Your visit has been recorded!" -} - -#[get("/count")] -fn count(hit_count: State) -> String { - hit_count.0.load(Ordering::Relaxed).to_string() -} - -fn main() { - rocket::ignite() - .mount("/", routes![index, count]) - .manage(HitCount(AtomicUsize::new(0))) - .launch() -} -``` - -Visiting `/` will record a visit by incrementing the hit count by 1. Visiting -the `/count` path will display the current hit count. - -One concern when using _managed state_ is that you might forget to call `manage` -with some state's value before launching your application. Not to worry: Rocket -has your back! Let's imagine for a second that we forgot to add the call to -`manage` on line 17 in the example above. Here's what the compiler would emit -when we compile our buggy application: - -```rust -warning: HitCount is not currently being managed by Rocket - --> src/main.rs:4:21 - | -4 | fn index(hit_count: State) -> &'static str { - | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ - | - = note: this State request guard will always fail -help: maybe add a call to 'manage' here? - --> src/main.rs:15:5 - | -15| rocket::ignite() - | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ - -warning: HitCount is not currently being managed by Rocket - --> src/main.rs:10:21 - | -10 | fn count(hit_count: State) -> String { - | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ - | - = note: this State request guard will always fail -help: maybe add a call to 'manage' here? - --> src/main.rs:15:5 - | -15 | rocket::ignite() - | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ -``` - -You can read more about managed state in the [guide](@guide-v0.3/state/), the -API docs for [manage](@api-v0.3/rocket/struct.Rocket.html#method.manage), and the API -docs for [State](@api-v0.3/rocket/struct.State.html). - -### Unmounted Routes Lint - -A common mistake that new Rocketeers make is forgetting to -[mount](@guide-v0.3/overview/#mounting) declared routes. In Rocket v0.2, Rocket -adds a _lint_ that results in a compile-time warning for unmounted routes. As a -simple illustration, consider the canonical "Hello, world!" Rocket application -below, and note that we've forgotten to mount the `hello` route: - -```rust -#[get("/")] -fn hello() -> &'static str { - "Hello, world!" -} - -fn main() { - rocket::ignite().launch(); -} -``` - -When this program is compiled, the compiler emits the following warning: - -```rust -warning: the 'hello' route is not mounted - --> src/main.rs:2:1 - | -2 | fn hello() -> &'static str { - | _^ starting here... -3 | | "Hello, world!" -4 | | } - | |_^ ...ending here - | - = note: Rocket will not dispatch requests to unmounted routes. -help: maybe add a call to 'mount' here? - --> src/main.rs:7:5 - | -7 | rocket::ignite().launch(); - | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ -``` - -The lint can be disabled selectively per route by adding an -`#[allow(unmounted_route)]` annotation to a given route declaration. It can also -be disabled globally by adding `#![allow(unmounted_route)]`. You can read more -about this lint in the [codegen documentation](@api-v0.3/rocket_codegen/index.html). - -### Configuration via Environment Variables - -A new feature that makes deploying Rocket apps to the cloud a little easier is -configuration via environment variables. Simply put, any configuration parameter -can be set via an environment variable of the form `ROCKET_{PARAM}`, where -`{PARAM}` is the name of the configuration parameter. For example, to set the -`port` Rocket listens on, simply set the `ROCKET_PORT` environment variable: - -```sh -ROCKET_PORT=3000 cargo run --release -``` - -Configuration parameters set via environment variables take precedence over -parameters set via the `Rocket.toml` configuration file. Note that _any_ -parameter can be set via an environment variable, include _extras_. For more -about configuration in Rocket, see the [configuration section of the -guide](@guide-v0.3/configuration). - -### And Plenty More! - -Rocket v0.2 is full of many new features! In addition to the three features -described above, v0.2 also includes the following: - - * `Config` structures can be built via `ConfigBuilder`, which follows the - builder pattern. - * Logging can be enabled or disabled on custom configuration via a second - parameter to the `Rocket::custom` method. - * `name` and `value` methods were added to `Header` to retrieve the name and - value of a header. - * A new configuration parameter, `workers`, can be used to set the number of - threads Rocket uses. - * The address of the remote connection is available via `Request.remote()`. - Request preprocessing overrides remote IP with value from the `X-Real-IP` - header, if present. - * During testing, the remote address can be set via `MockRequest.remote()`. - * The `SocketAddr` request guard retrieves the remote address. - * A `UUID` type has been added to `contrib`. - * `rocket` and `rocket_codegen` will refuse to build with an incompatible - nightly version and emit nice error messages. - * Major performance and usability improvements were upstreamed to the `cookie` - crate, including the addition of a `CookieBuilder`. - * When a checkbox isn't present in a form, `bool` types in a `FromForm` - structure will parse as `false`. - * The `FormItems` iterator can be queried for a complete parse via `completed` - and `exhausted`. - * Routes for `OPTIONS` requests can be declared via the `options` decorator. - * Strings can be percent-encoded via `URI::percent_encode()`. - -## Breaking Changes - -This release includes several breaking changes. These changes are listed below -along with a short note about how to handle the breaking change in existing -applications. - - * **`Rocket::custom` takes two parameters, the first being `Config` by - value.** - - A call in v0.1 of the form `Rocket::custom(&config)` is now - `Rocket::custom(config, false)`. - - * **Tera templates are named without their extension.** - - A templated named `name.html.tera` is now simply `name`. - - * **`JSON` `unwrap` method has been renamed to `into_inner`.** - - A call to `.unwrap()` should be changed to `.into_inner()`. - - * **The `map!` macro was removed in favor of the `json!` macro.** - - A call of the form `map!{ "a" => b }` can be written as: `json!({ "a": b - })`. - - * **The `hyper::SetCookie` header is no longer exported.** - - Use the `Cookie` type as an `Into
` type directly. - - * **The `Content-Type` for `String` is now `text/plain`.** - - Use `content::HTML` for HTML-based `String` responses. - - * **`Request.content_type()` returns an `Option`.** - - Use `.unwrap_or(ContentType::Any)` to get the old behavior. - - * **The `ContentType` request guard forwards when the request has no - `Content-Type` header.** - - Use an `Option` and `.unwrap_or(ContentType::Any)` for the old - behavior. - - * **A `Rocket` instance must be declared _before_ a `MockRequest`.** - - Change the order of the `rocket::ignite()` and `MockRequest::new()` calls. - - * **A route with `format` specified only matches requests with the same - format.** - - Previously, a route with a `format` would match requests without a format - specified. There is no workaround to this change; simply specify formats - when required. - - * **`FormItems` can no longer be constructed directly.** - - Instead of constructing as `FormItems(string)`, construct as - `FormItems::from(string)`. - - * **`from_from_string(&str)` in `FromForm` removed in favor of - `from_form_items(&mut FormItems)`.** - - Most implementation should be using `FormItems` internally; simply use the - passed in `FormItems`. In other cases, the form string can be retrieved via - the `inner_str` method of `FormItems`. - - * **`Config::{set, default_for}` are deprecated.** - - Use the `set_{param}` methods instead of `set`, and `new` or `build` in - place of `default_for`. - - * **Route paths must be absolute.** - - Prepend a `/` to convert a relative path into an absolute one. - - * **Route paths cannot contain empty segments.** - - Remove any empty segments, including trailing ones, from a route path. - -## Bug Fixes - -Three bugs were fixed in this release: - - * Handlebars partials were not properly registered - ([#122](https://github.com/rwf2/Rocket/issues/122)). - * `Rocket::custom` did not set the custom configuration as the `active` - configuration. - * Route path segments with more than one dynamic parameter were erroneously - allowed. - -## General Improvements - -In addition to new features, Rocket saw the following smaller improvements: - - * Rocket no longer overwrites a catcher's response status. - * The `port` `Config` type is now a proper `u16`. - * Clippy issues injected by codegen are resolved. - * Handlebars was updated to `0.25`. - * The `PartialEq` implementation of `Config` doesn't consider the path or - session key. - * Hyper dependency updated to `0.10`. - * The `Error` type for `JSON as FromData` has been exposed as `SerdeError`. - * SVG was added as a known Content-Type. - * Serde was updated to `0.9`. - * Form parse failure now results in a **422** error code. - * Tera has been updated to `0.7`. - * `pub(crate)` is used throughout to enforce visibility rules. - * Query parameters in routes (`/path?`) are now logged. - * Routes with and without query parameters no longer _collide_. - -Rocket v0.2 also includes all of the new features, bug fixes, and improvements -from versions 0.1.1 through 0.1.6. You can read more about these changes in the -[v0.1 -CHANGELOG](https://github.com/rwf2/Rocket/blob/v0.1/CHANGELOG.md). - -## What's next? - -Work now begins on Rocket v0.3! The focus of the next major release will be on -security. In particular, three major security features are planned: - - 1. **Automatic CSRF protection across all payload-based requests - ([#14](https://github.com/rwf2/Rocket/issues/14)).** - - Rocket will automatically check the origin of requests made for HTTP `PUT`, - `POST`, `DELETE`, and `PATCH` requests, allowing only authorized requests to - be dispatched. This includes checking `POST`s from form submissions and any - requests made via JavaScript. - - 2. **Encryption and signing of session-based cookies - ([#20](https://github.com/rwf2/Rocket/issues/20)).** - - Built-in session support will encrypt and sign cookies using a user supplied - `session_key`. Encryption and signing will occur automatically for - session-based cookies. - - 3. **Explicit typing of raw HTTP data strings - ([#43](https://github.com/rwf2/Rocket/issues/43)).** - - A present, the standard `&str` type is used to represent raw HTTP data - strings. In the next release, a new type, `&RawStr`, will be used for this - purpose. This will make it clear when raw data is being handled. The type - will expose convenient methods such as `.url_decode()` and `.html_escape()`. - -Work on Rocket v0.3 will also involve exploring built-in support for user -authentication and authorization as well as automatic parsing of multipart -forms. - -## Contributors to v0.2 - -The following wonderful people helped make Rocket v0.2 happen: - -

As an example, consider the code below which sets and -retrieves a `user_id` private cookie in two routes: - -```rust -/// Retrieve the user's ID, if any. -#[get("/user_id")] -fn user_id(cookies: Cookies) -> Option { - request.cookies() - .get_private("user_id") - .map(|cookie| format!("User ID: {}", cookie.value())) -} - -/// Remove the `user_id` cookie. -#[post("/logout")] -fn logout(mut cookies: Cookies) -> Flash { - cookies.remove_private(Cookie::named("user_id")); - Flash::success(Redirect::to("/"), "Successfully logged out.") -} -``` - -To encrypt private cookies, Rocket uses the 256-bit key specified in the -`secret_key` configuration parameter. If one is not specified, Rocket -automatically generates a fresh key at launch. - -For more details on private cookies, see the [private cookies] section of the -guide. - -[`Cookies`]: @api-v0.3/rocket/http/enum.Cookies.html -[`get_private`]: @api-v0.3/rocket/http/enum.Cookies.html#method.get_private -[`add_private`]: @api-v0.3/rocket/http/enum.Cookies.html#method.add_private -[`remove_private`]: @api-v0.3/rocket/http/enum.Cookies.html#method.remove_private -[private cookies]: @guide-v0.3/requests/#private-cookies - -### Form Field Naming - -In 0.2 and below, Rocket always matches form field names to structure field -names exactly when deriving [`FromForm`]. This presented an issue when an -invalid Rust identifier was used as a form field's name. For example, it was not -possible to represent a form with a field name of "type" since `type` is a -keyword and thus an illegal identifier. The following resulted in a compile-time -error: - -```rust -#[derive(FromForm)] -struct External { - type: String -} -``` - -In Rocket 0.3, you can ask Rocket to match against a different form field for a -given structure field by using the `#[form(field = "name")]` field annotation. -As a result, the "type" form field can now be captured using something like the -following: - -```rust -#[derive(FromForm)] -struct External { - #[form(field = "type")] - api_type: String -} -``` - -Rocket will automatically match the form field named "type" to the structure -field named `api_type`. For more details on form field naming, see the [field -renaming](@guide-v0.3/requests/#field-renaming) section of the guide. - -[`FromForm`]: @api-v0.3/rocket/request/trait.FromForm.html - -### And Plenty More! - -In addition to the four highlighted above, Rocket 0.3 also ships with the -following new features: - - * A [`MsgPack`] type has been added for simple consumption and returning of - MessagePack data. - * [`Rocket::launch()`] returns launch failures ([`LaunchError`]) for - inspection without panicking. - * Routes without query parameters now match requests with or without query - parameters. - * [Default rankings] prefer static paths and routes with query string matches. - * A native [`Accept`] header structure was added. - * The [`Accept`] request header can be retrieved via [`Request::accept()`]. - * All active routes can be retrieved via [`Rocket::routes()`]. - * [`Response::body_string()`] was added to retrieve the response body as a - `String`. - * [`Response::body_bytes()`] was added to retrieve the response body as a - `Vec`. - * [`Response::content_type()`] was added to retrieve the Content-Type header - of a response. - * Data limits on incoming data are [now - configurable](@guide-v0.3/configuration/#data-limits). - * [`Request::limits()`] was added to retrieve incoming data limits. - * Responders may dynamically adjust their response based on the incoming - request. - * [`Request::guard()`] was added for simple retrieval of request guards. - * [`Request::route()`] was added to retrieve the active route, if any. - * [`&Route`] is now a request guard. - * The base mount path of a [`Route`] can be retrieved via `Route::base` or - `Route::base()`. - * `Config::{development, staging, production}` constructors were added for - [`Config`]. - * [`Config::get_datetime()`] was added to retrieve an extra as a `Datetime`. - * Forms can be now parsed _leniently_ via the new [`LenientForm`] data guard. - * The `?` operator can now be used with `Outcome`. - * Quoted string, array, and table [configuration parameters] can be set via - environment variables. - * Log coloring is disabled when `stdout` is not a TTY. - * [`FromForm`] is implemented for `Option`, `Result`. - * The [`NotFound`] responder was added for simple **404** response - construction. - -[`MsgPack`]: @api-v0.3/rocket_contrib/msgpack/struct.MsgPack.html -[`Rocket::launch()`]: @api-v0.3/rocket/struct.Rocket.html#method.launch -[`LaunchError`]: @api-v0.3/rocket/error/struct.LaunchError.html -[Default rankings]: @api-v0.3/rocket/struct.Route.html -[`&Route`]: @api-v0.3/rocket/struct.Route.html -[`Route`]: @api-v0.3/rocket/struct.Route.html -[`Accept`]: @api-v0.3/rocket/http/struct.Accept.html -[`Request::accept()`]: @api-v0.3/rocket/struct.Request.html#method.accept -[`contrib`]: @api-v0.3/rocket_contrib/ -[`Rocket::routes()`]: @api-v0.3/rocket/struct.Rocket.html#method.routes -[`Response::body_string()`]: @api-v0.3/rocket/struct.Response.html#method.body_string -[`Response::body_bytes()`]: @api-v0.3/rocket/struct.Response.html#method.body_bytes -[`Response::content_type()`]: @api-v0.3/rocket/struct.Response.html#method.content_type -[`Request::guard()`]: @api-v0.3/rocket/struct.Request.html#method.guard -[`Request::limits()`]: @api-v0.3/rocket/struct.Request.html#method.limits -[`Request::route()`]: @api-v0.3/rocket/struct.Request.html#method.route -[`Config`]: @api-v0.3/rocket/struct.Config.html -[`Cookies`]: @api-v0.3/rocket/http/enum.Cookies.html -[`Config::get_datetime()`]: @api-v0.3/rocket/struct.Config.html#method.get_datetime -[`LenientForm`]: @api-v0.3/rocket/request/struct.LenientForm.html -[configuration parameters]: @api-v0.3/rocket/config/index.html#environment-variables -[`NotFound`]: @api-v0.3/rocket/response/status/struct.NotFound.html - -## Breaking Changes - -This release includes many breaking changes such as support for `serde` 1.0.

The focus of the next major release is two-fold: security -and usability. The following major features are planned: - - 1. **Automatic CSRF protection across all payload-based requests - ([#14](https://github.com/rwf2/Rocket/issues/14)).** - - This is a carry-over from the 0.3 wishlist. Rocket will automatically check - the origin of requests made for HTTP `PUT`, `POST`, `DELETE`, and `PATCH` - requests, allowing only valid requests to be dispatched. This includes - checking form submissions and requests made via JavaScript. - - 2. **First-class database support - ([#167](https://github.com/rwf2/Rocket/issues/167)).** - - Connecting a database to Rocket is presently [much wordier than necessary]. - The plan for 0.4 is to minimize the amount of effort. At most, a couple of - lines of configuration and a single line of initialization code should be - required. - - 3. **Typed URL generation from routes - ([#263](https://github.com/rwf2/Rocket/issues/263)).** - - Explicitly writing URLs is error-prone. Because routes are fully-typed in - Rocket, it's possible to check that a URL corresponding to a route - type-checks. In the next release, a `url!` macro will be available to - automatically generate URLs for routes in a type-safe manner. - -[much wordier than necessary]: @guide-v0.3/state/#databases - -## Contributors to v0.3 - -The following wonderful people helped make Rocket v0.3 happen: - -

Type or route parameter -mismatches are caught at compile-time, and changes to route URIs are -automatically reflected in the generated URIs. - -To illustrate, consider the following route: - -```rust -#[get("/person/?")] -fn person(name: String, age: Option) -``` - -URIs to this `person` route can be created as follows: - -```rust -// with unnamed parameters, in route URI declaration order -let uri = uri!(person: "Mike Smith", 28); -assert_eq!(uri.to_string(), "/person/Mike%20Smith?age=28"); - -// with named parameters, order irrelevant -let uri = uri!(person: name = "Mike", age = 28); -let uri = uri!(person: age = 28, name = "Mike"); -assert_eq!(uri.to_string(), "/person/Mike?age=28"); - -// with a specific mount-point -let uri = uri!("/api", person: name = "Mike", age = 28); -assert_eq!(uri.to_string(), "/api/person/Mike?age=28"); - -// with optional query parameters ignored -let uri = uri!(person: "Mike", _); -let uri = uri!(person: name = "Mike", age = _); -assert_eq!(uri.to_string(), "/person/Mike"); -``` - -Should your route's URI change in an incompatible manner, or should you mistype -parameters, Rocket informs you of the error at compile-time with a helpful -message: - -```rust -error: person route uri expects 2 parameters but 1 was supplied - --> examples/uri/src/main.rs:9:29 - | -9 | uri!(person: "Mike Smith"); - | ^^^^^^^^^^^^ - | - = note: expected parameters: name: String, age: Option -``` - -The same applies to type errors: Rocket informs you of any type errors at -compile-time as well: - -```rust -error: the trait bound u8: FromUriParam is not satisfied - --> examples/uri/src/main.rs:9:35 - | -9 | uri!(person: age = "10", name = "Mike"); - | ^^^^ FromUriParam is not implemented for u8 - | -``` - -We recommend that `uri!` is exclusively used when constructing route URIs. For -more information on typed URIs, see the new [Typed URIs] guide section and the -[`uri!`] macro documentation. - -[`uri!`]: @api-v0.4/rocket_codegen/macro.uri.html -[Typed URIs]: @guide-v0.4/responses/#typed-uris - -### Database Support - -Rocket now includes built-in, ORM-agnostic support for database connection -pooling. More specifically, Rocket allows you to easily configure and connect -your Rocket application to databases through connection pools in three simple, -largely automated steps: - - 1. Configure databases in `Rocket.toml`. - 2. Associate a request guard type and fairing with each database. - 3. Use the request guard to retrieve a connection in a handler. - -As an example, for a Diesel-based SQLite database named `sqlite_logs`, your -`Rocket.toml` would record the URL to the database in the `databases` table: - -```toml -[global.databases] -sqlite_logs = { url = "/path/to/database.sqlite" } -``` - -In the application, a unit-like `struct` with one internal type (the database -connection) is decorated with the `#[database]` attribute and the name of the -configured database. This generates a fairing which must then be attached: - -```rust -#[database("sqlite_logs")] -struct LogsDbConn(diesel::SqliteConnection); - -rocket::ignite().attach(LogsDbConn::fairing()) -``` - -That's it! Whenever a connection to the database is needed, the type can be used -as a request guard: - -```rust -#[get("/logs/")] -fn get_logs(conn: LogsDbConn, id: usize) -> Result { - logs::filter(id.eq(log_id)).load(&conn) -} -``` - -For more information on Rocket's database support, see the new [Database] guide -section and the [`rocket_contrib::databases`] module documentation. - -[Database]: @guide-v0.4/state/#databases -[`rocket_contrib::databases`]: @api-v0.4/rocket_contrib/databases/index.html - -### Revamped Queries - -In Rocket 0.4, query string handling has been completely overhauled, resolving -some of the most called for requests in Rocket's history ([#608]). The new query -handling route syntax and semantics were designed with the following goals in -mind: - - * Enable matching of static query components. - * No special-casing of any kind, preferring type-driven flows. - * Ad-hoc matching of specific query key/value pairs. - * Lenient parsing by default, allowing missing parameters. - * Order-independent matching of query parameters. - -To illustrate the new system in action, consider the following route: - -```rust -#[derive(FromForm)] -struct DogDetails { - color: Color, - height: Inches, - weight: Pounds -} - -#[get("/animal?dog&&&")] -fn dog(name: String, nickname: Option, rest: Form) -``` - -This route matches any `GET` request with a path of `/animal`, a static query -component of `dog`, and key/value parameters of `color`, `height`, and `weight` -that validate as `Color`, `Inches`, and `Pounds`, respectively. Furthermore, it -optionally accepts a key/value parameter of `nickname`. If the value is present, -`nickname` will be `Some`; if it is not, `nickname` will be `None`. - -Single parameters (``) like `name` and `nickname` are validated using the -existing [`FromFormValue`] trait while trailing parameters (``) are -validated using the new [`FromQuery`] trait. Both traits are user implementable, -and [`FromFormValue`] can be derived. - -For more details on handling query strings, see the new [Query Strings] guide -section and the updated [`route` attribute] documentation. - -[`FromFormValue`]: @api-v0.4/rocket/request/trait.FromFormValue.html -[`FromQuery`]: @api-v0.4/rocket/request/trait.FromQuery.html -[`route` attribute]: @api-v0.4/rocket_codegen/attr.get.html -[Query Strings]: @guide-v0.4/requests/#query-strings -[#608]: https://github.com/rwf2/Rocket/issues/608 - -### Stateful Handlers - -The type of a handler has been generalized in 0.4 to any type that implements -the new [`Handler`] trait. Among other things, this allows handlers to refer to -internal state during request handling. - -The new [`StaticFiles`] `contrib` type uses this functionality to provide -easier-than-ever static file serving. For example, to make local files from a -`/static` directory accessible at `/public`, you need simply write: - - -```rust -fn main() { - rocket::ignite() - .mount("/public", StaticFiles::from("/static")) - .launch(); -} -``` - -We encourage users to explore the new `Handler` API and contribute libraries -with pluggable handlers! For more details, see the [`Handler`] documentation. - -[`Handler`]: @api-v0.4/rocket/trait.Handler.html -[`StaticFiles`]: @api-v0.4/rocket_contrib/serve/struct.StaticFiles.html - -### Responder Derive - -In Rocket 0.4, the [`Responder`] trait can be derived for `enum`s and `struct`s -with named fields. This greatly simplifies returning multiple types of responses -from a single handler. - -To illustrate, consider a route that returns either a `Json` structure for -401 (unauthorized) errors or a `NamedFile` with a dynamic Content-Type for 404 -(not found) errors. To accomplish this previously, `Result` values could be -arbitrarily nested, an unappealing and semantically incorrect approach. -Alternatively, an `enum` could be declared with the appropriate variants, and -`Responder` could be manually implemented for the `enum`.

All users are -encouraged to migrate their applications to 0.4. - -## General Improvements - -In addition to new features, Rocket saw the following improvements: - - * Log messages now refer to routes by name. - * Collision errors on launch name the colliding routes. - * Launch fairing failures refer to the failing fairing by name. - * The default `403` catcher now references authorization, not authentication. - * Private cookies are set to `HttpOnly` and are given an expiration date of 1 - week by default. - * A [Tera templates example] was added. - * All macros, derives, and attributes are individually documented in - [`rocket_codegen`]. - * Invalid client requests receive a response of `400` instead of `500`. - * Response bodies are reliably stripped on `HEAD` requests. - * Added a default catcher for `504: Gateway Timeout`. - * Configuration information is logged in all environments. - * Use of `unsafe` was reduced from 9 to 2 in core library. - * [`FormItems`] now parses empty keys and values as well as keys without - values. - * Added [`Config::active()`] as a shorthand for - `Config::new(Environment::active()?)`. - * Address/port binding errors at launch are detected and explicitly emitted. - * [`Flash`] cookies are cleared only after they are inspected. - * `Sync` bound on [`AdHoc::on_attach()`], [`AdHoc::on_launch()`] was removed. - * [`AdHoc::on_attach()`], [`AdHoc::on_launch()`] accept an `FnOnce`. - * Added [`Config::root_relative()`] for retrieving paths relative to the - configuration file. - * Added [`Config::tls_enabled()`] for determining whether TLS is actively - enabled. - * ASCII color codes are not emitted on versions of Windows that do not support - them. - * Added FLAC (`audio/flac`), Icon (`image/x-icon`), WEBA (`audio/webm`), TIFF - (`image/tiff`), AAC (`audio/aac`), Calendar (`text/calendar`), MPEG - (`video/mpeg`), TAR (`application/x-tar`), GZIP (`application/gzip`), MOV - (`video/quicktime`), MP4 (`video/mp4`), ZIP (`application/zip`) as known - media types. - * Added `.weba` (`WEBA`), `.ogv` (`OGG`), `.mp4` (`MP4`), `.mpeg4` (`MP4`), - `.aac` (`AAC`), `.ics` (`Calendar`), `.bin` (`Binary`), `.mpg` (`MPEG`), - `.mpeg` (`MPEG`), `.tar` (`TAR`), `.gz` (`GZIP`), `.tif` (`TIFF`), `.tiff` - (`TIFF`), `.mov` (`MOV`) as known extensions. - * Interaction between route attributes and declarative macros has been - improved. - * Generated code now logs through logging infrastructures as opposed to using - `println!`. - * Routing has been optimized by caching routing metadata. - * [`Form`] and [`LenientForm`] can be publicly constructed. - * Console coloring uses default terminal colors instead of white. - * Console coloring is consistent across all messages. - * `i128` and `u128` now implement [`FromParam`], [`FromFormValue`]. - * The `base64` dependency was updated to `0.10`. - * The `log` dependency was updated to `0.4`. - * The `handlebars` dependency was updated to `1.0`. - * The `tera` dependency was updated to `0.11`. - * The `uuid` dependency was updated to `0.7`. - * The `rustls` dependency was updated to `0.14`. - * The `cookie` dependency was updated to `0.11`. - -[Tera templates example]: @github/examples/tera_templates -[`FormItems`]: @api-v0.4/rocket/request/enum.FormItems.html -[`Config::active()`]: @api-v0.4/rocket/config/struct.Config.html#method.active -[`Flash`]: @api-v0.4/rocket/response/struct.Flash.html -[`AdHoc::on_attach()`]: @api-v0.4/rocket/fairing/struct.AdHoc.html#method.on_attach -[`AdHoc::on_launch()`]: @api-v0.4/rocket/fairing/struct.AdHoc.html#method.on_launch -[`Config::root_relative()`]: @api-v0.4/rocket/struct.Config.html#method.root_relative -[`Config::tls_enabled()`]: @api-v0.4/rocket/struct.Config.html#method.tls_enabled -[`rocket_codegen`]: @api-v0.4/rocket_codegen/index.html -[`FromParam`]: @api-v0.4/rocket/request/trait.FromParam.html -[`FromFormValue`]: @api-v0.4/rocket/request/trait.FromFormValue.html -[`Data`]: @api-v0.4/rocket/struct.Data.html -[`Form`]: https://api.rocket.rs/v0.4/rocket/request/struct.Form.html -[`LenientForm`]: https://api.rocket.rs/v0.4/rocket/request/struct.LenientForm.html - -## What's Next? - -Rocket v0.5 is scheduled to be _at least_ as exciting as 0.4! As always, the -focus continues to be usability, stability, security, and performance. With this -in mind, the roadmap for 0.5 includes: - - 1. **Support for Rust Stable** ([#19]) - - Finally! Rocket 0.5 will compile and run on stable versions of the Rust - compiler. - - 2. **Asynchronous Request Handling** ([#17]) - - In 0.5, Rocket will migrate to the latest asynchronous version of `hyper` and - `futures` with compatibility for `async`/`await` syntax. Of utmost importance - is preserving Rocket's usability. As such, these changes will be largely - internal, with asynchronous I/O peeking over the covers _only_ when - explicitly desired or required. As a side effect, we expect a substantial - performance boost from the migration as well as resolution to long-standing - issues. - - 3. **Multipart Form Support** ([#106]) - - The lack of built-in multipart form support makes handling file uploads and - other submissions much more cumbersome than necessary. Rocket 0.5 will - generalize its existing forms infrastructure to handle multipart forms. - - 4. **Stronger CSRF and XSS Protection** ([#14]) - - Since 0.3, Rocket uses `SameSite: Strict` private cookies to prevent CSRF - attacks. This technique is only tenable in newer browsers. In 0.5, Rocket - will protect against CSRF using more robust techniques. Rocket will also add - support for automatic, browser-based XSS protection. - -[#17]: https://github.com/rwf2/Rocket/issues/17 -[#19]: https://github.com/rwf2/Rocket/issues/19 -[#106]: https://github.com/rwf2/Rocket/issues/106 -[#14]: https://github.com/rwf2/Rocket/issues/14 - -## Rocket v0.4 Contributors - -The following wonderful people helped make Rocket 0.4 happen: - -

It was lauded as _the_ web framework for -Rust. But in the last few years, I'd be remiss to claim the same. New frameworks -have emerged, Rocket's recent development has been nothing short of erratic, and -four years went by without a major release. - -The community rightfully voiced its disappointment and concern.

The community ~~wasn't~~ isn't happy with Rocket. - -And I get it. I failed to adequately lead the project. I failed to communicate -when it mattered most. I couldn't control the life events that pulled me away -from Rocket and most of my responsibilities, but I could have done more to -communicate what was going on. And I certainly could have done _something_ to -make it easy, make it _possible_ for others to push the project forward in my -absense. - -But I did none of that. I couldn't make it happen. And I'm truly, sincerely -sorry. - -## A Better Foundation for Rocket's Future - -I'd like to make it impossible to repeat these mistakes. That's why today I'm -announcing plans for a new independent nonprofit foundation designed to support -and bolster Rocket's development, increase transparency, and diversify project -leadership: [RWF2]. - -> The **R**ocket **W**eb **F**ramework **F**oundation, _RWF2_, is a -> -> 501(c)(3) nonprofit and -> collective that supports the development and community of free and open -> source software, like Rocket, as well as -> education for a more secure web. - -Moving forward, the RWF2 will be responsible for governing Rocket and dictating -its trajectory. The goal is to distribute control of the project and prohibit -one person from being able to stall its development. The RWF2 will also act as a -vehicle for tax-deductible contributions, funds management, and development -grant distribution, all with the aim of increasing high-quality contributions -and educational material. - -In summary, the RWF2 exists to enable: - - * **Diversified Leadership** - - Key responsibilities, such as releases, security, infrastructure, and - community engagement will be distributed to community members under the - umbrella of the foundation. - - * **Tax-Deductible Contributions** - - Because the RWF2 is a 501(c)(3) organization, contributions are - tax-deductible. We particularly hope this encourages corporate sponsorship, - especially from those who depend on Rocket. As a nonprofit, the RWF2 must - transparently manage and disburse all funds. - - * **Development Grants** - - A key use for contributions is the foundation's sponsorship and - administration of µGrants: small (≤ $1k) grants for concrete work on - Rocket or related projects. Compensation is staged upon completion of - predefined milestones and quality requirements. - - * **Increased Transparency** - - Milestones, release schedules, and periodic updates form part of the - foundation's responsibilities. The aim is to keep the community informed on - Rocket's development and plans, making it easier to get and remain involved. - - * **Educational Resource Expansion** - - The RWF2 aims to enhance the accessibility of educational resources, - training, and mentorship for web application security, especially for - traditionally marginalized groups. Our focus lies in delivering - high-quality, practical materials for building secure web applications. - -## What's Happening Now - -There's a lot to do to realize these goals, but the process starts today. Here's -what's being done now: - - 0. **Open Sponsorship** - - Starting now, you can sponsor the RWF2 through [GitHub Sponsors] or - [Open Collective]. Tiers are still a work in progress, but for now, consider - all tiers on Open Collective, and Bronze+ tiers on GitHub, as intended for - corporate sponsors. Note that only contributions made directly via Open - Collective are guaranteed to be tax-deductible. - - A special shout out to `@martynp`, `@nathanielford`, and `@wezm` for - jumping the gun in the best of ways and sponsoring the RWF2 via GitHub - ahead of schedule. Thank you! - - 0. **Team Assembly** - - Initially, RWF2 governance will be exceedingly simple and consist of a - president (hi!) and a handful of team leads. Individuals can - fill multiple positions, though the intent is for every position to be held - by a different individual. Positions are by appointment, either by the - presiding team lead, by the president in their absence, and by other team - leads in the president's absence. - - The initial teams and their responsibilities are listed below. If you're - interested in leading any of the teams (or another team you think should - exist), please reach out via the [Matrix channel] or directly via - [foundation@rwf2.org](mailto:foundation@rwf2.org). - - - *Maintenance* - - Reviews issues, pull requests, and discussions, and acts on them as - necessary. This largely means triaging issues, closing resolved or - duplicate issues and discussions, closing or merging stale or approved - pull requests, respectively, and pinging the appropriate individuals to - prevent issues or PRs from becoming stale. - - - *Release* - - Publishes code and documentation releases. This includes partitioning - commits according to scope and impact on breakage, writing and updating - CHANGELOGs, and testing and publishing new releases and their - documentation. - - - *Knowledge* - - Creates, maintains and improves materials that help others learn about - Rocket or web security. This includes documentation like API docs and the - Rocket guide, code such as examples and tutorials, and materials for live - or in-person education. - - - *Community* - - Keeps the community adjourned on happenings. This involves writing - periodic project updates as well as digesting and communicating - development milestones and schedules to a broad audience. - - - *Infrastructure* - - Maintains infrastructure including: building, testing, and release - scripts, static site generation, CI and other automated processes, and - domain registrar and cloud computing services. - - 0. **Transfer of Assets** - - The majority of Rocket's assets, including its domain, website, source - code, and associated infrastructure, are managed under personal accounts. - All assets are being transferred to foundation-owned accounts, and access - will be given to the appropriate teams. The [migration project on GitHub] - is tracking the progress of asset migration. - - 0. **Process Documentation** - - Some of Rocket's core processes, including releases and site building, are - generally inaccessible to others. These will be documented, and access will - be granted to the appropriate teams. - - 0. **Open Planning & Development** - - While Rocket's development has generally been done in the open through - GitHub issues, PRs, and projects, little has been done to publicize those - efforts. Furthermore, _planning_ has largely been a closed process. Moving - forward, planning will be done in the open, and the community team will be - engaged to publicize development efforts and progress. - -[GitHub Sponsors]: https://github.com/sponsors/rwf2 -[Open Collective]: https://opencollective.com/rwf2 -[Matrix channel]: https://chat.mozilla.org/#/room/#rocket:mozilla.org -[migration project on GitHub]: https://github.com/orgs/rwf2/projects/1 - -## What's Coming Soon - - * **µGrants** - - The µGrant specification is a work-in-progress.

You can now compile and build -Rocket applications with `rustc` from the stable release channel and remove all -`#![feature(..)]` crate attributes. The complete canonical example with a single -`hello` route becomes: - -```rust -#[macro_use] extern crate rocket; - -#[get("//")] -fn hello(name: &str, age: u8) -> String { - format!("Hello, {} year old named {}!", age, name) -} - -#[launch] -fn rocket() -> _ { - rocket::build().mount("/hello", routes![hello]) -} -``` - -

- -Note the new [`launch`] attribute, which simplifies starting an `async` runtime -for Rocket applications. See the [migration guide] for more on transitioning to -a stable toolchain. - -[`launch`]: @api-v0.5/rocket/attr.launch.html - -### 📥 Async I/O since `rc.1` - -Rocket's core request handling was rebuilt in v0.5 to take advantage of the -latest `async` networking facilities in Rust. Backed by `tokio`, Rocket -automatically multiplexes request handling across `async` tasks on all of the -available cores on the machine. As a result, route handlers can now be declared -`async` and make use of `await` syntax: - -```rust -use rocket::tokio; -use rocket::data::{Data, ToByteUnit}; - -#[post("/debug", data = "")] -async fn debug(data: Data<'_>) -> std::io::Result<()> { - // Stream at most 512KiB all of the body data to stdout. - data.open(512.kibibytes()) - .stream_to(tokio::io::stdout()) - .await?; - - Ok(()) -} -``` - -See the [Blocking I/O](@guide-v0.5/upgrading#blocking-io) section of the upgrading -guide for complete details on the `async` I/O transition. - -### 💂 Sentinels since `rc.1` - -Rocket v0.5 introduces [sentinels]. Entirely unique to Rocket, sentinels offer -an automatic last line of defense against runtime errors by enabling any type -that appears in a route to abort application launch under invalid conditions. -For example, the [`&State`] guard in v0.5 is a [`Sentinel`] that aborts -launch if the type `T` is not in managed state, thus preventing associated -runtime errors. - -[`Sentinel`]s can be implemented outside of Rocket, too, and you should seek to -do so whenever possible. For instance, the [`Template`] type from -[`rocket_dyn_templates`] is a sentinel that ensures templates are properly -registered. As another example, consider a `MyResponder` that expects: - - * A specific type `T` to be in managed state. - * An catcher to be registered for the `400` status code. - -Making `MyResponder` a sentinel that guards against these conditions is as -simple as: - -```rust -use rocket::{Rocket, Ignite, Sentinel}; -# struct MyResponder; -# struct T; - -impl Sentinel for MyResponder { - fn abort(r: &Rocket) -> bool { - r.state::().is_none() || !r.catchers().any(|c| c.code == Some(400)) - } -} -``` - -[sentinels]: @api-v0.5/rocket/trait.Sentinel.html -[`Sentinel`]: @api-v0.5/rocket/trait.Sentinel.html -[`&State`]: @api-v0.5/rocket/struct.State.html -[`Template`]: @api-v0.5/rocket_dyn_templates/struct.Template.html -[`rocket_dyn_templates`]: @api-v0.5/rocket_dyn_templates/index.html - -### ☄️ Streams and SSE since `rc.1` - -Powered by the new asynchronous core, Rocket v0.5 introduces real-time, typed -`async` [streams]. The new [async streams] section of the guide contains further -details, and we encourage all interested parties to see the new real-time, -multi-room [chat example]. - -As a taste of what's possible, the following `stream` route emits a `"pong"` -Server-Sent Event every `n` seconds, defaulting to `1`: - -```rust -# use rocket::*; -use rocket::tokio::time::{interval, Duration}; -use rocket::response::stream::{Event, EventStream};; - -#[get("/ping?")] -fn stream(n: Option) -> EventStream![] { - EventStream! { - let mut timer = interval(Duration::from_secs(n.unwrap_or(1))); - loop { - yield Event::data("pong"); - timer.tick().await; - } - } -} -``` - -[streams]: @api-v0.5/rocket/response/stream/index.html -[async streams]: @guide-v0.5/responses/#async-streams -[chat example]: @example/chat - -### 🔌 WebSockets since `rc.4` - -Rocket v0.5 introduces support for HTTP connection upgrades via a new [upgrade -API]. The API allows responders to assume control of raw I/O with the client in -an existing HTTP connection, thus allowing HTTP connections to be _upgraded_ to -any protocol, including WebSockets! - -The newly introduced [`rocket_ws`] library takes advantage of the new API to -implement first-class support for WebSockets entirely outside of Rocket's core. -Working with `rocket_ws` to implement an echo server looks like this: - -```rust -# use rocket::get; -use rocket_ws::{WebSocket, Stream}; - -#[get("/echo")] -fn echo_compose(ws: WebSocket) -> Stream!['static] { - ws.stream(|io| io) -} -``` - -Just like the newly introduced `async` streams, `rocket_ws` also supports using -generator syntax for WebSocket messages: - -```rust -# use rocket::get; -use rocket_ws::{WebSocket, Stream}; - -#[get("/echo")] -fn echo_stream(ws: WebSocket) -> Stream!['static] { - Stream! { ws => - for await message in ws { - yield message?; - } - } -} -``` - -For complete usage details, see the [`rocket_ws`] documentation. - -[upgrade API]: @api-v0.5/rocket/response/struct.Response.html#upgrading -[`rocket_ws`]: @api-v0.5/rocket_ws - -### 📝 Comprehensive Forms since `rc.1` - -Rocket v0.5 entirely revamps [forms] with support for [multipart uploads], -[arbitrary collections] with [arbitrary nesting], [ad-hoc validation], and an -improved [`FromForm` derive], obviating the need for nearly all custom -implementations of `FromForm` or `FromFormField`. Rocket's new wire protocol for -forms allows applications to express _any structure_ with _any level of nesting -and collection_ without any custom code, eclipsing what's offered by other web -frameworks. - -As an illustrative example, consider the following structures: - -```rust -use rocket::form::FromForm; - -#[derive(FromForm)] -struct MyForm<'r> { - owner: Person<'r>, - pet: Pet<'r>, -} - -#[derive(FromForm)] -struct Person<'r> { - name: &'r str -} - -#[derive(FromForm)] -struct Pet<'r> { - name: &'r str, - #[field(validate = eq(true))] - good_pet: bool, -} -``` - -To parse request data into a `MyForm`, a form with fields of `owner.name`, -`pet.name`, and `pet.good_pet` must be submitted. The ad-hoc validation on -`good_pet` validates that `good_pet` parses as `true`. Such a form, URL-encoded, -may look like: - -```rust,ignore -"owner.name=Bob&pet.name=Sally&pet.good_pet=yes" -``` - -Rocket's derived `FromForm` implementation for `MyForm` will automatically parse -such a submission into the correct value: - -```rust,ignore -MyForm { - owner: Person { - name: "Bob".into() - }, - pet: Pet { - name: "Sally".into(), - good_pet: true, - } -} -# }; -``` - -The rewritten [forms guide] provides complete details on revamped forms support. - -[forms guide]: @guide-v0.5/requests/#forms -[ad-hoc validation]: @guide-v0.5/requests#ad-hoc-validation -[arbitrary nesting]: @guide-v0.5/requests#nesting -[multipart uploads]: @guide-v0.5/requests#multipart -[forms]: @guide-v0.5/requests#forms -[`FromFormField`]: @api-v0.5/rocket/form/trait.FromFormField.html -[arbitrary collections]: @guide-v0.5/requests#collections -[`FromForm` derive]: @api-v0.5/rocket/derive.FromForm.html - -### 🚀 And so much more! - -Rocket v0.5 introduces over **40** new features and major improvements! We -encourage everyone to review the [CHANGELOG] to learn about them all. Here are a -few more we don't want you to miss: - - * An automatically enabled [`Shield`]: security and privacy headers for all responses. - * [Graceful shutdown] with configurable grace periods, [notification], and [shutdown fairings]. - * An entirely new, flexible and robust [configuration system] based on [Figment]. - * Type-system enforced [incoming data limits] to mitigate memory-based DoS attacks. - * Support for [mutual TLS] and client [`Certificate`]s. - * Asynchronous database pooling support via [`rocket_db_pools`]. - * Compile-time URI literals via a fully revamped [`uri!`] macro. - -[`Shield`]: @api-v0.5/rocket/shield/struct.Shield.html -[graceful shutdown]: @api-v0.5/rocket/config/struct.Shutdown.html#summary -[notification]: @api-v0.5/rocket/struct.Shutdown.html -[shutdown fairings]: @api-v0.5/rocket/fairing/trait.Fairing.html#shutdown -[configuration system]: @guide-v0.5/configuration/#configuration -[Figment]: https://docs.rs/figment/ -[incoming data limits]: @guide-v0.5/requests/#streaming -[mutual TLS]: @guide-v0.5/configuration/#mutual-tls -[`uri!`]: @api-v0.5/rocket/macro.uri.html -[`rocket_db_pools`]: @api-v0.5/rocket_db_pools/index.html -[`Certificate`]: @api-v0.5/rocket/mtls/struct.Certificate.html -[migration guide]: @guide-v0.5/upgrading - -## What's Next? - -We think Rocket provides the most productive and confidence-inspiring web -development experience in Rust today, but as always, there's room for -improvement. To that end, here's what's on the docket for the next major -release: - - 0. **Migration to RWF2** - - Discussed further in the [RWF2 prelaunch announcement], Rocket will - transition to being managed by the newly formed Rocket Web Framework - Foundation: _RWF2_. The net effect is increased development transparency, - including public roadmaps and periodic updates, financial support for - high-quality contributions, and codified pathways into the project's - governance. - - 0. **Pluggable Connection Listeners** - - Rocket currently expects and enjoins connection origination via - TCP/IP. While sufficient for the common case, it excludes other desirable - interfaces such as Unix Domain Sockets (UDS). - - In the next major release, Rocket will expose [an interface for implementing - and plugging-in custom connection listeners]. Rocket itself will make use - of this interface to expose more common mediums out-of-the-box, such as the - aforementioned UDS. - - 0. **Native `async` Traits** - - Given the [stabilization of `async fn` in traits], the next major release - will seek to eliminate Rocket's dependence on `#[async_trait]` opting instead - for native `async` traits. This will greatly improve our documentation, which - currently calls out the attribute for each affected trait, as well as offer - modest performance improvements. - - 0. [**Typed Catchers**](https://github.com/rwf2/Rocket/issues/749) - - Today's catchers cannot receive strictly typed error data. This results - in workarounds where error data is queried for well-typedness at runtime. - While it _has_ been possible to implement a form of typed error catching - prior, doing so necessitated limiting error data to `'static` values, as - other Rust web frameworks do, a concession we're unwilling to make. - - After much experimentation, we have an approach that is ergonomic to use, - safe, and correct, all without the `'static` limitation. This will allow error - catchers to "pattern match" against error types at compile-time. At runtime, - Rocket will match emerging error types against the declared catchers and - call the appropriate catcher with the fully-typed value. - - 0. **Short-Circuitable Request Processing** - - Whether with success or failure, fairings and guards cannot presently - terminate request processing early. The rationale for forbidding this - functionality was that it would allow third-party crates and plugins to - dictate responses without offering any recourse to the top-level application. - - With the advent of typed catchers, however, we now have a mechanism by which - a top-level application can intercept early responses via their type, - resolving the prior concern. As such, in the next major release, fairings and - guards will be able to respond to requests early, and catchers will be able to - intercept those early responses at will. - - 0. **Associated Resources** - - Often a set of routes will share a set requirements. For example, they - may share a URI prefix, subset of guards, and some managed state. In today's - Rocket, these common requirements must be repeatedly specified for each route. - While this is by design (we _want_ a route's requirements to be obvious), the - repetition is arduous and potentially error prone. - - In an upcoming major release, Rocket will introduce new mechanisms by which - a set of routes can share an explicitly declared set of requirements. Their - _explicit_ and _declarative_ nature results in requirements that are - simultaneously obvious _and_ declared once. - - We're really excited about this upcoming change and will be announcing more - in the near future. - - 0. **Performance Improvements** - - Rocket appears to lag behind other Rust web frameworks in benchmarks. This is - partly due to [poor benchmarking], partly due to security-minded design - decisions, and partially due to unexploited opportunities. In the next - release, we'll be addressing the latter points. Specifically: - - - _Explore making work stealing optional._ - - Rocket currently defaults to using tokio's multithreaded, work-stealing - scheduler. This avoids tail latency issues when faced with irregular and - heterogeneous tasks at the expense of throughput due to higher bookkeeping costs - associated with work stealing. Other Rust web frameworks instead opt to use - tokio's single-threaded scheduler, which while theoretically suboptimal, - may yield better performance results in practice, especially when - benchmarking homogeneous workloads. - - While we believe work-stealing schedulers are the right choice for the - majority of applications desireing robust performance characteristics, we also - believe the choice should be the user's. We'll seek to make this choice - easier in the next release. - - - _Reduce conversions from external to internal HTTP types._ - - Rocket revalidates and sometimes copies incoming HTTP request data. - In Rocket v0.5, we began transitioning to a model where we revalidate - security insensitive data in debug mode only, allowing for bugs to be - caught and reported while reducing performance impacts in production. In - the next release, we seek to extend this approach. - -[an interface for implementing and plugging-in custom connection listeners]: -https://github.com/rwf2/Rocket/issues/1070#issuecomment-1491101952 -[stabilization of `async fn` in traits]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/115822 -[poor benchmarking]: @guide-v0.5/faq/#performance - - - -## ❤️ Thank You - -A very special thank you to [Jeb Rosen], Rocket's maintainer from v0.4 to -v0.5-rc.1, without whom Rocket v0.5 wouldn't exist. Jeb is responsible for -leading the migration to `async` and Rust stable along with tireless efforts to -improve Rocket's documentation and address the community. Rocket is better for -having had Jeb along for the ride. Thank you, Jeb. - -[Jeb Rosen]: https://github.com/rwf2/Rocket/commits?author=jebrosen - -A special thank you to all of Rocket's users, especially those who diligently -waded through all four release candidates, raised issues, and participated on -[GitHub] and the [Matrix channel]. You all are an awesome, kind, and thoughtful -bunch. Thank you. - -A heartfelt _thank you_ as well to _all_ **148** who contributed to Rocket v0.5: - -
