rust

A guide for building server-side Rust applications that use Appwrite. Appwrite is a backend platform that provides services such as users, databases, file storage, and server functions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Creating async Rust services with Appwrite users, database tables and rows, file storage, function execution, permissions, queries, and error handling.
Why use it?
It provides the setup and code patterns needed to connect Rust programs to Appwrite without piecing together the client, authentication, and service calls yourself.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

rust scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Origin

This is a copy

97% identical to appwrite-rust — 2 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

Appwrite Rust SDK

Installation

cargo add appwrite
cargo add tokio --features full
cargo add serde_json

Or add dependencies manually:

[dependencies]
appwrite = "0.3.0"
tokio = { version = "1", features = ["full"] }
serde_json = "1"

Setting Up the Client

The Rust SDK is async. Use it from a Tokio runtime and authenticate server-side with an API key.

use appwrite::Client;
use std::env;

let client = Client::new()
    .set_endpoint("https://<REGION>.cloud.appwrite.io/v1")
    .set_project(env::var("APPWRITE_PROJECT_ID")?)
    .set_key(env::var("APPWRITE_API_KEY")?);

Complete server skeleton

use appwrite::query::Query;
use appwrite::services::Users;
use appwrite::Client;
use std::env;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    let client = Client::new()
        .set_endpoint("https://<REGION>.cloud.appwrite.io/v1")
        .set_project(env::var("APPWRITE_PROJECT_ID")?)
        .set_key(env::var("APPWRITE_API_KEY")?);

    let users = Users::new(&client);
    let _list = users
        .list(Some(vec![Query::limit(25).to_string()]), None, Some(true))
        .await?;

    Ok(())
}

Code Examples

User Management

use appwrite::id::ID;
use appwrite::query::Query;
use appwrite::services::Users;

let users = Users::new(&client);

// Create user
let _user = users
    .create(
        ID::unique(),
        Some("[email protected]"),
        None,
        Some("password123"),
        Some("User Name"),
    )
    .await?;

// List users
let _list = users
    .list(Some(vec![Query::limit(25).to_string()]), None, Some(true))
    .await?;

// Get user
let _fetched = users.get("[USER_ID]").await?;

// Delete user
users.delete("[USER_ID]").await?;

Database Operations

Note: Use TablesDB for new code. Only use Databases if the existing project explicitly depends on the legacy Databases API.

Rust SDK calling convention: Methods are async, use positional parameters, and represent optional API parameters as Option<T>. Pass None for optional values you are not setting.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

rust is a skill published in the GitHub repository appwrite/claude-plugin (10 stars, last pushed 13d ago), licensed BSD-3-Clause. It adds 64 tokens to every session and 2,676 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 97% identical to appwrite-rust, differing in 2 lines, and is treated as a copy.
