I'm attempting to insert data into a PostgreSQL
database using sqlx::query!
macro in Rust. However, I'm encountering a compilation error related to the uuid::Uuid
type not satisfying the Encode trait.
Error Message:
the trait bound
uuid::Uuid: Encode<'_, Postgres>
is not satisfied
Code Snippet:
use actix_web::{web, HttpResponse};
use sqlx::PgPool;
use uuid::Uuid;
use chrono::Utc;
pub async fn subscribe(form: web::Form<FormData>, connection: web::Data<PgPool>) -> HttpResponse {
sqlx::query!(
r#"
INSERT INTO subscriptions (id, email, name, subscribed_at)
VALUES ($1, $2, $3, $4)
"#,
Uuid::new_v4(),
form.email,
form.name,
Utc::now()
)
.execute(connection.get_ref())
.await;
HttpResponse::Ok().finish()
}
Cargo.toml Dependencies:
[dependencies]
actix-web = "4.4.0"
sqlx = { version = "0.7", default-features = false, features = ["runtime-tokio-rustls", "macros", "postgres", "uuid", "chrono"] }
uuid = { version = "0.8.1", features = ["v4", "serde"] }
chrono = "0.4.15"
Attempts to Solve:
What could be causing this trait bound issue and how can I resolve it? Is there a version mismatch, or am I missing a necessary feature activation?
Update
I update the codes with this codes but still show me error :
use actix_web::{web, HttpResponse};
use chrono::Utc;
use sqlx::types::Uuid;
use sqlx::PgPool;
#[derive(serde::Deserialize)]
pub struct FormData {
email: String,
name: String,
}
pub async fn subscribe(form: web::Form<FormData>, connection: web::Data<PgPool>) -> HttpResponse {
let my_uuid = Uuid::parse_str("a1a2a3a4b1b2c1c2d1d2d3d4d5d6d7d8")?;
sqlx::query!(
r#"
INSERT INTO subscriptions (id, email, name, subscribed_at)
VALUES ($1, $2, $3, $4)
"#,
my_uuid,
form.email,
form.name,
Utc::now()
)
// We use `get_ref` to get an immutable reference to the `PgConnection`
// wrapped by `web::Data`.
.execute(connection.get_ref())
.await;
HttpResponse::Ok().finish()
}
it shows me this error :
let my_uuid = Uuid::parse_str("a1a2a3a4b1b2c1c2d1d2d3d4d5d6d7d8")?;
the
?
operator can only be used in an async function that returnsResult
orOption
(or another type that implementsFromResidual
) the traitFromResidual<Result<Infallible, sqlx::types::uuid::Error>>
is not implemented forHttpResponse
sqlx doesn't know how to serialize a Uuid
but it knows how to serialize a String
, so you can convert the Uuid
to String
using the to_string
method on Uuid
:
pub async fn subscribe(form: web::Form<FormData>, connection: web::Data<PgPool>) -> HttpResponse {
sqlx::query!(
r#"
INSERT INTO subscriptions (id, email, name, subscribed_at)
VALUES ($1, $2, $3, $4)
"#,
// Here we use the `to_string` method on `Uuid`
Uuid::new_v4().to_string(),
form.email,
form.name,
Utc::now()
)
.execute(connection.get_ref())
.await;
HttpResponse::Ok().finish()
}
In the updated version of your code, you are parsing a String
into an Uuid
which may fail, that's why the Uuid::parse
method returns a Result
, you can either unwrap it (if you are sure that it's a valid Uuid) or handle the error like so:
pub async fn subscribe(form: web::Form<FormData>, connection: web::Data<PgPool>) -> HttpResponse {
// unwrap it
let my_uuid = Uuid::parse_str("a1a2a3a4b1b2c1c2d1d2d3d4d5d6d7d8").unwrap();
// or, handle the error
let my_uuid = match Uuid::parse_str("a1a2a3a4b1b2c1c2d1d2d3d4d5d6d7d8") {
Ok(uuid) => uuid,
Err(err) => {
return HttpResponse::BadRequest().body("Invalid uuid");
}
};
sqlx::query!(
r#"
INSERT INTO subscriptions (id, email, name, subscribed_at)
VALUES ($1, $2, $3, $4)
"#,
// We have to convert `Uuid` to `String`
my_uuid.to_string(),
form.email,
form.name,
Utc::now()
)
.execute(connection.get_ref())
.await;
HttpResponse::Ok().finish()
}
