v0.6.0-beta

[gbj]

This is a breaking for our new server functions rewrite and Axum 0.7 support.

This should be a relatively feature-rich release, with limited breaking changes.

I'm interested in gathering feedback in the discussion associated with this release.

Migration

Actix

• You can remove any explicit .handle_server_fns() call in your main.rs, as server functions are now handled in .leptos_routes()

Axum

• This release supports Axum 0.7, so you'll need to migrate from Axum 0.6. The easiest way to do this is probably to consult the diff on one of the examples.
• You can remove any explicit .handle_server_fns() call in your main.rs, as server functions are now handled in .leptos_routes()

Features

A rewritten server function system that is backwards-compatible, but reduces binary size and increases flexibility, specifically by allowing

• automatic setup of server fn handlers with .leptos_routes() from the integrations
• a variety of additional built-in encodings (rkyv, multipart forms/file uploads) in addition to the current set (GET URL, POST URL, CBOR, Rkyv) (MultiPart Server Functions #1868, Server functions inconsistent withrkyv feature on leptos crate #1989)
• support for streaming responses from server functions (Allow for a streaming value with #server. #1284)
• ability to create custom user encodings for input and output by deriving IntoReq, FromReq, IntoRes, and/or FromRes traits
• ability to mix and match encodings easily: This server function should be a JSON POST request and a ByteStream response, this one should be GET URL request and an rkyv response, etc.; any combination of the encodings above is supported
• custom error types (User defined errors from server function #1657)
• a #[middleware] macro to add per-server-function middleware from the Tower or Actix ecosystems (Add #[middleware] tag to allow the selective targeting of Tower services on Server Fns #1461)

Note: The additional included encodings (serde_lite, rkyv, multipart form data) are all enabled by additive features on the server_fn crate. If you want to use them you can just add that crate as a dependency and enable the required features.

Example: You can find a comprehensive example of these new features in the new server_fns_axum example.

Just FYI, I also needed to update my rust nightly
