Following up with the Rusty Box: Creating a Rust client for a hackathon, we have released a crate with an initial implementation of the users API end points.

You can find the crate here.


You can follow up and participate in this open source project at this GitHub repo.


If you want to try it:


Create a new rust project


cargo new my-box-project
cd my-box-project

Add rusty-box to your dependencies


cargo add dotenv
cargo add rusty-box

Create a .dev.env file in the root of your project


DEVELOPER_TOKEN=YOUR_DEVELOPER_TOKEN

Open your main.rs file and add the following code


use rusty_box::{
auth::{auth_developer::DeveloperToken, AuthError},
box_client::BoxClient,
config::Config,
rest_api::users::users_api,
};
use std::env;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), AuthError> {
dotenv::from_filename(".dev.env").ok();

let config = Config::new();
let auth = DeveloperToken::new(
config,
env::var("DEVELOPER_TOKEN").expect("DEVELOPER_TOKEN must be set"),
);

let mut client = BoxClient::new(Box::new(auth.clone()));

let fields = vec![];

let me = users_api::me(&mut client, Some(fields)).await?;
println!("Me:\n{me:#?}\n");

Ok(())
}

Run your project


cargo run

Have fun!
