surrealdb.net

The official SurrealDB SDK for .NET.

Documentation

View the SDK documentation here.

How to install

dotnet add package SurrealDb.Net

Getting started

This library supports connecting to SurrealDB over the remote HTTP and WebSocket connection protocols http, https, ws, and wss.

The examples below require SurrealDB to be installed and running on port 8000.

Constructing a new SurrealDB client

You can easily create a new SurrealDB client. All you have to do is define the endpoint to the SurrealDB instance.

using var clientHttp = new SurrealDbClient("http://127.0.0.1:8000");
using var clientHttps = new SurrealDbClient("https://127.0.0.1:8000");
using var clientWs = new SurrealDbClient("ws://127.0.0.1:8000/rpc");
using var clientWss = new SurrealDbClient("wss://127.0.0.1:8000/rpc");

// Now you can call other methods including Signin & Use

Dependency injection

You can use Dependency Injection with the services.AddSurreal() function.

Default instance

var options = SurrealDbOptions
 .Create()
 .WithEndpoint("http://127.0.0.1:8000")
 .WithNamespace("test")
 .WithDatabase("test")
 .WithUsername("root")
 .WithPassword("root")
 .Build();

services.AddSurreal(options);

Then you will be able to use the ISurrealDbClient interface or SurrealDbClient class anywhere.

public class MyClass
{
 private readonly ISurrealDbClient _client;

 public MyClass(ISurrealDbClient client)
 {
 _client = client;
 }

 // ...
}

Note that the default lifetime of this service is Scoped. You can override this as follows:

services.AddSurreal(options, ServiceLifetime.Scoped);

Connection String

Consider the following appsettings.json file:

{
 "AllowedHosts": "*",
 "Logging": {
 "LogLevel": {
 "Default": "Information",
 "Microsoft.AspNetCore": "Warning"
 }
 },
 "ConnectionStrings": {
 "SurrealDB": "Server=http://127.0.0.1:8000;Namespace=test;Database=test;Username=root;Password=root"
 }
}

You can use the Connection String instead of having to deal with a SurrealDbOptions.

services.AddSurreal(configuration.GetConnectionString("SurrealDB"));

It will automatically create a new SurrealDB using the Server endpoint and configure the client using the different values for namespace, database, username and password. Note that these values are optional but the endpoint is still required.

Multiple instances

Having a default instance for a project is enough most of the time, but there may be times when you'd like to target multiple SurrealDB instances, either at different addresses or at the same address but inside different NS/DBs. You can use multiple instances as long as you provide 1 interface per client, as in the following example.

interface IBackupSurrealDbClient : ISurrealDbClient { }
interface IMonitoringSurrealDbClient : ISurrealDbClient { }

services.AddSurreal(configuration.GetConnectionString("SurrealDB.Main"));
services.AddSurreal<IBackupSurrealDbClient>(configuration.GetConnectionString("SurrealDB.Backup"));
services.AddSurreal<IMonitoringSurrealDbClient>(configuration.GetConnectionString("SurrealDB.Monitoring"));

Here you will have 3 instances:

• the default one, you can keep using ISurrealDbClient interface or SurrealDbClient class anywhere
• a client for backup purpose, using the IBackupSurrealDbClient interface
• a client for monitoring purpose, using the IMonitoringSurrealDbClient interface

Use the client

[ApiController]
[Route("[controller]")]
public class WeatherForecastController : ControllerBase
{
 private const string Table = "weatherForecast";

 private readonly ISurrealDbClient _surrealDbClient;

 public WeatherForecastController(ISurrealDbClient surrealDbClient)
 {
 _surrealDbClient = surrealDbClient;
 }

 [HttpGet]
 public Task<IEnumerable<WeatherForecast>> GetAll(CancellationToken cancellationToken)
 {
 return _surrealDbClient.Select<WeatherForecast>(Table, cancellationToken);
 }

 [HttpGet("{id}")]
 public async Task<IActionResult> Get(string id, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
 {
 var weatherForecast = await _surrealDbClient.Select<WeatherForecast>((Table, id), cancellationToken);

 if (weatherForecast is null)
 return NotFound();

 return Ok(weatherForecast);
 }

 [HttpPost]
 public Task<WeatherForecast> Create(CreateWeatherForecast data, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
 {
 var weatherForecast = new WeatherForecast
 {
 Date = data.Date,
 Country = data.Country,
 TemperatureC = data.TemperatureC,
 Summary = data.Summary
 };

 return _surrealDbClient.Create(Table, weatherForecast, cancellationToken);
 }

 [HttpPut]
 public Task<WeatherForecast> Update(WeatherForecast data, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
 {
 return _surrealDbClient.Upsert(data, cancellationToken);
 }

 [HttpPatch]
 public Task<IEnumerable<WeatherForecast>> PatchAll(
 JsonPatchDocument<WeatherForecast> patches,
 CancellationToken cancellationToken
 )
 {
 return _surrealDbClient.PatchAll(Table, patches, cancellationToken);
 }

 [HttpPatch("{id}")]
 public Task<WeatherForecast> Patch(
 string id,
 JsonPatchDocument<WeatherForecast> patches,
 CancellationToken cancellationToken
 )
 {
 return _surrealDbClient.Patch((Table, id), patches, cancellationToken);
 }

 [HttpDelete]
 public Task DeleteAll(CancellationToken cancellationToken)
 {
 return _surrealDbClient.Delete(Table, cancellationToken);
 }

 [HttpDelete("{id}")]
 public async Task<IActionResult> Delete(string id, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
 {
 bool success = await _surrealDbClient.Delete((Table, id), cancellationToken);

 if (!success)
 return NotFound();

 return Ok();
 }
}

Contributing

.NET release versions

The .NET release versions must follow these rules:

• Should target at least the latest LTS (Long-Term Support) version
• Should target at least the latest STS (Standard-Term Support) version

SurrealDb.Net targets .NET versions following the .NET Support Policy by Microsoft. Additionally, SurrealDb.Net targets .NET Standard 2.1 explicitly to continue support of the Mono runtime (Unity, Xamarin, etc...).

Note that the support for .NET standard 2.1 will be maintained until further notice.

Formatting

This project is using CSharpier, an opinionated code formatter.

Command line

You can install it on your machine via dotnet tool.

# Run this command at the root of the project
dotnet tool install csharpier

You can then use it as a cli:

dotnet csharpier .

The list of command-line options is available here: https://csharpier.com/docs/CLI

IDE integration

CSharpier supports multiple code editors, including Visual Studio, Jetbrains Rider, VSCode and Neovim. You will be able to run format on file save after configuring the settings in your IDE.
