NEventStore PollingClient does nothing

For my next project we’ll use Event Sourcing. Therefore I’m spending some free time in looking at NEventStore, a persistence agnostic Event Store for .NET.

One of the features of NEventStore is a built-in PollingClient allowing you to poll the Event Store for the latest commits. However when I tried to test the PollingClient nothing happened?!

Here is the code I was using:

No exception was thrown, however when I browsed through the Output window in Visual Studio I noticed the following message:

A first chance exception of type 'Newtonsoft.Json.JsonSerializationException' occurred in NEventStore.dll

It seems that the PollingClient immediatelly tries to deserialize the committed events, as I didn’t include a reference to the assembly containing the Events, the deserializer (silently) fails.

To fix it, the only thing I had to do was adding a reference to my Events assembly.

Kubernetes–Limit your environmental impact

Reducing the carbon footprint and CO2 emission of our (cloud) workloads, is a responsibility of all of us. If you are running a Kubernetes cluster, have a look at Kube-Green . kube-green is a simple Kubernetes operator that automatically shuts down (some of) your pods when you don't need them. A single pod produces about 11 Kg CO2eq per year( here the calculation). Reason enough to give it a try! Installing kube-green in your cluster The easiest way to install the operator in your cluster is through kubectl. We first need to install a cert-manager: kubectl apply -f https://github.com/cert-manager/cert-manager/releases/download/v1.14.5/cert-manager.yaml Remark: Wait a minute before you continue as it can take some time before the cert-manager is up & running inside your cluster. Now we can install the kube-green operator: kubectl apply -f https://github.com/kube-green/kube-green/releases/latest/download/kube-green.yaml Now in the namespace where we want t...

DevToys–A swiss army knife for developers

As a developer there are a lot of small tasks you need to do as part of your coding, debugging and testing activities.  DevToys is an offline windows app that tries to help you with these tasks.
