shuttle: v0.12.0 update

We're excited to release shuttle v0.12.0! 🚀

Removing our unsafe FFI

As of this release Shuttle will no longer rely on compiling users projects as dynamic libraries, we have refactored the codegen to embed the required code to configure and add resources to a users project binary. This means we can get rid of the unsafe FFI needed to load the dynamic libraries, which was a big source of memory issues (especially for local runs). As a result of the refactor, we’ll be able to:

  • Get rid of the Sync requirement for services.
  • Get rid of the extra tokio::Runtime that is currently required for shuttle resources to be started on the correct side of the FFI (e.g. shuttle_shared_db, shuttle_secrets).
  • Correctly stop deployments.
  • Remove the version pin on tokio (as of writing it is pinned to 1.22).

Shuttle-next framework

Shuttle-next is a brand new WASM web-framework based on axum and hyper. There are many benefits to using WASM for a backend web-framework, but one of the key features is the isolation it offers. Since WASM modules have no notion of a file system, a shuttle-next project can only interact with the host through resources explicitly declared by us. In this first iteration, the only resource available is an HTTP stream to and from a project.

Shuttle-next is very much a work in progress, and we're releasing this iteration without some of the
features that make shuttle a pleasure to use, for example the ability to effortlessly deploy and connect to a database. It's also not currently possible to use any middleware. We're planning to implement this functionality, and more, in the near future. We're also hoping that the feedback we get from this release will help us see which features we should prioritize, and which areas of the framework's design need the most attention going forward.

Below is a small example of shuttle-next, see the example in our docs for more information.

Note: shuttle-next does not currently work on Windows, it only works on unix systems (i.e mac, Linux and Windows Subsystem for Linux). We aim to resolve this in future releases.

// lib.rs
shuttle_next::app! {
    #[shuttle_next::endpoint(method = get, route = "/hello")]
    async fn hello() -> &'static str {
        "Hello, World!"
    }
}

Extracting the service integrations

The service implementations for frameworks like Axum, Rocket, Serenity etc., have now been extracted into separate crates. You will now need to depend on that crate, e.g shuttle_axum = "0.12.0", rather than shuttle-service = { version = "0.12.0", features = ["web-axum"] }.

Bug fixes

  • Fixed a bug where windows users had to do a cargo build before they could cargo shuttle run: #721
  • Fixed a bug where the file contents of static assets in the shuttle_static_files directory were deleted in local runs: #717
  • Fixed a bug where passing a path to cargo shuttle init would return an error: #706

Protoc requirement

Due to new dependencies we can’t go without users will now need to install protoc to install and use cargo-shuttle and our other crates. We tried to find a way around this requirement, but it came at the cost of significantly increased build times. We know this extra step required before being able to use shuttle is far from ideal, and we’ll try to find a good way around it in the future.

Mac and Linux

To install protoc from the distributed binary, you can use this script:

# replace <arch> with your architecture, for example for linux x86_64 replace <arch> with: linux-x86_64
curl -OL https://github.com/protocolbuffers/protobuf/releases/download/v21.9/protoc-21.9-<arch>.zip &&\
        sudo unzip -o protoc-21.9-<arch>.zip -d /usr/local bin/protoc &&\
        sudo unzip -o protoc-21.9-<arch>.zip -d /usr/local 'include/*' &&\
        rm -f protoc-21.9-<arch>.zip

If you'd like to do this yourself without the above script, see instructions here: https://grpc.io/docs/protoc-installation/#install-pre-compiled-binaries-any-os

On mac you can also install protoc with brew: brew install protobuf.

Note: installing protoc on Linux with apt-get install protobuf-compiler will not be enough, since it will install an old version of protoc (v3.12) but it needs to be at least v3.19. Installing on mac using brew works.

Windows

On Windows the simplest way to install protoc is to first install chocolatey, and then simply run: choco install protoc

Upgrading

Due to the nature of these changes, all projects will be stopped and forced to upgrade. Please see instructions here for how to upgrade, as well as our updated examples and updated docs

First, since your project will now be compiled as a binary and no longer a library, you need to convert it to a binary. That means renaming the lib.rs file where your shuttle_service::main function currently is to main.rs, and you’ll also need to remove the [lib] field from your Cargo.toml.

We have also made some changes to the imports, you’ll now need to import shuttle-runtime and tokio, as well as the service integration for your framework. See the example below.

# Before for axum apps
axum = "0.6"
shuttle-service = { version = "0.11.0", features = ["web-axum"] }
sync_wrapper = "0.1.1"

# After for axum apps
axum = "0.6"
shuttle-axum = "0.12.0"
shuttle-runtime = "0.12.0"
tokio = "1.26.0"

# Before for serenity bots
serenity = { version = "0.11.5", default-features = false, features = ["client", "gateway", "rustls_backend", "model"] }
shuttle-secrets = "0.11.0"
shuttle-service = { version = "0.11.0", features = ["bot-serenity"] }

# After for serenity bots
serenity = { version = "0.11.5", default-features = false, features = ["client", "gateway", "rustls_backend", "model"] }
shuttle-runtime = "0.12.0"
shuttle-serenity = "0.12.0"
shuttle-secrets = "0.12.0"
tokio = "1.26.0"

Since the service integrations now live in a different crate from where the Service trait is defined, they need to be wrapped in a new-type for us to be able to implement Service for them. This means you need to wrap the return type from your shuttle_runtime::main function in this type, but he have implemented From from for all the integrations, so you can simply return Ok(router.into()). See an example of upgrading an axum app below, and see our updated examples for other integrations:

// Before in src/lib.rs
use axum::{routing::get, Router};
use sync_wrapper::SyncWrapper;

async fn hello_world() -> &'static str {
    "Hello, world!"
}

#[shuttle_service::main]
async fn axum() -> shuttle_service::ShuttleAxum {
    let router = Router::new().route("/hello", get(hello_world));
    let sync_wrapper = SyncWrapper::new(router);

    Ok(sync_wrapper)
}

// After in src/main.rs
use axum::{routing::get, Router};

async fn hello_world() -> &'static str {
    "Hello, world!"
}

#[shuttle_runtime::main]
async fn axum() -> shuttle_axum::ShuttleAxum {
    let router = Router::new().route("/hello", get(hello_world));

    Ok(router.into())
}

To upgrade your shuttle CLI, run: cargo install cargo-shuttle, or if you’re using cargo-binstall, cargo binstall cargo-shuttle.

If you’d like to upgrade your project container, run the rm and new project commands. This will not delete any databases, and you will keep your project name:

cargo shuttle project rm 
cargo shuttle project new

Finally, redeploy your shuttle service:

cargo shuttle deploy
