MVC Browser history provider for azure–trying an implementation for 3 hours

first, implement  IBrowserUserHistoryRepository  – that means implement:

public void Save(IEnumerable<BrowserUserHistoryData> history)

 

Azure have PartitionKey/RowKey – I have to add a new class.

Also or connectiing, I have to put

 

connectionString="UseDevelopmentStorage=true;" /

I tried to add a bulk history :

tableHistory.ExecuteBatch(batchOperation);

The result was:

Unexpected response code for operation : 0

Magic: 

<add key="TableStorageEndpoint" value="http://127.0.0.1:1002/"/>

And one hour has been gone.

Run dsinit to have storage emulator:

No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 127.0.0.1:10002

modified code to old Azure code:

now the answer was:

One of the request inputs is out of range.

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd135715.aspx – All letters in a container name must be lowercase.

Tried that – same result:

One of the request inputs is out of range.

Maybe timestam is wrong? No…

Now debug with Fiddler :

http://sepialabs.com/blog/2012/02/17/profiling-azure-storage-with-fiddler/

 

Added to connection string:

 

DevelopmentStorageProxyUri=http://ipv4.fiddler

 And see this in Fiddler :

<d:PartitionKey>zungb4ovunqjd5rtal5ytc3r</d:PartitionKey>

<d:RowKey>http://localhost:2728/</d:RowKey>

: base(UserName, UserName)

So the problem is that RowKey does not support url values.

Now , after removing url from the RowKey  - and put username, the error was:

The specified entity already exists

Another hour passes

——————

Now, that it works, thinking about rowkey and partitionkey : no username + url => put date.ToString("yyyyMMdd_HHmmss_tttt")

0:The specified entity already exists.

Oh no, not again?

Look tables =>20121220_064024_AM -  ok, it should be

date.ToString("yyyyMMdd_HHmmss_ffffzzz")

0:The specified entity already exists

Again? debug, please

The real problem:

Forget about sending whole items history - not just not saved ones…

Now it works – kind of

Server Error in ‘/’ Application.

The method or operation is not implemented.

public IEnumerable<KeyValuePair<string, int>> MostUsed(int Count, DateTime? date)
Line 80:         {
Line 81:             throw new NotImplementedException();
Line 82:         }
Line 83: 

-----------

Implementing MostUsed(int Count, DateTime? date) 

Research about filter with data - http://storageextensions.codeplex.com/SourceControl/changeset/view/81826#1914483

Research about GroupBY – not supported!http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsazure/dd135725.aspx

So now thinking about a way to STORE the data in a convenient format to can retrieve…

 It must take into consideration Count for a date and Count for all dates( date can be null) – AND BOTH THE FACT THAT THE OPERATION WILL BE DONE PER USER.

Time to think – because another hour has passed!
