Is it possible to include support for CrmServiceClient ?

[pavansarma93]

Currently I am having an azure function V1.1 which uses Crmserviceclient to perform Dynamics operations. However all the stub methods available in FakeXrmEasy are plugin or workflow related.

Is it possible to provide support for CrmServiceClient ?

Here is a sample code to test I am using

`using System;
using System.Linq;
using System.Net;
using System.Net.Http;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs;
using Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Extensions.Http;
using Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Host;
using Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.Query;
using Microsoft.Xrm.Tooling.Connector;

namespace FnApp_Framework
{
public static class Function1
{
[FunctionName("Function1")]
public static async Task Run([HttpTrigger(AuthorizationLevel.Function, "get", "post", Route = null)]HttpRequestMessage req, TraceWriter log)
{
log.Info("C# HTTP trigger function processed a request.");
string name = req.GetQueryNameValuePairs()
.FirstOrDefault(q => string.Compare(q.Key, "name", true) == 0)
.Value;
try
{
string con = @"
AuthType = ClientSecret;
ClientId = clientid;
ClientSecret = clientsec;
Url = https://crm.crm11.dynamics.com/;";

            //System.Net.WebProxy
            CrmServiceClient service = new CrmServiceClient(con);


            if (service.IsReady)
            {
                QueryExpression query = new QueryExpression("account");
                service.RetrieveMultiple(query);
                log.Info("ready");
            }
        }
        catch(Exception ex)
        {
            log.Info(ex.Message);
            log.Info(ex.StackTrace);
        }
            if (name == null)
        {
            // Get request body
            dynamic data = await req.Content.ReadAsAsync<object>();
            name = data?.name;
        }

        return name == null
            ? req.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.BadRequest, "Please pass a name on the query string or in the request body")
            : req.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.OK, "Hello " + name);
    }
}

}`

HI @pavansarma93 ,

It is already there.

Since FakeXrmEasy provides mocks for the IOrganizationService interface, and CrmServiceClient implements such interface, you could also mock these requests too.

The plugin and workflow helpers are, in fact, helpers on top of that functionality. The most valuable aspect of FakeXrmEasy is it's low-level mocking and in-memory query engine.

Hope this helps!

Hi Sandeep @sandeep-chinni ,

There is a newer version of the framework that supports .net core and the new Dataverse client already implemented for you here: https://github.com/DynamicsValue/fake-xrm-easy.

Here's a new docs site to get you started: https://dynamicsvalue.github.io/fake-xrm-easy-docs/quickstart/

Important: That new implementation is still open source and free of charge for open source repositories and non-commercial use, but requires a small fee for commercial purposes in private repos: https://dynamicsvalue.github.io/fake-xrm-easy-docs/licensing/

Why is important: The commercial license supports a sustainable OSS model and is going to significantly be more cost effective for your company than yourself:

• Upgrading and porting FakeXrmEasy to .net core and the new DataverseClient
• Implement and maintain parallel versions of FakeXrmEasy for both server side development (because DataverseClient is not meant to be used for that), and client-side development with DataverseClient, until, eventually, there is full parity (in the fullness of time...)
• All the new features, fixes and security patches we'll be adding that will be covered in your subscription and that you, again, won't have to implement
• Up to date documentation and release notes
• Basic support and answering support feedback, and questions (like this one)

Most of the api in v1.x is forward compatible to v2.x and v3.x, so the transition should be fairly straightforward.

@jordimontana82 Thank you for the response. I have started a discussion in the repo for the newer version of the framework. Here: DynamicsValue/fake-xrm-easy#29

Using the newer repo has not resolved my issue or at least I don't know how.

[jordimontana82]

Thanks, will carry on in the thread, cheers

Any update on this?
I am not able to set IOrganisationservice, to this CrmServiceClient.
. Net core Azure Function code.
Thank you very much.

Hi @KannanPooja this repo is deprecated, it won't receive further improvements like that one. This discussion has been moved to the new repo (with a different licensing model) here: DynamicsValue/fake-xrm-easy#29

If you check that other discussion, you'll the new version already implements ServiceClient, most of the time you'll just need the interfaces, we're discussing adding some initial support for extension methods that only live in the ServiceClient class and that are not defined at the interface level. For extension methods like these it would make sense, otherwise the interfaces in the new version of FakeXrmEasy v3.x should work fine.

If you're already a commercial customer, then please drop us an email at https://dynamicsvalue.com/contact.

Thanks!
