Examples for Sessions Microservice #

This is user sessions microservice from Pip.Services library. It opens and closes user sessions and stores sessiond data.

Define configuration parameters that match the configuration of the microservice's external API

// Service/Client configuration
var httpConfig = ConfigParams.fromTuples(
	"connection.protocol", "http",
	"connection.host", "localhost",
	"connection.port", 8080
);

Instantiate the service

persistence = SessionsMemoryPersistence();
persistence.configure(ConfigParams());

controller = SessionsController();
controller.configure(ConfigParams());

service = SessionsHttpServiceV1();
service.configure(httpConfig);

var references = References.fromTuples([
    Descriptor('pip-services-sessions', 'persistence', 'memory',
        'default', '1.0'),
    persistence,
    Descriptor('pip-services-sessions', 'controller', 'default',
        'default', '1.0'),
    controller,
    Descriptor(
        'pip-services-sessions', 'service', 'http', 'default', '1.0'),
    service
]);

controller.setReferences(references);
service.setReferences(references);

await persistence.open(null);
await service.open(null);

Instantiate the client and open connection to the microservice

// Create the client instance
var client = SessionsHttpClientV1(config);

// Configure the client
client.configure(httpConfig);

// Connect to the microservice
try{
  await client.open(null)
}catch() {
  // Error handling...
}       
// Work with the microservice
// ...

Now the client is ready to perform operations

    // Open new session
    try {
      var session1 = await client.openSession('123', '1', 'User 1', 'localhost', 'test', 'abc');
      // Do something with the returned session...
    } catch(err) {
      // Error handling...     
    }

// Get the session
try {
var session = await client.getSessionById(
    null,
    session1.id);
    // Do something with session...

    } catch(err) { // Error handling}

In the help for each class there is a general example of its use. Also one of the quality sources are the source code for the tests.
