- Added automatic updating of
updated_at
on change #962 - fixed codegen injection point in migrations #952
NOTE: update your migration listing module like so:
// migrations/src/lib.rs
vec![
Box::new(m20220101_000001_users::Migration),
Box::new(m20231103_114510_notes::Migration),

Box::new(m20240416_082115_users_roles::Migration),
// inject-above (do not remove this comment)
]
Add the comment just before the closing array (inject-above
)
- Added ability to name references in #955:
$ generate scaffold posts title:string! content:string! written_by:references:users approved_by:references:users
- Added hot-reload like experience to Tera templates #977, in debug builds only.
NOTE: update your initializers after_routes
like so:
// src/initializers/view_engine.rs
async fn after_routes(&self, router: AxumRouter, _ctx: &AppContext) -> Result<AxumRouter> {
#[allow(unused_mut)]
let mut tera_engine = engines::TeraView::build()?;

loco doctor
now checks for app-specific minimum dependency versions. This should help in upgrades.doctor
also supports "production only" checks which you can run in production withloco doctor --production
. This, for example, will check your connections but will not check dependencies. #931- Use a single loco-rs dep for a whole project. #927
- chore: fix generated testcase. #939
- chore: Correct cargo test message. #938
- Add relevant meta tags for better defaults. #943
- Update cli message with correct command. #942
- remove lazy_static. #941
- change update HTTP verb semantics to put+patch. #919
- Fixed HTML scaffold error. #960
- Scaffolded HTML update method should be POST. #963
This release have been primarily about cleanups and simplification.
Please update:
loco-rs
loco-cli
Changes:
- generators (BREAKING): all prefixes in starters (e.g.
/api
) are now local to each controller, and generators will be prefix-aware (--api
generator will add an/api
prefix to controllers) #818
To migrate, please move prefixes from app.rs
to each controller you use in controllers/
, for example in notes
controller:
Routes::new()
.prefix("api/notes")
.add("/", get(list))
-
starters: removed
.devcontainer
which can now be found in loco-devcontainer -
starters: removed example
notes
scaffold (model, controllers, etc), and unifieduser
andauth
into a single file:auth.rs
-
generators:
scaffold
generator will now generate a CRUD withPUT
andPATCH
semantics for updating an entity #896 -
cleanup:
loco-extras
was moved out of the repo, but we've incorporatedMultiDB
andExtraDB
fromextras
intoloco-rs
#917 -
cargo loco doctor
now checks for minimal required SeaORM CLI version -
BREAKING Improved migration generator. If you have an existing migration project, add the following comment indicator to the top of the
vec
statement and right below the opening bracked like so inmigration/src/lib.rs
:
fn migrations() -> Vec<Box<dyn MigrationTrait>> {
vec![
// inject-below (do not remove this comment)

Format(respond_to): Format
extractor in controller can now be replaced withrespond_to: RespondTo
extractor for less typing.- When supplying data to views, you can now use
data!
instead ofserde_json::json!
for shorthand. - Refactor middlewares. #785. Middleware selection, configuration, and tweaking is MUCH more powerful and convenient now. You can keep the
middleware:
section empty or remove it now, see more in the middleware docs - NEW (BREAKING) background worker subsystem is now queue agnostic. Providing for both Redis and Postgres with a change of configuration. This means you can now use a full-Postgres stack to remove Redis as a dependency if you wish. Here are steps to migrate your codebase:
// in your app.rs, change the worker registration code:
// BEFORE
fn connect_workers<'a>(p: &'a mut Processor, ctx: &'a AppContext) {
p.register(DownloadWorker::build(ctx));
}
// AFTER
async fn connect_workers(ctx: &AppContext, queue: &Queue) -> Result<()>{
queue.register(DownloadWorker::build(ctx)).await?;
Ok(())
}
// in your app.rs, replace the `worker` module references.
// REMOVE
worker::{AppWorker, Processor},
// REPLACE WITH
bgworker::{BackgroundWorker, Queue},
// in your workers change the signature, and add the `build` function
// BEFORE
impl worker::Worker<DownloadWorkerArgs> for DownloadWorker {
async fn perform(&self, args: DownloadWorkerArgs) -> worker::Result<()> {
// AFTER
#[async_trait]
impl BackgroundWorker<DownloadWorkerArgs> for DownloadWorker {
fn build(ctx: &AppContext) -> Self {
Self { ctx: ctx.clone() }
}
async fn perform(&self, args: DownloadWorkerArgs) -> Result<()> {
// Finally, remove the `AppWorker` trait implementation completely.
// REMOVE
impl worker::AppWorker<DownloadWorkerArgs> for DownloadWorker {
fn build(ctx: &AppContext) -> Self {
Self { ctx: ctx.clone() }
}
}
Finally, update your development.yaml
and test.yaml
with a kind
:
queue:
kind: Redis # add this to the existing `queue` section
- UPGRADED (BREAKING):
validator
crate was upgraded which require some small tweaks to work with the new API:
// BEFORE:
#[validate(custom = "validation::is_valid_email")]
pub email: String,
// AFTER:
#[validate(custom (function = "validation::is_valid_email"))]
pub email: String,
Then update your Cargo.toml
to take version 0.18
:
# update
validator = { version = "0.18" }
- UPGRADED (BREAKING):
axum-test
crate was upgraded Update yourCargo.toml
to version16
:
# update
axum-test = { version = "16" }
- Add fallback behavior. #732
- Add Scheduler Feature for Running Cron Jobs. #735
- Add
--html
,--htmx
and--api
flags to scaffold CLI command. #749 - Add base template for scaffold generation. #752
- Connect Redis only when the worker is BackgroundQueue. #755
- Add loco doctor --config. #736
- Rename demo: blo -> demo_app. #741
- fix: introduce secondary binary for compile-and-run on Windows. #727
- Added: loco-cli (
loco new
) now receives options from CLI and/or interactively asks for configuration options such as which asset pipeline, background worker type, or database provider to use. - Fix: custom queue names now merge with default queues.
- Added
remote_ip
middleware for resolving client remote IP when under a proxy or loadbalancer, similar to the Railsremote_ip
middleware. - Added
secure_headers
middleware for setting secure headers by default, similar to how https://github.com/github/secure_headers works. This is now ON by default to promote security-by-default. - Added:
money
,blob
types to entitie generator.
- Moving to timezone aware timestamps. From now on migrations will generate timestamps with time zone by default. Moving to TZ aware timestamps in combination with newly revamped timestamp code generation in SeaORM v1.0.0 finally allows for seamlessly moving between using
sqlite
andpostgres
with minimal or no entities code changes (resolved this long standing issue). TZ aware timestamps also aligns us with how Rails works today (initially Rails had a no-tz timestamps, and today the default is to use timestamps). If not specified the TZ is the server TZ, which is usually UTC, therefore semantically this is almost like a no-tz timestamp.
A few highlights:
Generated entities will now always use DateTimeWithTimeZone
for the default timestamp fields:
...
Generating users.rs
> Column `created_at`: DateTimeWithTimeZone, not_null
> Column `updated_at`: DateTimeWithTimeZone, not_null
...
For better cross database provider compatibility, from now on prefer the tstz
type instead of just ts
when using generators (i.e. cargo loco generate model movie released:tstz
)
-
remove eyer lib. #650
- Update the Main Function in src/bin/main
Replace the return type of the main function: **Before:** ```rust async fn main() -> eyre::Result<()> ``` **After:** ```rust async fn main() -> loco_rs::Result<()> ```
-
Modify examples/playground.rs You need to apply two changes here:
a. Update the Function Signature Before:
async fn main() -> eyre::Result<()>
After:
async fn main() -> loco_rs::Result<()>
b. Adjust the Context Handling Before:
let _ctx = playground::<App>().await.context("playground")?;
After:
let _ctx = playground::<App>().await?;
Note, If you are using eyre in your project, you can continue to do so. We have only removed this crate from our base code dependencies.

withmodel::query
. - Replaced
model::query::exec::paginate
withmodel::query::paginate

struct. Refer to its usage example here.
- Replaced
- Breaking changes When introducing the Cache system which is much more flexible than having just Redis, we now call the 'redis' member simply a 'queue' which indicates it should be used only for the internal queue and not as a general purpose cache. In the application configuration setting
redis
, change toqueue
. #590
# before:
redis:
# after:
queue:
- Breaking changes We have made a few parts of the context pluggable, such as the
storage
and newcache
subsystems, this is why we decided to let you configure the context entirely before starting up your app. As a result, if you have a storage building hook code it should move toafter_context
, see example here. #570
- Refactored model validation for better developer experience. Added a few traits and structs to
loco::prelude
for a smoother import story. IntroducingValidatable
:
impl Validatable for super::_entities::users::ActiveModel {
fn validator(&self) -> Box<dyn Validate> {
Box::new(Validator {
name: self.name.as_ref().to_owned(),
email: self.email.as_ref().to_owned(),
})
}
}
// now you can call `user.validate()` freely
-
Refactored type field mapping to be centralized. Now model, scaffold share the same field mapping, so no more gaps like #513 (e.g. when calling
loco generate model title:string
the ability to mapstring
into something useful in the code generation side) NOTE the_integer
class of types are now just_int
, e.g.big_int
, so that it correlate with theint
field name in a better way -
Adding to to quiery dsl
is_in
andis_not_in
. #507 -
Added: in your configuration you can now use an
initializers:
section for initializer specific settings# Initializers Configuration initializers: # oauth2: # authorization_code: # Authorization code grant type # - client_identifier: google # Identifier for the OAuth2 provider. Replace 'google' with your provider's name if different, must be unique within the oauth2 config. # ... other fields
-
Docs: fix schema data types mapping. #506
-
Let Result accept other errors. #505
-
Allow trailing slashes in URIs by adding the NormalizePathLayer. #481
-
BREAKING Move from
Result<impl IntoResponse>
toResult<Response>
. This enables much greater flexibility building APIs, where withResult<Response>
you mix and match response types based on custom logic (returning JSON and HTML/String in the same route). -
Added: mime responders similar to
respond_to
in Rails:
- Use the
Format
extractor - Match on
respond_to
- Create different content for different response formats
The following route will always return JSON, unless explicitly asked for HTML with a
Content-Type: text/html
(or Accept:
) header:
pub async fn get_one(
Format(respond_to): Format,
Path(id): Path<i32>,
State(ctx): State<AppContext>,
) -> Result<Response> {
let item = load_item(&ctx, id).await?;
match respond_to {
RespondTo::Html => format::html(&format!("<html><body>{:?}</body></html>", item.title)),
_ => format::json(item),
}
}

-
See #217 Now when you generate a
saas starter
orrest api
starter you will get additional authentication methods for free: -
Added: authentication added -- api authentication where each user has an API token in the schema, and you can authenticate with
Bearer
against that user. -
Added: authentication added --
JWTWithUser
extractor, which is a convenience for resolving the authenticated JWT claims into a current user from database
migrating an existing codebase
Add the following to your generated src/models/user.rs
:
#[async_trait]
impl Authenticable for super::_entities::users::Model {
async fn find_by_api_key(db: &DatabaseConnection, api_key: &str) -> ModelResult<Self> {
let user = users::Entity::find()
.filter(users::Column::ApiKey.eq(api_key))
.one(db)
.await?;
user.ok_or_else(|| ModelError::EntityNotFound)
}
async fn find_by_claims_key(db: &DatabaseConnection, claims_key: &str) -> ModelResult<Self> {
super::_entities::users::Model::find_by_pid(db, claims_key).await
}
}
Update imports in this file to include model::Authenticable
:
use loco_rs::{
auth, hash,
model::{Authenticable, ModelError, ModelResult},
validation,
validator::Validate,
};
- Added:
loco version
for getting an operable version string containing logical crate version and git SHA if available:0.3.0 (<git sha>)
To migrate to this behavior from earlier versions, it requires adding the following to your app.rs
app hooks:
fn app_version() -> String {
format!(
"{} ({})",
env!("CARGO_PKG_VERSION"),
option_env!("BUILD_SHA")
.or(option_env!("GITHUB_SHA"))
.unwrap_or("dev")
)
}
Reminder: loco --version
will give you the current Loco framework which your app was built against and loco version
gives you your app version.
- Added:
loco generate migration
for adding ad-hoc migrations - Added: added support in model generator for many-to-many link table generation via
loco generate model --link
- Docs: added Migration section, added relations documentation 1:M, M:M
- Adding .devcontainer to starter projects #170
- Braking changes: Adding
Hooks::boot
application. Migration steps:// Load boot::{create_app, BootResult, StartMode} from loco_rs lib // Load migration: use migration::Migrator; Only when using DB // Adding boot hook with the following code impl Hooks for App { ... async fn boot(mode: StartMode, environment: &str) -> Result<BootResult> { // With DB: create_app::<Self, Migrator>(mode, environment).await // Without DB: create_app::<Self>(mode, environment).await } ... }
- Added pretty backtraces #41
- adding tests for note requests #156
- Define the min rust version the loco can run #164

cli command for validate and diagnose configurations. #145 - Added ability to specify
settings:
in config files, which are available in context - Adding compilation mode in the banner. #127
- Support shuttle deployment generator. #124
- Adding a static asset middleware which allows to serve static folder/data. Enable this section in config. #134
static: enable: true # ensure that both the folder.path and fallback file path are existence. must_exist: true folder: uri: "/assets" path: "frontend/dist" fallback: "frontend/dist/index.html"
- fix:
loco generate request
test template. #133 - Improve docker deployment generator. #131
- refactor: local settings are now
<env>.local.yaml
and available for all environments, for example you can add a localtest.local.yaml
anddevelopment.local.yaml
- refactor: removed
config-rs
and now doing config loading by ourselves. - fix: email template rendering will not escape URLs
- Config with variables: It is now possible to use tera templates in config YAML files
Example of pulling a port from environment:
server:
port: {{ get_env(name="NODE_PORT", default=5150) }}
It is possible to use any tera
templating constructs such as loops, conditionals, etc. inside YAML configuration files.
-
Mailer: expose
stub
