return a result from a request in rust

To return a result from an HTTP request in Rust, you need to construct an HTTP response that includes the desired result data. Here's an example of how to do this:


main.rs
use std::io::Write;
use hyper::{Body, Request, Response, Server};
use hyper::rt::Future;
use hyper::service::service_fn_ok;

fn main() {
    // Create a new HTTP server that listens on localhost:8080.
    let addr = ([127, 0, 0, 1], 8080).into();
    let server = Server::bind(&addr)
        .serve(|| service_fn_ok(handle_request))
        .map_err(|e| eprintln!("Server error: {}", e));

    // Start the server running.
    hyper::rt::run(server);
}

fn handle_request(req: Request<Body>) -> Response<Body> {
    // Return a response containing the string "Hello, world!".
    Response::builder()
        .header("Content-Type", "text/plain")
        .body(Body::from("Hello, world!"))
        .unwrap()
}
709 chars
24 lines

In this example, the handle_request function is used as the request handler for the HTTP server. It constructs an HTTP response using the Response::builder() method, sets the Content-Type header to text/plain, and includes the string "Hello, world!" as the response body. This response is then returned as the result of the HTTP request.

Note that in a real-world application, you would likely want to construct the response based on some data provided in the request, rather than hard-coding a fixed response like this.
