C#

Scenarios

To use C# to call an API through App authentication, obtain the C# SDK, open the project file in the SDK, and then call the API by referring to the API calling example.

Preparing the Environment

  • You have obtained the domain name, request URL, and request method of the API to be called, and the AppKey and AppSecret of the App for calling the API. For more information, see Preparation.
  • You have installed Visual Studio. If not, download it from the official Visual Studio website and install it.

Obtaining the SDK

  1. Log in to the DataArts Studio console.
  2. Click DataArts DataService.
  3. In the navigation pane, choose DataArts DataService Exclusive > SDKs.
  4. On the SDKs page, download the SDK package.
  5. Verify integrity of the SDK package. In Windows, open the CLI and run the following command to generate the SHA-256 value of the downloaded SDK package. In the command, D:\java-sdk.zip is an example local path and name of the SDK package. Replace it with the actual value. 

    certutil -hashfile D:\java-sdk.zip SHA256

    The following is an example command output:

    SHA-256 hash value of D:\java-sdk.zip
a7c0195ebf297f29ab0065da16d7e84f14911de177e6e0c8dbadf3464d12b75f
CertUtil: -hashfile command executed.

    Compare the SHA-256 value of the downloaded SDK package with that provided in the following table. If they are the same, no tampering or packet loss occurred during the package download.

Opening a Project

Double-click csharp.sln in the SDK package to open the project. The project contains the following:

  • apigateway-signature: Shared library that implements the signature algorithm. It can be used in the .Net Framework and .Net Core projects.
  • backend-signature: Example of a backend service signature.
  • sdk-request: Example of invoking the signature algorithm. Modify the parameters as required. For details about the sample code, see API Calling Example.

API Calling Example

  1. Import the C# SDK to your project. 

    1
    		 
    using APIGATEWAY_SDK;

  2. Generate a new signer and enter the AppKey and AppSecret. 

    1
2
3
    		 
    Signer signer = new Signer();
signer.Key = "4f5f626b-073f-402f-a1e0-e52171c6100c";
signer.Secret = "******";

  3. Generate an HttpRequest, and specify the method, request URL, and body. 

    1
2
3
    		 
    HttpRequest r = new HttpRequest("POST",    
                    new Uri("https://{apig-endpoint}/app1?query=value"));
r.body = "{\"a\":1}";

  4. Add a header to the request. The header contains specific parameters. Add other headers to be signed as necessary. 

    1
2
    		 
    r.headers.Add("x-stage", "RELEASE");
r.headers.Add("name","value");

  5. Execute the following function to generate HttpWebRequest, and add the X-Sdk-Date and Authorization headers for signing the request: Then, add the x-Authorization header to the request. The value of the x-Authorization header is the same as that of the Authorization header. 

    1
2
    		 
    HttpWebRequest req = signer.Sign(r);
req.Headers.Add("x-Authorization", string.Join(", ", req.Headers.GetValues("x-Authorization"));

  6. Access the API and view the access result.

5
6
    		 
    var writer = new StreamWriter(req.GetRequestStream());
writer.Write(r.body);
writer.Flush();
HttpWebResponse resp = (HttpWebResponse)req.GetResponse();
var reader = newStreamReader(resp.GetResponseStream());
Console.WriteLine(reader.ReadToEnd());
