I would like to "hook in" and tweak configuration to UnicastBus and was looking at doing this using IWantToRunBeforeConfigurationIsFinalized.
I would like to tweak/set the value for: ForwardReceivedMessagesTo. Any ideas on how that should be done?
Unfortunately due to a bug (see https://github.com/Particular/NServiceBus/issues/1960), the only possible way is to programmatically replace the whole UnicastBusConfig, eg:
class Foo : IProvideConfiguration<UnicastBusConfig>
{
public UnicastBusConfig GetConfiguration()
{
var unicastBusConfig = new UnicastBusConfig
{
ForwardReceivedMessagesTo = "FooBar",
};
unicastBusConfig.MessageEndpointMappings = new MessageEndpointMappingCollection();
unicastBusConfig.MessageEndpointMappings.Add(...);
return unicastBusConfig;
}
}
But that is quite ugly :(

Using version 2.0.2 I just cannot find where to set the serializer settings for the Nest.JsonNetSerializer to avoid Self referencing loop detected exception.
And i guess that the documentation is not updated for version 2.
There is one PR in the NEST repo explaining how you can handle this situation in version 2.x.x.
Summary:
var connectionPool = new SingleNodeConnectionPool(new Uri("http://localhost:9200"));
var settings = new ConnectionSettings(connectionPool, connectionSettings => new MyJsonNetSerializer(connectionSettings))
.DefaultIndex(indexName)
.DisableDirectStreaming()
.PrettyJson();
public class MyJsonNetSerializer : JsonNetSerializer
{
public MyJsonNetSerializer(IConnectionSettingsValues settings) : base(settings)
{
}
protected override void ModifyJsonSerializerSettings(Newtonsoft.Json.JsonSerializerSettings settings)
{
settings.ReferenceLoopHandling = ReferenceLoopHandling.Ignore;
}
}
Hope it helps.
Once again there are some significant changes to how this is handled in v.5.
I found this example in the tests and it worked for me...
/**=== Overriding Json.NET settings
*
* Overriding the default Json.NET behaviour in NEST is an expert behavior but if you need to get to the nitty gritty, this can be really useful.
*/
/**
* The easiest way is to create an instance of `SerializerFactory` that allows you to register a modification callback
* in the constructor
*/
public void EasyWay()
{
var pool = new SingleNodeConnectionPool(new Uri("http://localhost:9200"));
var connectionSettings = new ConnectionSettings(
pool,
new HttpConnection(),
new SerializerFactory((jsonSettings, nestSettings) => jsonSettings.PreserveReferencesHandling = PreserveReferencesHandling.All));
var client = new ElasticClient(connectionSettings);
}

I wanted to take advantage of built-in content negotiator and just get access to decision what formatter is going to be used. I don't want to use Request.Headers.Accept and check for whether it is json or xml content type because there lot of things are involved in that decision. Is there a way I can check at controller level or override any class that tells me what formatter going to be used OR what request content type is?
thanks in advance.
You can run conneg manually:
var conneg = Configuration.Services.GetContentNegotiator();
var connegResult = conneg.Negotiate(
typeof(YOUR_TYPE), Request, Configuration.Formatters
);
And use the output whichever way you want:
//the valid media type
var mediaType = connegResult.MediaType;
//do stuff
//the relevant formatter
var formatter = connegResult.Formatter;
//do stuff
If you want to see what is going on then install a TraceWriter and you will see what the conneg does.
A TraceWriter looks something like:
public class TraceWriter : ITraceWriter {
public bool IsEnabled(string category, TraceLevel level) {
return true;
}
public void Trace(HttpRequestMessage request, string category, TraceLevel level, Action<TraceRecord> traceAction) {
var rec = new TraceRecord(request, category, level);
traceAction(rec);
Log(rec);
}
private void Log(TraceRecord record) {
Console.WriteLine(record.Message);
}
}
and is installed like this,
config.Services.Replace(typeof(ITraceWriter), new TraceWriter());
If you want to manually invoke conneg then you can use,
config.Services.GetContentNegotiator().Negotiate(...)
Tugberk has a blog on this. Have a look.
I'm reading through Rob Ashton's excellent blog post on RavenDB:
http://codeofrob.com/archive/2010/05/09/ravendb-an-introduction.aspx
and I'm working through the code as I read. But when I try to add an index, I get a 401 error. Here's the code:
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
using (var documentStore = new DocumentStore() { Url = "http://localhost:8080" })
{
documentStore.Initialise();
documentStore.DatabaseCommands.PutIndex(
"BasicEntityBySomeData",
new IndexDefinition<BasicEntity, BasicEntity>()
{
Map = docs => from doc in docs
where doc.SomeData != null
select new
{
SomeData = doc.SomeData
},
});
string entityId;
using (var documentSession = documentStore.OpenSession())
{
var entity = new BasicEntity()
{
SomeData = "Hello, World!",
SomeOtherData = "This is just another property",
};
documentSession.Store(entity);
documentSession.SaveChanges();
entityId = entity.Id;
var loadedEntity = documentSession.Load<BasicEntity>(entityId);
Console.WriteLine(loadedEntity.SomeData);
var docs = documentSession.Query<BasicEntity>("BasicEntityBySomeData")
.Where("SomeData:Hello~")
.WaitForNonStaleResults()
.ToArray();
docs.ToList().ForEach(doc => Console.WriteLine(doc.SomeData));
Console.Read();
}
}
}
It throws the 401 error when on the line that makes the PutIndex() call. Any ideas what permissions I need to apply? And where I need to apply them?
What do you mean by Server mode? Do you mean simply executing Raven.Server?
I've not had to do anything special client-side to get that to work, although I have had to run Raven.Server with elevated privileges because I'm not sure the code to ask for relevant permissions is quite working as intended. (Actually, I'll raise a query about that on the mailing list)
You shouldn't be getting a 401 error unless you've changed the configuration of Raven.Server.
If you're running the server, you can browse to it directly using the url specified in configuration (localhost:8080 by default) - make sure it's actually running and working as intended before continuing with troubleshooting
I have Googled a bit, and cannot seem to find any examples of Xaml-fying Activities - good, bad, or otherwise!
public static string ToXaml (this Activity activity)
{
// i would use ActivityXamlServices to go from Xaml
// to activity, but how to go other way? documentation
// is slim, and cannot infer proper usage of
// ActivityXamlServices from Xml remarks :S
string xaml = string.Empty;
return xaml;
}
Hints, tips, pointers would be welcome :)
NOTE: so found this. Will work through and update once working. Anyone wanna beat me to the punch, by all means. Better yet, if you can find a way to be rid of WorkflowDesigner, seems odd it is required.
Alright, so worked through this forum posting.
You may Xaml-fy [ie transform an instance to declarative Xaml] a well-known Activity via
public static string ToXaml (this Activity activity)
{
StringBuilder xaml = new StringBuilder ();
using (XmlWriter xmlWriter = XmlWriter.Create (
xaml,
new XmlWriterSettings { Indent = true, OmitXmlDeclaration = true, }))
using (XamlWriter xamlWriter = new XamlXmlWriter (
xmlWriter,
new XamlSchemaContext ()))
using (XamlWriter xamlServicesWriter =
ActivityXamlServices.CreateBuilderWriter (xamlWriter))
{
ActivityBuilder activityBuilder = new ActivityBuilder
{
Implementation = activity
};
XamlServices.Save (xamlServicesWriter, activityBuilder);
}
return xaml.ToString ();
}
Your Xaml may contain certain artifacts, such as references to System.Activities.Presentation namespace appearing as xmlns:sap="...". If this presents an issue in your solution, read the source link above - there is a means to inject directives to ignore unrecognized namespaces.
Will leave this open for a while. If anyone can find a better solution, or improve upon this, please by all means :)
How about XamlServices.Save(filename, activity)?
Based on the other solution (for VS2010B2) and some Reflectoring, I found a solution for VS2010RC. Since XamlWriter is abstract in the RC, the new way to serialize an activity tree is this:
public static string ToXaml (this Activity activity)
{
var xamlBuilder = new StringBuilder();
var xmlWriter = XmlWriter.Create(xamlBuilder,
new XmlWriterSettings { Indent = true, OmitXmlDeclaration = true });
using (xmlWriter)
{
var xamlXmlWriter =
new XamlXmlWriter(xmlWriter, new XamlSchemaContext());
using (xamlXmlWriter)
{
XamlWriter xamlWriter =
ActivityXamlServices.CreateBuilderWriter(xamlXmlWriter);
using (xamlWriter)
{
var activityBuilder =
new ActivityBuilder { Implementation = sequence };
XamlServices.Save(xamlWriter, activityBuilder);
}
}
}
return xamlBuilder.ToString();
}
I am having a minor problem with WCF service proxies where the message contains List<string> as a parameter.
I am using the 'Add Service reference' in Visual Studio to generate a reference to my service.
// portion of my web service message
public List<SubscribeInfo> Subscribe { get; set; }
public List<string> Unsubscribe { get; set; }
These are the generated properties on my MsgIn for one of my web methods.
You can see it used ArrayOfString when I am using List<string>, and the other takes List<SubscribeInfo> - which matches my original C# object above.
[System.Runtime.Serialization.DataMemberAttribute(EmitDefaultValue=false)]
public System.Collections.Generic.List<DataAccess.MailingListWSReference.SubscribeInfo> Subscribe {
get {
return this.SubscribeField;
}
set {
if ((object.ReferenceEquals(this.SubscribeField, value) != true)) {
this.SubscribeField = value;
this.RaisePropertyChanged("Subscribe");
}
}
}
[System.Runtime.Serialization.DataMemberAttribute(EmitDefaultValue=false)]
publicDataAccess.MailingListWSReference.ArrayOfString Unsubscribe {
get {
return this.UnsubscribeField;
}
set {
if ((object.ReferenceEquals(this.UnsubscribeField, value) != true)) {
this.UnsubscribeField = value;
this.RaisePropertyChanged("Unsubscribe");
}
}
}
The ArrayOfString class generated looks like this. This is a class generated in my code - its not a .NET class. It actually generated me a class that inherits from List, but didn't have the 'decency' to create me any constructors.
[System.Diagnostics.DebuggerStepThroughAttribute()]
[System.CodeDom.Compiler.GeneratedCodeAttribute("System.Runtime.Serialization", "3.0.0.0")]
[System.Runtime.Serialization.CollectionDataContractAttribute(Name="ArrayOfString", Namespace="http://www.example.com/", ItemName="string")]
[System.SerializableAttribute()]
public class ArrayOfString : System.Collections.Generic.List<string> {
}
The problem is that I often create my message like this :
client.UpdateMailingList(new UpdateMailingListMsgIn()
{
Email = model.Email,
Name = model.Name,
Source = Request.Url.ToString(),
Subscribe = subscribeTo.ToList(),
Unsubscribe = unsubscribeFrom.ToList()
});
I really like the clean look this gives me.
Now for the actual problem :
I cant assign a List<string> to the Unsubscribe property which is an ArrayOfString - even though it inherits from List. In fact I cant seem to find ANY way to assign it without extra statements.
I've tried the following :
new ArrayOfString(unsubscribeFrom.ToList()) - this constructor doesn't exist :-(
changing the type of the array used by the code generator - doesn't work - it always gives me ArrayOfString (!?)
try to cast List<string> to ArrayOfString - fails with 'unable to cast', even though it compiles just fine
create new ArrayOfString() and then AddRange(unsubscribeFrom.ToList()) - works, but I cant do it all in one statement
create a conversion function ToArrayOfString(List<string>), which works but isn't as clean as I want.
Its only doing this for string, which is annoying.
Am i missing something? Is there a way to tell it not to generate ArrayOfString - or some other trick to assign it ?
Any .NET object that implements a method named "Add" can be initialized just like arrays or dictionaries.
As ArrayOfString does implement an "Add" method, you can initialize it like this:
var a = new ArrayOfString { "string one", "string two" };
But, if you really want to initialize it based on another collection, you can write a extension method for that:
public static class U
{
public static T To<T>(this IEnumerable<string> strings)
where T : IList<string>, new()
{
var newList = new T();
foreach (var s in strings)
newList.Add(s);
return newList;
}
}
Usage:
client.UpdateMailingList(new UpdateMailingListMsgIn()
{
Email = model.Email,
Name = model.Name,
Source = Request.Url.ToString(),
Subscribe = subscribeTo.ToList(),
Unsubscribe = unsubscribeFrom.To<ArrayOfString>()
});
I prefer not to return generic types across a service boundary in the first place. Instead return Unsubscribe as a string[], and SubscriptionInfo as SubscriptionInfo[]. If necessary, an array can easily be converted to a generic list on the client, as follows:
Unsubscribe = new List<string>(unsubscribeFrom);
Subscribe = new List<SubscriptionInfo>(subscribeTo);
Too late but can help people in the future...
Use the svcutil and explicitly inform the command line util that you want the proxy class to be serialized by the XmlSerializer and not the DataContractSerializer (default). Here's the sample:
svcutil /out:c:\Path\Proxy.cs /config:c:\Path\Proxy.config /async /serializer:XmlSerializer /namespace:*,YourNamespace http://www.domain.com/service/serviceURL.asmx
Note that the web service is an ASP.NET web service ok?!
If you are using VS 2008 to consume service then there is an easy solution.
Click on the "Advanced..." button on the proxy dialog that is displayed when you add a Service Reference. In the Collection Type drop down you can select System.Generic.List. The methods returning List should now work properly.
(Hope this is what you were asking for, I'm a little tired and the question was a tad difficult for me to read.)
