I am using JsonServiceClient in a Xamarin app, like this:
JsonServiceClient client = new JsonServiceClient("https://my.domain.com/");
SetHeaders(client);
var request = ...; // this is IRequest<T>
var result = await client.SendAsync(request); // <-- FAILS, can't find service
My backend returns an answer, saying that there is no service at that endpoint, which is true, the path that was actually sent over the wire is incorrect.
The request is defined in a lib, like so:
[Route("/mybasepath/endpoint", "POST")]
public class Login : IReturn<LoginResponse>
{
}
The problem is the path that is used in the call, which is wrong and does not follow the Route attribute:
https://my.domain.com/json/reply/Login
Here, ServiceStack client uses the default /json/reply path, even though I have the Route attribute defined in the DTO.
If I change the method used on the client instance, and instead use PostAsync, the path is ten correct and the call work as expected:
JsonServiceClient client = new JsonServiceClient("https://my.domain.com/");
SetHeaders(client);
var request = ...; // this is IRequest<T>
var result = await client.PostAsync(request); // <-- WORKS!
I don't have a minimal project right now that can be immediately tested, maybe it is something easy I have missed?
(Using ServiceStack.Client v 5.10.4 on VS 2019 16.9)
If you want to use ServiceStack's generic Send* APIs the Service Clients needs to explicitly infer the Verb to use by annotating the Request DTO with an HTTP Verb Interface Marker, not necessary for AutoQuery or AutoQuery CRUD APIs which is inferred from their base classes.
Otherwise Send* APIs are designed to fallback to use ServiceStack's pre-defined Routes.

I am struggling to set-up infrastructure in my solution to send and retrieve the custom header for REST WCF Service. Basically, we need this to send UserID, password, token value from client to service and if provided values are valid then operation will continue to execute otherwise throw exception.
We already have few classes inherited from interfaces like IDispatchMessageInspector, IClientMessageInspector, IEndPointBehaviour, MessageHeader, etc., This is working fine for WCF with soap request. I tried to use these classes for my new REST WCF Service, but was not working as MessageHeader derived class supports only Soap.
I also tried using WebOperationContext, but no luck :(
Please provide a solution along with sample project to solve this problem.
Thank you so much!
Seems in your case it might be easier to interogate the ASPNET pipeline
if you add the following to your WCF service to allow it to hookup into the ASPNET pipeline
[AspNetCompatibilityRequirements(RequirementsMode =
AspNetCompatibilityRequirementsMode.Allowed)]
Then you can simply now use the HttpContext object and just get the headers as you would from a normal aspnet application, e.g
System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Request.Headers["CustomHeader"]
If you want to add http header in wcf rest service , you should use HttpRequestMessageProperty, it has a Headers property , you could set http Header through its Headers property
using (OperationContextScope scope = new OperationContextScope(client.InnerChannel))
{
HttpRequestMessageProperty property;
// if OutgoingMessageProperties already has HttpRequestMessageProperty, use the existing one , or initialize a new one and
// set OutgoingMessageProperties's HttpRequestMessageProperty.Name key's value to the initialized HttpRequestMessageProperty so that the HttpRequestMessageProperty will work
if (OperationContext.Current.OutgoingMessageProperties.ContainsKey(HttpRequestMessageProperty.Name)){
property = OperationContext.Current.OutgoingMessageProperties[HttpRequestMessageProperty.Name] as HttpRequestMessageProperty;
}
else
{
property = new HttpRequestMessageProperty();
OperationContext.Current.OutgoingMessageProperties[HttpRequestMessageProperty.Name] = property;
}
// add headers to HttpRequestMessageProperty, it will become the http header of the reuqest
property.Headers.Add(System.Net.HttpRequestHeader.Authorization, "myAuthorization");
string re = client.HelloWorld();
}
About getting the Header , just use WebOperationContext.Current.Headers.
WebOperationContext.Current.IncomingRequest.Headers["MyCustomHttpHeader"]

I have an ASP.NET Web API I wrote and have published. Now that its out there we are looking at doing some improvements, and these improvements involve changes to certain calls which means we need to version to keep existing clients working.
I have used attribute routing so far in my app. Methods are invoked by: Controller/Action via RoutePrefix and Route attributes.
When I do need to create a V2 of my classes, I only want to recreate the classes that have actually changed, and redirect other routes back to v1 classes because they haven't changed. (Otherwise I just end up with a lot of boilerplate code, or duplicate code).
What I want to do is have the following routes work for my v1 version of classes:
Controller/Action
For V2 I want any new classes to go to V2, and any classes that haven't changed I want to return the HttpControllerDescriptor from V1 class. The route would look like v2/Controller/Action but would be redirected to Controller/Action.
I've implemented a IHttpControllerSelector and return the appropriate HttpControllerDescriptors but its not making the call into the method. I believe its because the routing information doesn't match the action. (When I put in an IHttpActionSelector and trace the exception it says "multiple actions were found that match the request).
So, I'm guess I'm wondering: Is this even possible? Is this the best way to achieve what I'm trying to do?
Here is what I implemented for versioning support in asp.net web api. Important to note I did not use attribute routing but explicit routes in WebApiConfig.cs so if you want to follow this pattern you would need to switch back to explicit routes. Also I do not prefer version information in the actual route, I use a custom (ie. "version") parameter in Accept header. I also set the version per mime type as in the below example. If version number is not set by the client or if the requested version does not exist this will fall back to default controller.
Create a class and inherit from DefaultHttpControllerSelector so you can fallback to base class behavior when you wanted to.
Override SelectController method as such:
public override HttpControllerDescriptor SelectController(HttpRequestMessage request)
{
IDictionary controllers = GetControllerMapping();
IHttpRouteData routeData = request.GetRouteData();
string controllerName = (string)routeData.Values["controller"];
HttpControllerDescriptor controllerDescriptor;
if (string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(controllerName))
{
return base.SelectController(request);
}
if (!controllers.TryGetValue(controllerName, out controllerDescriptor))
{
return null;
}
string version = GetVersionFromAcceptHeader(request);
if (string.Equals(version, "1"))
{
return controllerDescriptor;
}
string newName = string.Concat(controllerName, "V", version);
HttpControllerDescriptor versionedControllerDescriptor;
if (controllers.TryGetValue(newName, out versionedControllerDescriptor))
{
return versionedControllerDescriptor;
}
return controllerDescriptor;
}
Register this controller selector in your webapiconfig Register method:
config.Services.Replace(typeof(IHttpControllerSelector), new YourControllerSelector(config));
I am trying to consume a binary stream from a ServiceStack service, as described here:
How to consume a file with a ServiceStack client
I realize that I must use a custom WebClient, since I want direct access to the response stream. However, I would still like to avoid making this client by hand. Instead, I'd like to write something like,
var webClient = new JsonServiceClient(baseUrl)
.ConfigureWebClient(new MyRequestDto { Foo = "bar" }));
This way, I wouldn't have to assemble the URL and query string by hand; and when I change my request DTO, I wouldn't have to remember to change my custom WebClient setup code, either.
Is there a way to accomplish this, somehow ? I've looked at ServiceClientBase.PrepareWebRequest(...), and it does a whole lot of useful stuff that I don't feel like copy/pasting into my own code. I'd love to inherit ServiceClientBase and call that method directly, but it's private, so I can't. Anyone got any other ideas ?
All of ServiceStack's C# Service Clients have both a Global and a Local Request Filter allowing you to initialise the Request and Global and Local Response Filters allowing fine-grained access to the returned HttpWebResponse.
Initializing the WebRequest of all ServiceClients using a Global Request Filter:
ServiceClientBase.HttpWebRequestFilter = httpReq => ConfigureWebClient(httpReq);
Using the Local Request Filter:
var client = new JsonServiceClient(baseUrl) {
LocalHttpWebRequestFilter = httpReq => ConfigureWebClient(httpReq)
};
Although if you just want the binary response All Service Clients allow you to specify either a string, byte[], Stream or HttpWebResponse as your Generic Response type and it will return what was requested. See the Service Client wiki page for more examples of these.
Here's how you can retrieve binary responses:
byte[] responseBytes = client.Get<byte[]>("/poco/World");
var dto = responseBytes.FromUtf8Bytes().FromJson<PocoResponse>();
Or with a Stream:
using (Stream responseStream = client.Get<Stream>("/poco/World")) {
var dto = responseStream.ReadFully().FromUtf8Bytes().FromJson<PocoResponse>();
}
Or from the underlying HttpWebResponse:
HttpWebResponse webResponse = client.Get<HttpWebResponse>("/poco/World");
using (var stream = webResponse.GetResponseStream())
using (var sr = new StreamReader(stream)) {
var dto = sr.ReadToEnd().FromJson<PocoResponse>();
}
You can change Open Source Software, you don't have to work around it
ServiceStack is Open Source software, there's no need to look for hacks or try to work around something that's not accessible or not available, make a pull-request to change what you want and if it's a valid request for a common use-case it will likely be accepted. Otherwise feel free to take a fork of the Source code and customize it as you wish.
ADFS 2.0, WIF (WS-Federation), ASP.NET: There is no http modules or any IdentityFoundation configuration defined in a web.config (like most WIF SDK samples show), instead everything is done via program code manually using WSFederationAuthenticationModule, ServiceConfiguration and SignInRequestMessage classes. I do http redirect to ADFS in a code and it seems to work fine, returning claims and redirecting user back to my web site with serialized claims in http request. So the question is how to parse this request using WIF classes, properties and methods and extract claims values from there? Thanks
Just in case want to share my experience, it might help somebody in the future. Well, solution I finally came to looks like this:
var message = SignInResponseMessage.CreateFromFormPost(Request) as SignInResponseMessage;
var rstr = new WSFederationSerializer().CreateResponse(message, new WSTrustSerializationContext(SecurityTokenHandlerCollectionManager.CreateDefaultSecurityTokenHandlerCollectionManager()));
var issuers = new ConfigurationBasedIssuerNameRegistry();
issuers.AddTrustedIssuer("630AF999EA69AF4917362D30C9EEA00C22D9A343", #"http://MyADFSServer/adfs/services/trust");
var tokenHandler = new Saml11SecurityTokenHandler {CertificateValidator = X509CertificateValidator.None};
var config = new SecurityTokenHandlerConfiguration{
CertificateValidator = X509CertificateValidator.None,
IssuerNameRegistry = issuers};
config.AudienceRestriction.AllowedAudienceUris.Add(new Uri("MyUri"));
tokenHandler.Configuration = config;
using(var reader=XmlReader.Create(new StringReader(rstr.RequestedSecurityToken.SecurityTokenXml.OuterXml)))
{
token = tokenHandler.ReadToken(reader);
}
ClaimsIdentityCollection claimsIdentity = tokenHandler.ValidateToken(token);
I found few similar code that uses SecurityTokenServiceConfiguration (it contains token handlers) instead of Saml11SecurityTokenHandler to read and parse token, however it did not work for me because of certificate validation failure. Setting SecurityTokenServiceConfiguration.CertificateValidator to X509CertificateValidator.None did not help coz Security Token Handler classes uses their own handler configuration and ignores STS configuration values, at least if you specify configuration parameters through the code like I did, however it works fine in case configuration is defined in web.config.
I have to consume a service provided by one of our partners. I was given little direction, but was told the security was to be PasswordDigest. I looked it up and immediatly saw lots of references to WSE, so off I went. It was very easy to implement and in no time I had a standard WSE user token using PasswordDigest sitting in the SOAP headers of my messages.
When we started testing today I was immediatly told (by the error message) that things weren't right. Turns out, out partner doesn't look in the SOAP header, but rather wants the security info in the http header.
I have seen lots of articles on how to add custom http headers to a proxy class, but my proxy inherits from SoapHttpClientProtocol which doesn't have a headers collection to add to. I was looking at making a raw httpWebRequest, but I have a specific method to access that has some complex parameters to deal with (and besides it feels like going backwords).
What is the best way to add custom http headers to a service proxy class that doesn't have a GetWebRequest method?
For reference:
Proxy class decleration:
[System.CodeDom.Compiler.GeneratedCodeAttribute("System.Web.Services", "2.0.50727.3053")]
[System.Diagnostics.DebuggerStepThroughAttribute()]
[System.ComponentModel.DesignerCategoryAttribute("code")]
[System.Web.Services.WebServiceBindingAttribute(Name="MtomServiceSoap11", namespace="http://ws.xxxxxxx.com/")]
public partial class MtomServiceService : System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol {
Target method I need to call:
[System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapDocumentMethodAttribute("", Use=System.Web.Services.Description.SoapBindingUse.Literal, ParameterStyle=System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapParameterStyle.Bare)]
[return: System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElementAttribute("uploadDocumentResponse", Namespace="http://ws.edsmtom.citizensfla.com/")]
public uploadDocumentResponse uploadDocument([System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElementAttribute(Namespace="http://ws.xxxxxxx.com/")] uploadDocumentRequest uploadDocumentRequest) {
object[] results = this.Invoke("uploadDocument", new object[] {
uploadDocumentRequest});
return ((uploadDocumentResponse)(results[0]));
}
}
The actual call to the Service is simple. The objects being pass in are not:
request.criteria = docCriteria;
request.document = document;
var result = service.uploadDocument(request);
Thanks.
It figures that 30 minutes after posting I would stumble across the answer. While the proxy class decelaration does not create a GetWebRequest method, its base class System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol has it and it can be overridden.
protected override System.Net.WebRequest GetWebRequest(Uri uri)
{
var request = base.GetWebRequest(uri);
request.Headers.Add("blah", "blah"); // <----
return request;
}
