Following are the recommended projects for implementing Rust Applications for YugabyteDB YSQL API.

Build a Hello World app

Learn how to establish a connection to YugabyteDB database and begin basic CRUD operations using the steps in Build an Application in the Quick Start section.

Prerequisites for building a Rust application

Install Rust

Make sure that your system has Rust installed. You can find installation instructions on the Rust site. To check the version of Rust installed, use the following command:

$ rustc --version

Create a Rust project

To create a new Rust project, run the following command:

$ cargo new HelloWorld-rust

This creates the project as HelloWorld-rust which consists of a Cargo.toml file (this contains the project metadata) and a src directory containing the main code file, main.rs.

To run the Rust project, execute the following command in the project directory:

$ cargo run

Create a YugabyteDB cluster

Create a free cluster on YugabyteDB Managed. Refer to Create a free cluster.

You can also set up a standalone YugabyteDB cluster by following the steps in Install YugabyteDB.

Usage examples

For fully runnable code snippets and explanations of common operations, see the specific Rust driver and ORM section. The following table provides links to driver-specific documentation and examples.
