# Integrating with Iron
|
|
|
|
[Iron] is a library that's been around for a while in the Rust sphere but lately
|
|
hasn't seen much of development. Nevertheless, it's still a solid library with a
|
|
familiar request/response/middleware architecture that works on Rust's stable
|
|
channel.
|
|
|
|
Juniper's Iron integration is contained in the `juniper_iron` crate:
|
|
|
|
!FILENAME Cargo.toml
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
[dependencies]
|
|
juniper = "0.10"
|
|
juniper_iron = "0.2.0"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Included in the source is a [small
|
|
example](https://github.com/graphql-rust/juniper_iron/blob/master/examples/iron_server.rs)
|
|
which sets up a basic GraphQL and [GraphiQL] handler.
|
|
|
|
## Basic integration
|
|
|
|
Let's start with a minimal schema and just get a GraphQL endpoint up and
|
|
running. We use [mount] to attach the GraphQL handler at `/graphql`.
|
|
|
|
The `context_factory` function will be executed on every request and can be used
|
|
to set up database connections, read session token information from cookies, and
|
|
set up other global data that the schema might require.
|
|
|
|
In this example, we won't use any global data so we just return an empty value.
|
|
|
|
```rust,ignore
|
|
extern crate juniper;
|
|
extern crate juniper_iron;
|
|
extern crate iron;
|
|
extern crate mount;
|
|
|
|
use mount::Mount;
|
|
use iron::prelude::*;
|
|
use juniper::EmptyMutation;
|
|
use juniper_iron::GraphQLHandler;
|
|
|
|
fn context_factory(_: &mut Request) -> IronResult<()> {
|
|
Ok(())
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
struct Root;
|
|
|
|
#[juniper::graphql_object]
|
|
impl Root {
|
|
fn foo() -> String {
|
|
"Bar".to_owned()
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
# #[allow(unreachable_code, unused_variables)]
|
|
fn main() {
|
|
let mut mount = Mount::new();
|
|
|
|
let graphql_endpoint = GraphQLHandler::new(
|
|
context_factory,
|
|
Root,
|
|
EmptyMutation::<()>::new(),
|
|
);
|
|
|
|
mount.mount("/graphql", graphql_endpoint);
|
|
|
|
let chain = Chain::new(mount);
|
|
|
|
# return;
|
|
Iron::new(chain).http("0.0.0.0:8080").unwrap();
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Accessing data from the request
|
|
|
|
If you want to access e.g. the source IP address of the request from a field
|
|
resolver, you need to pass this data using Juniper's [context feature](../types/objects/using_contexts.md).
|
|
|
|
```rust,ignore
|
|
# extern crate juniper;
|
|
# extern crate juniper_iron;
|
|
# extern crate iron;
|
|
# use iron::prelude::*;
|
|
use std::net::SocketAddr;
|
|
|
|
struct Context {
|
|
remote_addr: SocketAddr,
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
impl juniper::Context for Context {}
|
|
|
|
fn context_factory(req: &mut Request) -> IronResult<Context> {
|
|
Ok(Context {
|
|
remote_addr: req.remote_addr
|
|
})
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
struct Root;
|
|
|
|
#[juniper::graphql_object(
|
|
Context = Context,
|
|
)]
|
|
impl Root {
|
|
field my_addr(context: &Context) -> String {
|
|
format!("Hello, you're coming from {}", context.remote_addr)
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
# fn main() {
|
|
# let _graphql_endpoint = juniper_iron::GraphQLHandler::new(
|
|
# context_factory,
|
|
# Root,
|
|
# juniper::EmptyMutation::<Context>::new(),
|
|
# );
|
|
# }
|
|
```
