I'm attempting to learn Rust by implementing a simple in-memory URL shortener with Hyper 0.10. I'm running into an issue that I think is caused by trying to close over a mutable HashMap
in my handler:
fn post(mut req: Request, mut res: Response, short_uris: &mut HashMap<&str, &str>) {
let mut body = String::new();
match req.read_to_string(&mut body) {
Ok(_) => {
let key = short_uris.len();
short_uris.insert(&key.to_string(), &body.to_string());
*res.status_mut() = StatusCode::Created;
res.start().unwrap().write(&key.to_string().into_bytes());
},
Err(_) => *res.status_mut() = StatusCode::BadRequest
}
}
fn get(req: Request, mut res: Response, short_uris: &HashMap<&str, &str>) {
match req.uri.clone() {
AbsolutePath(path) => {
match short_uris.get::<str>(&path) {
Some(short_uri) => {
*res.status_mut() = StatusCode::MovedPermanently;
res.headers_mut().set(Location(short_uri.to_string()));
},
None => *res.status_mut() = StatusCode::NotFound
}
},
_ => *res.status_mut() = StatusCode::BadRequest
}
}
fn main() {
let mut short_uris: HashMap<&str, &str> = HashMap::new();
short_uris.insert("/example", "http://www.example.com");
Server::http("0.0.0.0:3001").unwrap().handle(move |req: Request, mut res: Response| {
match req.method {
hyper::Post => post(req, res, &mut short_uris),
hyper::Get => get(req, res, &short_uris),
_ => *res.status_mut() = StatusCode::MethodNotAllowed
}
}).unwrap();
}
src/main.rs:42:40: 42:46 error: the trait bound `for<'r, 'r, 'r> [closure@src/main.rs:42:47: 48:3 short_uris:std::collections::HashMap<&str, &str>]: std::ops::Fn<(hyper::server::Request<'r, 'r>, hyper::server::Response<'r>)>` is not satisfied [E0277]

Do I need to use an Arc
to share the HashMap
between threads? If so, what would that look like? Also, I could be totally wrong about the issue. The error message is very cryptic to me.
