How do i use Brer?

Brer makes use of a hostedservice in ASP.NET.

A basic brer startup example can be found here.

Initial Setup

In short one must register the Brer services as follows:

services.UseBrer(
    new BrerOptionsBuilder().WithAddress(BrerOptionsBuilder.localHost, BrerOptionsBuilder.defaultPort)
        .WithPassword(BrerOptionsBuilder.defaultLogin)
        .WithUsername(BrerOptionsBuilder.defaultLogin)
        .WithExchange("MyExchange")
        .WithQueueName("MyQueue")
        .Build()
);

Brer can also be configured using environment variables as follows:

services.UseBrer(new BrerOptionsBuilder().ReadFromEnviromentVariables().Build());

Where it will look for the following variables:

• BrerHostName
• BrerPort
• BrerExchangeName
• BrerQueueName
• BrerUserName
• BrerPassword

Registering/Decorating an EventListener

Brer will automatically scan all referencing assemblies for EventListeners.

Once a class is annoted with the EventListener attribute it will further scan the class for Handler or WildCardHandler.

If Listeners collide on topic names Handler will always take priority over WildCardHandler.

Handler

[EventListener]
public class MyEventHandler{

    [Handler(topic:"MyTopic")]
    public async Task Handle(MyEvent @event){
        // do stuff
    }

}

WildCardHandler

When using a WildCardHandler you're required to use at least 1 wild card in the topic binding.

Wild cards can contain as many * as wanted but impose some restrictions on the usage of #. Only 1 # can be used somewhere in the middle of a topic name and 1 the end. if you require more it's likely best to re-evaluate the topic naming or simply use *.

A valid format would be:

• MyGarage*.Rental.Cars.#.Internal.*.#
• #
• etc

An invalid format would be: MyGarage.#.Cars.#.Internal.*.# We use two #'s in the middle of the topic here which is not allowed.

[EventListener]
public class MyEventHandler{

    [WildCardHandler("MyTopic.#")]
    public async Task Handle(MyEvent @event){
        // do stuff
    }

}

Publishing events.

To publish an event simply inject the IBrerPublisher into your class.

public class MyEventPublisher{

    private readonly IBrerPublisher _brerPublisher;

    MyEventPublisher(IBrerPublisher brerPublisher){
        _brerPublisher = brerPublisher;
    }

    PublishEvent(){
        _brerPublisher.Publish("MyTopic", MyEvent)
    }
}

I want to contribute!

As of now we'd greatly appreciate more Example projects & unit-testing of the library.

notes:

• No global usings
• Use SonarLint
• Rider/ReSharper default styling preferred
