# Simple DynamoDB Persistence Usage


This sample shows a client/server scenario using saga persistence.

## Prerequisites

This sample uses a [DynamoDB local instance](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/DynamoDBLocal.html) by default. See the [AWS guidance on deploying DynamoDB local](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/DynamoDBLocal.DownloadingAndRunning.html#docker).

Alternatively with Docker installed locally, execute the following command in the solution directory:

```bash
docker-compose up -d
```

the data is only kept in memory and will be gone when the container is removed.

## Projects

### Client

* Sends the `StartOrder` message to `Server`.
* Receives and handles the `OrderCompleted` event.

### Server projects

* Receive the `StartOrder` message and initiate an `OrderSaga`.
* `OrderSaga` requests a timeout with an instance of `CompleteOrder` with the saga data.
* `OrderSaga` publishes an `OrderCompleted` event when the `CompleteOrder` timeout fires.

### SharedMessages

Contains the shared message contracts used by all endpoints.

## Persistence config

Configure the endpoint to use DynamoDB Persistence.

<!-- snippet: DynamoDBConfig -->

```cs
var amazonDynamoDbClient = new AmazonDynamoDBClient(
    new BasicAWSCredentials("localdb", "localdb"),
    new AmazonDynamoDBConfig
    {
        ServiceURL = "http://localhost:8000"
    });

var endpointConfiguration = new EndpointConfiguration("Samples.DynamoDB.Simple.Server");

var persistence = endpointConfiguration.UsePersistence<DynamoPersistence>();
persistence.DynamoClient(amazonDynamoDbClient);
persistence.UseSharedTable(new TableConfiguration
{
    TableName = "Samples.DynamoDB.Simple"
});
```

## Order saga data

<!-- snippet: sagadata -->

```cs
public class OrderSagaData :
    ContainSagaData
{
    public Guid OrderId { get; set; }
    public string OrderDescription { get; set; }
}
```

<!-- endsnippet -->

## Order saga

<!-- snippet: thesaga -->

```cs
public class OrderSaga(ILogger<OrderSagaData> logger) :
    Saga<OrderSagaData>,
    IAmStartedByMessages<StartOrder>,
    IHandleTimeouts<CompleteOrder>
{
   protected override void ConfigureHowToFindSaga(SagaPropertyMapper<OrderSagaData> mapper)
    {
        mapper.MapSaga(saga => saga.OrderId).ToMessage<StartOrder>(msg => msg.OrderId);
    }

    public Task Handle(StartOrder message, IMessageHandlerContext context)
    {
        var orderDescription = $"The saga for order {message.OrderId}";
        Data.OrderDescription = orderDescription;

        logger.LogInformation("Received StartOrder message {OrderId}. Starting Saga", Data.OrderId);

        var shipOrder = new ShipOrder
        {
            OrderId = message.OrderId
        };

       logger.LogInformation("Order will complete in 5 seconds");
        var timeoutData = new CompleteOrder
        {
            OrderDescription = orderDescription,
        };

        return Task.WhenAll(
            context.SendLocal(shipOrder),
            RequestTimeout(context, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(5), timeoutData)
        );
    }

    public Task Timeout(CompleteOrder state, IMessageHandlerContext context)
    {
        logger.LogInformation("Saga with OrderId {OrderId} completed", Data.OrderId);
        MarkAsComplete();
        var orderCompleted = new OrderCompleted
        {
            OrderId = Data.OrderId
        };
        return context.Publish(orderCompleted);
    }
}
```
