# Rust Client Workspace
|
|
|
|
The Rust client workspace contains the MXAccess Gateway client library, a
|
|
test CLI, and tests for generated contract wiring plus wrapper behavior. The
|
|
library uses
|
|
the shared protobuf inputs documented in
|
|
`../../docs/client-proto-generation.md` so the Rust bindings compile against
|
|
the same public gateway and worker contracts as the server.
|
|
|
|
## Layout
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
clients/rust/
|
|
Cargo.toml
|
|
build.rs
|
|
src/
|
|
tests/
|
|
crates/mxgw-cli/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`build.rs` reads the `.proto` files from
|
|
`../../src/MxGateway.Contracts/Protos` and generates `tonic`/`prost` bindings
|
|
into Cargo build output. `src/generated.rs` declares the Rust modules that
|
|
include those generated files. `src/generated` remains reserved for checked-in
|
|
generator output if the crate later changes to source-tree generation.
|
|
|
|
## Build And Test
|
|
|
|
Run the Rust workspace checks from `clients/rust`:
|
|
|
|
```powershell
|
|
cargo fmt --all --check
|
|
cargo test --workspace
|
|
cargo check --workspace
|
|
cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The build script uses `protoc` from `PATH` or the Windows path recorded in
|
|
`../../docs/toolchain-links.md`.
|
|
|
|
## CLI
|
|
|
|
The CLI exposes version, session, command, event stream, write, and smoke
|
|
commands over the same client wrapper used by tests:
|
|
|
|
```powershell
|
|
cargo run -p mxgw-cli -- version --json
|
|
cargo run -p mxgw-cli -- open-session --endpoint http://localhost:5000 --api-key-env MXGATEWAY_API_KEY --json
|
|
cargo run -p mxgw-cli -- register --session-id <session-id> --client-name mxgw-rust-cli --json
|
|
cargo run -p mxgw-cli -- add-item --session-id <session-id> --server-handle 1 --item TestChildObject.TestInt --json
|
|
cargo run -p mxgw-cli -- advise --session-id <session-id> --server-handle 1 --item-handle 1 --json
|
|
cargo run -p mxgw-cli -- stream-events --session-id <session-id> --max-events 1 --json
|
|
cargo run -p mxgw-cli -- write --session-id <session-id> --server-handle 1 --item-handle 1 --value-type int32 --value 123 --json
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Use `--tls`, `--ca-file`, and `--server-name-override` for TLS endpoints. The
|
|
CLI reads the API key from `--api-key` or from `--api-key-env`, which defaults
|
|
to `MXGATEWAY_API_KEY`. API keys are redacted by the library option and secret
|
|
types.
|
|
|
|
## Library Surface
|
|
|
|
`ClientOptions` configures endpoint, API key, plaintext or TLS transport,
|
|
timeouts, custom CA files, and server name override. `GatewayClient::connect`
|
|
creates an authenticated `tonic` client and attaches `authorization: Bearer
|
|
<api-key>` metadata to unary and streaming calls.
|
|
|
|
`GatewayClient` exposes raw generated calls through `open_session_raw`,
|
|
`close_session_raw`, `invoke_raw`, `stream_events`, and `raw_client`. The
|
|
session helpers keep MXAccess handles visible:
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
let session = client.open_session(request).await?;
|
|
let server_handle = session.register("mxgw-rust").await?;
|
|
let item_handle = session.add_item(server_handle, "TestChildObject.TestInt").await?;
|
|
session.advise(server_handle, item_handle).await?;
|
|
let mut events = session.events().await?;
|
|
session.close().await?;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`MxValue`, `MxArrayValue`, and `MxStatus` wrap generated protobuf messages while
|
|
preserving the raw message for parity diagnostics. Command replies whose
|
|
protocol status is not `PROTOCOL_STATUS_CODE_OK` become `Error::Command` and
|
|
retain the raw `MxCommandReply`.
