I am trying to make a basic web application with the rust language, using the actix framework and r2d2 with mongodb as the database. I could not find any complete and working documentation on how to archive this. Maybe someone can help me out here.
The problem is, that i can't seem to get a mongodb connection from the r2d2 connection pool. Sadly this part isnt covered in any documentation i found.
Some links i found:
This part creates the connection pool and hands it to actix.
fn main() {
std::env::set_var("RUST_LOG", "actix_web=info");
env_logger::init();
let manager = MongodbConnectionManager::new(
ConnectionOptions::builder()
.with_host("localhost", 27017)
.with_db("mydatabase")
.build()
);
let pool = Pool::builder()
.max_size(16)
.build(manager)
.unwrap();
HttpServer::new( move || {
App::new()
// enable logger
.wrap(middleware::Logger::default())
// store db pool in app state
.data(pool.clone())
// register simple handler, handle all methods
.route("/view/{id}", web::get().to(view))
})
.bind("127.0.0.1:8080")
.expect("Can not bind to port 8080")
.run()
.unwrap();
}
This is the handler function trying to access the connection pool
fn view(req: HttpRequest,
pool: web::Data<Pool<MongodbConnectionManager>>) -> impl Responder {
let id = req.match_info().get("id").unwrap_or("unknown");
let conn = pool.get().unwrap();
let result = conn.collections("content").findOne(None, None).unwrap();
// HERE BE CODE ...
format!("Requested id: {}", &id)
}
This is the error showing my problem. The conn variable doesnt seem to be a propper mongodb connection.
error[E0599]: no method named `collections` found for type `std::result::Result<r2d2::PooledConnection<r2d2_mongodb::MongodbConnectionManager>, r2d2::Error>` in the current scope --> src\main.rs:29:23

29 | let result = conn.collections("content").findOne(None, None).unwrap();

10 | let coll = conn.collection("simulations");
| ^^^^^^^^^^

= help: items from traits can only be used if the trait is in scope
= note: the following trait is implemented but not in scope, perhaps add a `use` for it:
`use crate::mongodb::db::ThreadedDatabase;`
my compiler told me to add mongodb::db::ThreadedDatabase
in scope.
