how not to use shuttle? #13
Comments
Hi @tessus, thank you for your feedback. The whole point of the workshop was to show people how to easily deploy with Shuttle, but note that we separated our endpoints into a library so we could use them in a standalone Actix app. See this mention in the workshop. That being said, the code in this repo has a Shuttle and a pure Actix crate. So you can take a look there to check how this could work. |
Thanks a bunch for the reply. I do understand that shuttle is convenient. But it might not be that useful, if you want to self-host. Especially since most of these Rust apps don't take a lot of resources, it is very easy to run them on your own infra at home or deploy them to a server in a data center. e.g. I run my own bare metal server in a DC, because I don't really trust cloud providers or web hosters (but that's another story ;-)). In the current state of the workshop one must use shuttle to deploy. It's not that one can deploy a shuttle app to their own infra. It's not that complicated to host it yourself. You copy over the binary, create a systemd unit file and maybe setup a reverse proxy. All this is done in less than 5 minutes. I will read up on the links you sent. Thanks again. |
Sorry for opening an issue for a question, but the discussions are not available for this repo.
This workshop is awesome. But I don't want to be locked into using shuttle. I just want to run it on my own server.
It is mentioned somewhere that this workshop was updated to use shuttle. However, I think that being able to run it on your own server is more imoprtant than requiring people to use a 3rd party service to deploy the app.
Is there any way that this workshop includes a separate chapter that explains how not to use shuttle?
