# PulseHTTP
Async HTTP/1.1 framework for Rust, built on [Tokio](https://tokio.rs) from raw TCP sockets
[](https://crates.io/crates/pulse_http)
[](https://docs.rs/pulse_http)
## Install
```toml
[dependencies]
pulse_http = "0.1"
tokio = { version = "1", features = ["full"] }
```
## Quick start
```rust
use pulse_http::{Request, Response, Router, Server};
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
let router = Router::new()
.get("/health", |_req: Request| async { Response::ok("ok") })
.get("/hello/:name", |req: Request| async move {
let name = req
.params
.get("name")
.cloned()
.unwrap_or_else(|| "world".into());
Response::ok(format!("hello {name}"))
});
Server::bind("127.0.0.1:3000".into())
.await
.router(router)
.serve()
.await;
}
```
Ctrl+C triggers graceful shutdown (stop accept → drain connections → grace abort).
## Features (v0.1)
- Tokio TCP listener, task-per-connection, admission semaphore
- HTTP/1.1 keep-alive, `Content-Length` bodies, read timeouts
- Trie router (static + `:param`), query params
- Async middleware (request id, logging, CORS, security headers, panic catch)
- JSON + `application/x-www-form-urlencoded`
- Typed app `State`
- Per-route token-bucket rate limits
- Configurable max connections, max body size, read timeout
- Graceful shutdown
## Examples
From this repo:
```bash
# routing, JSON, forms — no database
cargo run -p hello_world
# per-route rate limiting (429 after burst)
cargo run -p rate_limit
# typed State + Postgres (sqlx)
docker compose -f examples/docker-compose.yml up -d
cargo run -p sqlx_postgres
```
| `hello_world` | 3000 | Basics |
| `sqlx_postgres` | 3001 | `State` + DB |
| `rate_limit` | 3002 | Route limits |
## Builder knobs
```rust
Server::bind("127.0.0.1:3000".into())
.await
.max_connects(256)
.max_body_size(5 * 1024 * 1024)
.read_timeout_sec(60)
.router(router)
.serve()
.await;
```
## Not in v0.1 (later)
Chunked transfer encoding, multipart uploads, streaming responses, write timeouts, fuzz tests, benchmarks.
