Rust building blocks for the Web Interface Protocol (WIP).
|
||||
|
||||
The repository currently provides a transport-independent protocol model, a
|
||||
Rust interface-authoring facade, and a request-scoped host runtime. HTTP and
|
||||
other transport bindings are intentionally outside the supported slice.

| `wip-protocol` | Transport-independent descriptors, object/call/result types, logical `Value`s, validation, and stable protocol error categories. | Application DTOs, implementations, persistence, or wire encoding. |
|
||||
| `wip-interface` | The public `WipType`/`interface` authoring API, Rust-to-protocol codecs, generated descriptors, and typed implementation dispatch. | Object publication, backend lifetime, or transport policy. |
|
||||
| `wip-interface-macros` | Procedural-macro expansion used by `wip-interface`. It is not an application dependency. | A supported direct user API. |
|
||||
| `wip-host` | Opaque interface registration, explicit object membership, validator checks, and interface-qualified dispatch against one host-owned instance. | Backend atomicity, global object lookup, or network serving. |
|
||||
| `wip-public-api-example` | An independently compiled consumer of only the three public crates. Its DTOs and traits are application-owned; its implementation and backend handle remain host-private. | Reusable library API or a production server. |
|
||||
|
||||
The boundary is intentional: protocol types describe what can cross a
|
||||
transport; application DTOs opt into that model with `WipType`; a host-private
|
||||
implementation owns credentials, handles, and backend state; and a future
|
||||
transport maps its own routes/envelopes to `OperationCall`/`OperationResult`
|
||||
without placing transport-specific types in descriptors or application traits.
|
||||
|
||||
## End-to-end example
|
||||
|
||||
[`src/lib.rs`](src/lib.rs) is the complete public-API example and
|
||||
[`src/main.rs`](src/main.rs) runs it. It demonstrates all of the following:
|
||||
|
||||
1. public application DTOs derived as `WipType` records and unions;
|
||||
2. two public traits declared with `#[wip::interface]`;
|
||||
3. a private host struct implementing both traits;
|
||||
4. explicit publication of both interfaces on one object;
|
||||
5. registry observation and validation of generated descriptors;
|
||||
6. calls made with interface references, operation names, and `Value` arguments;
|
||||
7. validated result values decoded back to the typed application result;
|
||||
8. independent dispatch of the same `status` operation name on both interfaces;
|
||||
9. a domain rejection returned as data and a backend failure returned as a host
|
||||
error.
|
||||
|
||||
Run it inside the development shell:
|
||||
|
||||
```console
|
||||
nix develop
|
||||
cargo run --package wip-public-api-example
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The normal integration test is in [`tests/end_to_end.rs`](tests/end_to_end.rs).
|
||||
Unit tests beside the example additionally cover every host dispatch failure,
|
||||
invalid arguments and results, interface membership, validators, and
|
||||
same-named operations.

### Type mapping
|
||||
### Supported Rust syntax
|
||||
|
||||
A supported interface is a public, non-generic trait containing methods with:
|
||||
|
||||
- exactly an immutable `&self` receiver;
|
||||
- simple named, owned parameters;
|
||||
- an explicit `wip::OperationResult<T>` return;
|
||||
- `()` only as the application return when no value is produced; and
|
||||
- direct `Option<T>` only for an omittable parameter.
|
||||
|
||||
`WipType` derives support named-field structs, all-unit enums, and enums whose
|
||||
variants each contain exactly one unnamed payload. The macros reject private,
|
||||
generic, inherited, unsafe, auto, or associated-item traits; const, async,
|
||||
unsafe, extern, variadic, generic, default-bodied, or non-`&self` methods;
|
||||
borrowed/custom-lifetime values; tuple/unit/generic structs; Rust unions;
|
||||
mixed/named-field enum variants; explicit discriminants; nested `Option`; and
|
||||
`Option` in returns, collections, entries, or union payloads. These diagnostics
|
||||
are compile-fail tested under `crates/wip-interface/tests/ui`.

other receiver forms are rejected at their source spans.

Enter the dev shell and run the acceptance commands exactly:

```console
|

nix develop
|
||||
cargo fmt --all -- --check
|
||||
cargo check --workspace --all-targets
|

cargo test --workspace --all-targets
|
||||
cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
`cargo test --workspace --all-targets` includes the public example integration
|
||||
test, runtime failure tests, and `trybuild` compile-fail suites. Run
|
||||
`cargo test --workspace --doc` when validating the checked rustdoc examples
|
||||
separately.
