Blogged: Blocking primary constructor member capture using a Roslyn Analyzer

https://andrewlock.net/blocking-primary-constructor-member-capture-using-an-analyzer/

In this post I describe a Rosyln analyzer you can use to enforce that primary constructors are only used for initialization and never to capture as fields

I was reading @andrewlock latest blog post on redacted logging and thought I would recreate a sample for my understanding.

I also sourced all the packages you will need in the off chance you’re using logging in a non- situation.

Cheers :) 🍻

Blogged: Short-circuit routing in .NET 8 - Exploring the .NET 8 preview - Part 11

https://andrewlock.net/exploring-the-dotnet-8-preview-short-circuit-routing/

In this post I describe the new short-circuit routing feature, how it differs from normal routing, discuss why it's useful, and look at how it's implemented.

andrewlock,
@andrewlock@hachyderm.io avatar

@khalidabuhakmeh Pretty sure that's what you said in response to my last post too 🤣

And I agree - I think the reality is that the core of the framework is really solid. There's new features like HTTP3 etc which will continue to evolve, but it feels like niche features.

Maybe that's just the reality of mature frameworks. But it's also a bit concerning as catering to every edge case like this adds complexity and ultimately, bloat.

andrewlock,
@andrewlock@hachyderm.io avatar

@khalidabuhakmeh For this feature in particular - there are so many other ways you could essentially achieve the same thing, I don't really understand why it was necessary.

None of the comments on the original issue seem to address the fact this is trivial to do if you place it before the call to UseRouting()...

@khalidabuhakmeh @bytefish To be fair, "short-circuit" is often used to describe bypassing the remainder of the pipeline, but it's never been applied to "routing" before.

I think they're just trying to make my next aspnetcore book even thicker...

andrewlock,
@andrewlock@hachyderm.io avatar

@khalidabuhakmeh Just to be clear:

  • I'm not really sure what issues short-circuiting could fix tbh.
  • if the endpoint has any authorization (or cors) requirements, it can't be short circuited, you'll get an exception at runtime.
  • This isn't really 'breaking' the middleware pipeline, it just breaks the elegance of the routing design IMO

My main argument against this is "we already say don't put everything in routing e.g. see static files". This use case fits in that statement afaict

Blogged: Updates to Docker images in .NET 8 - Exploring the .NET 8 previews - part 10

https://andrewlock.net/exploring-the-dotnet-8-preview-updates-to-docker-images-in-dotnet-8/

In this post I describe the changes to .NET 8 docker files in .NET 8 including changes to images, new image types, changes to image tagging, and breaking changes

andrewlock,
@andrewlock@hachyderm.io avatar

@khalidabuhakmeh I don't entirely disagree😅 Though I'm thinking primarily about native AOT...

Most of the docker changes are relatively harmless at least, you just don't need to use the newer stuff... But I suspect a lot of people are going to get burned by the default port change! 😬

andrewlock,
@andrewlock@hachyderm.io avatar

@khalidabuhakmeh 😬 that bodes well then...

andrewlock,
@andrewlock@hachyderm.io avatar

@khalidabuhakmeh @chethusk I don't think LTS means anything about breaking changes 🤔 it's semver, so can break going from 7 to 8, or 8 to 9, but not in minor and patch? But that has nothing to do with LTS.

Blogged: Form binding in minimal APIs - Exploring the .NET 8 preview - Part 7

https://andrewlock.net/exploring-the-dotnet-8-preview-form-binding-in-minimal-apis/

In this post I discuss the new form binding support for minimal APIs, the current limitations and rough edges, and how to work with antiforgery tokens

@jchannon Nice! Out of interest, did you run into any of the issues I flag in that post?

andrewlock,
@andrewlock@hachyderm.io avatar

@khalidabuhakmeh @jchannon Yeah, the duplicate key one seems problematic. As for how it should handle duplicates is potentially up for discussion I guess, if they're explicitly choosing to not behave like MVC 🤔

RE the value attribute to true - good point, thanks, definitely was too tired to spot that by the time I finished 😂 My complaint that their blog post fails hard still stands though I think 😉 + using it in a complex object.

andrewlock,
@andrewlock@hachyderm.io avatar

@khalidabuhakmeh @jchannon

or I think this would work?

([FromForm] bool isCompleted = false) => Results.Ok(isCompleted);

andrewlock,
@andrewlock@hachyderm.io avatar

@khalidabuhakmeh @jchannon records aren't supported at all yet :)

andrewlock,
@andrewlock@hachyderm.io avatar

@khalidabuhakmeh @jchannon I mean, I find it kinda funny it exists at all. There are numerous statements from Fowler et al "minimal APIs will not support forms" 😅

Personally I'm going to stick with "minimal APIs are for JSON" MVC/Razor Pages are for forms as a general rule for now😉

andrewlock,
@andrewlock@hachyderm.io avatar

@jchannon @khalidabuhakmeh You could also go the other way and render blazor components to strings instead of Razor view files 😉

andrewlock,
@andrewlock@hachyderm.io avatar

@jchannon @khalidabuhakmeh Of course, that's a given 😉
