Why spikard ----------- [](#why-spikard) CapabilityDetails**Type-safe across bindings**HTTP routing with path, query, body, and header validation. Errors convert losslessly between languages.**Polyglot bindings**Python, TypeScript/Node, Ruby, PHP, Elixir, Go, Java, C#, Kotlin, Dart, Swift, Zig, WASM, Rust, and C FFI.**Schema codegen**Parse OpenAPI 3.0, AsyncAPI 3.0, GraphQL SDL, and JSON-RPC 2.0 specs. Generate handlers and validators per binding.**SQL to HTTP codegen**Annotate SQL queries with `@http GET /path`, `@http_auth bearer:jwt`, and emit route metadata and OpenAPI specs.**Tower middleware**Compression, rate limiting, timeouts, request IDs, JWT/API-key auth, and static file serving.**Lifecycle hooks**`onRequest`, `preValidation`, `preHandler`, `onResponse`, and `onError`.**WebSocket & SSE**Bidirectional streams and server-sent events.**Fixture-driven testing**Shared JSON fixtures drive tests across language bindings for behavioral consistency.**CLI & MCP server**Initialize projects, generate code, validate schemas, and integrate with MCP-compatible tools.Installation ------------ [](#installation) Each binding ships through its native package manager.

Architecture ------------ [](#architecture) All bindings call a shared Rust core through thin language-native layers: **How bindings work**``` Language bindings (Python, Node, Ruby, Go, Java, C#...) | v FFI / NAPI / PyO3 / Magnus / runtime bridge | v crates/spikard-http Router, middleware, auth crates/spikard-core HTTP types, validation, errors crates/spikard-codegen OpenAPI, GraphQL, AsyncAPI, JSON-RPC ``` Bindings are generated from the Rust API surface via [alef](https://github.com/xberg-io/alef). Binding code stays thin: type conversion, error conversion, and runtime integration. Business logic, validation, middleware, and codegen all live in Rust. **Specification support**- **OpenAPI 3.0** — Route definitions to specs, parameter validators, Swagger/ReDoc UI - **GraphQL** — SDL schema parsing, query execution, introspection, Handler trait integration - **AsyncAPI 3.0** — Channel/operation extraction, message validators, WebSocket integration - **OpenRPC** — JSON-RPC 2.0 method handlers, parameter validation, batch requests **Middleware stack**Compression (gzip/brotli), rate limiting, timeouts, request IDs, authentication (JWT/API key), static files. Configured via ServerConfig structs. All middleware is implemented in Rust via tower-http. Development ----------- [](#development) ``` task setup # Install dependencies task build # Build Rust core (debug) task test # Run Rust tests task test:all # Run all tests (Rust + bindings) task e2e:all # Generate + build + run e2e tests task format # Format all code ``` Run `task --list` for the full task catalog. **Project status**- Rust core is stable and production-ready. - Binding packages follow the Rust crate version. - E2E coverage is fixture-driven and shared across supported language targets. - See [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md) for guidelines on modifying generated bindings.
