Dapr state management (HTTP Client)

In this quickstart, you'll create a microservice to demonstrate Dapr's state management API. The service generates messages to store in a state store. See Why state management to understand when to use this API.

Visit this link for more information about Dapr and State Management.

Note: This example leverages HTTP requests only. If you are looking for the example using the Dapr Client SDK (recommended) click here.

This quickstart includes one service:

• Dotnet client service order-processor

Run all apps with multi-app run template file

This section shows how to run applications at once using multi-app run template files with dapr run -f .. This enables to you test the interactions between multiple applications.

1. Open a new terminal window and run order-processor using the multi app run template defined in dapr.yaml:

cd ./order-processor
dotnet restore
dotnet build
cd ..

2. Run the Dotnet service app with Dapr:

    dapr run -f .

  dapr stop -f .

Run a single app at a time with Dapr (Optional)

An alternative to running all or multiple applications at once is to run single apps one-at-a-time using multiple dapr run .. -- dotnet run commands. This next section covers how to do this.

1. Run the Dotnet service app with Dapr:

cd ./order-processor
dapr run --app-id order-processor --resources-path ../../../resources/ -- dotnet run

2. Stop and clean up application processes

dapr stop --app-id order-processor
