10、n keep a two-way chatty communication channel open Client can attach a RequestReceived event handler to its own AppServiceConnection instanceBoth client and server can send and receive messages,AppServiceConnectionStatus connectionStatus = await connection.OpenAsync(); if (connectionStatus = AppServ

11、iceConnectionStatus.Success) connection.RequestReceived += OnRequestReceived; ,Debugging Tips,Getting the PackageFamilyName for the App Service Debugging your App Service,Getting the Service PackageFamilyName,Store Associate App with the Store sets the store assigned PackageFamilyName You dont have

12、to associate your app for testing! Call Package.Current.Id.FamilyName to return PFN to use in debugging,Debugging App Services,Set breakpoints in app service code Check Do not launch but debug my code when it starts in project properties Launch app service foreground app in debugger nothing happens!

13、 Run client app to connect to app service Debugger attaches and breaks on your breakpoint,Demo: App Services,More considerations on App Services,App Service Lifetime,Service is activated on-demand Background Task activated by means of an AppServiceTrigger Client may terminate service by disposing it

14、s AppServiceConnection You can build in capability for your service to shutdown through a message from a client If the invoking app is suspended, app services sponsored by the app will be terminated Insufficient resources may cause launch failure or service termination Invoking app will get AppServi

15、ceConnectionStatus.ResourcesNotAvailable when connecting May get AppServiceResponseStatus.ResourceLimitsExceeded when sending message,What Protocol?,App Services are designed to be flexible and light-weight and are modelled on web REST Web services Simple Request-Response message API Data packaged a

16、s string-keyed ValueSets Easy to use with multiple different payloads When you publish an App Service, you are defining a communications endpoint An App Service endpoint provides the Caller a way to send data to the Callee An App Service endpoint also provides the Caller a way to request return valu

17、es from the Callee and for the Callee to respond with these return values.,App services provides another way for applications to communicate with each other,Nice to do: Implementing a Client SDK ,Wrap the low-level service communication implementation details inside a more functional set of methods

18、Publish a client SDK for your service Distribute as a NuGet package or by other means,Can I restrict access to my App Service?,Build your own caller validation mechanisms on top of app services Simplest is for service provider to whitelist callers based on their PackageFamilyName PackageFamilyName o

19、f caller is passed with every request Possible to build more complicated caller validation mechanisms on top of ValueSets once a connection has been established Whitelist could be followed by explicit X.509 certificate exchange,Versioning,Follow the Web REST API versioning model If you need to make

20、a breaking change to an App Service endpoint, you must expose a new endpoint and provide backward compatibility with the old one,Demo: App Services client library,Final Thoughts,Its not just about XAML Windows App clients!
