Hands-On Microservices with C#

By: Matt Cole

Overview of this book

C# is a powerful language when it comes to building applications and software architecture using rich libraries and tools such as .NET. This book will harness the strength of C# in developing microservices architectures and applications. This book shows developers how to develop an enterprise-grade, event-driven, asynchronous, message-based microservice framework using C#, .NET, and various open source tools. We will discuss how to send and receive messages, how to design many types of microservice that are truly usable in a corporate environment. We will also dissect each case and explain the code, best practices, pros and cons, and more. Through our journey, we will use many open source tools, and create file monitors, a machine learning microservice, a quantitative financial microservice that can handle bonds and credit default swaps, a deployment microservice to show you how to better manage your deployments, and memory, health status, and other microservices. By the end of this book, you will have a complete microservice ecosystem you can place into production or customize in no time.

Installation

Before we do anything, we need to create a free account on Trello so that you can see the boards, cards, and lists that have been created. Alternatively, you can install the Windows 10 Trello application if applicable. If you are having trouble generating cards with the microservice as is, please go to https://trello.com/app-key and generate your own key. Once you have done that, simply replace the key with your newly generated one in the following call in the OnStart method:

trello = new Trello("9dbf8c09499d07abac02bbd6d5af4b9c");

Replace the token you get with the one in this call (the same method):

trello.Authorize("95da70bf03bd43b82648f515477d44ec84baa2fb9e811cb7284be10d94512b81");

Next, let's go ahead and create another Console App (.NET Framework) for our microservice. We will name this one TrelloMicroService:

For this microservice...
