0.2.3 (26. August, 2021)
- **fixed:** Fix accidental breaking change introduced by internal refactor.
`BoxRoute` used to be `Sync` but was accidental made `!Sync` ([#273](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/273))
Boxing a service normally means using `tower::util::BoxService`. That
doesn't implement `Clone` however so normally I had been combining it
with `Buffer` to get that.
But recently I discovered https://github.com/dtolnay/dyn-clone which
makes it possible to clone trait objects. So this adds a new internal
utility called `CloneBoxService` which replaces the previous
`BoxService` + `Buffer` combo in `BoxRoute`.
I'll investigate upstreaming that to tower. I think it makes sense there
since box + clone is quite a common need.
- 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:** All usage of `tower::BoxError` has been replaced with `axum::BoxError` ([#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))
I just had a thought: Why should `response::Headers` be generic, but
`body::StreamBody` should not? `StreamBody` previously boxed the stream
to erase the generics. So we had `response::Headers<T>` but
`body::StreamBody`, without generics.
After thinking about it I think it actually makes sense for responses to
remain generic because you're able to use `impl IntoResponse` so you
don't have to name the generics.
Whereas in the case of `BodyStream` (an extractor) you cannot use `impl Trait`
so it makes sense to box the inner body to make the type easier to name. Besides,
`BodyStream` is mostly useful when the request body isn't `hyper::Body`, as
that already implements `Stream`.
This adds `StreamBody` which converts a `Stream` of `Bytes` into a `http_body::Body`.
---
As suggested by Kestrer on Discord it would make sense for axum to provide different kinds of body types other than `Empty`, `Full`, and `hyper::Body`. There is also some talk about [splitting up `hyper::Body`](https://github.com/hyperium/hyper/issues/2345) so this can be seen as getting started on that effort. axum's body types could be moved to hyper or http-body if thats the direction we decide on.
The types I'm thinking about adding are:
- `StreamBody`- added in this PR
- `AsyncReadBody` - similar to [http-body#41](https://github.com/hyperium/http-body/pull/41/files)
- `ChannelBody` - similar to `hyper::Body::channel`
I think `BodyStream` is more useful without being generic over the
request body.
I'm also looking into adding a response body from a stream called
`StreamBody` which will work pretty much opposite to this.
I haven't been able to find a proper solution for #89 so for now I think
we should document the issue and move on with shipping 0.2.

This removes a small foot gun from the routing.
This means matching different HTTP methods for the same route that
aren't defined together now works.
So `Router::new().route("/", get(...)).route("/", post(...))` now
accepts both `GET` and `POST`. Previously only `POST` would be accepted.
This improves compiles further when using lots of nested routes. Such as
the example posted
[here](https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/issues/200#issuecomment-902541073).
It seems rustc is really slow at checking bounds on these kinds of
intermediate builder methods. Should probably file an issue about that.
This way there is now only one way to create a router:
```rust
use axum::{Router, handler::get};
let app = Router::new()
.route("/foo", get(handler))
.route("/foo", get(handler));
```
`nest` was changed in the same way:
```rust
use axum::Router;
let app = Router::new().nest("/foo", service);
```
It was removed as part of https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/184 but
I do actually think it has some utility. So makes sense to keep even if
axum doesn't use it directly for routing.
* Improve compile times of `handle_error`
This brings the compile time of the example posted [here][example] from
3 seconds down to 0.3 seconds for me.
Having the bounds on the methods does improve UX but not worth
sacrificing 10x compile time for.
[example]: https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/issues/145#issue-963183256
* Improve compile time of `check_infallible`
* update changelog
* Add `Headers`
Example usage:
```rust
use axum::{
route,
routing::RoutingDsl,
response::{IntoResponse, Headers},
handler::get,
};
use http::header::{HeaderName, HeaderValue};
// It works with any `IntoIterator<Item = (Key, Value)>` where `Key` can be
// turned into a `HeaderName` and `Value` can be turned into a `HeaderValue`
//
// Such as `Vec<(HeaderName, HeaderValue)>`
async fn just_headers() -> impl IntoResponse {
Headers(vec![
(HeaderName::from_static("X-Foo"), HeaderValue::from_static("foo")),
])
}
// Or `[(&str, &str)]`
async fn from_strings() -> impl IntoResponse {
Headers([("X-Foo", "foo")])
}
```

* Make work on Rust versions without `IntoIterator` for arrays
* format
* changelog
They'd previously see the nested URI as we mutated the request. Now we
always route based on the nested URI (if present) without mutating the
request. Also meant we could get rid of `OriginalUri` which is nice.
Previously, on `main`, this wouldn't compile:
```rust
let app = route("/", get(handler))
.layer(
ServiceBuilder::new()
.timeout(Duration::from_secs(10))
.into_inner(),
)
.handle_error(...)
.route(...); // <-- doesn't work
```
That is because `handle_error` would be
`axum::service::ServiceExt::handle_error` which returns `HandleError<_,
_, _, HandleErrorFromService>` which does _not_ implement `RoutingDsl`.
So you couldn't call `route`. This was caused by
https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/120.
Basically `handle_error` when called on a `RoutingDsl`, the resulting
service should also implement `RoutingDsl`, but if called on another
random service it should _not_ implement `RoutingDsl`.
I don't think thats possible by having `handle_error` on `ServiceExt`
which is implemented for any service, since all axum routers are also
services by design.
This resolves the issue by removing `ServiceExt` and moving its methods
to `RoutingDsl`. Then we have more tight control over what has a
`handle_error` method.
`service::OnMethod` now also has a `handle_error` so you can still
handle errors from random services, by doing
`service::any(svc).handle_error(...)`.
Adds associated `Body` and `BodyError` types to `IntoResponse`. This is required for returning responses with bodies other than `hyper::Body` from handlers. That wasn't previously possible.
This is a breaking change so should be shipped in 0.2.
With this you'll be able to do:
```rust
let one = route("/foo", get(|| async { "foo" }))
.route("/bar", get(|| async { "bar" }));
let two = route("/baz", get(|| async { "baz" }));
let app = one.or(two);
```
Fixes https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/issues/101
As described in
https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/108#issuecomment-892811637, a
`HandleError` created from `axum::ServiceExt::handle_error` should _not_
implement `RoutingDsl` as that leads to confusing routing behavior.
The technique used here of adding another type parameter to
`HandleError` isn't very clean, I think. But the alternative is
duplicating `HandleError` and having two versions, which I think is less
desirable.
These types were moved around in
https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/130 but re-export from their old
location for backwards compatibility.
This removes the re-exports.
https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/pull/129 was a breaking change, in part
because I had to remove the `Copy` impl from `OnMethod`.
For the sake of future proofing I think we should remove other `Copy`
impls from services as well. We can always bring them back once things
have matured more.
These types no longer implement `Copy`:
- `EmptyRouter`
- `ExtractorMiddleware`
- `ExtractorMiddlewareLayer`
