Featuring: Brady Gaster (@bradygaster)

A

A

B

There we are hey, what's.

A

B

On uh we're doing all kinds of crazy stuff today, so uh yeah we've got here. Let me uh mute this I am connecting for my mac. Also, I've got my windows machine hosting we've got stuff all over. Welcome. Brady you've been on a few times before yep. Okay, we are on the asp.net community stand up. We are today going to be digging into api features for net developers, which is all kinds of stuff right.

C

Sorry hunter just painted me: oh.

B

My gosh, I can write.

C

At the same time,.

B

C

We have been doing a lot.

B

Of api stuff, why don't we use this time for me to show off those community links? Yes,.

D

B

Yep there's good stuff today, so this time I kind of uh asked around in the community, because you know we have a lot of kind of the usual suspects folks that post a lot of great stuff. um This time I asked around like hey if you've got any cool links, share them with me, and I got some some cool new ones today. So let me see, we've got well, we featured anthony before, but anthony gioretti he's done, some really cool blog post series on apis and cool stuff. There here he's talking about making options immutable.

B

So that is a cool feature in just asp.net core in general. Is all the kind of things you can do with your options, and um so here's here's the thing about. You know pattern for using immutable options. um So uh you know just a nice, nice cool tip here um and I'm going to. We already talked about this beforehand, we're going to run through these kind of quick, because we want to allow enough time for for all the demos.

B

So this is going to be a bit of a parade of fun stuff today um and uh so we'll be going a little bit quick. All right. We've got adam store and he's talking about using project tie to run.net worker services and yeah.

B

So exactly so, project high is really cool for like bootstrapping and running a bunch of stuff running, and you know part of the, like part of the pain of running things that are like complex applications with multiple microservices and all that is just kicking it all off and orchestrating it and stuff, and worker services are also something that can be a pain to do right and orchestrate.

B

You know correctly so um so cool to see this and it's neat to see. You know I had assumed when I started playing with tai that it was going to be all about the deployment and all about kubernetes and docker, and all that you know cloud deployment stuff, it's all about local dev. It really makes the local dev story so much easier. So that's um that's been really cool to to just kind of learn here.

B

So here he's talking about doing that, and um I mean super easy to do what I was shocked by when I, when I do um you know when I create services with tai, is like I'm expecting, I'm going to be writing a hundred lines of yaml and then it's like uh no like that's it so here the only magic is using the worker template, um creating it using the worker template and then ty run. It's like.

B

Yeah, so really really cool stuff.

B

So let me see uh so martin, so I just you know shout out to martin and team on this asp.net contrib. They do this uh oauth providers thing, and so the thing we're featuring today is that already the asp.net core um five support so with the rc1 dropping like just yesterday, um they've already, you know released the support for it.

B

So what's really cool with this system is uh the team and with a lot of help from the community, has these providers for all of this stuff right so doing authentication and last week we had a show where we had the identity team on and and they were showing, you know, microsoft, identity.web and they were showing stuff that primarily works really well with azure.

B

You know azure, b2b and b2c, and but if you're using anything else, um this is like a pretty good drop in, and I mean this is ridiculous: the amount of providers that they provide support for.

C

So are these providers that sit on top of microsoft identity web exactly uh no.

B

I don't think it's identity. Well,.

C

Okay, okay, yeah.

B

um So it it sits on top of the like the security.

C

B

Yeah, so it's providers at that level.

C

That's pretty awesome, I mean we use. You know one of the great ways that you can use microsoft identity web is like if you wanted to extend a power platform app or a logic app, and you want it to be auth. You could put that inside of your api and then the token just flows. So that's another option.

B

Yep yep cool, you know one thing that I've seen over time is like with all these. You get the standards and then every single provider kind of wants to value ad on top of it, and they want to own your identity in just some special way. You know, and so then.

D

B

End up with okay: well, here's our special! You know: implementation of open id connect or whatever it is right, and so it's nice to have these kind of tested um things with regular releases like this is ridiculous. How fast they got this release out so yeah yeah! That's.

C

B

Yeah um and actually I'll switch these around just because it flows better. um This is cool too damian bowden here he's got identity server for vue.js, so damian is another person who writing these great posts and updating them. You know, and it's like I've been guilty over time of, like hey I'll, kick out a post, and then you know three years later go check out the comments and be like oh shoot.

B

You know like it got out of date and people are like not able to use it anymore and damien is just a star keeping his stuff up to date. So he writes these posts here. You'll see this is 2019 and then he's gone through and updated it right. So this is updated with all the new stuff, so just really cool to see that yeah, uh here's a cool uh series from fayez and he's he's doing all this stuff on graphqlwith.net core. So here he's at part 11 and um you know just really cool to see.

B

This is all there's code for all of these. You know great like so you go through and you dig in and you'll see that there's actual code samples in these. So this is a really good. You know deep dive into graphql with backing code to match so you'll see on all of these they're they're.

B

All you know, here's the repository link and you go in and you can see all the stuff right so nice great, especially if you're someone like me that needs to see the code to learn this is this is a really cool series here.

B

This is cool. This is from rahul and he's got a series on youtube and it's just a really nice. You know series this was recommended by the community and uh it's great to see these. So these are a series of you know: 10, 20, minute videos and just kind of going in explaining really important concepts. Middleware dependency, injection logging, routing- you know all this stuff so great to see uh this is cool from from uh gosh.

B

I I just remember him as papa string and then I have to go and dig around, because I forgot to tell mark downey, I'm sorry mark um so so mark writing about uh dot, net, monitor and collecting dumps. So we had sebastian on, I believe, a while ago to show off.net monitor- and this is this is cool.

B

Where he's talking about using that and just collecting dumps on anything, so just really really great to be able to anywhere, you know, collect a dump without having to go through and install and diagnose and stuff, especially if you're doing things like you know, cross-building against linux or whatever right. Oh, it's cool stuff.

B

This is neat. This is um this is an update for ant design. So one of the neat things I'm seeing people do with blazer is they're building components that wrap design, libraries or design frameworks.

B

So here ant design is something that I had not really dug into before. There's a lot of, they actually have a really cool website here and it's it's a bunch of different components, um close this out here. So a bunch of cool, um just all sorts of components like, for instance, charts, and um so you know, then uh I have to dig around a bit, but they have they have some really cool charts and uh all different kinds of stuff.

B

um So so the team, let me see, I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong so ant design is also it's a it's a popular, just kind of a framework based thing like information based form layouts, it's a whole design language. This was some of the stuff I was actually looking for before. So, for instance, these components and you'll see they have components for react, angular view- and it's neat to see also um with uh you know, support for blazer here too so anyhow, let me see if I can quickly.

B

Their docks here are really just nice, um so you can go through and dig through all this stuff too. So I just love seeing these component-based libraries and then people, here's what I was digging for before. um So you know people building out these nice libraries and then just wrapping uh doing blazer wrappings for them cool uh anchor navigation for a blazer apple application. So um draw writing about an issue you can run into where you're you're doing like an a tag element and, if you're doing uh fragment navigation. This is something this whole fragment.

B

Based. Navigation is a new uh feature. That's just been getting added into chromium-based browsers, and that can cause issues, um especially in case of a server. He talks through the issues here like in a server-based application dealing with the signalr connection.

B

um So then he he talks about wrapping using a component and kind of simulating the anchor based navigation there. All right you last one. This is really cool, so I've featured some recently from david brock, some cool posts on. um I think he did tie and he's done some blazer. This is really neat because he's actually writing about css isolation. This is a new feature in blazer that they just showed off when they were on the show in august and he's actually written a good enough post and offered to just contribute it into the docs.

B

So there's a pull request running if you look in the in the docs as well, where he's? Actually, you know here he's written a blog post, but he's actually this is going to be converted into documentation as well, so the whole idea, yeah, very, very cool and- and just you know, like blog posts, are great, but they get out of date and they're like there's only so many people that's going to read them, you get them on the docks and the amount of traffic. Those docs get is huge.

B

You know, and it's just so huge kudos to you dave. This is really really cool, um really good, post and explaining some of the stuff like we. We had the team on here and they were talking about how they kind of followed standard patterns that they'd seen for css isolation in other frameworks, other front end frameworks, and so you get these kind of interesting, looking um ids and stuff, um but uh so you know, then explaining just all the things about how the isolation works and all that stuff.

B

So I'm looking forward to see this turned into the full docs and again thanks dave for contributing that two final links. I've got for you, one awesome, one from my teammate nish. uh This he's posting about a free ebook. This is blazer for web forms developers.

B

I see a huge opportunity for web forms, developers who are used to building with components and setting properties and working with events and all that component based development. Blazer is a really nice match a nice fit for that. If you've never really just gotten the hang of razer and mvc and even razer pages doesn't feel natural for you, and you know, web forms like moves very clearly and maps very cleanly to blazer. So um we had jeff on here recently talking about his components.

B

Web form components that help map things over, and then this ebook is is incredible. So there's the pdf that you can download and- and you know, being very clear, like web forms- are still supported. You got good web form stuff. You don't have to rewrite. You don't have to you know change over, but if you do, there are advantages to being on the latest greatest stuff. Blazer does some really cool stuff for you? um If you do want to get on blazer, then this is a great book for that.

B

So there's pdf and then there's also all this online stuff and talking about things you know state management. How do you map over from from things like view state? You know, how do you deal with forms and validation?

B

um And there are you know there are some razer components that map over to your web forms components and stuff, but so this is great. This is official guidance. This is a full-on e-book, really good stuff. So let's go last one I got for you. um This is uh the blog post on asp.net core updates in dot net five rc one thanks stuart for the happy birthday wishes, also in the chat there um for folks that have been uh you know, following or regular viewers of net community stand up.

B

This is not gonna, be new surprises. You've seen these demoed on here, but it's it's. It's uh really cool to see this all shipping in an rc.

B

um So here are all this crazy, blazer stuff, and you saw these demos in august um and then just some some other cool things, I'm not sure if this one, if we'll get a demo on something like that- and maybe something like that, so some some fun api stuff um and uh you know just uh and then this blog post kind of goes into some depth, also some cool stuff with performance. um So I'm excited to see. Webassembly continuing to um to you know, get get uh just keep cranking on that performance stuff.

B

um So, anyhow, there's uh all the it's a long post and we've been through these a lot of these things on recent community stand-ups. I want to give enough time for brady to show off his magic. So I'm going to switch over to you but a reminder for people that are that are new here or forget, or whatever I will be sharing all these links out, they'll be in the show notes they will be in the chat. They will be emailed to your um significant others. They will be.

B

um They will be stuck under your um your doormat in the morning when you wake up so.

D

B

Is all the community links? Thank you community for doing awesome things over to you brady. What do you got.

C

How's it going everybody happy birthday, john. Thank you. uh I was not able to get to the party store later uh earlier this weekend, so I don't have any backgrounds or.

B

Moons or anything.

C

B

Were chatting about this, I was like this is. This is part of my birthday party to hang out with my friend brady. I.

C

Appreciate that.

C

I have to applaud your bravery, inviting me to come on your birthday.

C

It's it's funny that I think he's done. Six uh tech checks with me to make sure that if I have any surprises he could they could figure it out first, but either.

B

He hasn't figured it out or.

C

I don't have any so.

B

I got to bring up the screenshot that I did from yesterday and I gotta share this out again. This is this is amazing stuff. This is what our first tech check. Look like I'll go ahead and share my screen.

B

So that's me on the left and that's brady on the right, and then I was like. Are you messing with me? Is this? Is this? Are you so.

C

Anything to clean up it was rather frustrating considering like two hours before that I had done the same thing with mads. Everything was fine.

C

It was kind of weird water. What was I drinking uh water so yeah all right, let's dive right in okay. Do you want.

D

Me to share my.

C

Screen, let me do this. uh I have not used stream yards so go ahead. You share your.

A

C

All right, so the first thing I want to do is flip over to the uh the blog post that I actually didn't know if john's gonna show uh so scroll down a little bit in here and what you'll see is that we've made some pretty significant updates to the uh the web api template or, as I like, to call it the asb net core http api template.

C

So uh we've made some some significant changes to it, some of which we've been talking about making for some time, uh we've essentially dialed in uh open api by default. So not only do we include the swashbuckle asp.net core nuget package, but we also go ahead and wire it up in configure services, and then we wire it up in configure now. What does this mean for you? Well, if you're an azure developer. Like me, one of the things that it means is when you right click publish from within visual studio.

C

We see that your project is uh emitting, uh swagger or open api and I'll just use the terms back and forth, because yeah um so in the this particular release. The uh 16 7 and 16 8 release of vs 2019.

C

We actually noticed that you've got a reference to swashbuckle asp.net core and we go ahead, and we add this additional tick here on your publish flow so that the last step is we actually import that swagger file into your api instance, and then you can use it in logic, apps or whatever else. Any kind of integrations that you want to do.

C

We've also uh enabled a better f5 experience. uh One thing that used to bother me in the old web api template is you hit f5 and you get a blank page because you have to spin it up in a browser um and then we improved that a little bit a little bit and we made the the f5b the get for your your web api. But when you start talking about your posts, it gets weird. You know what I mean. So we went ahead and made the swagger ui page, the start page.

C

So that's like a totally smooth out-of-the-box experience uh getting started. So uh any questions so far about that from you, john, you wanna talk about it at all.

B

No, I'm not seeing any just uh yeah electric havoc saying you know it's swagger default very helpful to start out so yep. What I'll do is I'll. Oh good, sorry,.

C

B

Just great to see quick to get started and simplify things.

C

It really is: uh we've got a video of it's about a minute uh for you to go from file new project all the way through, but I don't want to like you watch a video. I want to show it to you. So what I'll do is I'll switch over here and then I'll log in? If I can remember my password on there and that's the other demo, I want to show you that we'll get to in a minute.

C

So for now I'm going to hide that and I'm going to hide that and what I'm going to do is just open up a new instance of vs and I'm using the preview bits so you're going to see some stuff that you'll eventually see. I guess, is a good way to put it.

C

So what I'll do here is just say, create a new project and I'm going to go ahead and do an asp.net core web api project go ahead and click next here and I'll just call it weather service and I'm going to click next here. But what I want to point out is I'm going to change this to 5.0 preview and you'll. See here that it's checked by default, so I'm going to leave that checked because I'm a web api developer, oh and I'll, put it in a different place. So.

B

You got that check box because you had selected the web asp.net core web api template.

C

Correct but let me be very clear: uh the 5.0 preview.

B

C

So that's only in the 500 rc one, so you can do this from the command line as well. You could do.net new web api and if you don't pass it, a uh true switch for the no open api switch. It's kind of a double negative.

E

C

E

B

One thing that's cool with those is that they do run on top of, like it's all command line available right. So it's stuff, that's in the templates, but in order for that to work in visual studio, you can all do all this in command line. You could you can work anywhere with it.

C

Exactly so, what john's saying is, if I go here and I say, dot net new web api do dash h. Can you blow that up a bit yeah sure I think I can.

B

Can I oh, I think I think, control scroll or.

C

Oh just like that yeah there we go so if.

F

C

Oh good, that's good! Okay! So if you see here no open api uh by default, it's false. So that's a double negative again. The idea is, we want you to use open api if you're building uh rest apis, because it enables a lot of stuff. um I took a joke around that asmx files taught folks how to do uh description after the fact yeah. So so, if I were to look in the project, you'll see here just to show you the changes, so there's the first one you get that uh project reference.

C

uh The second thing is in startup cs, we go ahead and we dial in this is essentially the default. uh The default now is, if you just use, add swagger gen with it with no parameters. It'll actually imply d1, v1 and then the name of your uh assembly. So that's a fix. The awesome folks over swashbuckle made to make it easier to get started.

B

Yeah because, like just stupid, paper cuts like that right having to specify a name of assembly it's like do. I really have to do this. Yeah.

C

Yeah, but if you want a diversion you know this is where you'd want to do all that versioning v2, v3, et cetera, so okay people point that out um now, if I scroll down here, I want to kind of point this out, so you'll notice that this is inside of the is development block. Okay, the the reason for that is, I work with barry, dorens and barry's. Very security minded um and barry and anybody's very security-minded, probably wouldn't want that description to be published to production.

C

You know I mean um he would also probably be very upset if we published the swagger ui to production, because then you know you could log into it and if there was no security on your api, you could test it out. So I just want to you know: let everybody know we did this inside of the year's dev block just to protect you if you forget to do the deployment, so if you forget to turn it off, so I had.

B

A real quick question as you're doing this um so destinationhub dub said they created a project yesterday and didn't get this. I I'm guessing they likely. So you need to have if you're doing command line. You should see that um or if you're doing visual studio, you need to be running. The latest preview right.

C

Yeah and I am running like latest preview- yeah internal, so I apologize. If you see some new things here, um most of it's going to be in 16 8 that you'll see today. uh So I'm not too worried. But uh if you are, you know if you've got rc1 installed, you should see uh the this by default. Already cool. Okay, you might want to check your global json. You might be running 3-1 and not know it. I do that sometimes so.

B

Okay, yeah they're saying it was cli.net new web api.

C

Okay, well, if you want to reach out, um we can post my twitter. We can talk about this uh on twitter or you can.

B

Email it and get.

F

B

C

Yeah, okay, I want to make sure it works, so yeah yep uh any other questions on this. I didn't want to switch to that and go into infinity mode again.

B

uh One other question was just: uh do you need to add swagger, nugets or anything to the project, or is that that's automatically included.

C

That's automatically included. If I go back over here to the weather api cs, proj you'll see right here, we've already got it so wonderful. We've already had that and then- and that was a fantastic partnership with the folks who run the swashbuckle uh uh nuget package. We we work pretty closely with them. uh They've been implementing some some fixes along the way to kind of make life easier for our devs. um So anything like that, you know please reach out to me and I'll communicate it. You know anything.

C

We have to swashbuckle folks they're super responsive on github when it comes to any issues that need to be filed. So I would always encourage you to go there because they're they're great cool, it's a great open source project, so yeah and we're gonna. I know there are probably some end swag users out there. I've already sent uh rico suiter the uh the person who owns uh n swag we've got a couple of emails going back and forth. I want to eventually add support, front swag in this as well, so you can pick either one.

F

Cool all right.

C

Any other questions, no that's.

B

C

Here's the other thing: okay, other thing I'll show you that I'm excited about in here is: I want to open up, launch settings, json and you'll, see here that we've got this launch url set equal to my swagger uh ui page. If you turn that off, you probably want to change your swagger ui page um I'll, leave it on for now. But the idea here is like when I hit f5 instead of me, going to like a json payload 404, oh yeah, r4fr I'll, go.

D

C

A pretty ui page and I'll be able to party on it. So I'm going to go over here and I'm a kestrel person so I'll just get a customer and.

B

I'll hit f5, because that was always a problem in the past right when you f5 on an api project, there's no default url for it and it's correct.

C

B

Could just go to the.

C

Get uh in the in in the old days it was a 404 yeah.

B

C

A plain white page I like this- this is good. This is pretty. This is nice yeah, so now we can go here and I could I could go and I could just click try it out and then I can just hit. Execute and you'll see the payload right here. That's so nice and what's super cool about.

B

It and that's all generated from your api, so, as you update your api, it's going to keep up to date with that. That's.

C

Correct, that's absolutely correct. um I.

B

C

Want to talk a little bit about that in here, uh so let me get a break point just to kind of show you what I'm getting at. If I go into here and I hit execute there, we go so we're already. You know I'm already debugging, it's a lot easier than you know having to open up. You know a third-party product or anything else. I can just just go crazy.

C

um What I'll do here, just just to be really lazy frankly, is I want to take this code and I'll paste it here, and this is something I've seen a lot of people. Do you know they? They want to get started with this and they uh they just.

B

Question here on, the payload payload is beautified or raw.

C

If the payload is beautified or raw uh I'll show you right now, so uh it is, I don't think it is beautified on the output. If you look at the the swagger ui page, it will be beautified inside the ui, so okay, um but if I were to just do a get on the api. No now I do have an extension installed in my browser that will format my json.

B

So honestly, I wouldn't want it to assume like I, I wouldn't want it to change. You know what I mean, I'm I'm okay with it doing that in like a nice swagger ui, but not in the payload. I'm with you.

C

I'm with you and it won't format in the payload unless you specifically go in and ask it to, but this is this: is the swagger ui doing that uh now what I can do here? This is kind of cool, so I can go and see how it will show me the schema down here and I'm not gonna, go through the process but see it's gone ahead and it furtifies my post as well. Nice.

E

B

E

C

So if I go into mvs and I'll scroll down here,.

C

So we can mouse over this and there's my forecast so yeah, that's a lot easier than you know, open up a third party program or very good, whatever very good. I.

B

Think you need to update your weather api to include air quality, but that's a that's scope creep a bit. That's true! That's.

C

True and if you wanted to give somebody your swagger, you know it's right here, it's right there in the url. So let's go right in the ui. It's kind of cool, so you've already got that and then, if I were to no I'm not going to do the whole publish flow. But what I would show you here is if I right click, publish this and go into azure um and I go and.

D

C

I create a whole bunch of new stuff. uh I could go to create a new one here that create a new api. Essentially you'll, I'm not gonna. Do it all right now, you'll get the idea. If I were to do a app service on containers, I could create the container registry, create the app service and then, since I've got that swashbuckle asp.net core reference in here I'll see this api management light up, and I can go all the way out, which is nice, because so for people.

B

That aren't familiar. What what does api management add to just deploying an ap, an asp, app.

C

What does api management add? Okay, let me uh flip back over here. um The first thing is like this is my api management instance. uh It's currently empty we'll get to that later. um One thing that I can do is I could output like if one once I bring my api into api management, I can output it into open api, v2, v3 or v3 yaml, and I can give it to you and you can do things like generate clients for it.

C

Okay, at the same time, I could use it in a logic app, so I could I could. I could basically drag and drop my api into a logic app, and it literally shows me all the apis and all the operations that I can call visually and then, when I were to like kind of make a call to one, if you can remember, uh what's it what's the visual programming stencil or something it's kind of like you'd, literally just connect the dots, oh yeah, like broccoli style right like broccoli style.

C

uh You can't see it on here, because this is a personal uh subscription and I don't have access to a power platform back-end. But if.

D

C

Access to a power platform back-end, I could right-click my api whenever I have one in api management and I could say export that would export it to power platform. And now I can go and I can write a power app that uses that api.

C

uh That's an area that I'm working a lot right now, with the power platform team to kind of help developers extend their power platforms by building functions or rest apis using web api plus open api, so that you can ingest it in apim and then kind of glue it together and build complex, workflows and whatnot.

F

B

One other thing- and I don't know anything more about it than just that- I have seen it in the past and I just googled it up real, quick, but there's also some api management support for securing apis too right right, yeah access management, stuff.

C

Correct I could go in uh using what's called api management profiles. I could like go in and I could specify all the way down to specific users or roles in an aad tenant, and I could say these people have access to call this api method. These people, don't, if you are, uh if you have a business, then your business is your api.

C

Like I always think of stripe, you know the credit card company uh there's a lot of companies out there that their their full business is their is their api and people recall um if you're in that business. Api management is great, because what you can do is create all these apis and api management, and then you can create what are called products and api management, and you can give people product you know subscriptions, so you might pay four dollars a month for 10 calls a month.

C

You might pay 40 a month for unlimited, and I can put you in these different products and control access to the apis based on your subscription to my product. So this goes back to.

B

The whole like a lot of what cloud hosting offers you is um sure I could write that code, but it's not my core business right. So if I, if I have an api and the api is giving real estate quotes or weather services or whatever my core value is weather services and not managing subscription stuff right.

B

So that's a nice thing, I'd like to outsource and let somebody else worry about it. Yeah.

C

Exactly just a I might have a demo out here, so I want to open up my work as your portal, which means chaos, never know. Sorry,.

B

C

Surprising you with it, I.

C

So what I'll do is I'll go over here to my logic, apps, and you see this order. Fulfillment flow that I have. This was kind of an experiment that we did to show opportunities for like power platform, logic, apps and teams working together, so I'll just edit, the workflow and I'll kind of show you the idea. So in this case uh I've got another thing that happens uh and when it happens, it'll fire an event grid event, so that event grid fed fires, and it causes this entire uh workflow to actually occur.

C

Okay, yeah so first thing that I do is a couple of logic: app steps like I'll parse, the event jason I'll initialize, essentially an order id variable. uh This is a store. That's essentially getting orders from uh you know like online orders.

C

The first thing that happens is I'll call an azure function and that azure function will put a card into a teams channel. That basically tells me, go check the inventory and make sure you have enough of this product.

C

Okay, this azure function is behind an apim instance. So all.

D

C

Do is like go here, add an action uh right here. I would look for api management azure api management. You see that I have a few of them if I click on contoso apis, I've got card functions and I've got orders and I've imported the swagger pet store into it. If I were to go here to online orders now you see all of these web api methods that I can call.

B

See, I'm actually selfishly very happy to see this because behind the scenes, james montemagno and I manage all these shows and now we're doing. It shows like every day of the week and james has hooked up all this stuff with power automate and we have planner and we have all this stuff. But we hit limits of what we can do with those, and we really do need to build some api back-ends and also we could. We could interact with scheduling things and you know all that kind of stuff.

B

So this would be the place where we could hook into that.

C

It really is, you can do a lot here and like what you saw here was this was me calling a function uh if I open this up now. This is when I'm calling my web api. I'm calling my function, I'm calling my web api, I'm calling my web api.

F

C

So when people say why do I care about api management? Well, this is a pretty good reason.

B

Yeah exactly and being able to like manage access to stuff and like what I find when I write like yeah, you can do that all all yourself, but then you half of your application, is managing tokens and likes. Do this and then do this and it's like or not like, don't write any of that code and just let the platform handle it exactly.

C

You just tell the platform to it um so that that was that was. This is kind of the idea here, and this was one of those stories where, like this company already has their apis, they want to extend their business capability to use teams to like get messages when things happen in the store, so the flow seemed to be a good way to do that. So we just literally stitched all the apis up, add a couple functions and party on it and all good. So it was exciting.

C

um You'll see, oh cool.

F

Yeah you'll see.

C

That I have this thing open right here, so I want.

G

C

Flip to this tab, because we've been also doing some work on the http rebels. Now I have not installed the rebel over here, so I can't show you that demo today, but one thing that we did in the project template was, you know we changed the the root us url for the site so that it's whack swagger. You.

B

C

In the in the um launch settings.

B

C

So we've! So if you were to use the reple and just kind of do f5 into the rebel uh it wouldn't be able to it, wouldn't be able to you, wouldn't be able to cd through your api endpoints, because it would try, it would actually hit the swagger html instead of the the endpoint.

C

So we recently made a change to kind of complement the rc1 template change so that if you have rc1 installed so you've got swagger on by default and the swagger ui page by default and you're using the http reply is like a browser.

C

So when you hit f5 you just launch into the rebel, if you do all that it'll just work, so uh tim mulholland uh worked a little extra uh once we figured this out like we got it, it's gotta work out of the box, so we went ahead and put it put a tweak in there we're thinking about extending it. So if you wanted to override it in your own stuff, you could, but we didn't want to give you these two great new features and have them collide. So.

E

Yeah yeah, that makes sense.

C

So um but I'll stop sharing for a minute and see if there's any questions or if you have anything, there's.

B

One and I'm not sure if this will make sense, I didn't completely get. Does this handle automatic retries like poly, I'm not sure what the question is referring to, if that's to api management or to.

C

Yeah is that api management, or is that specific to that.

B

Because that's a client concern right and you've been showing all the api concerns correct, so yeah, okay! So so he's saying yes so so that would be api management.

C

I don't know if api management has built-in support for poly. um I do know that there's a there's an idea of using api management inside of kubernetes, so I think that's actually in the preview or g8 already, I'm not sure, but it's something. We've talked about as well like being able to incorporate api management types and capabilities inside of your cluster, um so people that, like api management, could get the api uh api service discovery type capabilities built in, but.

D

C

About api management in poly, um you could use the swashbuckle stuff that is in the current template and you could enlist in the poly middleware and those nuget packages. You'd be fine, they don't collide, uh but in terms of api management. Plus- probably I don't know, but that's a great question: I'd love to talk to ryan nowak about it and see what he thinks.

B

Okay, so I think actually, what he's saying there too is he says inside the designer so that, like actually inside the logic app and I think that's more of a place where you can't actually say like on this recurrency or if it fails like timeout or you can set that sort of stuff.

C

You can you can have control over that. I believe you can specify retries when you're doing http outbound calls inside of logic apps. I think that's one of the additional parameters that you can specify as a number of retries. I just I haven't done it so I don't know I would want to lie. Yeah.

B

I got it just while we're while we're showing that just because we're all nerds here I got to share my so. This is a way like behind the scenes. James and I james has set 99 of the set, but we have all these flows going.

B

That will say like, for instance, hey we've got a show coming up at 10, so this runs every friday checks if we've got a show scheduled, if not, it figures out some some variables, um because there's some some standard things and then it actually creates tasks in a planner that we have um so then it'll and then the way that I mark stuff off is I do it yeah cam's watching you know that form.

B

So when, when we fill in the the um actual form, then it like the next time that the scheduled task goes it'll say: oh we've already got one for that. So we've got all these because what we were doing every week was sending all these emails all the time saying like hey it's, you know, we don't have your thing yet or we're not scheduled or who do we have someone going for next thursday or whatever it is so this is.

B

We have all these things going on and there's it's a little complicated because it's doing stuff like it, it creates tasks and then it actually we upload thumbnails and it it uploads stuff into there. So so the question um when you are calling the api- oh, I didn't follow that. I don't know anyhow, so um it's kind of fun. Seeing how and then now like I've got some stuff where I do dot net thumbnails, so I actually have like a tiny glitch site where we go through and create these these things.

B

So you know like the speaker um and stuff, and so it's creating this stuff, um and it does this with svg and- and um you know, automation like it just creates. This is now a png. So it's it's um it's just kind of dorky stuff, but it's it's kind of that's called automated yeah yeah. uh The reason I showed that is because I can see some clear ways where, instead of manual steps here, even we could hook in with api management and do a lot.

C

More yeah, exactly cool um somebody, just posted termeters sweevil, just posted abm, supports uh inbound or outbound policies. That's what I was alluding to request. An endpoint and they've got.

F

C

F

As a category yeah.

C

Retry is a category, so that's good to know and they've got some cool tools wrapped around those policies as well. That's exciting to come.

B

So one one cool thing which, by the way you showed the swagger ui, which is really cool, um but then one thing you've been telling me about recently too, is that there's actually built into edge canary there's that kind of postman sort of feel too right.

C

There is uh yeah, let me uh let me see if I can do that party on that. Okay, just.

B

While we're geeking out on api stuff, this is something when you show me that I'm like that's it, I'm on canary.

C

Yeah, it's it's cool! uh It's actually out of canary now, oh.

D

That's right now.

C

It's in maine now, which is which is kind of a good thing. um I want to see if I've got it turned on. Let me see here hang on. Let me refresh sorry, sorry, john, that's not it! That is.

G

C

Yeah I got it, I got it turned on. Okay, let me show you this I'll get back to streaming yard. Sorry. So what john is alluding to is something that some friends of ours in the uh edge tools team have been working on. So this is just a. This. Is the front end of that uh logic, app that you saw a minute ago if people start putting orders in cards you're going to have to deal with a bunch of teams alerts, so you know whatever.

C

uh If I were to add some stuff here and then submitted order. You might see a team alert pop up here. If things are working right, they might not be working right. So if I were to go here and just open up my uh network, not my network, but my uh tools and just do kind of a quick refresh.

C

So what you'll see is that the page loads? So this is a blazer webassembly app, the page will load and then it will do a api call which you can see right here. So that's when I'm actually making a web api call back to my asb net core server host. Now, yep, I'm going to click that and you'll see a nice little window pop up. That'll show me, you know I can expand on the json if I want to.

C

But if I go over here and I right click it and I go, and I click edit and replay.

C

Now I can actually make a call right here and if I wanted to.

C

Make a call to the orders api and I can get all of those orders. If I wanted to, you know, call one and just get one builder back. I could, but if I think I've still got it turned on nope, I don't have it turned on anymore yeah.

B

I'll go ahead, one other thing people might not see down towards the bottom. There's actually an off thing there as well right, so what's really cool here is that it actually can preserve the auth, cookies and stuff as well correct.

D

B

Often, when you're doing whatever kind of testing you've got to juggle all these auth cookies and stuff, so this is really cool to be able to debug against the live service, even with your auth cookies set.

C

And it's cool: it's cool yeah! Now what I'll do here is I, I know my earl, so I'm just going to grab the url.

B

People are joking about your high tech site. That's selling, dvds and vcr.

C

Hey man kind of context, so now this is weird: okay, I'm just the the team's been great they've been really helpful, but did you know john that there is a command palette, much like the vs code command palette inside.

B

C

B

I did know that and the reason I knew it is because you can take screenshots with it.

C

Right so I do crazy, yep, it's crazy, so I do command shift p and you'll see just like in space. This thing opens up here and I can type open api.

C

I just paste in, and I think I have to do it like this and if I zoom out, let's see if I get lucky that worked, that might not work, um I might be doing it wrong.

B

So type um what so wait? What did you? What did you type there? I just pasted in everything so.

C

Place it in that's that went like this. What it does not it's not gonna, it's not gonna, expand it, but it will parse the swagger. Oh my gosh, that's the perfect. So.

B

Another thing, while you're in that command palette, just to show off type screenshot.

B

So I mean you can use all different kinds of screenshot, apps and stuff, and and now you have extensions installed, but this is a pretty quick way to do so, sometimes I'll go in and I'll edit, the dom delete out stupid ads or whatever, like format things, how I want and then just grab the screenshot right there. Oh.

C

That's groovy. I like that. That's pretty cool! I'm annoyed that I can't make this work there.

D

C

Recently, an article that came out about this tool here and uh hunter, and I had a couple conversations about it and then yeah yeah working kind of wondering. If I I do it like this.

C

That was going to ping me in a minute. What are.

E

C

My product, sorry, uh but it's in there, I've seen it work um and it's cool because you've kind of got that api testing gamut like right here you can party on it. So.

D

C

Was fun um so we have ideas on how to use that now that you've seen it if it gives you any ideas, feel free to reach out, because we'd love to you know see what we can do here. um It's been a fun partnership. It's been fun to kind of experiment with what we could do there so well.

B

Yeah and that whole thing you're talking about with the partnership, is so great right because nobody uses apis just by themselves like it's good, to have a rebel, but it's even better. If you can work with it in the browser right and you can be like you can do- that integrated testing using the great browser tools, instead of like everyone having their own separate tools and stuff.

C

B

Should we go on yeah? Well, so I know at some point: we wanted to show the connected services thing too.

C

All the connected services think yeah yeah. We we do want to chat but see the thing about the connected services thing is that you need a public url right like I had. I would have to give you like a public kind of a pain about it.

B

Maybe I have a solution, I sure hope so, because otherwise we'll just have to wrap up early.

C

Yeah, we don't want to wrap up early. um We can't wrap up for a little bit, so I have this experiment that I've been working on and I'm calling it tunneler, because you know why you have to call it that um so I've got this in a public repo I'll share the repel in a minute.

C

um But what we're doing in dev div is we're thinking about this idea of building a logic, app or building a power app where the the client is running on the open internet um and like I want to debug my api with that client calling it. But since that you know you gotta tunnel back to yourself and there's a lot.

D

C

You know solutions for that. um We want.

D

To again, it's like.

B

C

And growth is kind of the kind of the bmw, but there's a there's, an issue with ngrok that you know a lot of people know when they use it. Like you never know what your dns is going to be: it's it's a dynamic dns. Unless you want to pay for it, which I do yeah, it's a different conversation. um So whenever I hit f5, I don't know what that that url is going to be so that's kind of a kind of a pain nice.

C

Nice enough is that the anger folks have a localhost api that I can call irony um in this conversation who knew so. The idea with that is that I can actually tunnel my local host connection, which I've just started a tunnel and then greg tunnell back up. But people want that kind of experience on f5. So what I've started doing is working on some code. um I called it middleware at first and ryan nowak thanked me immediately and said: it's not middleware, um but um it's it's a host extension.

C

I guess is what we're going to call it now, and you can see here that hangs off the host. So you would go into program cs and you would put it after the build and before the run um and what happens is it'll configure a test tunnel uh using a series of builder arguments which we're going to look at here in a minute.

C

So the first thing I'll do is I'll, just I'll just hit f5 and when I hit f5 what's going to happen, is it's just gonna spin up my uh my project and run it in localhost and it's gonna go ahead and go ahead and reach out to ngrok and tunnel back and give me this url uh uh-oh. Let me do that again. Of course. That would happen.

C

I hit the wrong button. uh Let me do that again.

C

I'm gonna do this.

B

Without messing myself up you're by the way, so you're jumping back and forth between mac and windows here are you: are you running on a mac with the windows like.

C

Right over there, okay, so it's actually a real laptop that I happen to be running right over there. um So at this point, what I've done is I've. Actually, let me see if I can do this and not crash everything. How do I do this? John?

C

Oh, you can right click, okay, so.

H

C

What I'll do is I'll paste this in and I'll just go tiger v1 twigger dot jason. I think that'll get us yeah there we go so now. I can take that and I can. I don't want to do that. uh What I'll do is stop sharing okay, teens, which has all kinds of messages from mr hunter that nobody else wants to see right now, I'll paste in that url to you and I'll go back to stream yard and you'll.

B

Do something cool I'll do something so uh here I am on the mac. I've just copied that url yep, okay, so now um oops. So let's go ahead and copy. uh Let's switch over to here. So here I'm in I'm on my mac, I'm in a visual studio for mac and there's this connected services thing.

B

So now I'll do open service gallery and you talk me through if I'm doing anything wrong here, I'm go so I'm just in a simple console, app right. This is not even like an api project or anything exactly so, and this is available on vs mac. It's also in vs windows. um So, and one other thing to point out here is there was open api there's also grpc, which is pretty cool, so I'll go in and do add, and then here again tell me if I'm doing something wrong, oops, let's go.

C

B

What on earth did I do.

C

B

C

Then I don't need to.

B

I don't need to change the name space or the options, but one cool thing with this is, if I did these actually come right from the command.

B

Line did I drop for a second.

F

Yeah, you did, you did I.

B

Did okay? Well, anyhow, that's that was in the tools. So let's go back over here and now, I just say add right right. So I've got your swagger it's going out to the mighty internet. It's reading your swagger uh and I'm not running I'm running vs mac 8a! I don't know! If I have.

B

I guess it doesn't matter. It's just swagger, because I I don't have the latest greatest um dotnet five rc one in you. Don't.

D

Have that reference.

B

Added successfully, oh then cool said, thank you. Try up there um so now, if I go here to open apis.

B

Whoa, I now here's the thing I blew my um phone enormously, but so there's that- and I don't know it's doing- it's still doing stuff right because it's.

B

Hit retry there I don't know, what's going on.

C

B

Is so, I think it's still doing something.

D

C

That'll be frustrating.

B

Because I hear my fan humming like crazy.

C

I will say that this does pull down a rather large nuget package um yeah, so.

B

It it that could be, and this machine also is on um it's on wi-fi. So I don't know if there's so, it's not going to be in build output. I don't know.

F

uh Should I should I do a retry.

B

It's a little bit just hanging here and again, like I'll make all the excuses. This is on preview and I don't even know what the heck it's doing now. That's on wi-fi.

F

B

Oh that's interesting, too, dot net core. Here's the thing that it's showing over in the corner, whoa, there's all the api output.

B

Three packages added.

C

Oh you're back.

B

Oh did I drop for a while- oh my goodness, I'm not sure what's up today, okay, so it's added uh so now at this point I have um so now I could go in and use it right.

C

I think so yeah, I think it's. I think it's all good. I don't know what you're getting in terms of that error, but if you go to program cs uh essentially what you should be able to do at this point is like, and I don't know what it called your. I don't know what it called your uh namespace, but if you were to basically do console app one and do a dot, we could see what objects you've got inside of that all right, because you can kind of discover the apis and when it when it.

D

Gets the generation.

C

C

Dot and then you see swagger, client, dot and.

D

You'll probably need to move up the.

C

Swagger client.

C

So you want to create an instance of that. Oh.

F

Right right, right: okay, uh whatever uh yep.

F

C

That should be yeah.

F

C

C

That's weird: we could do this later. That's all.

B

I could add in a you, could added the using right. Okay, and I should also build, probably don't you think, yeah. I think.

C

So and the parameters we may need to set those.

B

There's no argument it can uh base url. Oh, I need to pass it as a string.

C

You need to pass it a string and it's the basically everything I gave you up to the first whack.

B

So it's everything up to there.

C

B

Yes, sir, without this, the whack, though right, correct, correct, okay,.

B

This is very much unscripted we're just going for it here, we're just trying all right and now it's still not happy.

C

What's the second, oh, you needed a new http client there. So.

E

You up in http.

C

Mm-Hmm you want to wrap that you want a new, open, http, client and stick it in there. You could probably.

F

C

Http client there, if you wanted to oh.

F

C

F

C

C

Yeah, don't do this at home folks.

F

No, this is completely just goofiness.

C

um If you say swagger client.

F

And I need some parentheses here right oops! Oh my goodness, john that's, okay,.

C

By the way, if you're joining late, it is mr galloway's birthday, yeah he's he's turning 29 today. So.

B

I know all right, okay, so now I could call so.

C

It looks like it didn't, actually get async get async.

C

And you would literally just you'd have to you have to await it, but yeah.

B

uh And I'd and it's returning something right um yeah. It will be.

C

Strange, really, you could, you could it'll be returning a uh it'll, be returning. Oh.

F

E

C

F

So if our return, whatever right.

C

And you can't wait here because you don't you're, not yeah. I got to fix all that so, but all we care about is that if you run it we'll see if you can actually hit that end point.

F

All right well, we'll see. I don't know about that.

C

I'll say you know you should stop.

B

20 I like this, so we have a good happy 29th birthday and then we have the good yeah 29 in hex.

C

B

There we go so there's something happening.

C

B

Monkey's null, I think we should stop the demo there. What do you think just just hit run? Let me see oh break point.

C

Look, let me let me share now, wait, wait, wait! This is on your machine. This is on my machine, so I'll share now.

C

And now, when I hit f5 now you.

B

Go back to sharing, oh, my goodness, uh sorry! Well, it um is it right.

B

No did I stop it.

C

Oh, you can do it again if you want to.

F

Here I think I didn't have a break point after that. Oh yeah.

C

Whatever we go boom boom and now I'll go over here and I'll. Just wait. Wait, wait, wait! F5,.

B

And back to me, and there I go, isn't it cool yeah in the top of the oh there's, my monkey, here's my products. We got.

D

A drum machine.

B

Yeah, I got a midi controller, so this is just to to run this back because there was a lot of goofiness and typing and stuff happening. But what went on is pretty neat. You on your machine created a new api.

B

You ran ngrok locally and then you've got some gastroware, that's running wrapping that and it it created that and then you got and you got your url. Your swagger url sent that to me and then I just ran it, and I used this new connected services thing to add it and it generated the client for me so like in here. If we look at my code, this swagger client is based on that that swagger definition exactly exactly so. The fancy so what's going on on your side is, is pretty slick.

B

Well, there's two cool things: there's the connected services thing and then later, if I wanted to go in and manage this like, I can go into the configuration and redo it and stuff which is pretty cool, but then- or I can add another one um exactly. I don't have to stop first correct.

C

So we just got a great question: isn't this like auto rest, exactly like auto rest? In fact, there's another version of this feature. That's an older version, that's well hidden inside of visual studio uh on windows, only uh the used auto rest. It's still in there.

C

This one uses some of the n swag stuff from ricoh and some internal code that we wrote as well to kind of augment the code that recode written, um but it's just great because we're using swashbuckle to generate this swagger document and then we are using rico stuff uh to actually generate code. So that's pretty cool. It's.

B

Pretty neat very cool, okay and then, and then so the neat thing you're doing too there with like ingrock's not hard to use, but it's pretty cool that you're kind of you're wrapping that in automatically can can you show that again, the stuff you're doing there.

C

I totally can't uh what I'll do I'm gonna go and share my screen, and I want to extend what I showed you just a little bit because you know demos are never finished just like software um and what I'm going to do is I'm going to close that down.

C

I'm actually going to stop my debugger and just to reiterate what I'm doing here is it's inside of program, uh and I just basically right here and you'll see the tunneler code, which we'll get to a little bit more deeply in a minute. But the idea is that this is a builder. I basically call configure test tunnel, that's going to pass a custom builder, and then I just use extension methods that extend that builder. So.

B

There you're using ngrok, but because of that syntax, I'm assuming that means you're, you could be using something else to also, but indeed handle.

C

That tunnel yeah- I could indeed so that I've only written the angry one, there's a lot of other tunnels out there uh if you use it the ngrok style tunnel somewhere else uh like a different product, I'd love to talk to you and see what we could do here again. We, this is just an experiment. This is literally just to start conversations.

C

um We want to build this inside of the tooling, but for now I just wanted to have something to be able to to kind of show uh like jonathan carter and some other folks that are going to be working on this just to kind of get the conversation going. So this is just an experiment to sing party on it today.

B

Yep and people are already asking, is better replacement for conveyor, and I I you know, there's a ton of different ones out there and grack is really nice. I have used a lot, but what I found when I was using it. There was no tool or asp.net api integration, so I was constantly going out and running a command line and then popping over and running my thing and it's back and forth and back and forth so so this is really nice to write.

B

When I run it, it's going to create that url for me and launch it.

C

Correct correct this: it's pretty cool because I mean this. This really doesn't create the url I mean ngrok is you know.

D

It's a service.

C

Or an app uh like a lot of other people have a lot of different ones they could use, uh but you know the idea is I wanted to make it. You know, give people this kind of capability today, but there's actually more that I could show you a couple of additional methods of the hanging off of there. So we talked earlier about um api management, so you'll see.

H

C

Couple of additional methods that kind of dangle off and I'll go ahead and start with this one um and I'm being very explicit about each name. In my case, I'm going to be using the swashbuckle uh generated open api template. Somebody else might want to use the end swag one. If there's another package I don't know about yet they might want to use that one as well, but the idea is in addition to having angr.

C

Now I want to spelunk into my code and all the middleware that I already have running in my app, and I want to use the existing swashbuckle stuff to get out my open api document. Why would I want to do that?

C

Because the next thing I want to do is go ahead and inject it directly in to azure api management. When I hit f5, um why would I want to do that? Well, you might be working on a logic app or you might be working on a power app.

C

I might be working on the api and you might want me to f5 my api so that you could try your flow out and see if your flow or your power up are going to work and you and I can work together in real time, because you know I'm a big, I'm kind of a real time fan you haven't heard.

C

um But what I'll do now is I'll just go over here to this api management instance? And just so you know, I'm not very trustworthy, so I'll just hit f5 and you'll see that there's no apis, not at all. uh What I'll do now is I'll just hit f5 and since I've dialed all this into my host as extensions to my host. What should happen is that when the kestrel starts it'll host my app uh the moment, my app is hosted and everything is live.

C

uh It tells my code that it's running and then my code goes. Oh well, I'm gonna, I'm gonna come back in and look at your api and I'm going to use the azure uh sdk for uh net and I'm going to go ahead and create create a new api in your api management instance that you may have uh told me to go talk to so what I'll do now is kind of that stupid pet track? You saw me do a minute ago with john, but I'll do it here.

C

So this is a case where I'm actually calling myself from api management and you'll see that I've gone ahead and done the work. But now, if I want to change my api shape around, I could go here and do control okay. Is it ctrl k? U that's it. uh I could do that and I could uh hit f5 again and since I'm doing a creator update uh any change that I make to my api. I don't have to go into the to the host code and change anything there. All it does.

C

Is it regenerates that open api using swatch buckle and then I take that new api and I ship it up and there's the new stuff.

B

So, okay, so so just to make sure I'm following all this. This is an api you're running locally, using the gaster where you're running and that we're going to create that that's a new term.

B

It's it's using ngrok to create a publicly callable api and then it's shipping, this up to api management, correct, and so now I could interact at the api management level if we're kind of collaborating together against the api management endpoints and it's handling it so you're running locally and debug, I'm running locally and debug and we're both like coordinating using ngrok and api management. You got.

C

It or whatever tunnel you happen to use and extend the tunnel or middleware to do it for you, so yeah.

B

C

Happens automatically. Here's what I like about this part is that, like I could work on v1 in my api, I could get it where I wanted to be. I could party on it, then I could go right here and I could do the publish thing that you've already saw me talk about.

C

I could publish that out to an app service running in azure and since I've got swashbuckle usb netcore installed, it's also going to do a re-import of my api, and what that would do is it would change this web service url to be my azure website's url, but everybody that has my api management url still works instead of them going to localhost.

C

Now they were just going to my deployed code. What that.

D

C

What that gives me the ability to do is to come in and do something like this, where I want to change my version, because I might have some new uh breaking guest or wear changes that are coming in. So what I would do is, I would add, a couple of new methods: again: control kd!

C

Do this? Okay? U, uh which is a lot harder inside of rdp uh now you'll, see that I haven't changed this. This is still the same still only running in in debug mode. Here I've changed my api to be a product two instead of a product one. If I just go in here and I hit f5, um what should happen is that I do all the same rigmarole jump on my ngrok tunnel. Then I use swatch buckles existing middleware to go ahead and parse out the open api.

C

Oh there, it is so I've got v2 which has three methods. I've got v1, which only has two methods so.

B

Okay, so you can handle versioning, you could have one thing running in production. You could have your end client running against your version. Two and that's running like here. You've got it in debug you you can hit break points. You can do all that stuff.

C

Yeah, you wouldn't want to do this outside of the book that would be yeah. Oh yeah,.

B

That's really handy, though, that api management giving you that kind of um abstraction to be able to do that kind of stuff. It's been fun.

C

And if you want to party on the code I'll share the earl here in a minute, um I'm not going to open the file up on air, but you would go into the launch settings json and the launch settings json uh is where you would set some environment variables.

C

Those are the same environment, variable names that are set if you're using the azure, cli or other tools, so the the implication is hopefully once I work a little bit more closely with john gallant and kind of use. Some of his uh as uh off middleware in the middle uh what'll end up happening is, if you have the azure cli installed and you're authenticated to an azure sub. um You would essentially configure this with your resource group and your api management instance, and it just uses that auth and you're off and running.

C

So you don't have to do any additional config. That isn't the case today. You'll see it inside of this sample api uh in the repo in the launch settings chase. So let's just press it and if you're interested- and you haven't guessed it already uh darn it secret's been given away. uh What I could show you here is this url, uh the brady gaster tunneler uh uh url, to my repo. um It's out there feel free to take a peek at it. Give me issues give me pull requests again. It's just an experiment.

C

um uh This is not in any way form or shape what we would be shipping if we were to be shipping, something uh if you were to ship something it would definitely be more robust than this um and use existing tech that you're familiar with, um but I'm open to ideas that people like it. So there's my thing. So if you want to find it very cool.

B

I mean that's part of the idea we do with this. The stand up is here's stuff we're working on here's some. You know stuff we'd, like feedback on that kind of stuff.

C

B

Great well, that was a lot of stuff. We've actually gone kind of long, so we should wrap up. um I shared the link out in the chat and I will add it to the um to the show notes uh in the description and in the um community links so wow. This was a lot of stuff, it sure was.

C

There's there's one other thing I wanted.

B

C

Wait there's more, there's wait, there's more there's.

B

C

Thing there's one more thing: I don't know how successful this one more thing is gonna, be today because we're running a little we're you're wrapping up a little early. I think you feel it coming, but uh I had a meeting scheduled and well there's maria. So that's good. We do have a few people joining in. So that's good! Oh let me let me share my screen here and see what nastiness I'm up to. Oh, no, who do we have? Who do we have here? We got mariah.

C

So let's see how many other people we can get in here, but we wanted to sing john happy birthday.

E

C

E

Everybody a meeting.

C

Invite but we're running a little early, so maybe they'll see the meeting, invite and they'll hop in so, um but uh are you having a good birthday.

B

C

B

What are you gonna do? I am. This is a great birthday whoa. I, like your background, maria it's been a long time we gotta catch up soon, um yeah, I am having a great birthday. I uh um it's been fun, so we celebrated. I actually share a birthday with my mom and my middle daughter. So all three of us have the same birthday today and so on saturday we uh did a social, distancing, dinner uh or a lunch, and that was really fun. Nice and.

D

B

Been low key, I've got I'm basically after this I'm off for the rest of the day, so that's got it. It's coming up.

C

Well, we we, uh we had a few other people that were going to come, but I sent the invite for like 11 25, so.

B

Oh well, I mean if we want to hang out, I don't mind, we don't have any questions.

C

We can answer questions.

B

Sure yeah do people have questions here, I'm sending somebody asked where these um shows are at. uh Oh, my goodness, hey.

B

Beth wait: beth is muted, actually brady. I I think if you've got audio coming through, teams is not going into the. Is it not going in it.

C

H

Oh, no, it's not going in.

C

Let me try this. Let me try this.

H

B

Do I he does all the fancy things with the audio? Where do I do it.

C

Is it going to work device settings device.

B

C

Speaker all right, try that again.

B

um Oh okay, it's showing something there! So now I think you got to go into virtual.

C

Do I have to go in and turn it up? Oh yeah, try again say: hey.

G

A

It works, it works hooray.

B

I hear you, you have a cool echo, I don't know if I can hear john. I don't.

C

B

C

Oh, I can't hear.

H

C

They can't hear you all right.

H

B

I guess this is the point where we sing and even though we don't quite.

C

B

Everybody any other questions, hmm any other questions. So there was a question. How do I enable postman in edge? So I think what they were saying was that cool demo you showed with the.

B

uh What you would do is.

G

D

Open up the uh developer tools, so you would open up the edge.

C

What you want to do is you want to look. I think you hit f1, it's.

E

Kind of a weird keycap, I think you hit f1 and you basically pull up the experimental stuff and when you pull up experimental, there's a check box that says enable network console cool um and you can check.

C

E

Okay, awesome, so I'm.

B

Wearing the t-shirt, that's the poster for beth has, in the background it's pretty cool. Oh it's! The code.

B

Brady, I can't see your there. It is very nice.

C

Oh man, it's good stuff.

B

Hopefully, they're on time we got one minute. Oh there's hunter. Oh.

F

A

Oh no damien, two, it's a.

F

B

This is great brady you got to show off, so the guys can see you got to show off your virtual audio, cable setup. Oh, it's pretty wonderful! Yeah.

C

There it is, we talked.

H

Or is that playing pin your audio music.

C

All right, let's.

H

F

C

E

Happy birthday.

D

G

D

B

I think scott wins the awesome background. Competition, hey scott, how you doing.

C

They can't hear you, they can't hear.

B

Thank you, everyone yeah tell everyone. Thank you. This is really fun thanks everybody. This is. This is.

H

This is the best cool. Thank you.

B

Okay, well, I guess on that note: let's wrap up wait.

H

Whoops whoops, we lost what.

A

Oh, we lost them all. We.

C

B

That's a good note to wrap up on. Thank you so much pretty. I totally appreciate it. Thank you. Everyone. This was super fun, happy.

D

B

John, thank you. Brady you're, a good friend thanks a bunch bye, y'all, take care.
