Learn Rust by Building Real Applications

This is the walkthrough of this Udemy course + a couple of post-course exercises (refer to Devoir section).

Runbook

To run this server:

1. Make sure that you have Rust installed (using rustup is probably best)

2. Run this command from the root of the project

     PUBLIC_PATH=$(pwd)/public cargo run

3. Open up your favorite browser and hit enter for this address http://127.0.0.1:8080/

Devoir

• Fix a bug where local css file's contents are read into the response header
• Look at parts of the code to make them more FP palletable
• Add HttpHeaders to both HttpRequest and HttpResponse
• Use Tokio library + native async/ to convert the single core server into an async multithreaded server

Running tests with output

To see some println or eprintln outputs in your test simply append --show-output to your command, e.g.:

cargo test --test parallel_requests -- --show-output
