Strawberry Shake GraphQL Client–Update client after changing schema

I blogged about the Strawberry Shake Graphql Client before and today it is my go to tool in .NET when consuming GraphQL API’s. But I always forget the steps to take when the consumed GraphQL schema has changed. So this is a reminder for myself.

Add the CLI tools

It can be that the CLI tools are not yet installed. In that case we should run dotnet tool restore first. This will read out the tool manifest and install any missing tools:

>dotnet tool restore

Tool 'strawberryshake.tools' (version '12.0.1') was restored. Available commands: dotnet-graphql

Restore was successful.

Now we can invoke the graphql update command. This will read out the .graphqlrc.json configuration file and updates the local schema.graphqlfile.

>dotnet graphql update

Download schema started.

Download schema completed in 1328 ms

If we now build our application, the Strawberry Shake Client code generation will be triggered and new / updated C# code will be generated.

.NET 8–Keyed/Named Services

A feature that a lot of IoC container libraries support but that was missing in the default DI container provided by Microsoft is the support for Keyed or Named Services. This feature allows you to register the same type multiple times using different names, allowing you to resolve a specific instance based on the circumstances. Although there is some controversy if supporting this feature is a good idea or not, it certainly can be handy. To support this feature a new interface IKeyedServiceProvider got introduced in .NET 8 providing 2 new methods on our ServiceProvider instance: object? GetKeyedService(Type serviceType, object? serviceKey); object GetRequiredKeyedService(Type serviceType, object? serviceKey); To use it, we need to register our service using one of the new extension methods: Resolving the service can be done either through the FromKeyedServices attribute: or by injecting the IKeyedServiceProvider interface and calling the GetRequiredKeyedServic...

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...
