The actix-admin crate aims at creating a web admin interface similar to other admin interfaces (such as flask-admin in python).

Features

1. Async: Builds on sea-orm as the database backend
2. Macros generate the required implementations for models
3. Authentication: optionally pass authentication handler to implement authentication for views
4. Supports custom validation rules
5. Searchable attributes can be specified
6. Supports custom views, handlers and groups in the Navbar

Example

Check the examples and run cargo run --example basic from the root folder for a basic in-memory sqlite version. The admin interface is accessible under localhost:5000/admin/.
