Installation

[dependencies]
carbone-sdk-rust = "1.0.0"

Quickstart

Try the following code to render a report in 10 seconds. Just insert your API key, the template ID you want to render, and the JSON data-set as string. Get your API key on your Carbone account: https://account.carbone.io/.

use std::env;
 
use carbone_sdk_rust::config::Config;
use carbone_sdk_rust::carbone::Carbone;
use carbone_sdk_rust::types::{ApiJsonToken, JsonData};
use carbone_sdk_rust::template::TemplateId;
 
use carbone_sdk_rust::errors::CarboneError;

use std::fs::File;
use std::io::Write

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), CarboneError> {
    
    let token = "Token";

    let config: Config = Default::default();
 
    let api_token = ApiJsonToken::new(token.to_string())?;

    let json_data_value = String::from(r#"
        {
            "data" : {
                "firstname" : "John",
                "lastname" : "Wick"
            },
            "convertTo" : "odt"
        }
    "#);
 
    let json_data = JsonData::new(json_data_value)?;

    let template_id = TemplateId::new("YourTemplateId".to_string())?;

    let carbone = Carbone::new(&config, Some(&api_token))?;
    
    let report_content = match carbone.generate_report_with_template_id(template_id, json_data).await {
        Ok(v) => v,
        Err(e) => panic!("{}", e.to_string())
    };

    let mut output_file = File::create("report.pdf").expect("Failed to create file");

    if let Err(e) = output_file.write_all(&report_content) {
        eprintln!("Failed to write to file: {:?}", e);
    }

    Ok(())
}

Rust SDK API

Carbone SDK Constructor

Definition

let config: Config;

Example

Example of a new SDK instance for Carbone Cloud: Get your API key on your Carbone account: https://account.carbone.io/.

// For Carbone Cloud, provide your API Access Token as first argument:
let token = "Token";
let config: Config = Default::default();
let api_token = ApiJsonToken::new(token.to_string())?;
let carbone = Carbone::new(&config, Some(&api_token))?;

Example of a new SDK instance for Carbone On-premise or Carbone On-AWS:

// Define the URL of your Carbone On-premise Server or AWS EC2 URL:
let config: Config = Config::new("ON_PREMISE_URL".to_string(), "api_time_out_in_sec_in_u64", ApiVersion::new("4".to_string()).expect("REASON")).expect("REASON");
let carbone = Carbone::new(&config, None)?;

Constructor to create a new instance of CarboneSDK. The access token can be pass as an argument or by the environment variable "CARBONE_TOKEN". Get your API key on your Carbone account: https://account.carbone.io/. To set a new environment variable, use the command:

$ export CARBONE_TOKEN=your-secret-token

Check if it is set by running:

$ printenv | grep "CARBONE_TOKEN"

Generate and Download Document

Generate a document from a local template file:

pub async fn generate_report( &self, template_name: String, template_data: Vec<u8>, json_data: JsonData, payload: Option<&str>, salt: Option<&str>);

Arguments details:

template_name: filename of the template.
template_data: The content of the file in Vec<u8>.
json_data: A stringified JSON containing the data to populate the template.

Example

let file_name = "name_file.extention";
let file_path = format!("your/path/{}", file_name);
let file_content = fs::read(file_path)?;

let json_data_value = String::from(r#"
        {
            "data" : {
                "firstname" : "John",
                "lastname" : "Wick"
            },
            "convertTo" : "odt"
        }
    "#);

let json_data = JsonData::new(json_data_value)?;

let content = match carbone.generate_report(file_name.to_string(), file_content, json_data, None, None).await {
        Ok(v) => v,
        Err(e) => panic!("{}", e.to_string())
    };

Or, Generate a document from a template ID:

pub async fn pub async fn generate_report_with_template_id( &self, template_id: TemplateId, json_data: JsonData);

Argument details:

template_id: Template ID (Manage your templates on Carbone Studio)
json_data: A stringified JSON containing the data to populate the template.

let template_id = TemplateId::new("template_id".to_string())?;
let json_data = String::from(r#"
        {
            "data" : {
                "firstname" : "John",
                "lastname" : "Wick"
            },
            "convertTo" : "odt"
        }
    "#);

let json_data = JsonData::new(json_data_value)?;

let content = match carbone.generate_report_with_template_id( template_id, filte_content, json_data).await {
        Ok(v) => v,
        Err(e) => panic!("{}", e.to_string())
    };

Add Template

pub async fn upload_template(&self,file_name: &str,file_content: Vec<u8>,salt: Option<&str>);

Add a template as file-content Vec<u8> and the function return the template ID as String.

Example


let template_name = "template.odt".to_string();
let template_path = format!("src/{}", template_name);
let template_data = fs::read(template_path.to_owned())?;

let template_id = match carbone.upload_template(template_name, template_data, None).await {
        Ok(v) => v,
        Err(e) => panic!("{}", e.to_string())
    };

Delete Template

pub async fn delete_template(&self, template_id: TemplateId);

Delete a template by providing a template ID as template_id, and it returns whether the request succeeded as a Boolean.

Example

let template_id = TemplateId::new("template_id".to_string())?;

let boolean = match carbone.delete_template(template_id).await {
        Ok(v) => v,
        Err(e) => panic!("{}", e.to_string())
    };

Generate Document Only

The generate_report function takes a template ID as String, and the JSON data-set as JsonData. It return a renderId, you can pass this renderId at get_report for download the document.

pub async fn render_data( &self, template_id: TemplateId, json_data: JsonData);

Example


let template_id = TemplateId::new("template_id".to_string())?;

let json_data = String::from(r#"
        {
            "data" : {
                "firstname" : "John",
                "lastname" : "Wick"
            },
            "convertTo" : "odt"
        }
    "#);

let json_data = JsonData::new(json_data_value)?;

let render_id = match carbone.render_data(template_id, json_data).await {
        Ok(v) => v,
        Err(e) => panic!("{}", e.to_string())
    };

Download Document Only

Definition

pub async fn get_report(&self, render_id: &RenderId);

Example


let render_id = RenderId::new("render_id".to_string())?;

let content = match carbone.get_report(&render_id).await {
        Ok(v) => v,
        Err(e) => panic!("{}", e.to_string())
    };

Get Template

Definition

pub async fn download_template(&self, template_id: &TemplateId);

Provide a template ID as String and it returns the file as Bytes.

Example

let template_id = TemplateId::new("template_id".to_string())?;

let content = match carbone.download_template(&template_id).await {
        Ok(v) => v,
        Err(e) => panic!("{}", e.to_string())
    };

Get API Status

Definition


pub async fn get_status(&self);

The function requests the Carbone API to get the current status and version as String.

Example

let status = match carbone.get_status().await {
        Ok(v) => v,
        Err(e) => panic!("{}", e.to_string())
    };

Set API Config

Definition

pub fn new(api_url: String, api_timeout: u64, api_version: ApiVersion)

Set the API URL for Carbone On-premise or Carbone On-AWS.

Specify the version of the Carbone CLoud API you want to request as second argument of the constructor. By default, all requested are made to the Carbone API version 4.

Example

let config: Config = Config::new("ON_PREMISE_URL".to_string(), "api_time_out_in_sec_in_u64", ApiVersion::new("Version".to_string()).expect("REASON")).expect("REASON");

let carbone = Carbone::new(&config, None)?;

Build commands

At the root of the SDK repository run:

cargo build

In another Rust project, you can load the local build of the SDK, in the Cargo.toml:


carbone-sdk-rust = {path = "your/local/path"}

Finally, compile your Rust project with the SDK:

cargo run

Test commands

Execute unit tests:

cargo test

Execute unit tests with coverage:

cargo tarpaulin

👤 History

The package was originaly made by Pascal Chenevas, and open-sourced the code. The Carbone.io team is now maintaining the SDK and will bring all futur evolutions.
