FEN.Client is a NuGet package containing configurations and customizations that cause an HttpClient to meet the standards of the Fulfiller Enablement squad. This is an opinionated library, and reflects those practices that FEN considers best. If you have a business need to do something other than what this library provides, you may want to choose something else.

Why You Want It

FEN.Client contains opinionated configuration on many significant HttpClient aspects:

  • Authentication
    • Caching of Authentication
  • Logging
  • Serialization and Deserialization

Most importantly, it allows for declarative configuration of what it takes to communicate with Cimpress services on the Platform. There's a certain amount of overhead or boilerplate required to do that, and this library aims to minimize it.

How You Use It

Import the NuGet package “Fen.Client” in your preferred way.

If you are using this library in an ASP.NET Core service, an AddHttpClient extension method has been provided that can be called from the service's ConfigureServices method in the startup class. Configuration is provided by the following types via dependency injection:

  • IOptions<Auth0Options>, which is provided by the standard configuration infrastructure.
  • ILogger, which is provided by the standard logging infrastructure.
  • IDistributedCache, which can be configured to operate in a distributed or local way by the standard caching infrastructure.
  • MediaTypeFormatter, which is ideally configured from the JsonSerializationSettings in the service's MvcJsonOptions.

If the application is not an ASP.NET Core, these dependencies can be passed via the constructors of the classes Auth0AuthenticatingHandler and V1.Auth0AuthenticatingHandler. The HttpClient itself can be constructed in many ways from this point, but the recommended pattern is to pass the handlers to the HttpClientFactory.Create(params DelegatingHandler[]) method. (It saves a lot of tedious work hooking the handlers up to one another.) Because delegating handlers operate like client middleware, the order in which these handlers are applied matters. For the Platform, apply the V1 handler first.

HttpClientFactory.Create(v1Auth0Handler, auth0Handler);
