PTI.Microservices.Library

Documentation for our NuGet Package "PTI.Microservices.Library"

The purpose of this package is to help developers create solutions faster by integrating several Cloud Services in one package, and enforcing Logging and Exception Handling, while still allowing the developers to have the control over the configuration. The package is designed to be consumed from microservices, so most items are async and do as little as possible, unless you configure it to do more, for example, in the case of Twitter Services, they support retry configuration, and have out of the box support for waiting for Twitter API Rate Limit, thanks for the great work done by Joe Mayo (https://github.com/JoeMayo) with his LinqToTwitter library. The TwitterFakeFollowersService currently supports communicating back to the consumer by using Action delegates, and the future version of it will support using SignalR. "PTI.Microservices.Library" is currently running under .NET Core 3.1.

The package exposes services such as:

• Azure Bing Search
• Azure Computer Vision
• Azure Custom Vision
• Azure Face
• Azure Maps
• Azure Speech
• Azure Video Indexer
• IpStack
• Microsoft Graph
• Paypal
• Twitter
• Youtube

About the Configuration Classes

The services configuration classes have an endpoint property, in the case of Azure services, those will usually be the Url for your created resource in Azure, or the base azure service api. In the case of the specialized services such as Customer Finder, Emotions Analyzer, Books Translation and similar, the property is prefilled with the Rapid API base service, if you use appSettings-based configuration the default value will be overwritten to respect developer-based configuration, this means you will need to set the correct service Url when using appSettings-based configuration.

Quick Samples

Sample 1

[HttpPost("[action]")]
    public async Task<IActionResult> UploadImages([FromBody]UploadImagesModel model)
    {
        Guid projectId = Guid.Parse(model.ProjectId);
        List<Uri> lstImages = model.Items.Where(p=>p.IsSelected==true).Select(p => new Uri(p.ImageUrl)).ToList();
        var uploadImagesResult = await AzureCustomVisionService.UploadImagesAsync(lstImages, projectId);
        List<string> tags = new List<string>() { model.Tag };
        foreach (var singleImage in uploadImagesResult)
        {
            try
            {
                await this.AzureCustomVisionService.CreateImageTagsAsync(projectId,
                    singleImage.Image.Id,
                    tags);
                await Task.Delay(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(1));
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                this.Logger.LogError(ex, ex.Message);
