# Restate Rust SDK
[Restate](https://restate.dev/) is a system for easily building resilient applications using _distributed durable async/await_. This repository contains the Restate SDK for writing services using Rust.

## Using the SDK
Add Restate and Tokio as dependencies:
```toml
[dependencies]
restate-sdk = "0.1"
tokio = { version = "1", features = ["full"] }
```
Then you're ready to develop your Restate service using Rust:
```rust
use restate_sdk::prelude::*;
#[restate_sdk::service]
trait Greeter {
async fn greet(name: String) -> HandlerResult;
}
struct GreeterImpl;
impl Greeter for GreeterImpl {
async fn greet(&self, _: Context<'_>, name: String) -> HandlerResult {
Ok(format!("Greetings {name}"))
}
}
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
// To enable logging/tracing
// tracing_subscriber::fmt::init();
HttpServer::new(
Endpoint::builder()
.with_service(GreeterImpl.serve())
.build(),
)
.listen_and_serve("0.0.0.0:9080".parse().unwrap())
.await;
}
```
## Running on Lambda
The Restate Rust SDK supports running services on AWS Lambda using Lambda Function URLs. This allows you to deploy your Restate services as serverless functions.
### Setup
First, enable the `lambda` feature in your `Cargo.toml`:
```toml
[dependencies]
restate-sdk = { version = "0.1", features = ["lambda"] }
tokio = { version = "1", features = ["full"] }
```
### Basic Lambda Service
Here's how to create a simple Lambda service:
```rust
use restate_sdk::prelude::*;
#[restate_sdk::service]
trait Greeter {
async fn greet(name: String) -> HandlerResult;
}
struct GreeterImpl;
impl Greeter for GreeterImpl {
async fn greet(&self, _: Context<'_>, name: String) -> HandlerResult {
Ok(format!("Greetings {name}"))
}
}
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
// To enable logging/tracing
// check https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/rust-logging.html#rust-logging-tracing
// Build and run the Lambda endpoint
LambdaEndpoint::run(
Endpoint::builder()
.bind(GreeterImpl.serve())
.build(),
)
.await
.unwrap();
}
```
### Deployment
1. Install `cargo-lambda`
```
cargo install cargo-lambda
```
2. Build your Lambda function:
```bash
cargo lambda build --release --arm64 --output-format zip
```
3. Create a Lambda function with the following configuration:
- **Runtime**: Amazon Linux 2023
- **Architecture**: arm64
4. Upload your `zip` file to the Lambda function.
### Logging
The SDK uses tokio's [`tracing`](https://docs.rs/tracing/latest/tracing/) crate to generate logs.
Just configure it as usual through [`tracing_subscriber`](https://docs.rs/tracing-subscriber/latest/tracing_subscriber/) to get your logs.
### Testing
The SDK uses [Testcontainers](https://rust.testcontainers.org/) to support integration testing using a Docker-deployed restate server.
The `restate-sdk-testcontainers` crate provides a framework for initializing the test environment, and an integration test example in `testcontainers/tests/test_container.rs`.
```rust
#[tokio::test]
async fn test_container() {
tracing_subscriber::fmt::fmt()
.with_max_level(tracing::Level::INFO) // Set the maximum log level
.init();
let endpoint = Endpoint::builder().bind(MyServiceImpl.serve()).build();
// simple test container intialization with default configuration
//let test_container = TestContainer::default().start(endpoint).await.unwrap();
// custom test container initialization with builder
let test_container = TestContainer::builder()
// optional passthrough logging from the resstate server testcontainer
// prints container logs to tracing::info level
.with_container_logging()
.with_container(
"docker.io/restatedev/restate".to_string(),
"latest".to_string(),
)
.build()
.start(endpoint)
.await
.unwrap();
let ingress_url = test_container.ingress_url();
// call container ingress url for /MyService/my_handler
let response = reqwest::Client::new()
.post(format!("{}/MyService/my_handler", ingress_url))
.header("Accept", "application/json")
.header("Content-Type", "*/*")
.header("idempotency-key", "abc")
.send()
.await
.unwrap();
assert_eq!(response.status(), StatusCode::OK);
info!(
"/MyService/my_handler response: {:?}",
response.text().await.unwrap()
);
}
```
## Versions
The Rust SDK is currently in active development, and might break across releases.
The compatibility with Restate is described in the following table:
| Restate Server\sdk-rust | < 0.4 | 0.4 - 0.5 | 0.6 | 0.7 |
|-------------------------|------------------|-----------|------------------|------------------|
| < 1.3 | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ |
| 1.3 | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ (1) | ✅ (2) |
| 1.4 | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ (2) |
| 1.5 | ⚠ (3) | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |
(1) **Note** `bind_with_options` works only from Restate 1.4 onward.
(2) **Note** the new `retry_policy` options work only from Restate 1.5 onward. Check the in-code documentation for more details.
(3) **Warning** SDK versions < 0.4 are deprecated, and cannot be registered anymore. Check the [Restate 1.5 release notes](https://github.com/restatedev/restate/releases/tag/v1.5.0) for more info.

### Building the SDK locally
Prerequisites:
- [Rust](https://rustup.rs/)
- [Just](https://github.com/casey/just)
To build and test the SDK:
```shell
just verify
```
### Releasing
You need the [Rust toolchain](https://rustup.rs/). To verify:
```
just verify
```
To release we use [cargo-release](https://github.com/crate-ci/cargo-release):
```
cargo release --exclude test-services --workspace
```
