Precisamento.Permify

Precisamento.Permify is a community C# SDK for the Permify API.

Usage

General

There are few interfaces available that have slightly different uses, but they all share the same default implementation (PermifyClient).

1. IPermifyClient

• Best for single tenant applications, or applications that only access a single tenant.
• The methods have descriptive parameters with sane defaults where expected.

2. IPermifyClientMultiTenant

• For applications that need to interact with mutliple tenants.
• All methods take a specific tenant as their first argument.
• The methods have descriptive parameters with sane defaults where expected.

3. IPermifyClientRaw

• Best for single tenant applications, or applications that only access a single tenant.
• The methods take and return API model objects that directly mirror the JSON requests.

4. IPermifyClientRawMultiTenant

• For applications that need to interact with mutliple tenants.
• All methods take a specific tenant as their first argument.
• The methods take and return API model objects that directly mirror the JSON requests.

5. IPermifyClientFull

• Useful for hybrid applications with one main tenant, but occasionally needing to interact with others.
• Union of the above interfaces.

Example

var schema = "..."; // Permify schema string

// Typically this would be loaded in from a config file or environment variables.
var options = new PermifyClientOptions()
{
  TenantId = "my-tenant", // Defaults to "t1"
  Secret = "MY_SECRET_KEY", // One of the keys when using the preshared keys authn config.
  Host = "http://localhost:3476" // URL of the Permify server
};

var httpClient = new HttpClient();
httpClient.BaseAddress = new Uri(options.Host);
httpClient.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("Authorization", $"Bearer {options.Secret}");

var permifyClient = new PermifyClient(httpClient, options.TenantId);

await permifyClient.CreateTenantAsync(options.TenantId, "My Tenant");
await permifyClient.WriteSchemaAsync(schema);

DependencyInjection

If this library is being used in an application using the C# DependencyInjection functionality (ASP.NET for example), the client can be registered using the AddPermify extension method. It will add all of the interface types to the IServiceCollection.

// App startup

// Typically this would be loaded in from a config file or environment variables.
var options = new PermifyClientOptions()
{
  TenantId = "my-tenant", // Defaults to "t1"
  Secret = "MY_SECRET_KEY", // One of the keys when using the preshared keys authn config.
  Host = "http://localhost:3476" // URL of the Permify server
};

var services = new ServiceCollection();

services.AddPermify(options);



// Get IPermifyClient via constructor

class MyController : Controller {
  private IPermifyClient _permify;

  public MyController(IPermifyClient permify) {
    _permify = permify;
  }
}

Install

This library can be installed from nuget under the name Precisamento.Permify.

dotnet add package Precisamento.Permify

Docs

The docs site is currently under construction. The library is reasonably well-commented with doc blocks, and the methods on IPermifyClient should be easily identifiable based on the Permify API documentation.
