Autumn 0.4.0

Ship the app, not the plumbing.

Autumn gives Rust teams the batteries they expect from mature app frameworks: typed routes, Maud views, Postgres persistence, background work, health checks, and production defaults in one server-rendered path.

Rust

use autumn_web::prelude::*;

#[get("/")]
async fn index() -> Markup {
    html! { h1 { "Hello, Autumn." } }
}

#[autumn_web::main]
async fn main() {
    autumn_web::app()
        .routes(routes![index])
        .run()
        .await;
}

Companion release

Autumn Harvest 0.3.0

Harvest adds Postgres-backed durable workflows to Autumn: activities, timers, signals, child workflows, DAG schedules, replay, dead letters, and a management API without operating a separate workflow server.

Getting Started with Autumn

This guide takes you from zero to a running Autumn web app with routes, a database, HTML templates, interactive UI, and the published autumn-web 0.4 release line. Budget about 30 minutes.

Coming From Other Frameworks

If you think in Spring Boot, Django, or Rails, this guide maps the concepts you already know to their Autumn equivalents. Same ideas, different syntax.

What Happens When...The questions you have at hour two, not hour one. This guide covers the failure modes, edge cases, and "what if" scenarios that the getting-started guide doesn't cover.Integration TestingAutumn ships a first-party test surface (autumn_web::test) that brings Rails-grade ergonomics to Rust integration testing: one line to boot a fully-wired app, assertions that chain, and a shared Postgres testcontainer that keeps your test suite fast.Record-Level Authorization#[secured] answers "are you in?" — is this request authenticated, and is the user in one of the listed roles? It does not answer "are you allowed to act on this specific record?" That is the question every multi-user CRUD app has to answer at every write endpoint, and it is what Autumn's Policy trait, the #[authorize] macro, and the policy = argument on #[repository] exist for.Background Jobs (`#[job]`)Autumn provides first-class ad-hoc background jobs for request-triggered async work.Cloud-Native AutumnThis guide is the blunt version: Autumn can run as a single-process monolith with almost no config, but that does not automatically make every default safe for multi-replica production.Deploying an Autumn AppThis guide walks you from a fresh autumn new project to a production-shaped container running against a real Postgres database. Every command is verbatim; no file editing is required to reach a running container.
