Blank values received when using RestSharp from Console Application

I've created a C# console application that calls a stored procedure from SQL Server, retrieves records from a database table where records have not been transmitted, and adds said records to a RestSharp request. When I run my application locally, OK Status is received with a Status Code reflecting missing information. The API's logging system shows empty values in the received request.
I've tried the RestSharp request as follows:
private static RestRequest CreateRestRequest(string resource, Method method)
{
var credentials = GetCredentials();
var restRequest = new RestRequest { Resource = resource, Method = method, RequestFormat = DataFormat.Json, };
restRequest.AddHeader("accept", "application/json");
restRequest.AddHeader("Authorization", credentials);
restRequest.OnBeforeDeserialization = resp => { resp.ContentType = "application/json"; };
restRequest.OnBeforeDeserialization = resp => { resp.ContentEncoding = "utf-8"; };
restRequest.OnBeforeDeserialization = resp =>
{
if (resp.RawBytes.Length >= 3 && resp.RawBytes[0] == 0xEF && resp.RawBytes[1] == 0xBB && resp.RawBytes[2] == 0xBF)
{
// Copy the data but with the UTF-8 BOM removed.
var newData = new byte[resp.RawBytes.Length - 3];
Buffer.BlockCopy(resp.RawBytes, 3, newData, 0, newData.Length);
resp.RawBytes = newData;
// Force re-conversion to string on next access
resp.Content = null;
}
};
Console.WriteLine(restRequest);
return restRequest;
}
The logic used for the request values is as follows:
private SignUpRequest BuildMerchantTestData()
{
var onboardingDAL = new OnboardingDAL(iconfiguration);
var onboardingList = onboardingDAL.GetOnboardingList(iconfiguration);
var ownerList = new List<OwnerList>();
if (onboardingList != null)
{
Debug.Assert(onboardingList != null, nameof(OnboardingList) + " != null");
foreach (Onboarding result in onboardingList)
{
Console.WriteLine("{0} {1}", result.Email, result.UserId);
List<Owner> owner1 = new List<Owner>{ new Owner
{
FirstName = result.OwnerFirstName,
LastName = result.OwnerLastName,
Address = result.OwnerAddress,
City = result.OwnerCity,
State = result.OwnerRegion,
Zip = result.OwnerZipCode,
Country =result.OwnerCountry,
DateOfBirth = result.OwnerDob,
SSN = result.OwnerSsn,
Email = result.Email,
Percentage = result.OwnerPercentage,
Title = result.OwnerTitle
}};
var signupRequest = new SignUpRequest
{
PersonalData = new PersonalData
{
FirstName = result.FirstName,
MiddleInitial = result.MiddleInitial,
LastName = result.Lastname,
DateOfBirth = result.DateOfBirth,
SocialSecurityNumber = result.Ssn,
SourceEmail = result.Email,
PhoneInformation =
new PhoneInformation
{DayPhone = result.DayPhone, EveningPhone = result.EveningPhone},
},
InternationalSignUpData = null,
NotificationEmail = result.Email,
SignupAccountData = new SignupAccountData
{

},
BusinessData =
new BusinessData
{
BusinessLegalName = result.BusinessLegalName,
DoingBusinessAs = result.DoingBusinessAs,
EIN = result.Ein,
MerchantCategoryCode = result.MerchantCategoryCode,
WebsiteURL = result.BusinessUrl,
BusinessDescription = result.BusinessDescription,
MonthlyBankCardVolume = result.MonthlyBankCardVolume ?? 0,
AverageTicket = result.AverageTicket ?? 0,
HighestTicket = result.HighestTicket ?? 0
},
Address = new Address
{
ApartmentNumber = result.Address1ApartmentNumber,
Address1 = result.Address1Line1,
Address2 = result.Address1Line1,
City = result.Address1City,
State = result.Address1State,
Country = result.Address1Country,
Zip = result.Address1ZipCode
},
MailAddress = new Address
{
ApartmentNumber = result.OwnerApartmentNumber,
Address1 = result.OwnerAddress,
Address2 = result.OwnerAddress2,
City = result.OwnerCity,
State = result.OwnerRegion,
Country = result.OwnerCountry,
Zip = result.OwnerZipCode
},
BusinessAddress =
new Address
{
ApartmentNumber = result.BusinessApartmentNumber,
Address1 = result.BusinessAddressLine1,
Address2 = result.BusinessAddressLine2,
City = result.BusinessCity,
State = result.BusinessState,
Country = result.BusinessCountry,
Zip = result.BusinessZipCode
},
BankAccount =
new BankAccount
{
AccountCountryCode = result.BankAccount1CountryCode,
BankAccountNumber = result.BankAccount1Number,
RoutingNumber = result.BankAccount1RoutingNumber,
AccountOwnershipType = result.BankAccount1OwnershipType,
BankName = result.BankAccount1BankName,
AccountType = "Checking",
AccountName = result.BankAccount1Name,
Description = result.BankAccount1Description
},
BeneficialOwnerData = new BeneficialOwnerData
{
OwnerCount = "1",
Owners = owner1
}
}; Console.WriteLine(JsonConvert.SerializeObject(signupRequest));
}
}
return new SignUpRequest();
}
I'm executing the request as follows:
private static T Execute<T>(IRestRequest request, string baseUrl) where T : class, new()
{
var client = new RestClient(baseUrl);
var response = client.Execute<T>(request);
if (response.ErrorException != null)
{
Console.WriteLine(
"Error: Exception: {0}, Message: {1}, Headers: {2}, Content: {3}, Status Code: {4}",
response.ErrorException,
response.ErrorMessage,
response.Headers,
response.Content,
response.StatusCode);
}
Console.WriteLine("Status:" + response.StatusCode);
Console.WriteLine("Message: " + response.Content);
Console.WriteLine(response.Data);
return response.Data;
}
public ProPayResponse MerchantSignUpForProPay()
{
var baseUrl = "https://xmltestapi.propay.com/ProPayAPI";
var request = BuildMerchantTestData();
var restRequest = CreateRestRequest("SignUp", Method.PUT);
restRequest.AddJsonBody(request);
_context?.SaveChangesAsync();
return Execute<ProPayResponse>(restRequest, baseUrl);
}
Why would the JSON string contain valid values in my console, but yet no values are received by the API? How would I rectify this issue?

So, after re-visiting this issue at a later time, I found that return signupRequest; was the appropriate way to return the request and request values.

Async function in Converting object to another object in c#

I would like to implement an async function in converting the object to another object then in saving to the database.
public List<Order> GetOrdersFromTradeGeckoCount()
{
string orderLimit = base.StorePlugin.Store.OrderLimit.HasValue ? base.StorePlugin.Store.OrderLimit.Value.ToString() : "250";
string filters = string.Format("?status=finalized&limit={0}", orderLimit);
HttpResponseMessage response = _requestHelper.GetHttpResponse("orders" + filters);
var tgOrders = GetOrdersResponse(response);
//Async Convert and Save Order
ConvertToORouterOrdersAsync(tgOrders);
return ConvertToORouterOrdersCount(tgOrders);
}
I would like this method ConvertToORouterOrdersAsync(tgOrders); will run in the background and will return the Count of Orders from this ConvertToORouterOrdersCount(tgOrders) before the conversion is done.
Please help me to change the implementation to asynchronous.
public async void ConvertToORouterOrdersAsync(List<TGOrder> tgOrders)
{
var orderMgr = new OrderDAC();
var orders = new List<Order>(tgOrders.Count());
foreach (TGOrder tgOrder in tgOrders)
{
try
{
var order = new Order();
var orderId = TryConvertInt64(CleanUpOrderId(tgOrder.order_number));
if (orderId == null) continue;
var tempOrderId = string.Format("{0}{1}", base.StoreId, orderId.Value);
order.OrderId = TryConvertInt64(tempOrderId).Value;
order.StoreOrderId = tgOrder.id.ToString();
order.WarehouseOrderId = tgOrder.order_number;
var orderFromDb = orderMgr.GetOrder(order.OrderId, base.StoreId);
if (orderFromDb != null) continue; // make sure we only import new order(i.e. doesn't exists in database)
// shipping address
var tgShippingAddress = GetAddress(tgOrder.shipping_address_id);
if (tgShippingAddress == null) continue;
order.ShipFirstName = tgShippingAddress.first_name;

}
}

To really have a advantage of the async and await the underlying calls should have async versions, for example the database calls should be async, don't know if you use EF or just plain SqlCommand but both have async versions of their calls.
Other calls that can be async is HTTP calls.
I have edited youre code with the assumption you are able to convert the underlying code to async.
public async Task<List<Order> GetOrdersFromTradeGeckoCount()
{
string orderLimit = base.StorePlugin.Store.OrderLimit.HasValue ? base.StorePlugin.Store.OrderLimit.Value.ToString() : "250";
string filters = string.Format("?status=finalized&limit={0}", orderLimit);
HttpResponseMessage response = await _requestHelper.GetHttpResponseAsync("orders" + filters).ConfigureAwait(false);
var tgOrders = GetOrdersResponse(response);
//Async Convert and Save Order
await ConvertToORouterOrdersAsync(tgOrders).ConfigureAwait(false);
return await ConvertToORouterOrdersCountAsync(tgOrders).ConfigureAwait(false);
}
public async Task ConvertToORouterOrdersAsync(List<TGOrder> tgOrders)
{
var orderMgr = new OrderDAC();
var orders = new List<Order>(tgOrders.Count());
foreach (TGOrder tgOrder in tgOrders)
{
try
{
var order = new Order();
var orderId = TryConvertInt64(CleanUpOrderId(tgOrder.order_number));
if (orderId == null) continue;
var tempOrderId = string.Format("{0}{1}", base.StoreId, orderId.Value);
order.OrderId = TryConvertInt64(tempOrderId).Value;
order.StoreOrderId = tgOrder.id.ToString();
order.WarehouseOrderId = tgOrder.order_number;
var orderFromDb = await orderMgr.GetOrderAsync(order.OrderId, base.StoreId).ConfigureAwait(false);
if (orderFromDb != null) continue; // make sure we only import new order(i.e. doesn't exists in database)
// shipping address
var tgShippingAddress = GetAddress(tgOrder.shipping_address_id);
if (tgShippingAddress == null) continue;
order.ShipFirstName = tgShippingAddress.first_name;
order.ShipLastName = tgShippingAddress.last_name;
order.ShipCompanyName = tgShippingAddress.company_name;
order.ShipAddress1 = tgShippingAddress.address1;
order.ShipAddress2 = tgShippingAddress.address2;
order.ShipCity = tgShippingAddress.suburb;
order.ShipState = tgShippingAddress.state;
order.ShipPostalCode = tgShippingAddress.zip_code;
order.ShipCountry = tgShippingAddress.country;
order.ShipPhoneNumber = tgShippingAddress.phone_number;
order.CustomerEmail = tgOrder.email;
// billing address
var tgBillingAddress = GetAddress(tgOrder.billing_address_id);
if (tgBillingAddress == null) continue;
// line items
var lineItems = GetOrderLineItems(tgOrder.id);
foreach (TGOrderLineItem lineItem in lineItems)
{
var ol = new OrderLine();
if (lineItem.variant_id.HasValue)
{
var variant = GetVariant(lineItem.variant_id.Value);
if (variant == null) continue;
ol.ProductName = variant.product_name;
ol.SKU = variant.sku;
ol.ThreePLSKU = ol.SKU;
ol.Qty = Convert.ToInt16(TryGetDecimal(lineItem.quantity));
ol.OrderId = order.OrderId;
ol.Price = TryGetDecimal(lineItem.price);
ol.SubTotal = (ol.Qty * ol.Price);
ol.StoreOrderLineId = Convert.ToString(lineItem.id);
order.OrderLines.Add(ol);
}
}
var validator = new Validator(base.Task);
if (validator.IsValidOrder(order))
{
await orderMgr.AddAsync(order).ConfigureAwait(false);
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
AppendError(ex.Message);
}
}
}
Or if you just want to run the code in the background you can also just wrap it in a Task.Run
public async Task<List<Order> GetOrdersFromTradeGeckoCount()
{
string orderLimit = base.StorePlugin.Store.OrderLimit.HasValue ? base.StorePlugin.Store.OrderLimit.Value.ToString() : "250";
string filters = string.Format("?status=finalized&limit={0}", orderLimit);
HttpResponseMessage response = _requestHelper.GetHttpResponse("orders" + filters);
var tgOrders = GetOrdersResponse(response);
//Async Convert and Save Order
await ConvertToORouterOrdersAsync(tgOrders).ConfigureAwait(false);
return ConvertToORouterOrdersCount(tgOrders);
}
public Task ConvertToORouterOrdersAsync(List<TGOrder> tgOrders)
{
return Task.Run(() =>
{
var orderMgr = new OrderDAC();
var orders = new List<Order>(tgOrders.Count());
foreach (TGOrder tgOrder in tgOrders)
{
try
{
var order = new Order();
var orderId = TryConvertInt64(CleanUpOrderId(tgOrder.order_number));
if (orderId == null) continue;
var tempOrderId = string.Format("{0}{1}", base.StoreId, orderId.Value);
order.OrderId = TryConvertInt64(tempOrderId).Value;
order.StoreOrderId = tgOrder.id.ToString();
order.WarehouseOrderId = tgOrder.order_number;
var orderFromDb = await orderMgr.GetOrder(order.OrderId, base.StoreId);
if (orderFromDb != null) continue; // make sure we only import new order(i.e. doesn't exists in database)
// shipping address
var tgShippingAddress = GetAddress(tgOrder.shipping_address_id);
if (tgShippingAddress == null) continue;
order.ShipFirstName = tgShippingAddress.first_name;
order.ShipLastName = tgShippingAddress.last_name;
order.ShipCompanyName = tgShippingAddress.company_name;
order.ShipAddress1 = tgShippingAddress.address1;
order.ShipAddress2 = tgShippingAddress.address2;
order.ShipCity = tgShippingAddress.suburb;
order.ShipState = tgShippingAddress.state;
order.ShipPostalCode = tgShippingAddress.zip_code;
order.ShipCountry = tgShippingAddress.country;
order.ShipPhoneNumber = tgShippingAddress.phone_number;
order.CustomerEmail = tgOrder.email;
// billing address
var tgBillingAddress = GetAddress(tgOrder.billing_address_id);
if (tgBillingAddress == null) continue;
// line items
var lineItems = GetOrderLineItems(tgOrder.id);

Controller is returning blank View in my website

public async Task<IActionResult> Contact1()
{
if (Convert.ToBoolean(HttpContext.Session.GetString("login")))
{
var pass = new ContactViewModel();
var username = HttpContext.Session.GetString("username");
Program.readname(HttpContext.Session.GetString("username"));
var names = HttpContext.Session.GetString("studentnames");
var obj1 = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Program.Data>(names);
if (Program.datecheck(username, DateTime.Today.Date))
{
try{
var handler = new HttpClientHandler { Credentials = new NetworkCredential(user, password) };
using (var client = Program.CreateHttpClient(handler, user, database3))
{
string check = username + Convert.ToString(DateTime.Today.Date);
var readresponse = client.GetStringAsync(check).Result;
var obj2 = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Program.Data>(readresponse);
}
catch(Exception ee)
{ ViewBag.m6 = ee.Message; ViewBag.attendance = "Attendace is not take yet";}
}
pass.studentattend = obj2.studentattend1;
}
}
else { ViewBag.attendance = "Attendace is not take yet"; }
pass.studentname = obj1.studentname1;
pass.studentrollno = obj1.studentrollno1;
pass.date = DateTime.Today.Date;
HttpContext.Session.SetInt32("classselect", 1);
ViewData["Message"] = "Student Attendance of Class: " + HttpContext.Session.GetString("classname1");
ViewBag.Login = HttpContext.Session.GetString("login");
ViewBag.name = HttpContext.Session.GetString("name");
ViewBag.classname1 = HttpContext.Session.GetString("classname1");
ViewBag.classname2 = HttpContext.Session.GetString("classname2");
ViewBag.classname3 = HttpContext.Session.GetString("classname3");
ViewBag.classname4 = HttpContext.Session.GetString("classname4");
return View("/Views/Home/Contact.cshtml", pass);
}
else
{
ViewData["Message"] = "Please Login First!!";
return View("/Views/Home/Login.cshtml");
}
}
The above code is runnig well in my local ISS server but when i run this on bluemix then i am getting blank page. I tried to find out the problem and get to the conclusion that if the control does not enter in the if part of that code:
if (Program.datecheck(username, DateTime.Today.Date))
{
var handler = new HttpClientHandler { Credentials = new NetworkCredential(user, password) };
using (var client = Program.CreateHttpClient(handler, user, database3))
{
string check = username + Convert.ToString(DateTime.Today.Date);
var readresponse = client.GetStringAsync(check).Result;
var obj2 = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Program.Data>(readresponse);
pass.studentattend = obj2.studentattend1;
}
}
else { ViewBag.attendance = "Attendace is not take yet"; }
then it will run fine.I am unable to find what is wrong in that query.

Royal Mail Shipping API C#

I'm trying to integrate the Royal Mail SOAP API into my .NET Code. I have followed the advice here Consume WCF Royal Mail API in c# Console Application and here C# WCF Namespaces Move To Header & Use NS Prefix.
I have created a custom IClientMessageFormatter to be able to attach the namespaces to the beginning of the soap envelope, but I still can't seem to get this to work. I keep receiving the following error. Could not establish trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel with authority 'api.royalmail.com', and the inner exception is: The remote certificate is invalid according to the validation procedure.
I am using Visual Studio 13 and .Net version 3.5, I've tried numerous other versions but with no further progress. When I debug I can see that the normal message been passed into the RoyalMailMessage but when it runs OnWriteStartEnvelope I can't see any changes to the _message object. I've created a trace to see what soap request is been sent.
I have sent my XML request to Royal Mail support who validate that the reason it is failing is due to the namespaces not been declared in the envelope and the missing prefixes.
RoyalMail.cs
internal class RoyalMail

The error you are getting is basically because of the certificate.
Having said that, I think you should use the v2 of the API as although it is still awful, there are examples out there and you don't need to use a cert.
Rick Strahl has successfully changed the namespaces in the v2 version, see here https://weblog.west-wind.com/posts/2016/Apr/02/Custom-Message-Formatting-in-WCF-to-add-all-Namespaces-to-the-SOAP-Envelope .

There is one new Royal Mail Shipping API 2 available , after I've lost many hours try development the integration with Royal Mail I finally found a way. I'm sharing my project in the git.

Hi Anil try this sample code:
make required changes as per your code
public int CheckUser(int countrycode, long mobileno)
{
LociDataClassesDataContext dc = new LociDataClassesDataContext();
int id = from b in dc.registrations
where b.country_code.Equals(countrycode) && b.mobile_number.Equals(mobileno)
select b.registration_id;
return id;
}
public DefaultRespons GetRegister(int os_id, string device_id, int country_code, long mobile_no)
{
LociDataClassesDataContext dc = new LociDataClassesDataContext();
int reg_id = CheckUser(country_code, mobile_no);
if (reg_id == 0)
{
registration reg = new registration();
reg.os_id = os_id;
reg.device_id = device_id;
reg.country_code = country_code;
reg.mobile_number = mobile_no;
reg.verification_code = new Random().Next(1000, 9999);
dc.registrations.InsertOnSubmit(reg);
dc.SubmitChanges();
Twilio.TwilioRestClient client = new Twilio.TwilioRestClient("AC3c23fee017f23f5061a6b5d3be6f74da", "6fe81560f88f3850c5ad5d4a7b8a5f50");
Twilio.SMSMessage message = client.SendSmsMessage("+16782493911", "+" + reg.country_code + "" + reg.mobile_number, "Your verification code for Locii is: " + reg.verification_code);
if (message.RestException != null)
Debug.WriteLine(message.RestException.Message);
return new DefaultRespons(1, "OK", Registration.getResponse(reg));
}
else
{
//your code what you want to do with the reg_id
}
}
