---

Loki provides an easy way to handle locking scenarios on distributed systems.

Features

• Support Redis locking handler for primary
• Support MSSQL locking handler for secondary
• Multiple locking handlers can be added such as MongoDB etc
• Secondary locking handler can be set for against connection failure problems

Basic Loki Workflow

NuGet Packages

Install-Package LokiNet 

Usage

Firstly you have to easily initialize the Loki with LokiConfigurationBuilder.

List<EndPoint> redisEndPoints = new List<EndPoint>
{
	new DnsEndPoint("redisUri", redisPort)
};

LokiConfigurationBuilder.Instance.SetServiceKey("SimpleTestClient")
						.SetPrimaryLockHandler(new RedisLokiLockHandler(redisEndPoints.ToArray()))
						.Build();

Then just use Locking.Instance.ExecuteWithinLock() method where you want to provide concurrency.

Locking.Instance.ExecuteWithinLock(() =>
{
	//do somethings..
},  expiryFromSeconds: 2);

Also you can easily implement custom locking handlers.

public class FooLockHandler : LokiLockHandler
{
    public override bool Lock(string serviceKey, int expiryFromSeconds)
    {
        //Lock operations
    }

    public override void Release(string serviceKey)
    {
        //Release operations
    }
}

If you want to use MSSQL locking handler for secondary, firstly you need to create LokiLockings table as below:

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[LokiLockings](
	[ServiceKey] [varchar](50) NOT NULL,
	[CreationDate] [datetime] NOT NULL,
 CONSTRAINT [PK_LokiLockings] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED 
(
	[ServiceKey] ASC
))

then just:

LokiConfigurationBuilder.Instance.SetServiceKey("SimpleTestClient")
						.SetPrimaryLockHandler(new RedisLokiLockHandler(redisEndPoints.ToArray()))
						.SetSecondaryLockHandler(new MSSQLLokiLockHandler("connectionString"))
						.Build();
