Looking for a simple example of a Rust server-side proxy with CORS included? Look no further!
This project is built on Actix-web and includes actix-cors with placeholder variables to get you up and running ASAP.
It even removes the typical hassle of OpenSSL (in)compatibility by solely focusing on Rustls!
A main focus was cross-compatibility, but this boilerplate was initially built to run on the free, private cloud hosting service, https://deta.space
Because of this, includes a Spacefile config to easily launch this on Space.
With the Space CLI installed, clone this repository and type space new.
There are two included domains listed within the CORS policy as placeholders.
Be sure to update them at the bottom of the main.rs file with your specific ports, ngrok addresses, or domains.
There are three included endpoints:
- GET request
- GET request w/ query parameters
- POST request w/ expected data
Assuming the project is running locally, visit:
http://localhost:8080/hello
This will respond with a hello world message.
Assuming the project is running locally, visit:
http://localhost:8080/query?content=blahblahblah
The url expects the parameter content and will include the value with the result.
Assuming the project is running locally, visit:
http://localhost:8080/capture
This will expect a key called email, the value can be anything.
A successful response will echo what was sent.
