Trait gotham::handler::Handler
[−]
[src]
pub trait Handler: Send { fn handle(self, state: State, request: Request) -> Box<HandlerFuture>; }
A Handler receives some subset of requests to the application, and returns a future which
resolves to a response. This represents the common entry point for the parts of a Gotham
application, implemented by Router and Pipeline.
The Handler is created by its NewHandler implementation, and is used for a single request.
A Handler is basically an asynchronous function. To anybody familiar with tokio's
documentation, this explanation will sound familiar as it's exactly the description of a tokio
Service
Required Methods
fn handle(self, state: State, request: Request) -> Box<HandlerFuture>
