Abe is a small project that I started doing my blog. I use my skeleton-api as a base and build the rest on it. The point of this project is to learn, and I'm sharing it because I thought one more resource in Rust wouldn't hurt. So, it's not a mature or bug-free product, but I use it and it does the trick.
The backend is in Rust and uses Actix to serve the API and the blog with templates. The Dashboard (responsible for creating / updating / deleting / publishing articles) is a Svelte app with a web assembly module that uses Yew for the editor. Because why not. It's an admin dashboard, right now I don't care if it's not clean (or if it's a mess), but I'll rewrite it someday.
To compile we need a valid Rust environnement : https://rustup.rs/, tthe diesel_cli : http://diesel.rs/guides/getting-started/. We also need an postgresql database, a .env containing informations such as the name of your platform, various paths, and info about the API (see example.env). For admin dashboard we need Svelte (so npm install etc) and for the Yew module we need to install wasm-pack : https://rustwasm.github.io/wasm-pack/installer/
cargo build --bin api --releasecargo build --bin artisan --releasecd dashboard
build.shdiesel setupdiesel migration runcargo run --bin api --releasecargo run --bin artisan --releaseTo show usage of artisan, just run :
./target/release/artisan -hWe need to add at least an admin to the DB, to be able to use the dashboard. Use the artisan to do that (-a is a flag that mean admin):
./target/release/artisan create-user -a --email [email protected] --password 123456Now just go to the dashboard : http://127.0.0.1:8080/dashboard/admin_restricted
