rust-api

An API written in Rust, which I used to learn the language.

Project Structure

The folder structure follows the structure of the URLs, e.g. the route for /hello/world is found in the module src/hello.

Each module contains the following base files:

• mod.rs: defines the modules' content, and contains the route definitions. The route functions themselves only contain the functionality needed to represent the data, not acquire it.
• controller.rs: this file contains the actual logic of each route. If the logic becomes too complicated to be contained inside a single file, controller.rs becomes its own module folder named controller.
• tests.rs: this contains tests for the specific module. This can also be a module directory if need be.

Every module has a routes function that returns its route macros.
