Module serde 

Serialization and deserialization support.

• JSON support is provided by the Json type.
• MessagePack support is provided by the MsgPack type.
• UUID support is provided by the UUID type.

Types implement one or all of FromParam, FromForm, FromData, and Responder.

Deriving Serialize, Deserialize

For convenience, Rocket re-exports serde’s Serialize and Deserialize traits and derive macros from this module. However, due to Rust’s limited support for derive macro re-exports, using the re-exported derive macros requires annotating structures with #[serde(crate = "rocket::serde")]:

use rocket::serde::{Serialize, Deserialize};

#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize)]
#[serde(crate = "rocket::serde")]
struct MyStruct {
    foo: String,
}

If you’d like to avoid this extra annotation, you must depend on serde directly via your crate’s Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
serde = { version = "1.0", features = ["derive"] }
