ServiceStack | Thoughtfully architected, obscenely fast

will ServiceStack extends support for SOAP service in .NET 6? We’ve seen from documentation that SoapFormat plug-in requires .NET Framework

I have an self-hosted application written originally using ServiceStack 3.x, where I had dozens of APIs with a route starting with /api

Upon licensing ServiceStack 6, all routes starting with /api are failing with the following error:

Our shop has been using ServiceStack libraries for several years now without many issues. Recently, after upgrading from the 5.12 version to the 6.0 version, we are seeing a credential-based authentication request returning no BearerToken.

I have read the release notes section on JWT changes, here, and I understand the "breaking" change, as well as here, where it describes how to revert back to returning the bearer token in the response. However, the suggested change is for the JwtAuthProvider, not the CredentialsAuthProvider. The CredentialsAuthProvider does not have a UseTokenCookie property.

Is there a way to revert back to returning the bearer token in the authentication response, when the auth provider is a CredentialsAuthProvider?

For what it's worth, here is the relevant server code:

It seems like the IAppSettings implementation was not ready from IoC in the constructor.

Before I go into details, I've read similar problems:

• ServiceStack doesn't auto-wire and register AppSettings
• Instantiation of POCO objects with ServiceStack's IAppSettings is not working

Both were answered by @mythz that he was not able to reproduce it.

"ServiceStack made AppSettings a first-class property, which defaults to looking at .NET's App/Web.config's.": https://docs.servicestack.net/appsettings#first-class-appsettings

And there is default IoC registration already in Funq to give you AppSettings when you ask for IAppSettings:

All my codes are in the repo: https://github.com/davidliang2008/MvcWithServiceStack

The demo app is just an ASP.NET MVC app (.NET 4.8) that built using the template, the simplest you can get, with ServiceStack (5.12.0) installed:

We use ServiceStack 5.9.2 and have a ready, running application build with Visual Studio. Is it possible to add additional services to this application which were build in another Visual Studio solution? It provides a DLL which could be copied to the Exe of the host application. The application would have to detect the services in the copied dll on startup.

Just read https://docs.servicestack.net/modularizing-services#modularizing-services-in-multiple-assemblies but I'am not sure if that is possible/ allowed.

Can you help me point out how should I start on this:

I'm new to API , and I'm currently working on ASP.NET Core 3.1 MVC paired with Microsoft SQL Server. I have requirement that I should use API (ServiceStack) for a certain method.

My question are :

• how or where do I start from my existing project solution?
• If I use API should it be calling on SQL also? (I supposed the data will stay on db)
• with regards to first question : they gave me a link where I can see this.

Where should I start , I'm just so confused.

I've looked up on youtube but there's no similar case to mine, they all use in-memory. Suggestions and advice are welcome !

I started a new project with ServiceStack v6. I noticed that when I use routes starting with /api, they will produce a NotImplementedException when called. I believe this is due to the new API Explorer UI implemented on ServiceStack v6. I am not entirely sure about this but I have a hunch this might be the culprit.

Is there any way to disable API Explorer UI? I want my /api routes to work as they used to work on ServiceStack 5.13.2 Or perhaps changing the /api prefix handler to something else would also be fine by me, API Explorer UI seems like a feature I would like to use.

Removing /api from my route will make it work just fine. An interesting observation is that it will also work if I add another slash before /api and essentially call http://localhost//api/chat/join

Working example:

I have a custom attribute and I want to check via a GlobalFilter, if the methods I'm calling has this marker attribute. I can't find a way, to get the information that the called method where my request aims to has the Attribute. I've found already another post, which recommends to use FilterAttributeCache.GetRequestFilterAttributes(request.GetType()) but this and also other methods are retuning just no elements.

Could you please help me in what I'm missing here?

Following the example code:

CustomAttribute:

I would like to use API key to access secured ServiceStack web service simply as possible:

• I do not want to be able to register an user
• I do not need user permissions or roles
• Custom API key permissions would be a plus:
  • Be able to limit some service to a specific API key.
• API keys will be managed directly from the database
• What are the classes or methods I need to override? There are many extension points but I do not know what to keep and what to rewrite:
  • OrmLiteAuthRepository (base?)
  • ApiKeyAuthProvider
  • AuthUserSession

I am able to call a service with Bearer token (API key). It returns 200 Forbidden.

ApiKeyAuthProvider.AuthenticateAsync():
