coral kraken
I'm looking at the documentation and I cannot figure out how to get this to run
pub fn router() -> Router {
Router::new()
.route("/", get(list_rooms))
.route("/", post(create_room))
.route("/:slug", get(room))
.route("/:id/keys", get(stream_keys))
}
it gives me Invalid route "/:id/keys": insertion failed due to conflict with previously registered route: /:slug
How do I solve it?

It is not possible to create segments that only match some types like numbers or regular expression. You must handle that manually in your handlers.
from the docs
if that's what you were going for
coral kraken
Not really one of my routes takes a string through Path and the other takes i32
spiral sentinel
yeah so it is what you were going for
coral kraken
Well why does it work fine if they're both named the same, then? I didn't change that logic
spiral sentinel
because one has more segments
coral kraken
the first handler still takes a string, the second takes an i32
but somehow it can't understand that if they're not named the same
which makes no sense to me
spiral sentinel
probably the axum developers wanted paths to be consistent, and /foo/123 and /foo/what-ever/keys looks like one should be a "subpath" of the other, but they're doing completely different things
I would also be confused by such an api
coral kraken
Interesting. I mean at the end of the day it doesn't really matter if they're named the same, but I think it's strange
In fact, when I first encountered this I thought it was a bug
spiral sentinel
what I mean is that you shouldn't design your api like that
coral kraken
Then how should I design it? You can get a room by its slug, and then for subroutes you pass the room id
spiral sentinel
if /123 gets a room, then /123/keys should be an operation on that room
coral kraken
it is
spiral sentinel
uhh
coral kraken
it gets the keys of that room
spiral sentinel
Then how should I design it? You can get a room by its slug, and then for subrou...
why?
coral kraken
you mean a route called /room-id?
spiral sentinel
yes
coral kraken
I don't really like that
