Walkthrough

The PerformDiagnostics method in the diagnostics controller was updated to use InvokeAsync<bool> for SignalR message delivery, allowing the server to await a boolean response from the client. If the client cannot process the message as intended, the server now retries by sending a simplified message using SendAsync.

Changes

File(s) Change Summary
.../Boilerplate.Server.Api/Controllers/Diagnostics/DiagnosticsController.cs Updated SignalR logic in PerformDiagnostics to use InvokeAsync<bool>, await client response, and retry with SendAsync if needed.

Objective Addressed Explanation
Improve SignalR invocation logic in the boilerplate project template (#11066)

Poem

A message sent, a signal awaits,
If the client can’t handle, the server restates.
With Boolean wisdom, the flow is now right,
Diagnostics improved, both day and night.
🐇✨ SignalR hops, connection delight!

Pull Request Overview

This PR enhances the diagnostics controller to invoke a client-side SignalR method and fall back to a simple message if the client cannot perform the custom action.

  • Replace SendAsync with InvokeAsync<bool> to capture success feedback
  • Add fallback SendAsync when InvokeAsync returns false
Comments suppressed due to low confidence (2)

src/Templates/Boilerplate/Bit.Boilerplate/src/Server/Boilerplate.Server.Api/Controllers/Diagnostics/DiagnosticsController.cs:62

  • The new fallback branch isn't covered by existing tests. Add a unit or integration test that simulates a false return from InvokeAsync to verify the simple message is sent.
            if (success is false) // Client would return false if it's unable to show the message with custom action.

src/Templates/Boilerplate/Bit.Boilerplate/src/Server/Boilerplate.Server.Api/Controllers/Diagnostics/DiagnosticsController.cs:61

  • [nitpick] The variable name success is generic. Consider renaming it to something more descriptive, like isMessageDisplayed or invokeSucceeded, to improve readability.
            var success = await appHubContext.Clients.Client(signalRConnectionId).InvokeAsync<bool>(SignalREvents.SHOW_MESSAGE, $"Open terms page. {DateTimeOffset.Now:HH:mm:ss}", new { pageUrl = Urls.TermsPage, action = "testAction" }, cancellationToken);

if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(signalRConnectionId) is false)
{
await appHubContext.Clients.Client(signalRConnectionId).SendAsync(SignalREvents.SHOW_MESSAGE, $"Open terms page. {DateTimeOffset.Now:HH:mm:ss}", new { pageUrl = Urls.TermsPage, action = "testAction" }, cancellationToken);
var success = await appHubContext.Clients.Client(signalRConnectionId).InvokeAsync<bool>(SignalREvents.SHOW_MESSAGE, $"Open terms page. {DateTimeOffset.Now:HH:mm:ss}", new { pageUrl = Urls.TermsPage, action = "testAction" }, cancellationToken);

The call to InvokeAsync<bool> can throw if the client method isn't implemented or the connection is lost. Consider wrapping it in a try-catch to handle exceptions and trigger the fallback scenario.

[nitpick] Using success is false works, but the more conventional idiom is if (!success). Switching to !success can make the code more immediately familiar to readers.

Suggested change
if (success is false) // Client would return false if it's unable to show the message with custom action.
if (!success) // Client would return false if it's unable to show the message with custom action.
