serde extensions for the http crate types

Allows serializing and deserializing the following types from http:

Allows serializing and deserializing the above types wrapped in the following std container types:

  • Option
  • Result in the Ok position
  • Vec
  • VecDeque
  • LinkedList
  • HashMap as the Key for all except HeaderMap, Request, and Response. As the Value for all types.
  • BTreeMap as the Key only for HeaderValue, StatusCode, and Version. As the Value for all types.
  • HashSet for all except HeaderMap, Request, and Response
  • BTreeSet only for HeaderValue, StatusCode, and Version

Installation

Run the following Cargo command in your project directory:

cargo add http-serde-ext

Or add the following line to your Cargo.toml:

http-serde-ext = "1.0.2"

Usage

This library is intended to be used with serde's derive feature. Fields should use the appropriate #[serde(with = "...")] annotation for that type. Full examples are provided in each module section of the docs.

use std::collections::*;

use http::*;
use serde::{Serialize, Deserialize};

#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize)]
struct MyStruct {
    #[serde(with = "http_serde_ext::response")]
    base: Response<Vec<u8>>,

    #[serde(with = "http_serde_ext::request::option", default)]
    option: Option<Request<String>>,

    #[serde(with = "http_serde_ext::method::vec")]
    vec: Vec<Method>,

    #[serde(with = "http_serde_ext::uri::vec_deque")]
    vec_deque: VecDeque<Uri>,

    #[serde(with = "http_serde_ext::header_map::linked_list")]
    linked_list: LinkedList<HeaderMap>,

    #[serde(with = "http_serde_ext::header_map_generic::hash_map")]
    hash_map: HashMap<String, HeaderMap<String>>,

    #[serde(with = "http_serde_ext::status_code::btree_map_key")]
    btree_map: BTreeMap<StatusCode, i32>,

    #[serde(with = "http_serde_ext::authority::hash_set")]
    hash_set: HashSet<uri::Authority>,
}

This library can also be used to manually De/Serialize types if given a De/Serializer. For example, when using serde_json:

let uri = http::Uri::default();
let serialized = http_serde_ext::uri::serialize(&uri, serde_json::value::Serializer).unwrap();
let deserialized = http_serde_ext::uri::deserialize(serialized).unwrap();
assert_eq!(uri, deserialized);

let mut responses: Vec<http::Response<()>> = vec![http::Response::default()];
let serialized =
    http_serde_ext::response::vec::serialize(&responses, serde_json::value::Serializer)
        .unwrap();
let mut deserialized: Vec<http::Response<()>> =
    http_serde_ext::response::vec::deserialize(serialized).unwrap();

let original = responses.remove(0).into_parts();
let deserialized = deserialized.remove(0).into_parts();

assert_eq!(original.0.status, deserialized.0.status);
assert_eq!(original.0.version, deserialized.0.version);
assert_eq!(original.0.headers, deserialized.0.headers);
assert_eq!(original.1, deserialized.1);

This crate is heavily inspired by Kornel's http-serde.
