-----------------------------------------------
Hi [~ulidtko],
So, while calling {{Tserver.listen}}, I observed that it internally calls,
{code}
TcpListener::bind<T: std::net::ToSocketAddrs>(addr: T);
{code}
So, If we could have a {{std::net::ToSocketAddrs}} trait implemented for
something, it would work. But the problem is, the trait needs the following
definition
{code}
fn to_socket_addrs(&self) -> Result<Iterator<Item = std::net::SocketAddr>>
{code}
and the {{std::net::SocketAddr}} enum only has 2 types, {{SocketAddrV4}} and
{{SocketAddrV6}}.
I am not sure if we can represent a Unix socket into those types since it's
looking for octets.

> Key: THRIFT-5283
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-5283
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Affects Versions: 0.13.0
> Reporter: Prateek Kumar Nischal
> Priority: Minor
>
> The rust crate for [thrift|https://crates.io/crates/thrift] right now has the
> ability to create a server [but only over a TCP
> socket|https://github.com/apache/thrift/blob/master/lib/rs/src/server/threaded.rs#L172].
> {code}
> pub fn listen<A: ToSocketAddrs>(&mut self, listen_address: A) ->
> thrift::Result<()>
> {code}
> The API requires the trait
> [ToSocketAddrs|https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/net/trait.ToSocketAddrs.html] to
> be implemented which is not possible for a Unix Domain Socket.
> Other libraries, for example, python has an option to serve over unix
> sockets. eg
> {code:python}
> TSocket.TServerSocket(unix_socket='/tmp/service.sock')
> {code}
> It would be really nice to be able to get a similar API in rust as well
> unless there is a way to do it already. Please let me know if it already
> exists.
