Configure build and start for Axum

Summary

Build and start for an Axum app on Ample. Verified on Axum: the app built and started with the documented commands and answered on its public HTTPS URL. Build and start: cargo build --release in the rust builder image (stable toolchain, Cargo.lock committed, pure-Rust dependencies), then the release binary on the ubuntu-24.04 template reading PORT and DATABASE_URL.

Prerequisites

• A Axum project (cargo build --release in the rust builder image (stable toolchain, Cargo.lock committed, pure-Rust dependencies), then the release binary on the ubuntu-24.04 template reading PORT and DATABASE_URL)
• An Ample account token with servers:write

Resource Requirements

• Primitive: Compute

Workflow Steps

1. Build and start
   cargo build --release in the rust builder image (stable toolchain, Cargo.lock committed, pure-Rust dependencies), then the release binary on the ubuntu-24.04 template reading PORT and DATABASE_URL; the server must bind 0.0.0.0 on PORT.
2. Deploy
   Run the synchronous deploy once and read the result.
   Command: ample deploy . --name --public
3. Verify
   Fetch the live URL on the example; on failure read the build and runtime logs.
   Command: ample logs --kind build

Examples

• Axum pattern fixture
  Verified build and start on Axum.
  Source Ref: tests/deploy-canaries/axum-patterns

Success Checks

• App responds on its public URL.
  Type: http_get
  Path: /
  Expect: ample canary axum patterns

Limitations

• Verified on the ubuntu-24.04 template at s-1vcpu-2gb; other sizes and Axum major versions are not verified.
• Region, compliance attestations and request-duration limits are unknown and not claimed.

Cost Estimate

• Currency: USD
• Monthly Amount: 5.0
• Basis: Size prices from pricing.toml (loaded by the API) at build revision 1ac5595375130d45290090e82ed0f554ccd45405-dirty
• Components:
  • Name: app server
    Size: s-1vcpu-1gb
    Quantity: 1.0
    Monthly Amount: 5.0
• Note: Always-on monthly price of the tested sizes; apps auto-pause when idle. Buckets are allocation-priced per quota and not included.

  Summary: Axum pattern fixture deployed on Ample (cargo build --release in the rust builder image (stable toolchain, Cargo.lock committed, pure-Rust dependencies), then the release binary on the ubuntu-24.04 template reading PORT and DATABASE_URL); for this guide: the app built and started with the documented commands and answered on its public HTTPS URL.
