# Unreleased

- Overall:
  - **fixed:** All known compile time issues are resolved, including those with
    `boxed` and those introduced by Rust 1.56 ([#404])
  - **breaking:** The router's type is now always `Router` regardless of how many routes or
    middleware are applied ([#404])

    This means router types are all always nameable:

    ```rust
    fn my_routes() -> Router {
        Router::new().route(
            "/users",
            post(|| async { "Hello, World!" }),
        )
    }
    ```
  - **breaking:** Added feature flags for HTTP1 and JSON. This enables removing a
    few dependencies if your app only uses HTTP2 or doesn't use JSON. Its only a
    breaking change if you depend on axum with `default_features = false`. ([#286])
  - **breaking:** `Route::boxed` and `BoxRoute` have been removed as they're no longer
    necessary ([#404])
  - **breaking:** `Nested`, `Or` types are now private. They no longer had to be
    public because `Router` is internally boxed ([#404])
  - **breaking:** Remove `routing::Layered` as it didn't actually do anything and
    thus wasn't necessary
  - **breaking:** Vendor `AddExtensionLayer` and `AddExtension` to reduce public
    dependencies
  - **breaking:** `body::BoxBody` is now a type alias for
    `http_body::combinators::UnsyncBoxBody` and thus is no longer `Sync`. This
    is because bodies are streams and requiring streams to be `Sync` is
    unnecessary.
  - **added:** Implement `IntoResponse` for `http_body::combinators::UnsyncBoxBody`.
  - **added:** Add `Handler::into_make_service` for serving a handler without a
    `Router`.
  - **added:** Add `Handler::into_make_service_with_connect_info` for serving a
    handler without a `Router`, and storing info about the incoming connection.
  - **breaking:** axum's minimum support rust version is not 1.54
- Routing:
  - Big internal refactoring of routing leading to several improvements ([#363])
    - **added:** Wildcard routes like `.route("/api/users/*rest", service)` are now supported.
    - **fixed:** The order routes are added in no longer matters.
    - **fixed:** Adding a conflicting route will now cause a panic instead of silently making
      a route unreachable.
    - **fixed:** Route matching is faster as number of routes increase.
  - **fixed:** Correctly handle trailing slashes in routes:
    - If a route with a trailing slash exists and a request without a trailing
      slash is received, axum will send a 301 redirection to the route with the
      trailing slash.
    - Or vice versa if a route without a trailing slash exists and a request
      with a trailing slash is received.
    - This can be overridden by explicitly defining two routes: One with and one
      without trailing a slash.
  - **breaking:** Method routing for handlers have been moved from `axum::handler`
    to `axum::routing`. So `axum::handler::get` now lives at `axum::routing::get`
    ([#405])
  - **breaking:** Method routing for services have been moved from `axum::service`
    to `axum::routing`. So `axum::service::get` now lives at, etc.
    `axum::routing::service_method_routing::get`, etc. ([#405])
  - **breaking:** `Router::or` renamed to `Router::merge` and will now panic on
    overlapping routes. It now only accepts `Router`s and not general `Service`s.
    Use `Router::fallback` for adding fallback routes ([#408])
  - **added:** `Router::fallback` for adding handlers for request that didn't
    match any routes. `Router::fallback` must be use instead of `nest("/", _)` ([#408])
  - **breaking:** `EmptyRouter` has been renamed to `MethodNotAllowed` as its only
    used in method routers and not in path routers (`Router`)
  - **breaking:** Remove support for routing based on the `CONNECT` method. An
    example of combining axum with and HTTP proxy can be found [here][proxy] ([#428])
- Extractors:
  - **fixed:** Expand accepted content types for JSON requests ([#378])
  - **fixed:** Support deserializing `i128` and `u128` in `extract::Path`
  - **breaking:** Automatically do percent decoding in `extract::Path`
    ([#272])
  - **breaking:** Change `Connected::connect_info` to return `Self` and remove
    the associated type `ConnectInfo` ([#396])
  - **added:** Add `extract::MatchedPath` for accessing path in router that
    matched the request ([#412])
- Error handling:
  - **breaking:** Simplify error handling model ([#402]):
    - All services part of the router are now required to be infallible.
    - Error handling utilities have been moved to an `error_handling` module.
    - `Router::check_infallible` has been removed since routers are always
      infallible with the error handling changes.
    - Error handling closures must now handle all errors and thus always return
      something that implements `IntoResponse`.

    With these changes handling errors from fallible middleware is done like so:

    ```rust,no_run
    use axum::{
        routing::get,
        http::StatusCode,
        error_handling::HandleErrorLayer,
        response::IntoResponse,
        Router, BoxError,
    };
    use tower::ServiceBuilder;
    use std::time::Duration;

    let middleware_stack = ServiceBuilder::new()
        // Handle errors from middleware
        //
        // This middleware most be added above any fallible
        // ones if you're using `ServiceBuilder`, due to how ordering works
        .layer(HandleErrorLayer::new(handle_error))
        // Return an error after 30 seconds
        .timeout(Duration::from_secs(30));

    let app = Router::new()
        .route("/", get(|| async { /* ... */ }))
        .layer(middleware_stack);

    fn handle_error(_error: BoxError) -> impl IntoResponse {
        StatusCode::REQUEST_TIMEOUT
    }
    ```

    And handling errors from fallible leaf services is done like so:

    ```rust
    use axum::{
        Router, service,
        body::Body,
        routing::service_method_routing::get,
        response::IntoResponse,
        http::{Request, Response},
        error_handling::HandleErrorExt, // for `.handle_error`
    };
    use std::{io, convert::Infallible};
    use tower::service_fn;

    let app = Router::new()
        .route(
            "/",
            get(service_fn(|_req: Request<Body>| async {
                let contents = tokio::fs::read_to_string("some_file").await?;
                Ok::<_, io::Error>(Response::new(Body::from(contents)))
            }))
            .handle_error(handle_io_error),
        );

    fn handle_io_error(error: io::Error) -> impl IntoResponse {
        // ...
    }
    ```
- Misc:
  - `InvalidWebsocketVersionHeader` has been renamed to `InvalidWebSocketVersionHeader` ([#416])
  - `WebsocketKeyHeaderMissing` has been renamed to `WebSocketKeyHeaderMissing` ([#416])

  `BoxRoute` used to be `Sync` but was accidental made `!Sync` ([#273](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/273))

# 0.2.2 (26. August, 2021)

# 0.2.0 (23. August, 2021)

- Overall:
  - **fixed:** Overall compile time improvements. If you're having issues with compile time
    please file an issue! ([#184](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/184)) ([#198](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/198)) ([#220](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/220))
  - **changed:** Remove `prelude`. Explicit imports are now required ([#195](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/195))
- Routing:
  - **added:** Add dedicated `Router` to replace the `RoutingDsl` trait ([#214](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/214))
  - **added:** Add `Router::or` for combining routes ([#108](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/108))
  - **fixed:** Support matching different HTTP methods for the same route that aren't defined
    together. So `Router::new().route("/", get(...)).route("/", post(...))` now
    accepts both `GET` and `POST`. Previously only `POST` would be accepted ([#224](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/224))
  - **fixed:** `get` routes will now also be called for `HEAD` requests but will always have
    the response body removed ([#129](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/129))
  - **changed:** Replace `axum::route(...)` with `axum::Router::new().route(...)`. This means
    there is now only one way to create a new router. Same goes for
    `axum::routing::nest`. ([#215](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/215))
  - **changed:** Implement `routing::MethodFilter` via [`bitflags`](https://crates.io/crates/bitflags) ([#158](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/158))
  - **changed:** Move `handle_error` from `ServiceExt` to `service::OnMethod` ([#160](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/160))

  With these changes this app using 0.1:

  ```rust
  use axum::{extract::Extension, prelude::*, routing::BoxRoute, AddExtensionLayer};

  let app = route("/", get(|| async { "hi" }))
      .nest("/api", api_routes())
      .layer(AddExtensionLayer::new(state));

  fn api_routes() -> BoxRoute<Body> {
      route(
          "/users",
          post(|Extension(state): Extension<State>| async { "hi from nested" }),
      )
      .boxed()
  }
  ```

  Becomes this in 0.2:

  ```rust
  use axum::{
      extract::Extension,
      handler::{get, post},
      routing::BoxRoute,
      Router,
  };

  let app = Router::new()
      .route("/", get(|| async { "hi" }))
      .nest("/api", api_routes());

  fn api_routes() -> Router<BoxRoute> {
      Router::new()
          .route(
              "/users",
              post(|Extension(state): Extension<State>| async { "hi from nested" }),
          )
          .boxed()
  }
  ```
- Extractors:
  - **added:** Make `FromRequest` default to being generic over `body::Body` ([#146](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/146))
  - **added:** Implement `std::error::Error` for all rejections ([#153](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/153))
  - **added:** Add `OriginalUri` for extracting original request URI in nested services ([#197](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/197))
  - **added:** Implement `FromRequest` for `http::Extensions` ([#169](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/169))
  - **added:** Make `RequestParts::{new, try_into_request}` public so extractors can be used outside axum ([#194](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/194))
  - **added:** Implement `FromRequest` for `axum::body::Body` ([#241](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/241))
  - **changed:** Removed `extract::UrlParams` and `extract::UrlParamsMap`. Use `extract::Path` instead ([#154](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/154))
  - **changed:** `extractor_middleware` now requires `RequestBody: Default` ([#167](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/167))
  - **changed:** Convert `RequestAlreadyExtracted` to an enum with each possible error variant ([#167](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/167))
  - **changed:** `extract::BodyStream` is no longer generic over the request body ([#234](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/234))
  - **changed:** `extract::Body` has been renamed to `extract::RawBody` to avoid conflicting with `body::Body` ([#233](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/233))
  - **changed:** `RequestParts` changes ([#153](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/153))
      - `method` new returns an `&http::Method`
      - `method_mut` new returns an `&mut http::Method`
      - `take_method` has been removed
      - `uri` new returns an `&http::Uri`
      - `uri_mut` new returns an `&mut http::Uri`
      - `take_uri` has been removed
  - **changed:** Remove several rejection types that were no longer used ([#153](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/153)) ([#154](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/154))
- Responses:
  - **added:** Add `Headers` for easily customizing headers on a response ([#193](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/193))
  - **added:** Add `Redirect` response ([#192](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/192))
  - **added:** Add `body::StreamBody` for easily responding with a stream of byte chunks ([#237](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/237))
  - **changed:** Add associated `Body` and `BodyError` types to `IntoResponse`. This is
    required for returning responses with bodies other than `hyper::Body` from
    handlers. See the docs for advice on how to implement `IntoResponse` ([#86](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/86))
  - **changed:** `tower::util::Either` no longer implements `IntoResponse` ([#229](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/229))

  This `IntoResponse` from 0.1:
  ```rust
  use axum::{http::Response, prelude::*, response::IntoResponse};

  struct MyResponse;

  impl IntoResponse for MyResponse {
      fn into_response(self) -> Response<Body> {
          Response::new(Body::empty())
      }
  }
  ```

  Becomes this in 0.2:
  ```rust
  use axum::{body::Body, http::Response, response::IntoResponse};

  struct MyResponse;

  impl IntoResponse for MyResponse {
      type Body = Body;
      type BodyError = <Self::Body as axum::body::HttpBody>::Error;

      fn into_response(self) -> Response<Self::Body> {
          Response::new(Body::empty())
      }
  }
  ```
- SSE:
  - **added:** Add `response::sse::Sse`. This implements SSE using a response rather than a service ([#98](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/98))
  - **changed:** Remove `axum::sse`. Its been replaced by `axum::response::sse` ([#98](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/98))

  Handler using SSE in 0.1:
  ```rust
  use axum::{
      prelude::*,
      sse::{sse, Event},
  };
  use std::convert::Infallible;

  let app = route(
      "/",
      sse(|| async {
          let stream = futures::stream::iter(vec![Ok::<_, Infallible>(
              Event::default().data("hi there!"),
          )]);
          Ok::<_, Infallible>(stream)
      }),
  );
  ```

  Becomes this in 0.2:

  ```rust
  use axum::{
      handler::get,
      response::sse::{Event, Sse},
      Router,
  };
  use std::convert::Infallible;

  let app = Router::new().route(
      "/",
      get(|| async {
          let stream = futures::stream::iter(vec![Ok::<_, Infallible>(
              Event::default().data("hi there!"),
          )]);
          Sse::new(stream)
      }),
  );
  ```
- WebSockets:
  - **changed:** Change WebSocket API to use an extractor plus a response ([#121](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/121))
  - **changed:** Make WebSocket `Message` an enum ([#116](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/116))
  - **changed:** `WebSocket` now uses `Error` as its error type ([#150](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/150))

  Handler using WebSockets in 0.1:

  ```rust
  use axum::{
      prelude::*,
      ws::{ws, WebSocket},
  };

  let app = route(
      "/",
      ws(|socket: WebSocket| async move {
          // do stuff with socket
      }),
  );
  ```

  Becomes this in 0.2:

  ```rust
  use axum::{
      extract::ws::{WebSocket, WebSocketUpgrade},
      handler::get,
      Router,
  };

  let app = Router::new().route(
      "/",
      get(|ws: WebSocketUpgrade| async move {
          ws.on_upgrade(|socket: WebSocket| async move {
              // do stuff with socket
          })
      }),
  );
  ```
- Misc
  - **added:** Add default feature `tower-log` which exposes `tower`'s `log` feature. ([#218](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/218))
  - **changed:** Replace `body::BoxStdError` with `axum::Error`, which supports downcasting ([#150](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/150))
  - **changed:** `EmptyRouter` now requires the response body to implement `Send + Sync + 'static'` ([#108](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/108))
  - **changed:** `Router::check_infallible` now returns a `CheckInfallible` service. This
    is to improve compile times ([#198](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/198))
  - **changed:** `Router::into_make_service` now returns `routing::IntoMakeService` rather than
    `tower::make::Shared` ([#229](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/229))

  - **changed:** Several response future types have been moved into dedicated
    `future` modules ([#133](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/133))
  - **changed:** `EmptyRouter`, `ExtractorMiddleware`, `ExtractorMiddlewareLayer`,
    and `QueryStringMissing` no longer implement `Copy` ([#132](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/132))
  - **changed:** `service::OnMethod`, `handler::OnMethod`, and `routing::Nested` have new response future types ([#157](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/157))
