Unable to get from ServiceStack API using JsonServiceClient - servicestack

I am trying to get all equipment types from my API using the following code.
client = new JsonServiceClient(environment.apiEndpoint);
var equipmentTypes = new GetEquipmentTypes();
var response = this.client.get(equipmentTypes);
I can see that it is in the network tab. The data is being transferred.
public class GetEquipmentTypeResponse
{
public IEnumerable<EquipmentType> Results { get; set; }
public ResponseStatus ResponseStatus { get; set; }
}
Is the return DTO from the API.
[Route("/api/EquipmentTypes", "GET")]
public class GetEquipmentTypes : IReturn<GetEquipmentTypeResponse>
{
}
Is the ServiceInterface used.
IEnumerable<EquipmentType> response = db.Select<EquipmentType>(x=>x.Name == request.Name);
return new GetEquipmentTypeResponse { Results = response,
ResponseStatus = new ResponseStatus { }};
Is what the API returns.
The API is written in asp.net. The client side is angular 6 (typescript).
I have attached two images, which is the request and the response given.
This is the request which is sent to the API.
This is what the API responds.
This is what I get from var response. (console.log(response))

The screenshot shows that the response is being returned fine, the Promise result is just not being awaited, try:
var response = await this.client.get(equipmentTypes);

a method to retrieve id_token from Azure AD body request

I'm following this WebApp-WebAPI example. Is there a method to retrieve an id_token after a B2C user is authorized and the id_token is received within the body? I'm on Function app V3.
I receive the authorization response to replyURL in an azure Function app but the id_token coming in a body mixed with code and state data, and I can't seem to break it out or deserialize to json:
public class Function1
{
internal class AuthToken
{
[JsonProperty("id_token")]
public string id_Token { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("state")]
public string StateToken { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("code")]
public string CodeToken { get; set; }
}
private readonly HttpClient httpClient = new HttpClient();
[FunctionName("ReceiverAuth")]
public static async Task<HttpStatusCode> Run([HttpTrigger(AuthorizationLevel.Anonymous, "get", "post", Route = null)] HttpRequest req, ILogger log)
{
//this works and shows id_token, state, code as text (also without the Encoding.UTF8 parameter)
var requestBody = await new StreamReader(req.Body, Encoding.UTF8).ReadToEndAsync();
//trying to separate the id_token data into json throws http500
AuthToken authTok = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<AuthToken>(requestBody);
var idToken = authTok.id_Token;
}
Also tried but didn't change the result:
var decodedRequestBody = System.Net.WebUtility.HtmlDecode(requestBody);
To my noob eyes Fiddler's body feels like the data is broken out but I can't separate the id_token on the req. received. Showing request header and webform and response.
The data is sent to you as form data, not JSON.
You need to use something like this:
var idToken = req.Form["id_token"];
Or you could try FromForm instead of HttpRequest req:
[FromForm] AuthToken authTok
If these don't work, check these: How to parse form data using Azure Functions

Content-Type must be 'application/json-patch+json' JsonServiceClient ServiceStack

I'm trying to perform a patch with a JsonServiceClient to a service stack api as follows:
var patchRequest = new JsonPatchRequest
{
new JsonPatchElement
{
op = "replace",
path = "/firstName",
value = "Test"
}
};
_jsonClient.Patch<object>($"/testurl/{id}", patchRequest);
But I'm getting the following error:
Content-Type must be 'application/json-patch+json'
The error is clear. Is there a way to change the content type before perform the request for the JsonServiceClient?
This is the request POCO in the ServiceStack api:
[Api("Partial update .")]
[Route("/testurl/{Id}”, "PATCH")]
public class PartialTest : IReturn<PartialTestRequestResponse>, IJsonPatchDocumentRequest,
IRequiresRequestStream
{
[ApiMember(Name = “Id”, ParameterType = "path", DataType = "string", IsRequired = true)]
public string Id { get; set; }
public Stream RequestStream { get; set; }
}
public class PartialTestRequestResponse : IHasResponseStatus
{
public ResponseStatus ResponseStatus { get; set; }
}
Service implementation:
public object Patch(PartialTest request)
{
var dbTestRecord = Repo.GetDbTestRecord(request.Id);
if (dbTestRecord == null) throw HttpError.NotFound("Record not found.");
var patch =
(JsonPatchDocument<TestRecordPoco>)
JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(Request.GetRawBody(), typeof(JsonPatchDocument<TestRecordPoco>));
if (patch == null)
throw new HttpError(HttpStatusCode.BadRequest, "Body is not a valid JSON Patch Document.");
patch.ApplyTo(dbTestRecord);
Repo.UpdateDbTestRecord(dbTestRecord);
return new PartialTestResponse();
}
I'm using Marvin.JsonPatch V 1.0.0 library.
It's still not clear where the Exception is coming from as it's not an Error within ServiceStack. If you've registered a Custom Format or Filter that throws this error please include its impl (or a link to it) as well as the full StackTrace which will identify the source of the error.
But you should never call Patch<object> as an object return type doesn't specify what Response Type to deserialize into. Since you have an IReturn<T> marker you can just send the Request DTO:
_jsonClient.Patch(new PartialTest { ... });
Which will try to deserialize the Response in the IReturn<PartialTestRequestResponse> Response DTO. But as your Request DTO implements IRequiresRequestStream it's saying you're expecting unknown bytes that doesn't conform to a normal Request DTO, in which case you likely want to use a raw HTTP Client like HTTP Utils, e.g:
var bytes = request.Url.SendBytesToUrl(
method: HttpMethods.Path,
requestBody: jsonPatchBytes,
contentType: "application/json-patch+json",
accept: MimeTypes.Json);
You could modify the ContentType of a JSON Client using a request filter, e.g:
_jsonClient.RequestFilter = req =>
req.ContentType = "application/json-patch+json";
But it's more appropriate to use a low-level HTTP Client like HTTP Utils for non-JSON Service Requests like this.

GetRawBody() is returning empty for REST requests

I am trying to write the Raw data of my ServiceStack webservice using servicerunner. This is working for SOAP requests but for the REST request GetRawBody() is returning empty.
public override void BeforeEachRequest(IRequest requestContext, T request)
{
Logger.Write(requestContext.GetRawBody());
}
By default web servers only provide a forward-only Request Stream which you can tell ServiceStack to skip deserialization so you can read from the Request Stream by implementing IRequiresRequestStream on your Request DTO:
public class MyRequest : IRequiresRequestStream
{
Stream RequestStream { get; set; }
}
Which will inject the Request Stream instead of deserializing the Request DTO, e.g:
public class object Any(MyRequest request)
{
var requestBody = request.RequestStream.ReadFully().FromUtf8Bytes();
}
Otherwise if you want ServiceStack to deserialize the Request and you want to re-read from the Request Body later yourself you need to tell ServiceStack to buffer the Request using a pre-request filter:
appHost.PreRequestFilters.Add((httpReq, httpRes) => {
httpReq.UseBufferedStream = true;
});

ServiceStack request filter Attribute set a custom object

I am trying to write a Custom RequestFilterAttribute that would run on every service to check if the request has a a valid token. I want to return or set an object once the CanExecute method is called and forward it to the service method for further processing. Is there a way to do that in ServiceStack .
ServiceStack Request Filters lets you short-circuit a request so it does no further processing, to let a request go through you'd just ignore the request. One way to do this for specific Requests is to have them share a common interface which you can verify in your Request Filter, e.g:
public interface IValidateToken
{
string Token { get; }
}
public class MyRequest : IValidateToken
{
public string Token { get; set; }
}
Then in a Global Request Filter you can verify if the token is valid, otherwise return an error and short-circuit the request with something like:
GlobalRequestFilters.Add((httpReq, httpRes, dto) => {
var tokenRequest = dto as IValidateToken;
if (tokenRequest != null && !MyValidateToken(tokenRequest.Token))
{
httpRes.StatusCode = (int) HttpStatusCode.Forbidden;
httpRes.StatusDescription = "Token is invalid";
httpRes.EndRequest();
}
});
If the Request Token is valid the request gets processed as normal.

ServiceStack Not Caching Json

I'm using ServiceStack on ASP.NET 4.5. I'm having troubles with the ServiceStack InMemory caching. If I just call the URL directly from the browser it pulls back the cached version, but if I try to call it via getJSON in JQuery, it never pulls back the cached version and just refetches the data each time.
Here's the basic code bits...
public class AResponse : IHasResponseStatus
{
public ResponseStatus ResponseStatus { get; set; }
public Html Html { get; set; }
}
public object Get(A request)
{
var cacheKey = UrnId.Create<string>(request.UserKey + request.Id);
var expireInTimespan = new TimeSpan(1, 0, 0);
return RequestContext.ToOptimizedResultUsingCache(base.Cache, cacheKey, expireInTimespan, () =>
{
var ar = new AResponse();
var html = new Html();
html.Test = "test";
ar.Html = html;
return ar;
});
}
...Thanks for any ideas.
My understanding is that when you call the Service from the browser you are going to cache a Html version. So, ServiceStack will insert/retrieve by applying a .html suffix onto your key. When you call it from JQuery it will cache a Json version and apply a .json suffix onto your key. You could test this by calling into your Service from the browser using ?format=json on the url. This would cache a json version (instead of html) and then calling from JQuery to get the cached json.
