Docs Smoke Procedure | Autumn Rust Web Framework Docs

This docs-smoke procedure certifies the public first-run path for the published Autumn 0.4.x line. It must use Rust 1.88.0+ and the published autumn-cli and autumn-web crates unless the release is explicitly in a pre-publish rehearsal.

Run it in a clean temporary directory, not inside the Autumn checkout:

Shell

rustc --version
cargo install autumn-cli --version 0.4.0

mkdir autumn-docs-smoke
cd autumn-docs-smoke
autumn new smoke-app
cd smoke-app
autumn setup
cargo run

In a second terminal, verify the first route and framework endpoints:

Shell

curl -fsS http://127.0.0.1:3000/
curl -fsS http://127.0.0.1:3000/hello/world
curl -fsS http://127.0.0.1:3000/health

Passing output:

/ returns Welcome to smoke-app!.
/hello/world returns Hello, world!.
/health returns:
Json
```
{ "status": "ok", "version": "0.4.0" }
```

Do not add [patch.crates-io], path dependencies, or cargo install --path when certifying the published-user path. Those are contributor-mode shortcuts, not first-run documentation proof.

Pre-Publish Rehearsal

Before the autumn-cli or autumn-web release has reached crates.io, the same commands may be rehearsed against the workspace only if the release notes record why the smoke is temporary:

Text

docs-smoke: workspace-prepublish rehearsal because autumn-cli/autumn-web 0.4.0
were not yet available on crates.io.

That rehearsal does not certify the release. The published docs-smoke must be rerun with cargo install autumn-cli --version 0.4.0 and no workspace patches before announcing the release.
