The Penzle .NET SDK is a library that allows developers to easily integrate with the Penzle Content Delivery and Content Management APIs. This SDK is designed for .NET developers who want to create, update and retrieve content from the Penzle platform.
)
To install the Penzle .NET SDK, you can use the following options:
- Run the following command in the Package Manager Console:
Install-Package Penzle.Net
- Run the following .NET CLI command in the command-line:
dotnet add <your project> package Penzle.Net
To retrieve content from the Penzle APIs, you will use the DeliveryPenzleClient class. This class provides methods for retrieving content from the Penzle Delivery API.
You will use ManagementPenzleClient class to create, update, and delete content.
You can use a client with DI/IoC or without DI/IoC.
var client = DeliveryPenzleClient
.Factory
(
apiDeliveryKey: "<delivery_api_key>",
(api) =>
{
api.Environment = "<environment_name>";
api.Project = "<project_name>";
}
); public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
services.AddPenzleClient(Configuration);
} public class HomeController
{
private IDeliveryPenzleClient client;
public HomeController(IDeliveryPenzleClient deliveryPenzleClient)
{
client = deliveryPenzleClient;
}
}After creating a Penzle client, you can retrieve data from Penzle APIs:
// Retrieving a single entry by ID
var entry = await client.Entry.GetEntry<Author>(<author_id>);
Console.WriteLine(entry.Summary); // => Penzle author.
Console.WriteLine(entry.Age); // => 27.
Create a strong type model that is compatible with your data template first before you do anything else.
public sealed class Author
{
public string Summary { get; set; }
public int Age { get; set; }
}If you need system data of the entry, add an EntrySystem property to the class.
public sealed class Author
{
public EntrySystem System { get; init; }
public string Summary { get; set; }
public int Age { get; set; }
}The GetEntries return collections of strongly-typed objects, based on the content types you have defined in your Penzle project.
You can use LINQ to filter, sort and transform the content before it is returned.
// Use query builder to define request parameters.
var query = QueryEntryBuilder.New
.Where(x => x.Summary.Contains("J") && x.Age >= 30)
.OrderBy(x => x.Id)
.Select(x => new { x.Id, x.FirstName });
var entries = await client.Entry.GetEntries<Author>(query: query);
// Print the entries to the console.
foreach (var entry in entries)
{
// Print the entry system fields.
Console.WriteLine(value: $"Summary {entry.Summary}");
Console.WriteLine(value: $"Age: {entry.Age}");
}You can find complete examples in the.NET 7 console project, which is written in a "How to" approach for developers. Visit Penzle.Net.GettingStarted to view all examples of how to use various methods in console applications.
To create, update or delete data in your Penzle project, you will need to use the Penzle Management API. The Penzle .NET SDK provides a ManagementPenzleClient class that you can use to interact with the management API:
var client = ManagementPenzleClient
.Factory
(
apiManagementKey: "<management_api_key>"
); // Create a new instance of the form entry.
var author = new Author
{
Summary = "David Smith",
Age = 20,
};
// Create a new instance of the entry.
var medicalReleaseId = await client.Entry.CreateEntry(author, CancellationToken.None);The official SDK documentation provides detailed information about the various classes and methods available in the SDK. Please follow the documentation for more details.
