Rust fileserver example (standalone)

This is an example of using spin-fileserver as a separate component in a Spin application. In other words, this example demonstrates standalone use of this component as opposed to the composition approaches demonstrated in the rust, javascript and pythong examples.

Prerequisites

• Spin v2.0+
• Rust, including the wasm32-wasi target
• curl or a web browser for testing

Once you have Rust installed, the following should give you everything else:

rustup target add wasm32-wasi

Building and Running

To build and run the example, run:

spin build -u

Then, in another terminal, you can test it using curl:

curl -i http://127.0.0.1:3000/hello

The above should return a response body Hello, world!, served up by the example app itself. All other URIs are handled by spin-fileserver, e.g.:

curl -i http://127.0.0.1:3000/foo.txt

curl -i http://127.0.0.1:3000/nonexistent.txt
