Create asynchronous Commerce (CRT) APIs in your business logic

Note

This article applies to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Commerce version 10.0.10 and later.

This article explains how to create new business logic (application programming interfaces, or APIs) for the Commerce Runtime (CRT) by using the new asynchronous framework. The Commerce API framework now supports an asynchronous programming model for extensions and out-of-box Commerce handlers.

Before this framework enhancement was added, requests could be run only synchronously. Long operations, like input/output (I/O) operations, database queries, or network requests, blocked the execution thread. Now that support for the asynchronous model has been added to the Commerce runtime (CRT), you can use asynchronous versions of these operations. Asynchronous requests unblock the execution thread.

The Commerce API framework now supports the Task and Task<T> classes that are supported by the async and await keywords for the extension CRT request handlers. You should use the asynchronous Commerce API framework for all new extension APIs and the out-of-box asynchronous Commerce API in extensions.

Async classes/interface added in the Commerce API framework

The following asynchronous classes and interfaces were added in the Commerce API framework.

Class/Interface Description
SingleAsyncRequestHandler The base class for asynchronous handlers that support only one request.
IRequestHandlerAsync The interface for the asynchronous request handler.
IRequestTriggerAsync The interface for the request trigger.
IController The base class for asynchronous extension Retail server controller class. Replaces CommerceControllerAsync class which was deprecated.
DatabaseContext The base class for asynchronous database execution methods.

The following asynchronous methods were added in the Commerce API framework.

Class/Interface Method Description
SingleAsyncRequestHandler Task\<TResponse\> Process The execute method that will be overridden by each derived class.
Task\<Response\> Execute The method that represents the entry point of the request handler.

Asynchronous execution is supported for these scenarios:

  • New Commerce APIs

    • Asynchronous Commerce Runtime API
    • Asynchronous Retail server controller
  • Overrides of the Commerce API handler that is running

  • Pre-triggers and post-triggers

Note

We recommend that for the extension code, you use ConfigureAwait(false) when executing the request.

Create a new asynchronous Commerce Runtime API

To create a new asynchronous Commerce API, you must create three classes:

  • Create the request class by implementing the Request class.
  • Create the asynchronous response class by implementing the Response class.
  • Create the asynchronous handler class.

To create the classes, follow these steps.

  1. Create the request class.

    namespace Contoso
    {
        namespace Commerce.Runtime.AsyncRequestSample.Messages
        {
            using System.Runtime.Serialization;
            using System;
            using Microsoft.Dynamics.Commerce.Runtime.Messages;
    
            /// <summary>
            /// Sample request for AsyncRequestSampleRequest
            /// </summary>
            [DataContract]
            public sealed class AsyncRequestSampleRequest : Request
            {
                /// <summary>
                /// Initializes a new instance of the <see cref="AsyncRequestSampleRequest"/> class.
                /// </summary>
                public AsyncRequestSampleRequest()
                {
                }
    
            }
        }
    }
    
  2. Create the response class.

    namespace Contoso
    {
        namespace Commerce.Runtime.AsyncSample.Messages
        {
            using System.Runtime.Serialization;
            using Microsoft.Dynamics.Commerce.Runtime.Messages;
            using Microsoft.Dynamics.Commerce.Runtime.DataModel;
    
            /// <summary>
            /// Defines a simple response class .
            /// </summary>
            [DataContract]
            public sealed class AsyncSampleResponse : Response
            {
                /// <summary>
                /// Initializes a new instance of the <see cref="AsyncSampleResponse"/> class.
                /// </summary>
                /// <param name="CustomerRec">Customer.</param>
                public AsyncSampleResponse(Customer customer)
                {
                    this.CustomerRec = customer;
                }
    
                /// <summary>
                /// Gets the customer related to the request.
                /// </summary>
                [DataMember]
                public Customer CustomerRec { get; private set; }
    
            }
        }
    }
    
  3. Create the asynchronous handler.

    using Contoso.Commerce.Runtime.AsyncSample.Messages;
    using System.Linq;
    using System.Threading.Tasks;
    using Microsoft.Dynamics.Commerce.Runtime;
    using Microsoft.Dynamics.Commerce.Runtime.DataModel;
    using Microsoft.Dynamics.Commerce.Runtime.Services.Messages;
    
    namespace Commerce.Runtime.AsyncSample.Messages
    {
        public class AsyncSampleRequestHandler : SingleAsyncRequestHandler<AsyncSampleRequest, AsyncSampleResponse>
        {
            protected override async Task<AsyncSampleResponse> Process(AsyncSampleRequest request)
            {
                var customers = await AsyncSampleMethodGetCustomer(request.RequestContext);
    
                return new AsyncSampleResponse(customers);
            }
    
            private async Task<Customer> AsyncSampleMethodGetCustomer(RequestContext context)
            {
                //do custom logic here. Execute any custom logic or request asynchronously.
                var getCustomerRequest = new GetCustomersServiceRequest(QueryResultSettings.SingleRecord, "2001", SearchLocation.Local);
                var getCustomerResponse = await context.ExecuteAsync<GetCustomersServiceResponse>(getCustomerRequest);
                return getCustomerResponse.Customers.SingleOrDefault();
            }
        }
    }
    

Create a new asynchronous Retail server controller

To create an asynchronous Retail server controller extension, extend the controller class from the IController class, as shown in the following example.

namespace Microsoft.Dynamics.Retail.RetailServerLibrary.ODataControllers
{
    using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
    using System.Threading.Tasks;
    using System.Web.Http.Controllers;
    using System.Web.OData;
    using Commerce.Runtime;
    using Commerce.Runtime.Client;
    using Commerce.Runtime.DataModel;

    /// <summary>
    /// The catalogs controller.
    /// </summary>
    [ComVisible(false)]
    public class CustomController : IController<MyEntity, string>
    {

        /// <summary>
        /// Gets the controller name.
        /// </summary>
        public override string ControllerName
        {
            get { return "MyEntity"; }
        }

        /// <summary>
        /// Gets the <c>MyEntity</c> entity by key.
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="key">
        /// The key.
        /// </param>
        /// <returns>
        /// The <see cref="ScanResult"/>.
        /// </returns>
        [CommerceAuthorization(CommerceRoles.Employee)]
        protected override Task<MyEntity> GetEntityByKey(string key)
        {
            return this.GetMyEntityAsync(key);
        }

        /// <summary>
        /// Retrieves the entity information based on <see cref="key"/> input.
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="key">key input.</param>
        /// <returns>Instance of <see cref="MyEntity"/> that contains entities found by input text.</returns>
        public async Task<MyEntity> GetMyEntityAsync(string key)
        {
            ThrowIf.Null(key, nameof(key));

            var request = new MyCustomRequest(key);
            var response = await this.runtime.ExecuteAsync<MyCustomResponse>(request).ConfigureAwait(false);
            return response.Result;
        }

    }
}

Override an out-of-box request handler asynchronously

To override the supported out-of-box request handler, follow this pattern.

For example, to override the out-of-box GetScanResultRequestHandler handler, override the handler, and return the response by using Task and await.

namespace Contoso
{
    namespace Commerce.Runtime.Workflow
    {
        using System.Linq;
        using System.Threading.Tasks;
        using Microsoft.Dynamics.Commerce.Runtime;
        using Microsoft.Dynamics.Commerce.Runtime.DataModel;
        using Microsoft.Dynamics.Commerce.Runtime.Messages;
        using Microsoft.Dynamics.Commerce.Runtime.Services.Messages;

        /// <summary>
        /// Workflow that retrieves information based on scan input.
        /// </summary>
        public class GetScanResultRequestHandler : SingleAsyncRequestHandler<GetScanResultRequest, GetScanResultResponse>
        {
            /// <summary>
            /// Executes the workflow to get scan result.
            /// </summary>
            /// <param name="request">Instance of <see cref="GetScanResultRequest"/>.</param>
            /// <returns>Instance of <see cref="GetScanResultResponse"/>.</returns>
            protected override async Task<GetScanResultResponse> Process(GetScanResultRequest request)
            {
                ThrowIf.Null(request, nameof(request));

                var getBarcodeRequest = new GetBarcodeRequest(request.ScanInfo);
                var getBarcodeResponse = request.RequestContext.Execute<GetBarcodeResponse>(getBarcodeRequest);
                Barcode barcode = getBarcodeResponse.Barcode;
                BarcodeMaskType maskType = barcode == null ? BarcodeMaskType.None : barcode.Mask.MaskType;
                ScanResult result = new ScanResult(request.ScanInfo.ScannedText) { Barcode = barcode, MaskType = maskType };

                //For this sample, we skipped lot of logic inside this method. This should be used only for reference on how to override OOB request. The logic written inside this sample is different from the actual implementation of this handler.

                result.Product = await this.GetSingleProductByItemId(request.RequestContext, barcode.ItemBarcode.ItemId, barcode.ItemBarcode.InventoryDimensionId).ConfigureAwait(false);

                return new GetScanResultResponse(result);

            }

            private async Task<SimpleProduct> GetSingleProductByItemId(RequestContext context, string itemId, string inventDimId)
            {
                //do custom logic here. Execute any custom logic or request asynchronously.

                if (string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(itemId))
                {
                    return null;
                }

                var lookupClause = new ProductLookupClause { ItemId = itemId, InventDimensionId = inventDimId };

                var getProductRequest = new GetProductsServiceRequest(
                    context.GetPrincipal().ChannelId,
                    new[] { lookupClause },
                    QueryResultSettings.AllRecords);
                getProductRequest.SearchLocation = SearchLocation.Local;  // Scanned products must be found locally.
                var products = (await context.ExecuteAsync<GetProductsServiceResponse>(getProductRequest).ConfigureAwait(false)).Products;

                if (products.Results.IsNullOrEmpty() || products.Results.HasMultiple())
                {
                    // if product is not found or multiple products founds (not exact match) return 'null'
                    return null;
                }

                return products.Results.Single();

            }

        }
    }
}

Create a trigger asynchronously

To run the logic in the trigger asynchronously, extend the IRequestTriggerAsync interface, and add the logic.

namespace Contoso
{
    using System;
    using System.Collections.Generic;
    using System.Composition;
    using System.Threading.Tasks;
    using Microsoft.Dynamics.Commerce.Runtime.Messages;
    using Microsoft.Dynamics.Commerce.Runtime.DataServices.Messages;

    /// <summary>
    /// Test implementation of request trigger for <see cref="TestRequest"/>.
    /// </summary>
    public class SampleRequestTriggerAsync : IRequestTriggerAsync
    {
        private readonly Func<Task> onExecutingCallback;
        private readonly Func<Task> onExecutedCallback;

        public TestRequestTriggerAsync()
        {
        }

        [ImportingConstructor]
        public TestRequestTriggerAsync([Import("OnExecutingCallback")]Func<Task> onExecutingCallback, [Import("OnExecutedCallback")]Func<Task> onExecutedCallback)
        {
            this.onExecutingCallback = onExecutingCallback;
            this.onExecutedCallback = onExecutedCallback;
        }

        /// <summary>
        /// Gets the collection of request types supported by this trigger.
        /// </summary>
        public IEnumerable<Type> SupportedRequestTypes
        {
            get
            {
                return new[]
                {
                    // Add the request for pre or post trigger execution.
                    typeof(GetCustomerDataRequest)
                };
            }
        }

        /// <summary>
        /// Invoked before request has been processed by <see cref="IRequestHandler"/>.
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="request">The incoming request message.</param>
        /// <returns>The empty Task.</returns>
        public Task OnExecuting(Request request)
        {
            if (this.onExecutingCallback != null)
            {
                return this.onExecutingCallback();
            }

            return Task.CompletedTask;
        }

        /// <summary>
        /// Invoked after request has been processed by <see cref="IRequestHandler"/>.
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="request">The request message processed by handler.</param>
        /// <param name="response">The response message generated by handler.</param>
        /// <returns>The empty Task.</returns>
        public Task OnExecuted(Request request, Response response)
        {
            if (this.onExecutedCallback != null)
            {
                return this.onExecutedCallback();
            }

            return Task.CompletedTask;
        }
    }
}
