Crate actix_settings

Easily manage Actix Web’s settings from a TOML file and environment variables.

To get started add a Settings::parse_toml("./Server.toml") call to the top of your main function. This will create a template file with descriptions of all the configurable settings. You can change or remove anything in that file and it will be picked up the next time you run your application.

Overriding parts of the file can be done from values using Settings::override_field or from the environment using Settings::override_field_with_env_var.

Examples

See examples folder on GitHub for complete example.

use actix_settings::{ApplySettings as _, Mode, Settings};

#[actix_web::main]
async fn main() -> std::io::Result<()> {
    let mut settings = Settings::parse_toml("./Server.toml")
        .expect("Failed to parse `Settings` from Server.toml");

    // If the environment variable `$APPLICATION__HOSTS` is set,
    // have its value override the `settings.actix.hosts` setting:
    Settings::override_field_with_env_var(&mut settings.actix.hosts, "APPLICATION__HOSTS")?;

    init_logger(&settings);

    HttpServer::new({
        // clone settings into each worker thread
        let settings = settings.clone();

        move || {
            App::new()
                // Include this `.wrap()` call for compression settings to take effect
                .wrap(Condition::new(
                    settings.actix.enable_compression,
                    Compress::default(),
                ))

                // add request logger
                .wrap(Logger::default())

                // make `Settings` available to handlers
                .app_data(web::Data::new(settings.clone()))

                // add request handlers as normal
                .service(index)
        }
    })
    // apply the `Settings` to Actix Web's `HttpServer`
    .apply_settings(&settings)
    .run()
    .await
