Quickstart: Rust Actix app with FusionAuth

This repo holds an example Rust application that uses FusionAuth as the identity provider.

This repository is documented at https://fusionauth.io/docs/quickstarts/quickstart-rust-actix-web.

• Rust OAuth provider
• FusionAuth OAuth Docs

Project Contents

The docker-compose.yml file and the kickstart directory are used to start and configure a local FusionAuth server.

The complete-application directory contains a fully working version of the application.

Prerequisites

• Rust
• Docker version 20 or later.

Running FusionAuth

To run FusionAuth, just stand up the docker containers using docker-compose.

First clone the example repo and change into the project directory:

git clone https://github.com/FusionAuth/fusionauth-quickstart-rust-actix-web.git
cd fusionauth-quickstart-rust-actix-web

Start the containers with docker compose.

docker compose up

This will start three containers for PostgreSQL, Opensearch and FusionAuth.

FusionAuth will initially be configured with these settings:

• Your client id is: e9fdb985-9173-4e01-9d73-ac2d60d1dc8e
• Your client secret is: super-secret-secret-that-should-be-regenerated-for-production
• Your example username is [email protected] and your password is password.
• Your admin username is [email protected] and your password is password.
• Your fusionAuthBaseUrl is 'http://localhost:9011/'

You can log into the FusionAuth admin UI and look around if you want, but with Docker and Kickstart everything will already be configured correctly.

Running the Example Application

Run the Rust application with:

cd complete-application
cargo run

Browse to the app at http://localhost:9012 and login with [email protected] and password.
