EtcdNet

EtcdNet is a .NET client library to access etcd (protocol V2), which is a distributed, consistent key-value store for shared configuration and service discovery.

Provides API for all key space operations
Support authentication & client-certificate
Support etcd cluster & failover
Lightweight & zero dependency on other assembly
Task-based Asynchronous Pattern (TAP) API
Structured Exceptions
.NET Framework minimal requirement : v4.5

Get Started

Installation

To install etcdnet, run the following command in the Package Manager Console of Visual Studio. Or you can search etcdnet in NuGet

Install-Package etcdnet

Basic Usage

Instantiate EtcdClient class, then make the call.

using EtcdNet;

var options = new EtcdClientOpitions() {
    Urls = new string[] { "http://etcd0.em:2379" },
    //...
};
EtcdClient etcdClient = new EtcdClient(options);

string value = await etcdClient.GetNodeValueAsync("/some-key");
//...

Here you can find detailed api doc for EtcdClient class. More examples can be found below.

EtcdClientOpitions

EtcdClientOpitions allows to customize the EtcdClient.

EtcdClientOpitions options = new EtcdClientOpitions() {
    Urls = new string[] { "https://server1", "https://server2", "https://server3" },
    Username = "username",
    Password = "password",
    UseProxy = false,
    IgnoreCertificateError = true, 
    X509Certificate = new X509Certificate2(@"client.p12"),
    JsonDeserializer = new NewtonsoftJsonDeserializer(),
};

Urls If you are running a etcd cluster, more then one urls here.
Username & Password are required when etcd enables basic authentication
UseProxy controls if use system proxy
IgnoreCertificateError ignores untrusted server SSL certificates. This is useful if you are using a self-signed SSL cert.
X509Certificate is required when etcd enabled client certification.
JsonDeserializer allows you to choose a different JSON deserializer. EtcdNet aims to avoid dependency on other 3rd-party assembly. Hence it takes use of the built-in DataContractJsonSerializer to deserialize JSON. This parameter allows you to use other JSON deserializer like Newtonsoft.Json or ServiceStack.Text.

class NewtonsoftJsonDeserializer : EtcdNet.IJsonDeserializer
{
    public T Deserialize<T>(string json)
    {
        return Newtonsoft.Json.JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<T>(json);
    }
}

Thread Safety

The implementation of EtcdClient class is guaranteed to be thread-safe, which means the methods of the same instance can be called from different threads without synchronization.

Further, it is recommended to use only one EtcdClient instance to talk to the same etcd cluster. System.Net.Http.HttpClient class, which emits HTTP requests internally, uses its own connection pool, isolating its requests from requests executed by other HttpClient instances. Sharing the same EtcdClient instance helps to utilize features like HTTP pipelining.

Exception Handling

Each of the error code defined by etcd is mapped to an individual exception class.

 EtcdGenericException
  ├── EtcdCommonException
  |    ├─ KeyNotFound
  |    ├─ TestFailed
  |    ├─ NotFile
  |    ├─ NotDir
  |    ├─ NodeExist
  |    ├─ RootReadOnly
  |    └─ DirNotEmpty
  ├── EtcdPostFormException
  |    ├─ PrevValueRequired
  |    ├─ TTLNaN
  |    ├─ IndexNaN
  |    ├─ InvalidField
  |    └─ InvalidForm
  ├── EtcdRaftException
  |    ├─ RaftInternal
  |    └─ LeaderElect
  └── EtcdException
       ├─ WatcherCleared
       └─ EventIndexCleared

Hence you have the choice to handle a specific error, or a group errors.

try {
    //...
}
catch (EtcdCommonException.KeyNotFound) {
    // 100 error
}
catch (EtcdCommonException.NodeExist) {
    // 105 error
}
catch (EtcdCommonException) {
    // 100-199 errors
}
catch (EtcdGenericException) {
    // all etcd errors
}

Some methods which accept ignoreKeyNotFoundException parameter, allows you to ignore EtcdCommonException.KeyNotFound exception to make the code simpler.

Examples

Update by key

await etcdClient.SetNodeAsync(key, "value to be set");

Get a key

try {
    EtcdResponse resp = await etcdClient.GetNodeAsync(key);
}
catch(EtcdCommonException.KeyNotFound) {
    // key does not exist
}

Get a key (ignore key-not-found error)

EtcdResponse resp = await etcdClient.GetNodeAsync(key, ignoreKeyNotFoundException: true);

Get value by key

string value = await etcdClient.GetNodeValueAsync(key, ignoreKeyNotFoundException: true);

Create a new key

try {
    EtcdResponse resp = await etcdClient.CreateNodeAsync(key, value);
}
catch (EtcdCommonException.NodeExist) {
    // node already exists
}

Create a in-order key

etcdClient.CreateInOrderNodeAsync(key, value, ttl: 3);

Delete a key

try {
    EtcdResponse resp = await etcdClient.DeleteNodeAsync(key);
}
catch(EtcdCommonException.KeyNotFound) {
    // key does not exist
}

Delete a key (ignore key-not-found error)

await etcdClient.DeleteNodeAsync(key, ignoreKeyNotFoundException: true);

List child keys in order

try {
	EtcdResponse resp = await etcdClient.GetNodeAsync(key, recursive: true, sorted:true);
	if (resp.Node.Nodes != null) {
	    foreach (var node in resp.Node.Nodes)
	    {
	        // child node
	    }
	}
}

string prevValue = ...;
try {
    EtcdResponse resp = await etcdClient.CompareAndSwapNodeAsync(key, prevValue, newValue);
}
catch (EtcdCommonException.KeyNotFound) {
    // key does not exist

    // key does not exist
}
catch (EtcdCommonException.TestFailed) {
    // supplied prevValue does not match
}

Keep key alive

async void KeepAlive()
{
    string key = "/my/key";
    string value = ...;
    const int ttl = 20; // seconds

    while (_running)
    {
        try
        {
            await _etcdClient.SetNodeAsync(key, value, ttl: ttl);
            if (!_running) return;
            await Task.Delay(ttl / 2 * 1000);
            continue;
        }
        catch (EtcdGenericException ege)
        {
            // etcd returns an error code
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            // a generic error
        }

        if (!_running) return;
        // something went wrong, delay 1 second and try again
        await Task.Delay(1000);
    }
}

Watch changes

async void WatchChanges()
{
	string key = "/my/key";
	long? waitIndex = null;
	EtcdResponse resp;
	while (_running)
	{
		try
		{
			// when waitIndex is null, get it from the ModifiedIndex
			if( !waitIndex.HasValue )
			{
				resp = await _etcdClient.GetNodeAsync( key, recursive: true);
				if( resp != null && resp.Node != null )
				{
					waitIndex = resp.Node.ModifiedIndex + 1;

					// and also check the children
					if( resp.Node.Nodes != null )
					{
						foreach( var child in resp.Node.Nodes )
						{
							if (child.ModifiedIndex >= waitIndex.Value)
								waitIndex = child.ModifiedIndex + 1;

							// child node
						}
					}
				}
			}

			// watch the changes
			resp = await _etcdClient.WatchNodeAsync(key, recursive: true, waitIndex: waitIndex);
			if (resp != null && resp.Node != null)
			{
				waitIndex = resp.Node.ModifiedIndex + 1;

				if (resp.Node.Key.StartsWith(key, StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase))
				{
					switch(resp.Action.ToLowerInvariant())
					{
						case EtcdResponse.ACTION_DELETE:

			// time out, try again
		}
		catch(EtcdException ee)
		{
			// reset the waitIndex
			waitIndex = null;
		}
		catch (EtcdGenericException ege)
