A library to create HTTP response content for APIs based on
[RFC7807](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7807).
## Usage
Get the latest version for your `Cargo.toml` from
[crates.io](https://crates.io/crates/http-api-problem).
## Serde
`HttpApiProblem` implements `Serialize` and `Deserialize`.
## Examples
```rust
use http_api_problem::*;
let p = HttpApiProblem::with_title_and_type_from_status(HttpStatusCode::NotFound)
.set_detail("detailed explanation")
.set_instance("/on/1234/do/something");
assert_eq!(Some("https://httpstatuses.com/404".to_string()), p.type_url);
assert_eq!(Some(HttpStatusCode::NotFound), p.status);
assert_eq!("Not Found".to_string(), p.title);
assert_eq!(Some("detailed explanation".to_string()), p.detail);
assert_eq!(Some("/on/1234/do/something".to_string()), p.instance);
```
There is also `From<u16>` implemented for `HttpStatusCode`:
```rust
use http_api_problem::*;
let p = HttpApiProblem::with_title_and_type_from_status(428)
.set_detail("detailed explanation")
.set_instance("/on/1234/do/something");
assert_eq!(Some("https://httpstatuses.com/428".to_string()), p.type_url);
assert_eq!(Some(HttpStatusCode::PreconditionRequired), p.status);
assert_eq!("Precondition Required".to_string(), p.title);
assert_eq!(Some("detailed explanation".to_string()), p.detail);
assert_eq!(Some("/on/1234/do/something".to_string()), p.instance);
```
## Features
### Web Frameworks
There are multiple features to integrate with web frameworks:
* `with-warp`
* `with-hyper`
* `with-actix-web`
These mainly convert the `HttpApiProblem` to response types of
the frameworks and implement traits to integrate with the frameworks
error handling
### ApiError
The feature `with-api-error` enables a structure which can be
return from "api handlers" that generate responses and can be
converted into an `HttpApiProblem`.
