axum-impl-deployment

What problem does it solve?

This skill prevents dropped in-flight requests and broken deployments by showing how to run Axum in production with a release build, production-ready Docker images, and a SIGTERM-aware graceful shutdown sequence.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Production-grade graceful shutdown: Wires axum::serve(...).with_graceful_shutdown(...) to drain connections on SIGTERM/SIGINT so orchestrator restarts don’t kill active requests.
• Bounded draining and resource cleanup: Pairs shutdown with TimeoutLayer to avoid indefinite drains, and closes the sqlx pool after serve returns.
• Lean container builds: Provides multi-stage Docker patterns (including cargo-chef caching), static musl builds, and container hygiene (non-root user, bind 0.0.0.0).

Quick Start

Ask the skill to generate a complete main.rs and Dockerfile for an Axum 0.8 service that uses SIGTERM graceful shutdown, a TimeoutLayer drain cap, and a multi-stage build that outputs a minimal runtime image.
