🌟 Demo

Live Demo: https://valordolarhoy.herokuapp.com/

📋 Features

• 🔄 Reactive Architecture: Uses Rx.NET for asynchronous and reactive handling
• 💾 Smart Caching: In-memory and Redis caching system for performance optimization
• 🛡️ Resilience: Implements Polly for retry policies and circuit breakers
• 📊 Monitoring: Health checks and automatic warmup
• 🧪 Complete Testing: Unit tests, integration tests and code coverage
• 🚀 Performance: Optimized for high concurrency
• 📱 React Frontend: Modern interface with React and TypeScript

🏗️ Architecture

Technology Stack

• Backend: ASP.NET Core 9.0, C# 13
• Frontend: React 18, TypeScript
• Reactive Programming: Rx.NET
• Caching: Redis + Memory Cache
• Testing: xUnit, Moq
• Deployment: Docker, Heroku

Design Patterns

• Reactive Programming: Observable patterns with Rx.NET
• Repository Pattern: For data access
• Dependency Injection: Native IoC container
• Circuit Breaker: For resilience in external calls
• Caching Strategy: Multi-layer caching

Code Examples

Reactive Controller

[HttpGet]
public async Task<IActionResult> GetLatestAsync()
{
    return await TaskExecutor.ExecuteAsync(this.currencyService.GetLatest());
}

Service with Cache and Fallback

public IObservable<CurrencyDto> GetFallback()
{
    string cacheKey = GetCacheKey();
    
    return this.keyValueStore.Get<CurrencyDto>(cacheKey).FlatMap(currencyDto =>
    {
        return currencyDto != null
            ? Observable.Return(currencyDto)
            : this.GetFromApi().Map(response =>
            {
                this.executorService.Run(() =>
                    this.keyValueStore.Put(cacheKey, response, 60 * 10).ToBlocking());
                return response;
            });
    });
}

Configured HTTP Client

services.AddHttpClient<ICurrencyClient, CurrencyClient>()
    .SetTimeout(TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(1500))
    .SetMaxConnectionsPerServer(20)
    .SetMaxParallelization(20);

Unit Test Example

[Fact]
public void Get_Latest_Ok_Fallback_FromApi()
{
    this.keyValueStore.Setup(store => store.Get<CurrencyDto>("bluelytics:v1"))
        .Returns(Observable.Return(default(CurrencyDto)));
    this.currencyClient.Setup(client => client.Get()).Returns(GetLatest());
    
    CurrencyService currencyService = new(this.currencyClient.Object, this.keyValueStore.Object);
    
    CurrencyDto currencyDto = currencyService.GetFallback().ToBlocking();
    
    Assert.NotNull(currencyDto);
    Assert.Equal(10.0M, currencyDto.Official!.Buy);
    Assert.Equal(11.0M, currencyDto.Official.Sell);
    Assert.Equal(12.0M, currencyDto.Blue!.Buy);
    Assert.Equal(13.0M, currencyDto.Blue.Sell);
}

Integration Test Example

[Fact]
public async Task Basic_Integration_Test_InternalServerErrorAsync()
{
    this.currencyService.Setup(service => service.GetLatest())
        .Returns(Observable.Throw<CurrencyDto>(new ApiException()));

    HttpResponseMessage httpResponseMessage = await this.httpClient.GetAsync("/Currency");
    string responseString = await httpResponseMessage.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
    
    ErrorHandlerMiddleware.ErrorModel? errorModel = JsonConvert
        .DeserializeObject<ErrorHandlerMiddleware.ErrorModel>(responseString);

    Assert.NotNull(errorModel);
    Assert.Equal(500, errorModel.Code);
    Assert.Equal(nameof(ApiException), errorModel.Type);
