I need a route to handle webhook events coming to an Axum API.

The Json body has an event property giving the event name, and a data property which will be a different object based on the event type.

#[derive(Debug, Deserialize)]
#[serde(rename_all = "kebab-case")]
pub enum DbWebhookEvent {
    SignUpCompleted,
}

#[derive(Debug, Deserialize)]
pub struct DbWebhookBody {
    event: DbWebhookEvent,
    data: ??
}

I looked at using the serde RawValue for this use-case but when I add a lifetime to the DbWebhookBody struct I am not sure how this should bubble up through to the app router.

I will then need to deserialize data once the event type is known so that it can be acted upon. My handler function is currently like this:

pub async fn post_db_webhook(
    Extension(app_state): Extension<Arc<AppState>>,
    Json(body): Json<DbWebhookBody>,
) -> Result<Json<DbWebhookResponse>> {
    match body.event {
        DbWebhookEvent::SignUpCompleted => {
          // need to deserialize body data to a struct
          let signup_data = SignupData::from(body.data)
          signup_completed(app_state, body.data);
        }
    }
    Ok(Json(DbWebhookResponse { ok: true }))
}
