Motivation
Closes: #2937
Solution
Add
axum_extra::json!
, a macro that forwards totyped_json::json!
to produce an ad-hoc JSON response with zero allocations.I chose to put this in
axum-extra
rather than core Axum for two reasons:typed-json
. It’s a lightweight dependency and not exposed in the public API, but a dependency nonetheless.json!
to return anErasedJson
. UsingJson<impl Serialize>
isn’t ideal because if thejson!
macro borrows data, the type can’t be returned from a function. UsingResponse
directly isn’t ideal because we loseClone
.I had to modify a couple lines in the
Cargo.toml
ofaxum-extra
in order to get the tests to compile on my machine – just enabling some feature flags.
