PiBox.Hosting.Abstractions 1.0.25

PiBox.Hosting.Abstractions

PiBox.Hosting.Abstractions is the core abstraction/interface package that allows dotnet dev's to develop their own plugins.

Installation

To install the nuget package follow these steps:

dotnet add package PiBox.Hosting.Abstractions

or add as package reference to your .csproj

<PackageReference Include="PiBox.Hosting.Abstractions" Version="" />

ConfigurationAttribute

The configuration attribute can be used to easily create an configuration class for your plugin. The class decorated with the attribute is automatically bound on startup to the their corresponding setting values from appsettings files or ENV variables.

example:
  mykey: "myvalue"

using PiBox.Hosting.Abstractions.Attributes;
[Configuration("example")]
public class ExampleConfiguration
{
    public string MyKey { get; set; };

}

the class then can be consumed in any plugin via their constructor

public class WebHostSamplePlugin
{
    private readonly ExampleConfiguration _exampleConfiguration;

    public WebHostSamplePlugin(ExampleConfiguration exampleConfiguration)
    {
        _exampleConfiguration = exampleConfiguration;
    }
}

Plugin application configuration

This allows you in instruct the web host to execute certain methods on the application builder while the web host is starting. This is mainly used for UseXYZ extensions methods which usually are required by other 3rd party nuget packages.

public class WebHostSamplePlugin : IPluginApplicationConfiguration
{
    public void ConfigureApplication(IApplicationBuilder applicationBuilder)
    {
        // register stuff on the application builder which should be executed if your plugin is loaded and used by an webhost
        // for example
        applicationBuilder.UseRouting();
    }
}

Plugin service configuration

This allows you in instruct the web host to execute certain methods on the service collection while the web host is starting This is mainly used for IoC/DI registrations or other service setup methods.

public class WebHostSamplePlugin : IPluginServiceConfiguration
{
    public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection serviceCollection)
    {
        // register stuff on the serviceCollcection which should be executed if your plugin is loaded and used by an webhost
        // for example
        serviceCollection.AddTransient<IMyClass, MyClass>();
    }
}

Plugin health checks configuration & health check attribute

this enables the registration of health checks for which are exposed by the web host. The usage follows the documentation of the asp.net core health checks.

public class WebHostSamplePlugin : IPluginServiceConfiguration
{
    public void ConfigureHealthChecks(IHealthChecksBuilder healthChecksBuilder)
    {
        // for example
        var uriBuilder = new UriBuilder("baseUri") { Path = $"/checkTHIS" };
        var uri = uriBuilder.Uri;
        healthChecksBuilder.AddUrlGroup(uri, "mycheck", HealthStatus.Unhealthy, new[] { HealthCheckTags.Readiness });
    }
}

the same can be achieved by decorating an health implemented class with the attributes

[ReadinessCheck("kafka")]
[LiveinessCheck("kafka")]
public class KafkaHealthCheck : IHealthCheck
{
        private readonly ClientConfig _clientConfig;
        private readonly ILogger<KafkaHealthCheck> _logger;

        public KafkaHealthCheck(ClientConfig clientConfig, ILogger<KafkaHealthCheck> logger)
        {
            _clientConfig = clientConfig;
            _logger = logger;
        }

        public Task<HealthCheckResult> CheckHealthAsync(HealthCheckContext context, CancellationToken cancellationToken = new CancellationToken())
        {
            if (healthy == true)
            {
                return Task.FromResult(HealthCheckResult.Healthy("Kafka is available."));
            }
            return Task.FromResult(HealthCheckResult.Unhealthy($"Kafka is unavailable. All servers are down."));
        }

}

Plugin endpoints configuration

This enables the usage of dotnet 6 minimal apis. The official documentation of asp core minimal apis is valid and applicable

public class WebHostSamplePlugin : IPluginEndpointsConfiguration
{
    public void ConfigureEndpoints(IEndpointRouteBuilder endpointRouteBuilder, IServiceProvider serviceProvider)
    {
        // for example
        endpointRouteBuilder.MapGet("/hello", async () =>
        {
            return "Hello, World!";
        }).RequireAuthorization();
    }
}

Plugin controller configuration

This enables the configuration of the controllers of your plugin

public class WebHostSamplePlugin : IPluginControllerConfiguration
{
    public void ConfigureControllers(IMvcBuilder controllerBuilder)
    {
        // for example
        controllerBuilder.AddMvcOptions(options => options.RespectBrowserAcceptHeader = true);
    }
}

Metrics

PiBox uses open telemetry for it's metrics capabilities with some wrappers for better developer experience Generally speaking anything from the open telemetry documentation should be applicable and valid.

Simple metrics can be created and used like this

Metrics.Meter.CreateCounter<long>($"my_metric_name_total", "calls").Add(1);

or with tags

Metrics.Meter.CreateCounter<long>($"my_metric_name_total", "calls").Add(1, new KeyValuePair<string, object>("label", "custom-tag-value"));

as pre defined field

private readonly Histogram<long> _commandDurationInSeconds = Metrics.Meter.CreateHistogram<long>("command_duration_seconds", "items", "description");
...
_commandDurationInSeconds.Add(1);

Default exposed metrics

Date abstraction

PiBox used chronos.net as an datetime abstraction layer to enable test ability of implementations.
