Hi there, this is a toy project to experiment building a simple blog CRUD application with Rust, Axum and MongoDB. This project provides a simple API for adding users and articles, and view/read all the articles as well The goal of this project is completely educational, feel free to use it however you want.

🚨 It's still a work in progress. 🤓 💻

• ✅ Add Article
• ✅ Add User
• ✅ View Articles
• ⏳ Delete Article
• ⏳ Authentication

You need to have docker and docker comopse installed.

• Install docker Official Documentation
• Install docker compose Official Documentation
• After installation, run the following command to start the server and the database containers

  $ docker compose up --build

• Test the server on http://localhost:3000/

You need to have rust and MongoDB installed.

• Run the following command to install Rust:

  curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh

NOTE: If you find the command sketchy, please head to the official website and check for yourself 😏

• Install MongoDB (Community Edition) Official Documentation
• Check that the mongodb server is running locally, for example, on Mac OS run:

  brew services list | grep mongodb

• If the server is in the started status then everything should be fine.

NOTE: Check the docs for linux and windows.

• Head to the project directory and run the web server

  cargo run

curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{
    "title": "Title goes here", \
    "body": "article body goes here" \
}' http://localhost:3000/api/article`
