dynamic-config-server 0.6.1

//! Reading configuration *from* a config server.
//!
//! The other half of this crate, behind the `client` feature: a
//! [`RemoteSource`] that fetches `GET /{application}/{profile}` and hands the
//! document to the engine, exactly as an etcd or a Vault source does. The two
//! halves live in one crate so that they are tested against each other —
//! every test in `tests/client.rs` drives this against the real router rather
//! than against a fixture of what the router is believed to return.
//!
//! ```no_run
//! use std::time::Duration;
//! use dynamic_config_server::client::ConfigServer;
//!
//! # fn main() -> Result<(), dynamic_config::Error> {
//! let source = ConfigServer::new("https://config.internal", "billing", "prod")
//!     .with_token(std::env::var("CONFIG_TOKEN").unwrap_or_default())
//!     .with_timeout(Duration::from_secs(5));
//! # let _ = source;
//! # Ok(())
//! # }
//! ```
//!
//! ## What it does not do
//!
//! **It does not subscribe.** `GET /{application}/{profile}/stream` carries a
//! generation, and a client that follows it calls
//! `refresh_remote()` when the number
//! moves — a loop of a dozen lines that belongs to whoever owns the reload
//! cadence. Building it in would mean this crate owning a task, a backoff and
//! a reconnect policy that the application is better placed to choose; what
//! this crate owes is the half that is fiddly to get right, which is the
//! bounded, deadline-covered, credential-carrying fetch below.
//!
//! **It does not verify provenance.** The document arrives as JSON with no
//! signature, so a client trusts the server exactly as far as TLS and the
//! bearer token take it. A deployment that needs more should read from the
//! store the server reads from.
