• Image and text overlays
• Rotations
• Recognition
• File info
• Proxy (fetch)

Security features:

• Secure authentication
• Secure uploads (signed uploads)

Requirements

• rustc 1.43
• cargo 1.43

Installation

Ensure you have Cargo, the Rust dependency manager, installed on your system. If not, follow the installation instructions.

Open your cargo.toml file and add the following code:

1
[dependencies]
2
uploadcare = "^0.1"

Configuration

By default the full is enabled (REST and Upload API).

To reduce the code size, disable default features and enable just the APIs you use:

1
# Example: REST API only
2
uploadcare = { version = "*", default-features = false, features = ["rest"] }

Creating a client:

1
use ucare;
2
use ucare::file;
3
use ucare::upload;
4
5
let creds = ucare::apicreds {
6
    pub_key: "YOUR_PUBLIC_KEY",
7
    secret_key: "YOUR_SECRET_KEY",
8
};
9
10
// creating rest client
11
let config = ucare::RestConfig {
12
    sign_based_auth: true,
13
    api_version: ucare::RestApiVersion::v06,
14
};
15
let rest_client = ucare::RestClient::new(config, creds).unwrap();
16
17
// creating upload client
18
let config = ucare::UploadConfig {
19
    sign_based_upload: true,
20
};
21
let upload_client = ucare::UploadClient::new(config, creds).unwrap();

Usage example

For a comprehensive list of examples, check out the API documentation. Below are a few usage examples:

1
let file_svc = file::new_svc(&rest_client);
2
3
let file_id = "b7c1bf20-0f4c-4ba4-b3a8-a74ebc663752";
4
let file_info = file_svc.info(file_id).unwrap();
5
println!("{}: {:?}", file_id, file_info);
6
7
let upload_svc = upload::new_svc(&upload_client);
8
9
let params = upload::FileParams {
10
    path: "/path/to/file".to_string(),
11
    name: "filename".to_string(),
12
    to_store: Some(upload::ToStore::Auto),
13
};
14
let file = upload_svc.file(params).unwrap();
15
println!("uploaded: {:?}", file.id);
