Rust Vercel API

Introduction

This project is a Rust API deployed on Vercel. It is designed for users to build Rust code which can then be called using POST requests. This repository is an easy to use Rust-Vercel API that can be amended for your own requirements.

Example

There are 3 API calls in the repository and they are outlined below:

1. A basic indexing call:

   POST https://vercel-rust-two.vercel.app/api/user/[1]
   Content-Type: application/json
   
   {}

   This returns the number received at the end of the url. In this case we have 1.

   [
   1
   ]

2. A random planet generator.

   POST https://vercel-rust-two.vercel.app/api/simple
   Content-Type: application/json
   
   {}

   This returns a randomly generated planet in our Solar System.

   {
       "message": "I choose the planet, Earth!"
   }

3. A random planet generator with a specified input.

   POST https://vercel-rust-two.vercel.app/api/complex
   Content-Type: application/json
   
   {
       "name": "Ellie"
   }

   This returns a randomly generated planet in our Solar System.

   {
       "message": "Ellie says: I choose the planet, Uranus!"
   }
