tower-web 0.3.7

/// Hello world service.
///
/// A simple service that demonstrates how to get started with `tower-web`.
///
/// ## Overview
///
/// `tower-web` lets you define a web service using "plain old Rust types"
/// (PORT). The idea is to decouple all HTTP concepts from the business logic.
/// This is achieved by using macros that inspect the handler functions on your
/// PORT and generate a [Tower `Service`][service] implementation.
///
/// `tower-web` removes most of the boiler plate from implementing web apps by
/// embracing convention over configuration.
///
/// [service]: https://github.com/tower-rs/tower
///
/// ## Service and Resources
///
/// First, some quick terminology.
///
/// A "service" is a type that receives and responds to HTTP requests. A "route"
/// is a specific mapping from an HTTP request to a function handler. A
/// "resource" is a bundle of routes. A "service" is one or more resources.
///
/// For example, a single service might have the following resources:
///
/// * User
/// * Article
/// * Comment
///
/// Each one of those resources would have multiple routes, including, but not
/// limited to:
///
/// * User::list
/// * User::create
/// * User::update
/// * Article::show
/// * Comment::delete
///
/// ## Usage
///
/// Run the example:
///
///     cargo run --example hello_world
///
/// Then send a request:
///
///     curl -v http://localhost:8080/

/// `impl_web!` macro. This macro does not modify any of its contents. It will
/// inspect the implementation and, with the help of some annotations, generate
/// the necessary glue code to run the web service.
///
/// impl_web! is a temporary solution to enable tower-web to work with stable
/// rust. In the near future, this will be transitioned to use attribute macros.

        // Functions must take `&self` and return `T: IntoFuture`. Since
