// Copyright 2020 Oxide Computer Company /*! * Dropshot is a general-purpose crate for exposing REST APIs from a Rust * program. Planned highlights include: * * * Suitability for production use on a largely untrusted network. * Dropshot-based systems should be high-performing, reliable, debuggable, and * secure against basic denial of service attacks (intentional or otherwise). * * * First-class OpenAPI support, in the form of precise OpenAPI specs generated * directly from code. This works because the functions that serve HTTP * resources consume arguments and return values of specific types from which * a schema can be statically generated. * * * Ease of integrating into a diverse team. An important use case for * Dropshot consumers is to have a team of engineers where individuals might * add a few endpoints at a time to a complex server, and it should be * relatively easy to do this. Part of this means an emphasis on the * principle of least surprise: like Rust itself, we may choose abstractions * that require more time to learn up front in order to make it harder to * accidentally build systems that will not perform, will crash in corner * cases, etc. * * By "REST API", we primarily mean an API built atop existing HTTP primitives, * organized into hierarchical resources, and providing consistent, idempotent * mechanisms to create, update, list, and delete those resources. "REST" can * mean a range of things depending on who you talk to, and some people are * dogmatic about what is or isn't RESTy. We find such dogma not only * unhelpful, but poorly defined. (Consider such a simple case as trying to * update a resource in a REST API. Popular APIs sometimes use `PUT`, `PATCH`, * or `POST` for the verb; and JSON Merge Patch or JSON Patch as the format. * (sometimes without even knowing it!). There's hardly a clear standard, yet * this is a really basic operation for any REST API.) * * For a discussion of alternative crates considered, see Oxide RFD 10. * * We hope Dropshot will be fairly general-purpose, but it's primarily intended * to address the needs of the Oxide control plane. * * * ## Usage * * The bare minimum might look like this: * * ```no_run * use dropshot::ApiDescription; * use dropshot::ConfigDropshot; * use dropshot::ConfigLogging; * use dropshot::ConfigLoggingLevel; * use dropshot::HttpServer; * use std::sync::Arc; * * #[tokio::main] * async fn main() -> Result<(), String> { * // Set up a logger. * let log = * ConfigLogging::StderrTerminal { * level: ConfigLoggingLevel::Info, * } * .to_logger("minimal-example") * .map_err(|e| e.to_string())?; * * // Describe the API. * let mut api = ApiDescription::new(); * // Register API functions -- see detailed example or ApiDescription docs. * * // Start the server. * let mut server = * HttpServer::new( * &ConfigDropshot { * bind_address: "127.0.0.1:0".parse().unwrap(), * }, * api, * Arc::new(()), * &log, * ) * .map_err(|error| format!("failed to start server: {}", error))?; * * let server_task = server.run(); * server.wait_for_shutdown(server_task).await * } * ``` * * This server returns a 404 for all resources because no API functions were * registered. See `examples/basic.rs` for a simple, documented example that * provides a few resources using shared state. * * For a given `ApiDescription`, you can also print out an OpenAPI spec * describing the API. See [`ApiDescription::print_openapi`]. * * * ## API Handler Functions * * HTTP talks about **resources**. For a REST API, we often talk about * **endpoints** or **operations**, which are identified by a combination of the * HTTP method and the URI path * * Example endpoints for a resource called a "project" might include: * * * `GET /projects` (list projects) * * `POST /projects` (one way to create a project) * * `GET /projects/my_project` (fetch one project) * * `PUT /projects/my_project` (update (or possibly create) a project) * * `DELETE /projects/my_project` (delete a project) * * With Dropshot, an incoming request for a given API endpoint is handled by a * particular Rust function. That function is called an **entrypoint**, an * **endpoint handler**, or a **handler function**. When you set up a Dropshot * server, you configure the set of available API endpoints and which functions * will handle each one by setting up an [`ApiDescription`]. * * The most convenient way to define an endpoint with a handler function uses * the `endpoint!` macro. Here's an example of a single endpoint that lists * three hardcoded projects: * * ``` * use dropshot::endpoint; * use dropshot::ApiDescription; * use dropshot::HttpError; * use dropshot::HttpResponseOkObjectList; * use dropshot::RequestContext; * use http::Method; * use schemars::JsonSchema; * use serde::Serialize; * use std::sync::Arc; * * /** Represents a project in our API */ * #[derive(Serialize, JsonSchema)] * struct Project { * /** name of the project */ * name: String, * } * * /** Fetch the list of projects. */ * #[endpoint { * method = GET, * path = "/projects", * }] * async fn myapi_projects_get( * rqctx: Arc<RequestContext>, * ) -> Result<HttpResponseOkObjectList<Project>, HttpError> * { * let projects = vec![ * Project { name: String::from("project1") }, * Project { name: String::from("project2") }, * Project { name: String::from("project3") }, * ]; * Ok(HttpResponseOkObjectList(projects)) * } * * fn main() { * let mut api = ApiDescription::new(); * * /* * * Register our endpoint and its handler function. The "endpoint" macro * * specifies the HTTP method and URI path that identify the endpoint, * * allowing this metadata to live right alongside the handler function. * */ * api.register(myapi_projects_get).unwrap(); * * /* ... (use `api` to set up an `HttpServer` ) */ * } * * ``` * * There's quite a lot going on here: * * * The `endpoint` macro specifies the HTTP method and URI path. When we * invoke `ApiDescription::register()`, this information is used to register * the endpoint that will be handled by our function. * * The signature of our function indicates that on success, it returns a * `HttpResponseOkObjectList<Project>`. This means that the function will * return an HTTP 200 status code ("OK") with a list of objects, each being an * instance of `Project`. * * The function itself has a Rustdoc comment that will be used to document * this _endpoint_ in the OpenAPI schema. * * From this information, Dropshot can generate an OpenAPI specification for * this API that describes the endpoint (which OpenAPI calls an "operation"), * its documentation, the possible responses that it can return, and the schema * for each type of response (which can also include documentation). This is * largely known statically, though generated at runtime. * * * ### Function arguments * * In general, a handler function looks like this: * * ```ignore * async fn f( * rqctx: Arc<RequestContext>, * [query_params: Query<Q>,] * [path_params: Path<P>,] * [body_param: Json<J>,] * ) -> Result< SomeResponseType , HttpError> * ``` * * Other than the RequestContext, parameters may appear in any order. The types * `Query`, `Path`, and `Json` are called **Extractors** because they cause * information to be pulled out of the request and made available to the handler * function. * * * [`Query`]`<Q>` extracts parameters from a query string, deserializing them * into an instance of type `Q`. `Q` must implement `serde::Deserialize` and * `dropshot::ExtractedParameter`. * * [`Path`]`<P>` extracts parameters from HTTP path, deserializing them into * an instance of type `P`. `P` must implement `serde::Deserialize` and * `dropshot::ExtractedParameter`. * * [`Json`]`<J>` extracts content from the request body by parsing the body as * JSON and deserializing it into an instance of type `J`. `J` must implement * `serde::Deserialize` and `schemars::JsonSchema`. * * If the handler takes a `Query<Q>`, `Path<P>`, or a `Json<J>` and the * corresponding extraction cannot be completed, the request fails with status * code 400 and an error message reflecting a validation error. * * As with any serde-deserializable type, you can make fields optional by having * the corresponding property of the type be an `Option`. Here's an example of * an endpoint that takes two arguments via query parameters: "limit", a * required u32, and "marker", an optional string: * * ``` * use http::StatusCode; * use dropshot::ExtractedParameter; * use dropshot::HttpError; * use dropshot::Json; * use dropshot::Query; * use dropshot::RequestContext; * use hyper::Body; * use hyper::Response; * use std::sync::Arc; * * #[derive(serde::Deserialize, ExtractedParameter)] * struct MyQueryArgs { * limit: u32, * marker: Option<String> * } * * async fn myapi_projects_get( * _: Arc<RequestContext>, * query: Query<MyQueryArgs>) * -> Result<Response<Body>, HttpError> * { * let query_args = query.into_inner(); * let limit: u32 = query_args.limit; * let marker: Option<String> = query_args.marker; * Ok(Response::builder() * .status(StatusCode::OK) * .body(format!("limit = {}, marker = {:?}\n", limit, marker).into())?) * } * ``` * * ### Endpoint function return types * * Endpoint handler functions are async, so they always return a `Future`. When * we say "return type" below, we use that as shorthand for the output of the * future. * * An endpoint function must return a type that implements `HttpResponse`. * Typically this should be a type that implements `HttpTypedResponse` (either * one of the Dropshot-provided ones or one of your own creation). In * situations where the response schema is not fixed, the endpoint should * return `Response<Body`>, which also implements `HttpResponse`. * * The more specific a type returned by the handler function, the more can be * validated at build-time, and the more specific an OpenAPI schema can be * generated from the source code. For example, a POST to an endpoint * "/projects" might return `Result<HttpResponseCreated<Project>, HttpError>`. * As you might expect, on success, this turns into an HTTP 201 "Created" * response whose body is constructed by serializing the `Project`. In this * example, OpenAPI tooling can identify at build time that this function * produces a 201 "Created" response on success with a body whose schema matches * `Project` (which we already said implements `Serialize`), and there would be * no way to violate this contract at runtime. If the function just returned * `Response<Body>`, it would be harder to tell what it actually produces (for * generating the OpenAPI spec), and no way to validate that it really does * that. */ mod api_description; mod config; mod error; mod handler; mod http_util; mod logging; mod router; mod server; pub mod test_util; #[macro_use] extern crate slog; pub use api_description::ApiDescription; pub use api_description::ApiEndpoint; pub use api_description::ApiEndpointParameter; pub use api_description::ApiEndpointParameterLocation; pub use api_description::ApiEndpointResponse; pub use config::ConfigDropshot; pub use error::HttpError; pub use error::HttpErrorResponseBody; pub use handler::ExtractedParameter; pub use handler::Extractor; pub use handler::HttpResponse; pub use handler::HttpResponseAccepted; pub use handler::HttpResponseCreated; pub use handler::HttpResponseDeleted; pub use handler::HttpResponseOkObject; pub use handler::HttpResponseOkObjectList; pub use handler::HttpResponseUpdatedNoContent; pub use handler::Json; pub use handler::Path; pub use handler::Query; pub use handler::RequestContext; pub use http_util::CONTENT_TYPE_JSON; pub use http_util::CONTENT_TYPE_NDJSON; pub use http_util::HEADER_REQUEST_ID; pub use logging::ConfigLogging; pub use logging::ConfigLoggingIfExists; pub use logging::ConfigLoggingLevel; pub use server::HttpServer; /* * Users of the `endpoint` macro need `http::Method` available. */ pub use http::Method; extern crate dropshot_endpoint; pub use dropshot_endpoint::endpoint; pub use dropshot_endpoint::ExtractedParameter;
