All synchronous (blocking) HTTP API methods have been removed from the ReCClient class, leaving only their asynchronous counterparts. These sync methods were previously marked as [Obsolete] and simply wrapped the async methods with .GetAwaiter().GetResult(). Additionally, the ToJsonContent method's return type was updated from HttpContent to JsonContent for improved type specificity.
Use conditional compilation to set BuildQuery's tuple Value type
to object for .NET Framework and object? for other targets,
ensuring compatibility with nullable reference types across
different .NET versions.
Introduce async/sync methods for all major API controllers in ReCClient, supporting GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE with JSON serialization. Add utility methods for query building and JSON content. Mark sync wrappers as [Obsolete]. Add System.Net.Http.Json dependency and supporting usings. Introduce ResultType enum. This greatly expands ReCClient's API coverage and usability.
A new static method `BuildStaticClient(Action<HttpClient> configureClient)`
was added to the `ReC.Client` namespace in `ReCClient.cs`. This method
configures and builds a static `IServiceProvider` for creating `ReCClient`
instances. It includes XML documentation detailing its purpose, usage,
and parameters, and warns that it should only be called once during
application startup.
The method accepts an `Action<HttpClient>` parameter for `HttpClient`
configuration and throws an `InvalidOperationException` if the static
provider is already built. It is marked `[Obsolete]` to encourage the
use of a local service collection instead of the static provider.
Additionally, the XML documentation for the `ReCClient` creation method
was updated to reference the new `BuildStaticClient` method.
Simplified the HTTP client configuration in the `BuildStaticClient` method of the `ReC.Client` namespace. Replaced the explicit use of `Services.AddHttpClient` with a call to `Services.AddRecClient(apiUri)`. This change improves code readability and reusability by encapsulating the HTTP client setup logic in a dedicated method or extension.
Refactored the `Create` method in the `ReCClient` class to directly resolve a `ReCClient` instance from the dependency injection container using `Provider.GetRequiredService<ReCClient>()`.
Removed the intermediate step of retrieving an `IHttpClientFactory` and manually creating a `ReCClient` object. This change reduces boilerplate code and assumes `ReCClient` is already registered in the container, improving maintainability.
The `BuildStaticClient` and `Create` methods in the `ReC.Client` namespace have been marked with the `[Obsolete]` attribute. These methods now include a message advising developers to use a local service collection instead of the static provider. This change serves as a warning that these methods are outdated and may be removed in future versions, encouraging a transition to a more modern design.
- Added comprehensive XML documentation for `DependencyInjection`
and `ReCClient` classes to improve code readability.
- Introduced overload for `AddRecClient` to allow flexible
`HttpClient` configuration.
- Added static `BuildStaticClient` and `Create` methods for
simplified client instantiation.
- Marked synchronous `InvokeRecAction` method as obsolete to
encourage asynchronous usage.
- Updated `ReC.Client.csproj`:
- Added `<DocumentationFile>` property for XML doc generation.
- Downgraded `Microsoft.Extensions.Http` to version 8.0.0.
- Removed `System.Text.Json` package reference.
- Removed `System.Text.Json` dependency from `ReCClient.cs`.
- Generated unique `HttpClient` name for `ReCClient` instances.
- Performed general code cleanup and improved method remarks.
Replaced the `ReCClient.Static` property with a `ReCClient.Create()` method to improve clarity and align with best practices. The new method retains the same functionality, including throwing an `InvalidOperationException` if the `Provider` is not built. The logic for retrieving the `IHttpClientFactory` and creating a `ReCClient` instance remains unchanged.
Renamed the static field `ServiceProvider` to `Provider` across
the `ReC.Client` namespace in `ReCClient.cs` for consistency
and clarity. Updated all occurrences, including declarations,
usages, and exception messages. Adjusted conditional compilation
blocks to reflect the new name. Ensured the `BuildStaticClient`
method and `Static` property use the renamed field appropriately.
Updated the `ServiceProvider` field in the `ReC.Client` namespace to use conditional compilation for framework-specific behavior:
- Added `NET8_0_OR_GREATER` directive to define `ServiceProvider` as nullable (`IServiceProvider?`) for .NET 8.0 or greater.
- Retained non-nullable `IServiceProvider` for other frameworks.
- Removed redundant `#if nullable` directives to simplify the code.
- Streamlined initialization logic for better clarity and maintainability.
Introduced dependency injection to the `ReCClient` class by adding `Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection`. Added a static mechanism for creating and managing a `ReCClient` instance, including a `BuildStaticClient` method to configure the HTTP client and a `Static` property to retrieve the client. Implemented error handling to ensure proper initialization of the static service provider.
Added the `[Obsolete]` attribute to the `InvokeRecAction` method
in the `ReC.Client` namespace to discourage its use. The attribute
recommends using the `InvokeRecActionAsync` method instead to
avoid potential deadlocks and improve performance.
Added a synchronous version of the `InvokeRecAction` method to
the `ReC.Client` namespace in `ReCClient.cs`. This method
invokes the `POST api/RecAction/invoke/{profileId}` endpoint
synchronously using `GetAwaiter().GetResult()` and returns a
boolean indicating success.
Also included XML documentation comments for the new method,
detailing its purpose, parameters, and return value.
The method `InvokeRecActionAsync` in the `ReC.Client` namespace was updated to return a `bool` instead of `Task`. This change allows the method to indicate whether the HTTP request was successful.
- Updated the return type from `Task` to `Task<bool>`.
- Modified the `<returns>` XML documentation to reflect the new behavior.
- Replaced `resp.EnsureSuccessStatusCode()` with `resp.IsSuccessStatusCode` to return the success status directly.
Updated the parameter name in the `InvokeRecActionAsync` method
to `cancellationToken` for better readability and alignment
with standard naming conventions. Adjusted the method signature
and internal usage to reflect this change.
Removed the `InvokeRecActionFakeAsync` method, which was used to invoke a fake RecAction via the `api/RecAction/invoke/fake` endpoint. This method is no longer needed or relevant.
The `InvokeRecActionAsync` method remains in place to handle RecActions for specific profile IDs via the `api/RecAction/invoke/{profileId}` endpoint.
- Removed unused `System.Xml.Linq` namespace import.
- Simplified code by removing `#if NETFRAMEWORK` directives.
- Added `ClientName` field to uniquely identify HTTP clients.
- Updated constructor to use named HTTP client with `ClientName`.
- Removed unused `_jsonOptions` field for better code clarity.
Updated ReCClient to use IHttpClientFactory for improved
resource management and testability. Added package
references for `Microsoft.Extensions.Http`, `System.Net.Http`,
and `System.Text.Json` to support HTTP client functionality
and JSON serialization. Included `System.Xml.Linq` for
potential XML-related operations. Updated constructor logic
to create `HttpClient` instances via the factory pattern.
A new asynchronous method `InvokeRecActionFakeAsync` was added to the `ReC.Client` namespace in `ReCClient.cs`. This method sends a POST request to the `api/RecAction/invoke/fake` endpoint. It includes XML documentation comments and accepts an optional `CancellationToken` parameter. The method ensures the response has a successful status code.
Added the `InvokeRecActionAsync` method to the `ReCClient` class in the `ReC.Client` namespace. This method performs an asynchronous HTTP POST request to the `api/RecAction/invoke/{profileId}` endpoint. It accepts a `profileId` parameter to specify the profile ID and an optional `CancellationToken` for task cancellation. The method ensures the HTTP response indicates success by calling `EnsureSuccessStatusCode()`. Included XML documentation comments for clarity and maintainability.
Added `ReCClient` class to handle HTTP requests with JSON
serialization/deserialization support. Updated `ReC.Client.csproj`
to include `System.Net.Http` (v4.3.4) and `System.Text.Json`
(v9.0.11) as package references. Introduced conditional `using`
directives for `NETFRAMEWORK` compatibility.
