My program is small enough that in TS/JS I’d normally just store the data in some global variable to be access from whatever elsewhere in the app. But with Rust from what I can tell this doesn’t seem to be a common practice. How should i handle this?
More specifically, I need to:
- program start, fetch data from my db (DONE)
- store this data somehow somewhere
- access said data (for read only in this use case)
Thanks for any insights here!
From your description it sounds like you want OnceCell which is a relatively new feature; previously you’d use lazy_static
Yeah I tried out lazy_static, but the compiler was strongly urging me not to use it since it’s being deprecated. Thanks, I didn’t know about OneCell.
