Rust (Leptos + Trunk) HTTP Server

This guide shows how to deploy a Rust HTTP server using Trunk and Leptos on Unikraft Cloud. To run it, follow these steps:

1. Install the CLI. Use the unikraft CLI or the legacy kraft CLI. You need a BuildKit builder. The easiest way to get one is via Docker. Alternatively, you can also directly set up and use BuildKit, see the quick start.

2. Clone the examples repository and cd into the examples/httpserver-rust-trunkrs-leptos/ directory:

Code
git clone https://github.com/unikraft-cloud/examples
cd examples/httpserver-rust-trunkrs-leptos/

Make sure to log into Unikraft Cloud and pick a metro close to you. This guide uses fra (Frankfurt, 🇩🇪):

The output shows the instance address and other details:

In this case, the instance name is httpserver-rust-trunkrs-leptos-n2j7k and the address is https://cool-wind-by4hq7nm.fra.unikraft.app. They're different for each run.

The command will deploy files in the current directory.

After deploying, you can query the service using the provided URL.

To run locally:

Code
