# Convex
The official Rust client for [Convex](https://convex.dev/).
Convex is the backend application platform with everything you need to build
your product.
This Rust client can write and read data from a Convex backend with queries,
mutations, and actions. Get up and running at
[docs.convex.dev](https://docs.convex.dev/introduction/).

# Installation
Add the following to your `Cargo.toml` file
```toml
[dependencies]
convex = "*"
```
# Example
```rust
let mut client = ConvexClient::new(DEPLOYMENT_URL).await?;
let mut subscription = client.subscribe("getCounter", vec![]).await?;
while let Some(new_val) = subscription.next().await {
println!("Counter updated to {new_val:?}");
}
```
# Documentation
Check out the full convex documentation at
[docs.convex.dev](https://docs.convex.dev/introduction/) The rust API docs are
available on [docs.rs](https://docs.rs/convex/latest/convex/)
# MSRV
The Convex rust client works on stable rust 1.71.1 and higher. It also works on
nightly.
# Debug Logging
The Convex Rust Client uses the
[tracing](https://docs.rs/tracing/latest/tracing/) crate for logging. One common
way of initializing is via `tracing_subscriber`. Then, you can see debug logging
by running your program with `RUST_LOG=convex=debug`.
```rust
tracing_subscriber::fmt()
.with_env_filter(tracing_subscriber::EnvFilter::from_default_env())
.init();
```
By default, this will emit all logs, including internal logs from the client.
Logs from your Convex backend will show up under the `convex_logs` target at
Level=DEBUG. If you want to isolate just those logs, please refer to the
[tracing_subscriber documentation](https://docs.rs/tracing-subscriber/latest/tracing_subscriber/layer/index.html#filtering-with-layers).
