Quentin-Piot/axum-diesel-real-world

This system is a Rust-based backend service built on the Axum framework, designed to manage a 'posts' resource. It provides a RESTful API for creating, retrieving, and listing posts, with support for filtering and pagination. The architecture follows a layered approach, separating domain models, database interactions via Diesel, and HTTP handlers, all configured through environment variables.

The application now exposes endpoints to create, fetch, and list posts. The create\_post handler accepts a title and body to insert a new post, get\_post retrieves a single post by ID, and list\_posts returns a paginated or filtered list of all posts. These handlers utilize custom extractors for JSON and path/query parameters, mapping domain models to response structures for the API.

The application now uses a centralized configuration system (src/config.rs) that loads server host/port and database URL from environment variables, replacing hardcoded values. A new error handling module (src/errors.rs) defines an AppError enum with JSON responses for internal server and bad request errors, integrating with Axum's IntoResponse. The main entry point (src/main.rs) initializes tracing, manages a database connection pool, runs migrations, and starts the Axum server using the global config. This structural change supports a more robust and configurable backend.

The application now includes database migration files to initialize the schema. This includes a base migration for the Diesel ORM's internal bookkeeping and helper functions, as well as a specific migration to create the 'posts' table with fields for id, title, body, and published status.

This change establishes the foundational data layer for the application. It defines the PostModel domain struct and its associated error handling, alongside a Diesel-generated database schema for the 'posts' table. It also introduces a PostRepository that implements database interactions (insert, get, get\_all) with support for filtering by published status and title content. Additionally, custom request extractors for JSON and path parameters are added to the utils layer to standardize error handling for request parsing.

The project's Rust dependencies have been updated to newer versions, specifically Axum 0.8.8, Diesel 2.3.6, and Tokio 1.49.0, alongside other supporting crates like chrono and serde. This update aligns the backend with current stable releases, ensuring compatibility with the latest features and security patches in the Rust ecosystem.
