simple static file server written in Rust based on axum framework
I'm learning Rust and axum.
My thought is simple.
axum has a static-file-server example, which only serve static files under a directory and does not list the directory index.
it also has a templates example which uses askama as template engine to parse a Jinja2 like template.
I thought I could simply combine the code of the two and my job is done -_-
But things didn't go in the way I thought
long time ago, I used to start a static http server like this (using the python3 built-in http server) :
python3 -m http.server -d .since I'm learning Rust, and I found an interesting web framework that is Axum, I want to use Axum to implement a simple static server mainly for studying purposes.
the python one support some command line flags:
❯ python3 -m http.server -h usage: server.py [-h] [--cgi] [--bind ADDRESS] [--directory DIRECTORY] [port] positional arguments: port Specify alternate port [default: 8000] optional arguments: -h, --help show this help message and exit --cgi Run as CGI Server --bind ADDRESS, -b ADDRESS Specify alternate bind address [default: all interfaces] --directory DIRECTORY, -d DIRECTORY Specify alternative directory [default:current directory]
so does this one:
❯ static-server -h static-server 0.4.2 A simple static file server written in Rust based on axum framework. USAGE: static-server [OPTIONS] FLAGS: -h, --help Prints help information -V, --version Prints version information OPTIONS: -a, --addr <addr> set the listen addr [default: 127.0.0.1] -l, --log <log-level> set the log level [default: debug] -p, --port <port> set the listen port [default: 3000] -r, --root <root-dir> set the root directory [default: .]
