Azure Mobile Services - logging when seeding the database - entity-framework

I want to log messages in the code I have in the Configuration.Seed() method.
But the log instance is in the ApiServices instance and I don't know how to access it from the Configuration class.

The ApiServices log property is just a thin wrapper around the Web API trace logger. You can get at it like this as well using the HttpConfiguration instance which you can pass into your database initializer:
config.Services.GetTraceWriter().Info("log something", category:"Initialization");
Hope this helps,

Create Service broker for Play Framework Api

I have created a sample play framework api which has one endpoint.
http://play-demo-broker.cfapps.io/say?number=20
Which just return me number that have passed.
I am able successfully deploy the service. Next want this service to Act like service broker
For same want to register this as by using below command
cf create-service-broker play-demo-broker admin admin http://play-demo-broker.cfapps.io --space-scoped
This command it giving me below error -
The service broker rejected the request. Status Code: 404 Not Found
Not sure what is causing this issue as there not much information available for Play Framework Service broker Setup.
The play framework is implemented above the akka packages. Akka rejects paths that are not implemented.
If I an not mistaken, cf create-service-broker command access the / endpoint. If you implemented only say?number=20 endpoint, then be default all other paths, such as the empty path, are rejected by Akka.
In order to open that endpoint you need to add it into the routes.
For example you can add:
GET / controllers.ControllerName.GetEmptyPath
And implement the GetEmptyPath method in ControllerName

Issue in LightInject when getting service instance

I have integrated Light Inject in web api project. I am able to register service successfully in application_start in global.asax. I am using filter which needs to be registered as well in application_start in global.asax. Filter constructor have reference to the services registered however I am not able to get the service instance. Samplee code:
service registration is as below:
container.Register<ILogger, EPPSLogger>(GetLifetime());
filter registration needs instance of ILogger. Using below code:
config.Filters.Add(new EPPSAuthenticationFilter(
config.DependencyResolver.GetService<ILogger>(),
config.DependencyResolver.GetService<IAuthenticationSecrets>()));
gets the error when try to getService that lightinject module is not injected/registered. I cant upgrade to .net framework 4.5 or so.
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks

Spring cloud config properties not honouring config properties

I wish to use consul strictly as a config source.
I am using spring-cloud-consul-config to get my config.
I am using git2consul to load files into consul and read them.
As per the spring cloud documentation I have added the following to my build.gradle
compile ("org.springframework.cloud:spring-cloud-starter-consul-config")
and have the following in my application.properties
spring.application.name=test-service
spring.cloud.consul.config.enabled=true
spring.cloud.consul.enabled=true
spring.cloud.consul.config.format=FILES
The problem I am facing is that the expected properties are not being loaded into the ConfigurationProperties beans. On further debugging in the ConsulPropertySourceLocator::locate(Environment environment) method, I see that the this.properties object is still loaded with KEY_VALUE enum.
This led me to ConsulConfigBootstrapConfiguration class, where the ConsulConfigProperties bean is being instantiated using a constructor.
Is this the problem or do I have something wrong in my setup.
If someone has a working setup of git2consul and spring cloud config, please can you point me to it for reference.
These values that you have in application.properties
spring.application.name=test-service
spring.cloud.consul.config.enabled=true
spring.cloud.consul.enabled=true
spring.cloud.consul.config.format=FILES
need to be in bootstrap.properties.

Does Feign retry require some sort of configuration?

I just tried to do a attempted a seamless upgrade of a service in a test setup. The service is being accessed by a Feign client. And naively I was under the impression that with multiple instances available of the service, the client would retry another instance if it failed to connect to one.
That, however, did not happen. But I cannot find any mention of how Feign in Spring Cloud is supposed to be configured to do this? Although I have seen mentions of it supporting it (as opposed to using RestTemplate where you would use something like Spring Retry?)
If you are using ribbon you can set properties similar to the following (substituting "localapp" for your serviceid):
localapp.ribbon.MaxAutoRetries=5
localapp.ribbon.MaxAutoRetriesNextServer=5
localapp.ribbon.OkToRetryOnAllOperations=true
ps underneath Feign has a Retryer interface, which was made to support things like Ribbon.
https://github.com/Netflix/feign/blob/master/core/src/main/java/feign/Retryer.java
see if property works - OkToRetryOnAllOperations: true
You can refer application ->

WSO2 Class Mediator gives an error

Our team is completely new to the WSO2 tool. We got the basic training on how to add proxy services and were able to do so as well.
Now, we have to add a class in the In Sequence. We tried that using the Class mediator but it was not able to find the class. Then we realized that the jar file needs to be in the components/lib folder. So, its able to load the class now. It proceeds to the out sequence and fault sequence properly. But, in the end, it gives the following exception.
Unable to add proxy service :: Failed to add proxy service: Parse. Check whether the Proxy already exists-Failed to add proxy service: Parse. Check whether the Proxy already exists
So far, we're using the design view to configure it. I surveyed through most of the posts within this forum, and, all are using the source code to configure. Also, the proxy service is not present in the Source View section under Service Bus.
Are we missing any step in the configuration? Do we need to switch to coding method or it is possible this way.
Your explanation is strange. Above mentioned error log can appear at the time of deploying the proxy service. But you say your proxy is going to the out-sequence and fault-sequence. From that what I understand is the proxy is already deployed.
You can check whether a proxy with the same name is there by looking in the ESB_HOME/repository/deployment/server/synapse-config/default/proxy-service folder. If there is a file with name Parse.xml (I think the name of the proxy service is Parse) you can delete it from the file system and then go to the design view and add the proxy again.
It seems there is already a proxy with the name you provided. Go to WSO2 ESB "source view" and check whether there exist a proxy with that name. Source view is available on the left side of the management console.
This artical will take you step by step in writing custom class mediators.
