Struct Server

pub struct Server {
    pub hostname: String,
    pub port: u16,
    /* private fields */
}

The “heart” of the module; the server struct

It does everything: process requests, pass them to handlers, reject them if they are malformed

Fields

hostname: String

The hostname the server is listening to for requests

port: u16

The port the server is listening for requests

Implementations

impl Server

pub fn new<S, N>(hostname: S, port: N) -> Self

where S: Into<String>, N: Into<u16>,

Initialize a Server by passing a hostname and a port number

pub fn start(&self, callback: fn())

Start the server and make it process incoming connections

pub fn on<S, H>(&mut self, path: S, handler: H)

where S: Into<String>, H: Fn(Request, Response<'_>) + 'static,

Append a function handler that will be called on any request in a specific path

pub fn on_get<S, H>(&mut self, path: S, handler: H)

where S: Into<String>, H: Fn(Request, Response<'_>) + 'static,

Same as the on() function, but processes only GET requests

pub fn on_head<S, H>(&mut self, path: S, handler: H)

where S: Into<String>, H: Fn(Request, Response<'_>) + 'static,

Same as the on() function, but processes only HEAD requests

pub fn on_post<S, H>(&mut self, path: S, handler: H)

where S: Into<String>, H: Fn(Request, Response<'_>) + 'static,

Same as the on() function, but processes only POST requests

pub fn on_put<S, H>(&mut self, path: S, handler: H)

where S: Into<String>, H: Fn(Request, Response<'_>) + 'static,

Same as the on() function, but processes only PUT requests

pub fn on_delete<S, H>(&mut self, path: S, handler: H)

where S: Into<String>, H: Fn(Request, Response<'_>) + 'static,

Same as the on() function, but processes only DELETE requests

pub fn on_directory<S, H>(&mut self, path: S, handler: H)

where S: Into<String>, H: Fn(Request, Response<'_>) + 'static,

Append a directory handler that will be called on any request in a specific path
