NOTE: This is a fork; the original [tokio-postgres-rustls](https://github.com/jbg/tokio-postgres-rustls) repo appears to be unmaintained and has known bugs with virtually no test coverage or CI pipeline.
## Improvements over original [`tokio-postgres-rustls`](https://github.com/jbg/tokio-postgres-rustls):
- Removed unsafe code (thanks @conradludgate)
- Fixes SCRAM/SASL channel binding
- Add support for `aws-lc-rs` instead of `ring` (defaults to `aws-lc-rs`; consistent with `rustls` defaults)
- Added comprehensive integration test suite that runs with both `ring` and `aws-lc-rs`
This is an integration between the [rustls TLS stack](https://github.com/ctz/rustls)
and the [tokio-postgres asynchronous PostgreSQL client library](https://github.com/sfackler/rust-postgres).
[API Documentation](https://docs.rs/tokio-postgres-rustls-improved/)
## Use this crate directly:
With `aws-lc-rs` (default for `rustls`):
```sh
cargo add tokio-postgres-rustls-improved
```
With `ring`:
```sh
cargo add tokio-postgres-rustls-improved --no-default-features --features ring
```
### Have a 3rd-party dependency that relies on the original `tokio-postgres-rustls`?
Patch in our fork that maintains the original crate name like this:
```toml
[patch.crates-io]
tokio-postgres-rustls = { git = "https://github.com/khorsolutions/tokio-postgres-rustls.git", tag = "0.15.0" }
```
Please note that backports to this repo are not currently automated, so using `tokio-postgres-rustls-improved` is preferred when possible.
## Example
See `tests/integration.rs` for actual usage examples, including SASL/SCRAM using Channel Binding.
```rust
// Setup a `rustls::ClientConfig` (see Rustls docs for more info)
let tls_config = rustls::ClientConfig::builder()
.with_root_certificates(certs.roots)
.with_client_auth_cert(certs.client_certs, certs.client_key)
.expect("build rustls client config");
// MakeRustlsConnect is provided by this library; it wraps a `rustls::CLientConfig`
let tls = MakeRustlsConnect::new(tls_config);
// Connect as usual with `tokio-postgres`, providing our `MakeRustlsConnect` as the `tls` arg
let mut pg_config = Config::new();
pg_config
.host("localhost")
.port(pg.port)
.dbname("postgres")
.user("ssl_user")
.ssl_mode(SslMode::Require);
let (client, conn) = pg_config.connect(tls).await.expect("connect");
```
NOTE: please use proper error handling in production code, this is an excerpt from tests that are expected to panic in a failure
