Plinth.HttpApiClient

HTTP Api Client framework built on MS HttpClient

Adds logging and tracing to HttpClient based API clients.

There are two supported approaches to building clients, autogenerated clients and manually built clients.

Auto generating clients with nswag

  • install nodejs at least 12+
  • npm install -g nswag
  • run this command, substituting the link to the swagger spec
	nswag openapi2csclient /runtime:net60 '/input:http://localhost:5000/swagger/v1/swagger.json' \
	    /classname:NSwagClient /namespace:My.Project.Client /output:NSwagClient.cs \
	    /operationGenerationMode:SingleClientFromOperationId /generateClientInterfaces:true \
	    /injectHttpClient:true /disposeHttpClient:false /useBaseUrl:false /generateOptionalParameters:true \
	    '/excludedParameterNames:X-Plinth-Auth'

Documentation for configuration options: https://github.com/RicoSuter/NSwag/wiki/NSwag-Configuration-Document

  • Register the client during Startup
     services.AddHttpApiHandlerClient<INSwagClient, NSwagClient>(
        "NSwagClient",
        configureClient: c =>
        {
            c.BaseAddress = new Uri("http://localhost:5000");
        });

Manually building clients

Build a manual api client by deriving from BaseHttpApiClient and implementing API methods using HttpRequestMessage extensions. Example below:

public class MyClient : BaseHttpApiClient
{
    public MyClient(HttpClient client) : base("MyApi", client)
    {
    }

    public async Task<ModelObject?> GetThing(int parameter)
    {
        return await HttpGet("/api/values/thing")
	        .AddQueryParameter("param", parameter)
	        .ExecuteAsync<ModelObject>();
    }

    public async Task<ModelObject?> CreateThing(ModelObject modelObject)
    {
        return await HttpPost("/api/values/thing")
            .SetJsonBody(modelObject)
            .SetAuthorization("myApiToken")
            .ExecuteAsync<ModelObject>();
    }
