Showcase: Axium, an example API (lemmy.world)

Hi there Rustians! A few months ago I posted about my hobby project. Just wanted to give an update.

Axium is a template for an API backend.

In the last few months I have added:

HTTP-cookie authentication (got it to work with a javascript site),
Password resetting,
User registration,
Example routes for interacting with S3 storage
Lots of input validation,
Caching,
Mailing (for the password reset and user registration).

I think that it is almost ready to be used as a backend for my website. Almost everything is marked off my wishlist, just need a few helper to help me check the security of the authentication and registration functions.

Very quickly skimmed Cargo.toml and main.rs.

What's with the title-case name?
The name proximity to axum is also not cool.
You should mention that this is built on top of axum in the project description.
How did you end up using both lazy_static and once_cell, when OnceLock has been stable since 1.70 and axum's MSRV is 1.75?
Why did you copy-paste min-sized-rust flags?
You can actually print like this:

println!("{proto}://{ip}:{port}");

instead of

println!("{0}://{1}:{2}", proto, ip, port);

and the positional indices are redundant anyway.

Since you're depending on tracing, you should actually use tracing::error instead of eprintln!("❌ ...").

Okay. I will stop here.

Hi there, thank you for your feedback!

Not sure what you mean with title case name. Nevertheless, I chose a name with proximity to actually show that this project is implementing Axum. It took a long time before I could find a name that was unique (I know it might seem silly to just add a letter).

The README.md and GitHub project description mention Axum.

Didn't know about OnceLock. Some modules were created weeks apart from each other. During this time I might have forgotten that I used a similar library.

Didn't know about the min-sized-rust project. Found these suggested by a few users on Reddit.

Oh cool, I do not print that often. Looks a lot cleaner.

Those eprints, uhm. Might sound silly. Haven't thought about implementing it using tracing. Might have been a bit lazy. It worked fine in the datbase module, copied it afterwards over to the Redis/S3/mail modules.

Thank you for your feedback!

I'm not a full time programmer. Feedback helps me to improve myself :)

Ps, I already have fixed a few things.
