# actix-todo
A port of the [Rocket Todo example](https://github.com/SergioBenitez/Rocket/tree/master/examples/todo) into [actix-web](https://actix.rs/). Except this uses PostgreSQL instead of SQLite.
# Usage
## Prerequisites
* Rust >= 1.26
* PostgreSQL >= 9.5
## Change into the project sub-directory
All instructions assume you have changed into this folder:
```bash
cd basics/todo
```
## Set up the database
Install the [diesel](http://diesel.rs) command-line tool including the `postgres` feature:
```bash
cargo install diesel_cli --no-default-features --features postgres
```
Check the contents of the `.env` file. If your database requires a password, update `DATABASE_URL` to be of the form:
```.env
DATABASE_URL=postgres://username:password@localhost/actix_todo
```
Then to create and set-up the database run:
```bash
diesel database setup
```
## Run the application
To run the application execute:
```bash
cargo run
```
Then to view it in your browser navigate to: [http://localhost:8080/](http://localhost:8080/)
