Struct Client

Source

pub struct Client { /* private fields */ }

Expand description

A blocking client to construct and dispatch local requests.

For details, see the top-level documentation. For the async version, see asynchronous::Client.

§Example

The following snippet creates a Client from a Rocket instance and dispatches a local POST / request with a body of Hello, world!.

use rocket::local::blocking::Client;

let rocket = rocket::build();
let client = Client::tracked(rocket).expect("valid rocket");
let response = client.post("/")
    .body("Hello, world!")
    .dispatch();

Implementations§

Source §

impl Client

Source

pub fn tracked<P: Phase>(rocket: Rocket) -> Result<Self, Error>

Construct a new Client from an instance of Rocket with cookie tracking. This is typically the desired mode of operation for testing.

With cookie tracking enabled, a Client propagates cookie changes made by responses to previously dispatched requests. In other words, succeeding requests reflect changes (additions and removals) made by any prior responses.

Cookie tracking requires synchronization between dispatches. As such, cookie tracking should not be enabled if a local client is being used to serve requests on multiple threads.

§Errors

If launching the Rocket instance would fail, excepting network errors, the Error is returned.

use rocket::local::blocking::Client;

let rocket = rocket::build();
let client = Client::tracked(rocket);

Source

pub fn tracked_secure<P: Phase>(rocket: Rocket) -> Result<Self, Error>

Source

pub fn untracked<P: Phase>(rocket: Rocket) -> Result<Self, Error>

Construct a new Client from an instance of Rocket without cookie tracking.

Unlike the tracked() constructor, a Client returned from this method does not automatically propagate cookie changes and thus requires no synchronization between dispatches.

§Errors

If launching the Rocket instance would fail, excepting network errors, the Error is returned.

use rocket::local::blocking::Client;

let rocket = rocket::build();
let client = Client::untracked(rocket);

Source

pub fn untracked_secure<P: Phase>(rocket: Rocket) -> Result<Self, Error>

Source

pub fn terminate(self) -> Rocket<Ignite>

Terminates Client by initiating a graceful shutdown via Shutdown::notify() and running shutdown fairings.

This method must be called on a Client if graceful shutdown is required for testing as Drop does not signal Shutdown nor run shutdown fairings. Returns the instance of Rocket being managed by this client after all shutdown fairings run to completion.

use rocket::local::blocking::Client;

let client: Client = client;
let rocket = client.terminate();

Source

pub fn rocket(&self) -> &Rocket<Orbit>

Returns a reference to the Rocket this client is creating requests for.

§Example

use rocket::local::blocking::Client;

let client: &Client = client;
let rocket = client.rocket();

Source

pub fn cookies(&self) -> CookieJar<'_>

Returns a cookie jar containing all of the cookies this client is currently tracking.

If cookie tracking is disabled, the returned jar will always be empty. Otherwise, it will contains all of the cookies collected from responses to requests dispatched by this client that have not expired.

§Example

use rocket::local::blocking::Client;

let client: &Client = client;
let cookie = client.cookies();
