Rust-centric polyglot HTTP framework with OpenAPI/AsyncAPI/GraphQL/JSON-RPC codegen, tower-http middleware, and fixture-driven cross-language testing. Dart bindings via flutter_rust_bridge with isolate-safe Future/Stream APIs.

What This Package Provides

  • HTTP application core — typed routing, request data extraction, validation, lifecycle hooks, and Tower middleware from the Rust engine.
  • Spec-driven work — OpenAPI, AsyncAPI, GraphQL SDL, JSON-RPC, and SQL-to-HTTP codegen are shared across bindings.
  • Cross-language parity — generated bindings use the same DTOs, fixtures, and error model, so behavior does not drift between runtimes.
  • Native integration — no sidecar server required; each package calls the Rust core through its language-native bridge.
  • Dart package — Future/Stream API through flutter_rust_bridge.

Installation

dart pub add spikard

System Requirements

  • Dart 3.0+ required

Quick Start

See the spikard repository for usage examples and guides.

Features

  • HTTP routing — type-safe route definitions with path, query, and body parameter validation
  • OpenAPI / AsyncAPI / GraphQL / JSON-RPC — code generation and spec parsing built in
  • Tower middleware — compression, rate limiting, timeouts, auth (JWT/API key), static files
  • Lifecycle hooks — onRequest, preValidation, preHandler, onResponse, onError
  • Fixture-driven testing — shared JSON fixtures drive tests across all language bindings
  • Polyglot — single Rust core, thin bindings for Python, Node.js, Ruby, PHP, Elixir, Go, Java, C#, Kotlin, Dart, Gleam, WASM, Swift, Zig, and C FFI
