AzureBlast 1.0.0

AzureBlast

AzureBlast is a lightweight, injectable .NET library that simplifies working with Azure services—including SQL Server, Service Bus, Key Vault, Table Storage, and ARM (Resource Manager)—from applications, scripts, and tools. It’s designed to be DI-friendly and easy to unit test.

✨ Features

• MSSQL – simple API for parameterized queries and metadata loading.
• Azure Service Bus – send single/batch/scheduled messages; receive & complete.
• Azure Key Vault – initialize a vault and get/set/delete/purge secrets.
• Azure Table Storage – list tables, set a table, upsert/query/delete entities.
• Azure Resource Manager (ARM) – list subscriptions, set subscription context, query resources.
• Two DI styles – options-based AddAzureBlast(...) or a fluent builder via UseAzureBlast(...).
• Script-friendly – AzureBlastFactory for LINQPad/PowerShell/console scenarios.
• Testable – interfaces and adapters to mock sealed SDK types.

📦 Installation

dotnet add package AzureBlast

Targets .NET 8+. Authentication defaults to DefaultAzureCredential unless you supply a TokenCredential.

🔐 Authentication

By default, AzureBlast uses DefaultAzureCredential. You can pass a custom TokenCredential if you need a specific auth flow (client secret, managed identity from a particular resource, etc.).

using Azure.Identity;
var cred = new ClientSecretCredential(tenantId, clientId, clientSecret);

🧰 Choose your setup

1) Options-based DI registration (one-shot)

using AzureBlast;
using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;
using Azure.Identity; // only if you override Credential

var services = new ServiceCollection();

services.AddAzureBlast(o =>
{
    o.SqlConnectionString          = "Server=.;Database=App;Trusted_Connection=True;";
    o.KeyVaultUrl                  = "https://contoso.vault.azure.net/";
    o.TableStorageConnectionString = "UseDevelopmentStorage=true;";
    o.TableName                    = "MyTable";
    o.ServiceBusConnectionString   = "<sb-connection-string>";
    o.ServiceBusQueueName          = "orders";

    // Optional credential override (otherwise DefaultAzureCredential is used):
    // o.Credential = new DefaultAzureCredential();
});

var sp = services.BuildServiceProvider();

This path uses TryAdd* so your own prior registrations aren’t overwritten.

2) Fluent builder (incremental)

using AzureBlast;
using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;
using Azure.Identity;

var services = new ServiceCollection();

// DefaultAzureCredential:
services
    .UseAzureBlast()
    .WithSql("Server=.;Database=App;Trusted_Connection=True;")
    .WithKeyVault("https://contoso.vault.azure.net/")
    .WithTableStorage("UseDevelopmentStorage=true;", "MyTable")
    .WithServiceBus("<sb-connection-string>", "orders")
    .Build();

// Or supply a custom TokenCredential:
services
    .UseAzureBlast(new DefaultAzureCredential())
    .WithKeyVault("https://contoso.vault.azure.net/")
    .Build();

var sp = services.BuildServiceProvider();

3) Adhoc (no DI) via AzureBlastFactory — scripts, LINQPad, PowerShell

using AzureBlast;

// Build a provider ad-hoc with options (no IServiceCollection needed)
var sp = AzureBlastFactory.CreateServiceProvider(o =>
{
    o.TableStorageConnectionString = "UseDevelopmentStorage=true;";
    o.TableName = "MyTable";
});

// Or construct exactly what you need, directly:
var db = AzureBlastFactory.CreateDatabase("Server=.;Database=App;Trusted_Connection=True;");
var kv = AzureBlastFactory.CreateKeyVault("https://contoso.vault.azure.net/");        // or CreateKeyVaultAsync(...)
var sb = AzureBlastFactory.CreateServiceBus("<sb-conn>", "orders");
var ts = AzureBlastFactory.CreateTableStorage("UseDevelopmentStorage=true;", "MyTable");
var arm = AzureBlastFactory.CreateArmClientWrapper();
var rc  = AzureBlastFactory.CreateResourceClient();

🧪 Using the services

All interfaces live under AzureBlast.Interfaces.

SQL (IMssqlDatabase)

using AzureBlast.Interfaces;

var db = sp.GetRequiredService<IMssqlDatabase>();

var rowsAffected = db.ExecuteNonQuery(
    "UPDATE Users SET IsActive = @active WHERE Id = @id",
    new() { ["@active"] = true, ["@id"] = 42 });

var result = db.ExecuteScalar(
    "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM Users WHERE IsActive = @active",
    new() { ["@active"] = true });

Service Bus (IAzureServiceBus)

using AzureBlast.Interfaces;

// Resolve from DI (already configured via options/fluent)
var bus = sp.GetRequiredService<IAzureServiceBus>();

// Send a message
await bus.SendMessageAsync("""{ "type": "hello", "payload": "AzureBlast" }"" );

// Receive some messages
var received = await bus.ReceiveMessagesAsync(maxMessages: 10);
foreach (var msg in received ?? [])
{
    // ...process...
    await bus.CompleteMessageAsync(msg);
}

Key Vault (IAzureKeyVault)

using AzureBlast.Interfaces;

var kv = sp.GetRequiredService<IAzureKeyVault>();

await kv.SetSecretAsync("MySecret", "shh");
var value = await kv.GetSecretAsync("MySecret");
// value == "shh"

Table Storage (IAzureTableStorage)

using AzureBlast.Interfaces;
using Azure.Data.Tables;

var tables = sp.GetRequiredService<IAzureTableStorage>();

// Optional: switch table at runtime
tables.SetTable("MyTable");

// Define an entity
public class UserEntity : ITableEntity
{
    public string PartitionKey { get; set; } = "Users";
    public string RowKey { get; set; } = Guid.NewGuid().ToString("N");
    public string Name { get; set; } = default!;
    public bool IsActive { get; set; }
    public DateTimeOffset? Timestamp { get; set; }
    public ETag ETag { get; set; }
}

// Upsert
await tables.UpsertEntityAsync(new UserEntity { Name = "Ada", IsActive = true });

// Query
var users = await tables.QueryEntitiesAsync<UserEntity>("IsActive eq true");

// Get & Delete
var first = users.FirstOrDefault();
if (first is not null)
{
    var fetched = await tables.GetEntityAsync<UserEntity>(first.PartitionKey, first.RowKey);
    await tables.DeleteEntityAsync(first.PartitionKey, first.RowKey);
}

ARM / Resource Graph (IAzureResourceClient)

using AzureBlast.Interfaces;

// Always available; wrapper is registered by default.
var rc = sp.GetRequiredService<IAzureResourceClient>();

// List subscriptions and set the one you want
var subs = await rc.ListSubscriptionsAsync();
var subId = subs.First().Id.SubscriptionId!;
await rc.SetSubscriptionContextAsync(subId);

// Explore resources
var groups = await rc.GetResourceGroupsByTagAsync("env", "prod");
var vms    = await rc.GetResourcesByTypeAsync("Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines");
var exists = await rc.ResourceExistsAsync("rg-app", "my-app-plan");

🧪 Testing

• The DI registration via options uses TryAdd* so repeated calls don’t duplicate registrations and won’t overwrite your own.
• Service Bus, Table Storage, and ARM are exposed through interfaces and adapters so you can stub or mock them in unit tests.
• Example: provide a fake IAzureTableStorage in the test container and assert it’s preserved when calling AddAzureBlast.

📖 API docs

XML documentation is included with the package and covers all public types:

• ServiceCollectionExtensions.AddAzureBlast(...) (options-based)
• AzureBlastRegistration.UseAzureBlast(...) (fluent builder)
• AzureBlastFactory (script/no-DI helpers)
• IMssqlDatabase, IAzureServiceBus, IAzureKeyVault, IAzureTableStorage, IAzureResourceClient, etc.

📝 Notes

• Credentials: If you don’t pass a TokenCredential, DefaultAzureCredential is used.
• Key Vault: The client is initialized during registration via InitializeKeyVaultAsync(vaultUrl) so it’s ready to use.
• Table Storage: You can set a default table during registration and change it later with SetTable(...).

🔧 Minimal quick-start (Service Bus only)

using AzureBlast;
using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;

var services = new ServiceCollection();

services.AddAzureBlast(o =>
{
    o.ServiceBusConnectionString = "<sb-connection-string>";
    o.ServiceBusQueueName = "queue1";
});

var sp  = services.BuildServiceProvider();
var bus = sp.GetRequiredService<AzureBlast.Interfaces.IAzureServiceBus>();

await bus.SendMessageAsync("""{ "hello": "world" }""");
