← Customer Feedback for ServiceStack

Feature, docs and use-case samples requests for ServiceStack. If you can, focus on the end-user benefit / use-case, rather than the technical details so we can focus on the end-goal and free us to work on how best to achieve it. Features can also include supporting content, e.g. a starter project on how to use ServiceStack with another product (e.g. SS + SharePoint).

  1. Update links in Community resources

    I went trough the links in chapter:
    Community Resources September 20, 2015
    on page:
    http://docs.servicestack.net/create-webservice-from-scratch

    to have a look on how old the articles where. There where a number of not found:s as well as one very graphic adult nude gymnastic site...
    The entries still there where a bit on the old side.

  4. OrmLite Support saving of PhysicalAddress

    Saving classes with properties of type PhysicalAddress does not work. The reason should be the serialization:

        [Test]
    public void JsvStringSerializerWorksForPhysicalAddress()
    {
        var address = PhysicalAddress.Parse("0123456789AB");

        var serializer = new JsvStringSerializer();
        var result = serializer.SerializeToString(address);
        StringAssert.Contains("0123456789AB", result);
    }

  5. PocoDynamo Async APIs

    The ServiceStack.Aws.DynamoDb has only limited APIs that are async (currently 3 methods).

    I would like to see the rest of the APIs get an async overload.

    I hope that's enough of a description.

  6. Support random/round-robin db server selection in OrmLiteConnectionFactory

    The OrmLiteConnectionFactory can register several database servers, as described here:
    https://stackoverflow.com/a/13693254/178143

    However, to use the servers that is no "default", then you have to do it manually by using the name.

    I would suggest having a setting where the database server used is either random, round-robin or some other way. Sure, its not rocket science perhaps to write a wrapper for that yourself, but maybe it would be neat to have support in the framework.

    Thank you.

  9. Support postgresql @@ operator OrmLite

    Currently the PostgreSQL text match operator @@ throws validation error when used in a Ormlite custom query string.

    Would be nice to get support for that and also support for parameterised query to support tsquery type.

  11. Support JSV serialization in request URL for typescript client

    SS supports deserializing nested request objects if they are sent in URL as JSV. The typescript client should support this when sending a request object that has a nested object. At the moment it just appends the word "Object" to URL. I think if it doesn't support it then it should generate an error/warning when detecting a nested object as would save some confusion.

  13. CustomField breaks "The Field Ordering"

    CustomFieldAttribute's Order property is breaking "The Field Ordering"

    seems need stand-alone-attibute for Order property

    ServiceStack.OrmLite/src/ServiceStack.OrmLite/OrmLiteConfigExtensions.cs
    internal static ModelDefinition GetModelDefinition ( this Type modelType ) { ...
    if ( customFieldAttr != null ) order = customFieldAttr.Order;
    ... }

    public f11 {get;set}
    public f2 {get;set}

    [CustomField ("VarChar(1234") ] public MsgField {get;set}

    public f31 {get;set}

    [CustomField (Order(3) ] public f32 {get;set}

    public f45 {get;set}

  16. OrmLite: Implicit Reference Conventions for string keys

    I'm working with an existing legacy database schema. Many tables have string primary keys. These primary keys are typically named Code rather than Id. Id is reserved for int primary keys.

    The implicit relationships are currently applied for properties ending in Id. It would be nice if this worked for properties ending in Code too (if marked with PrimaryKey attribute).

    E.g.

    q.Join<CustomerType>();
    q.Join<CustomerType,Customer>((cust,type) => cust.CustomerTypeCode == type.Code);

  17. Add support for [References(TYPE)] in NativeTypesFeature

    The NativeTypesFeature is used by ServiceStackVS does a great job of looking at all types exposed by Services. However, it fails to include (or exclude via options) any type only referenced via a "ReferencesAttribute" data annotation. This forces me to either create a complete clone of the type just for automatic client DTO generation, or to create an additional dummy service route that exposes this type.

    Can the NativeTypesFeature be enhanced to also include Reference(TYPE) and/or References(TYPE)?

  18. Allow custom type converter for CSV parser

    The only thing that keeps me from dropping CsvHelper and using SS Csv capabilities for everything is that quite often I need a custom type converter.

    For instance sometimes currency is a mix of numbers and letters or there can be inconsistent data.

    If there was a way to register a method that would receive the raw column values and alter them then this would make it much more versatile in my opinion.

  20. Use a ThreadPool for RedisMqServer Services instead of hardcoding nbr of threads

    For increasing the throughput for a specific Request service in RedisMqServer, you need to manually hardcode the number of threads that the request/service has:

    https://docs.servicestack.net/redis-mq#easily-parallelize-and-multiply-your-services-throughput

    Like so:
    mqService.RegisterHandler<PostStatusTwitter>(ExecuteMessage, noOfThreads:2);

    I would like to suggest the option to use a ThreadPool instead.

    That would give the option to state the total number of concurrent/parallell processing, but there is no need to lock it down to specific requests. This is more versatile and less resource-wasting; if a certain Service isnt used right now, the threads can be used to process other Services instead.

    Maybe something like:

    mqService.UseThreadPool = true;
    mqService.MaxNbrOfThreads = 50;

    …

    AdminDemis J Bellot (Developer, ServiceStack) responded

    Usage of a dedicated thread per Message Type is per design so throughput can be controlled per Type, sequential processing can be enforced and processing is isolated from long tail of other lower priority MQ Messages delaying processing of higher priority ones.

    You can reduce number of sleeping threads by having fewer MQ Types, i.e. combining multiple MQ Tasks into a single union type whose Service implementation can delegate into invoking their different individual services.

    Mixing Threadpool MQ Server strategies will not happen with the existing implementation, it requires a completely new implementation with different behavior & design goals.

    I’ll leave this feature request open in-case anyone decides to implement a different MQ Server strategy and can post a link to their implementation here.
