IDistributedCache implementation for AzureTableStorage

DistributedCache.AzureTableStorage

• Based on oceanweb/azuretablestoragecache but with lower dependencies.
• Extra added logic to use strongly typed objects with IDistributedCache instead of byte arrays.

Info

NuGet

Code example

Configure in code (option 1)

c# code:

// Configure in code
services.Configure<AzureTableStorageCacheOptions>(options =>
{
    options.TableName = "CacheTest";
    options.PartitionKey = "ConsoleApp";
    options.ConnectionString = "UseDevelopmentStorage=true;";
});

Configure via appsettings.json (option 2)

appsettings.json:

"AzureTableStorageCacheOptions": {
  "ConnectionString": "UseDevelopmentStorage=true;",
  "TableName": "CacheTest",
  "PartitionKey": "ConsoleApp"
}

c# code:

// Configure via app.setttings
services.Configure<AzureTableStorageCacheOptions>(Configuration.GetSection("AzureTableStorageCacheOptions"));

Add DistributedAzureTableStorageCache to services

services.AddDistributedAzureTableStorageCache();

Usage

IDistributedCache cache = ... // injected via DI

var test = new TestModel
{
    Id = 1,
    Name = "Test 1"
};

// Set an item in the cache using an expiration from 30 seconds
var cacheOptions = new DistributedCacheEntryOptions { AbsoluteExpirationRelativeToNow = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(30) };
await cache.SetAsync("t1", test, cacheOptions);

// Retrieve the item from the cache
var t2 = await cache.GetAsync<TestModel>("t1");
logger.LogInformation("t2 : {TestModel}", JsonConvert.SerializeObject(t2));
