/* Actix-Web Asynchronous Database Example This project illustrates expensive and blocking database requests that runs in a thread-pool using `web::block` with two examples: 1. An asynchronous handler that executes 4 queries in *sequential order*, collecting the results and returning them as a single serialized json object 2. An asynchronous handler that executes 4 queries in *parallel*, collecting the results and returning them as a single serialized json object Note: The use of sleep(Duration::from_secs(2)); in db.rs is to make performance improvement with parallelism more obvious. */ use std::io; use actix_web::{middleware, web, App, Error as AWError, HttpResponse, HttpServer}; use futures::future::join_all; use r2d2_sqlite::{self, SqliteConnectionManager}; mod db; use db::{Pool, Queries}; /// Version 1: Calls 4 queries in sequential order, as an asynchronous handler #[allow(clippy::eval_order_dependence)] // it's FP? async fn asyncio_weather(db: web::Data) -> Result { let result = vec![ db::execute(&db, Queries::GetTopTenHottestYears).await?, db::execute(&db, Queries::GetTopTenColdestYears).await?, db::execute(&db, Queries::GetTopTenHottestMonths).await?, db::execute(&db, Queries::GetTopTenColdestMonths).await?, ]; Ok(HttpResponse::Ok().json(result)) } /// Version 2: Calls 4 queries in parallel, as an asynchronous handler /// Returning Error types turn into None values in the response async fn parallel_weather(db: web::Data) -> Result { let fut_result = vec![ Box::pin(db::execute(&db, Queries::GetTopTenHottestYears)), Box::pin(db::execute(&db, Queries::GetTopTenColdestYears)), Box::pin(db::execute(&db, Queries::GetTopTenHottestMonths)), Box::pin(db::execute(&db, Queries::GetTopTenColdestMonths)), ]; let result: Result, _> = join_all(fut_result).await.into_iter().collect(); Ok(HttpResponse::Ok().json(result.map_err(AWError::from)?)) } #[actix_web::main] async fn main() -> io::Result<()> { std::env::set_var("RUST_LOG", "actix_web=info"); env_logger::init(); // Start N db executor actors (N = number of cores avail) let manager = SqliteConnectionManager::file("weather.db"); let pool = Pool::new(manager).unwrap(); // Start http server HttpServer::new(move || { App::new() // store db pool as Data object .data(pool.clone()) .wrap(middleware::Logger::default()) .service( web::resource("/asyncio_weather").route(web::get().to(asyncio_weather)), ) .service( web::resource("/parallel_weather") .route(web::get().to(parallel_weather)), ) }) .bind("127.0.0.1:8080")? .run() .await }
