Orleans Templates

Orleans Templates increase Orleans developers productivity by offering a set of Visual Studio templates that spare developers from routine configuration and from writing boiler-plate code. It was created by Microsoft Studios (BigPark). It offers the following:

• A full solution template for Visual Studio that contains projects for Grains, GrainInterfaces, Local Silo and REST Api.
• A set of Attributes backed by a compile-time code generation (using Roslyn) to reduce boiler-plate code. In fact, we support placing ASP.NET routing attributes directly on the Grain Interface and we generate the corresponding Api Controllers for you. In addition, we offer a SingleWriterMultipleReaders attribute that can be placed on a grain interface and allows the Grain to respond to multiple read requests in parallel (scale on read access).

Documentation

Contribute!

We welcome and appreciate contributions of all sorts including suggestions, bug fixes, improvements, more tests, etc.

One of the best way to contribute would be to add new Attributes that offer useful functionality or save users from writing boiler-plate code. Please consult the Code Generation Documentation and the source code for more information on how to add new Attributes.
