Hosting service for local development

Pre-requisites

• GiantBomb API Key
• .NET Core 6.0 SDK
• Azure Functions Core Tools
• Azurite (blob service)

Setting Up

Create local.settings.json in src/SpectabisService/ with contents of code block below. Make sure to replace <giantbomb-key> with a valid GiantBomb API key.

{
    "AzureWebJobsStorage": "UseDevelopmentStorage=true",
    "ApiKey_GiantBomb": "<giantbomb-key>"
}

Alternatively, provide them as environment variables.

Running

• Start Blob storage emulator
• Run func host start --csharp -p 7071 at src/SpectabisService

You can run integration tests in Tests/ServiceTests to make sure everything is configured correctly. Default settings for tests are pointed to localhost:7071.

If test succeeds, Spectabis should connect to local service when built with debug configuration.
