  1. Digging deeper into ServiceStack There is more than just easy webservices

  2. Who, where, what? All the boring stuff you will forget after the slides have passed

  3. Why am I here… • Stefan DaugaardPoulsen • @cyberzeddk • AP in Computer Science • Developer/Architect at Atea Denmark • Currently working on Atea Tele • .NET developer since 2002 • Silverlight developer back in 2011 with high use of WCF • “Caught” in a discussion about webservices in November 2011 • Got annoyed by RPC style, code-gen webservices

  4. Why is ServiceStackinterresting? Is it needed? Does it solve anything?

  5. What are bad ideas for webservices • Code-gen • It fails…too often • Archaic Xml configuration • Distribution, misspelling…or even horrible merges • Defaults that is bound to make you cry • Why do I need to set values that should be default! • Fixed serialization • Could be nice to talk to more systems no matter who they are • RPC style services • Maintenance hell • Chatty services • Bulk it!

  6. What is this ServiceStack thing • Official subtitle: • Web Services done right, REST services done easy :) • Simple and model-driven • Endpoint ignorant • Authentication built-in • IoCbased • Easy access to HTTP • Fast as lightning • Cross platform • Extendable • Oh!... And clients are in the box

  7. Seen from the serverside This is where the most wheels are turning in your development

  8. Gentlemen, start your engines… • IService • Service • And a lot more…

  9. Quick steps • Conventionbasedregistrations • Throwexceptions and have magichttpstatuscodes • Strongtypedreturns • It’s more than CRUD • PATCH etc. • Restrictaccess to your services

  10. Endpoint ignorant • JSON • Xml • JSV • CSV • SOAP • 1.1 • 1.2 • Custom

  11. Whatwas lost in the ”war” • Funq • OrmLite • ICacheClient • MiniProfiler • Validation • Custom responses • Headers

  12. Funq – it’salmost to easy • It’sdead simple • Fullfills the basicneeds • It’s fast • If youdon’tlike …add an adaptor

  13. OrmLite – whystick to EF or Nhibernate? • Do youreallyneed EF? • Do you trust your developers to know SQL? • Want to getcloser to the server? • Pragmatic over academic

  14. Caching – weneed more problems? • Youadded caching so nowyou have more problems • Cachekey generation • It’s so darnhard!!!

  15. Profiling – it’s so darneasy • Estimates and guessesleavesyounowhere • Easy to give response to the average Joe • Thankyou mr. Saffron and Dixon • Don’treinvent the wheel!!!

  16. Validation – whateveryonehates to repeat • if( request.Id != default(int) ) • It’sgetting boring! • Leverage the same validation in severalplaces • Fine grain it whereneeded

  17. Customizedresponses • If youwantanothercontent type • If youneed to return an image • If youwant to be a joker?

  18. Custom headers – this is a hardone...NOT!!! • CORS • Pleasedon’tuseAddHeader • If youwant to youcan do it • Location • …Link? • Not sure youwant to go thatway ;)

  19. Welcome to the clientside …unless you want to go all JS on me :)

  20. Clients • Client interfaces • IServiceClient • IRestClient • IRestClientAsync • Implementations • Soap11ServiceClient (only for IServiceClient) • Soap12ServiceClient (only for IServiceClient) • JsonServiceClient(Async) • JsvServiceClient(Async) • XmlServiceClient(Async) • Or you can hookup to the XSDs or WSDLs as well • Might be handy when delivering services to external partners

  21. But that’s not all kids… If you order now you will get … for only $19.99

  22. It’s a freaking swiss army knife!!! • OrmLite • MySQL • PostgreSQL • Sqlite 32 & Sqlite 64 • Firebird • Oracle • Authentication • MongoDB • Nhibernate • OpenId • RavenDB • Razor • Caching • Memcached • Azure • Protobuf • MessagePack • Logging • NLog • Log4Net • ELMAH • Eventlog • Swagger

  23. Show off time… Grab your whiskies and smile

  24. I’m in the need for speed! • Fastest JSON serializer • Burning Monk JSON Benchmarks (19/11/2012)

  25. Crossplatform • Supports ASP.NET and HttpListener hosts • Runs on Windows with .NET 3.5 and 4.0 • IIS 5/6/7 (uses IHttpHandler) • VS.NET WebDev Server (Cassini) • IIS Express • Console App, Windows Gui, Windows Service • Linux/OSX with Mono • Apache + mod_mono • Nginx + MonoFastCGI • XSP • Console App • A demo have been done inside iOS with MonoTouch

  26. Hosting – it canbecheap or reallyexpensive! Hetzner Windows Azure 1.67 GHZ 1.75GB RAM 100GB HDD 2TB Traffic €219.50 €2634 • 2.67 GHZ • 2GB RAM • 80GB HDD • 4TB Traffic • €19.90 • €238.80
