Overview  On 'vue-360' Library:

fileName - need to specify the file name.
disableZoom - disabling zoom functionality. The default value is 'false'.
ScrollImage - Scroll images instead of default zoom. The default value will be 'false'.

Create A Sample Vue 2.0 Application:

The 'vue-360' library works fine with Vue 2.0 application, at the time of the article creation this plugin is not working with Vue 3.0 might be supported in future releases.

Install 'vue-360' Library:

npm install vue-360

Configure Font-Awsome Icons:

The 'vue-360' library adds some action buttons like 'Play', 'Next Image', 'Previous Image', etc. For these buttons, the library uses font-awsome icons. So we need to add a font-awesome CSS file to render those action buttons. Add the CSS file in the 'public/index.html' page inside of the HTML header tag.
public/index.html:(inside of the Html header tag)

Prepare Images To Use In 360-Degree Vue Component:

Normally images can be saved within our own application and consume or can consume other website images(websites are hosted only for images).

For this sample, I'm saving images within my vuejs application. The area we will store is inside of the 'public' folder.
We should have a collection of images with different angles to frame 360-degree image animation. And one important rule we have to follow is each image name should contain a number, that number defines the order for images to frame the 360-degree animation.

Configure 'vue-360' Library Vue Component And CSS:

Now we have to configure 'VueThreeSixty' component in the main.js file. The main.js file is the entry file for the application, so any configuration made in this file called a global or root configuration. Need to import the 'vue-360' library CSS file on the main.js.
import Vue from 'vue'
import App from './App.vue'
import VueThreeSixty from 'vue-360'

import 'vue-360/dist/css/style.css'


Vue.config.productionTip = false

new Vue({
  render: h => h(App),
  • (Line: 3) Loading 'VueThreeSixty' component from 'vue-360' library.
  • (Line: 5) Imported CSS reference of  'vue-360' library.
  • (Line: 7) Configured 'VueThreeSixty' component into the application 'Vue' instance.

Render 'vue-360' Vue Component:

The 3 main input properties to configuration 'vue-three-sixty' component are 'amount', 'imagePath', 'filename'.

Now clean up all the existing code in the 'HelloWorld.vue' component add the below code:
src/components/HelloWorld.vue:(Html Part)
  <div >
  • The 'vue-three-sixty' is a vue component derived from the 'vue-360' library.
  • (Line: 4) The property 'amount' set with a value to '16'. This count value is the number of images to frame the 360-degree animation.
  • (Line: 5) The property 'imagePath'. If you are using different domain images then use the entire image URL by excluding the image name in the URL. If you are using images within the application that are saved in the 'public' folder then use the folder path inside of the 'public' folder. Here for this sample, I stored images inside of the 'bike360' folder that saved inside of the 'public' folder. So my in case 'imagePath' value will be './bike360'.
  • (Line: 6) The property 'fileName'. Here I mentioned image's name should contain a number to determine the order of the images. So number value passed dynamically by the 'vue-three-sixty' component by using its context variable 'index'.
  • So 'vue-three-sixty' component loads images inside of the 'imagePath' specified then it creates a nice 360-degree image animation.
Now we can also play with additional input properties like 'loop', 'autoplay', 'boxShadow', etc of 'vue-360' library component.

Blazor WebAssembly Custom Authentication From Scratch

In this article, we are going to explore and implement custom authentication from the scratch. In this sample, we will use JWT authentication for user authentication. Main Building Blocks Of Blazor WebAssembly Authentication: The core concepts of blazor webassembly authentication are: AuthenticationStateProvider Service AuthorizeView Component Task<AuthenticationState> Cascading Property CascadingAuthenticationState Component AuthorizeRouteView Component AuthenticationStateProvider Service - this provider holds the authentication information about the login user. The 'GetAuthenticationStateAsync()' method in the Authentication state provider returns user AuthenticationState. The 'NotifyAuthenticationStateChaged()' to notify the latest user information within the components which using this AuthenticationStateProvider. AuthorizeView Component - displays different content depending on the user authorization state. This component uses the AuthenticationStateProvider

How Response Caching Works In Asp.Net Core

What Is Response Caching?: Response Caching means storing of response output and using stored response until it's under it's the expiration time. Response Caching approach cuts down some requests to the server and also reduces some workload on the server. Response Caching Headers: Response Caching carried out by the few Http based headers information between client and server. Main Response Caching Headers are like below Cache-Control Pragma Vary Cache-Control Header: Cache-Control header is the main header type for the response caching. Cache-Control will be decorated with the following directives. public - this directive indicates any cache may store the response. private - this directive allows to store response with respect to a single user and can't be stored with shared cache stores. max-age - this directive represents a time to hold a response in the cache. no-cache - this directive represents no storing of response and always fetch the fr

Endpoint Routing In Asp.Net Core

How Routing Works In  Core 2.1 And Below Versions?: In Asp.Net Core routing is configured using app.UseRouter() or app.UseMvc() middleware. app.UseMvc(routes => { routes.MapRoute( name: "default", template: "{controller=Home}/{action=Index}/{id?}"); }); Here in Dotnet Core version 2.1 or below versions on the execution of route middleware request will be navigated appropriate controller matched to the route. An operation or functionality which is dependent on route URL or route values and that need to be implemented before the execution of route middleware can be done by accessing the route path from the current request context as below app.Use(async (context, next) => { if(context.Request.Path.Value.IndexOf("oldvehicle") != -1) { context.Response.Redirect("vehicle"); } else { await next(); } }); app.UseMvc(routes => { routes.MapRoute( name: "vehicleRoute", template: "vehicle", defaul

Asp.Net Core MVC Form Validation Techniques

Introduction: Form validations in any applications are like assures that a valid data is storing on servers. All programing frameworks have their own individual implementations for form validations. In Dotnet Core MVC application server-side validations carried on by the models with the help of Data Annotations and the client-side validations carried by the plugin jQuery Unobtrusive Validation. jQuery Unobtrusive Validation is a custom library developed by Microsoft based on the popular library  jQuery Validate . In this article, we are going to learn how the model validation and client-side validation works in Asp.Net Core MVC Application with sample examples. Getting Started: Let's create an Asp.Net Core MVC application project using preferred editors like Microsoft Visual Studio or Microsoft Visual Studio Code. Here I'm using Visual Studio. Let's create an MVC controller and name it as 'PersonController.cs' and add an action method as bel

.NET Core MVC Application File Upload To Physical Location With Buffered Technique

Buffering Technique In File Upload: The server will use its Memory(RAM) or Disk Storage to save the files on receiving a file upload request from the client.  Usage of Memory(RAM) or Disk depends on the number of file requests and the size of the file.  Any single buffered file exceeding 64KB is moved from Memory to a temp file on disk.  If an application receives heavy traffic of uploading files there might be a chance of out of Disk or RAM memory which leads to crash application. So this Buffer technique used for small files uploading. In the following article, we create a sample for the file uploading using .NET Core MVC application. Create The .NET Core MVC Project: Let's create a .NET Core MVC project, here for this sample I'm using Visual Studio Code as below.   Check the link to use the Visual Studio Code for .NET Core Application . IFormFile: Microsoft.AspNetCore.Http.IFormFile used for file upload with buffered technique. On uploading files f

Ionic Picker Sample Code In Angular

Introduction: Ionic Picker(ion-picker) is a popup slides up from the bottom of the device screen, which contains rows with selectable column separated items. The main building block of ion-picker as follows: PickerController PickerOptions PickerController: PickerController object helps in creating an ion-picker overlay. create(opts?: Opts): Promise<Overlay> PickerController create method helps in create the picker overlay with the picker options PickerOptions: PickerOptions is a configuration object used by PickerController to display ion-picker.

GraphQL API Integration In Asp.Net Core Application

Introduction: GraphQL is a query language for your API and a server-side runtime for executing queries by using a type system you define for your data. GraphQL can be integrated into any framework like ASP.NET, Java, NestJs, etc and it isn't tied to any specific database or storage engine and is instead backed by your existing code and data. How GraphQL API Different From Rest API: GraphQL exposes a single end-point or route for the entire application, regardless of its responses or actions. HTTP-POST is the only Http verb recommended by the GraphQL. The client applications (consumers of API) can give instructions to GraphQL API about what type of properties to be returned in the response. Building Blocks Of GraphQL API: The main building blocks of GraphQL API is Schemas and Types.  A 'Schema' in GrpahQL API describes the functionality available to the clients connect to API. Schema mostly consists of GraphQL Object Types, Queries, Mutations, etc. T

ASP.NET Core Web API Versioning

Introduction: An iteration and evolutionary changes of an ASP.NET Core Web API is handled by Versioning. Versioning of an API gives confidence to the clients which consumes API for a long time. Any changes or development of an API will be accessible using the new version and it won't cause issues to the clients consuming the old version of API. When To Use Versioning: Any API response changes. Developing an API by implementing testing levels like 'Alpha', 'Beta', and 'RC' versions before releasing Production. Deprecating an API which means API going to be removed or upgraded by a version within a short period. Versioning Types: Query String Versioning Url Path Versioning Media Type Versioning API Version Nuget: To Configure versioning to AspNet Core Web API Microsoft provided a library(Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.Versioning). So to use the versioning library please install NuGet below.              Install-Package Microsoft.A

.Net Core HttpClient JSON Extension Methods Using System.Net.Http.Json Package

.Net Core 3.0 onwards Microsoft brought up a new package called System.Net.Http.Json. This new package provides JSON extension methods for HttpClient. These JSON extension methods will have a prebuild mechanism for serializing or deserializing response data or payload of HttpClient call. System.Net.Http.Json extension methods that are provided to HttpClient, few of them are mentioned below. GetFromJsonAsync PostAsJsonAsync PutAsJsonAsync ReadFromJsonAsync In this article, we understand System.Net.Http.Json package by implementing the HttpClient samples by with and without JSON extension methods and compare them. Create A .Net Core Web API Sample Application: Let's create a .Net Core sample Web API application, from this application we will consume another Web API by implementing HttpClient calls. We can create a Web API sample application using IDE like Visual Studio 2019(Supports .Net Core 3.0 plus) or  Visual Studio Code . Create A Typed Client: In .Net Core using the Http

Blazor Server CRUD Operations

Introduction: Blazor Server is a web framework to develop server-side single-page applications. Blazor is made up of components with the combinations on C#, Html, CSS.  Blazor Server is production-ready from the .Net Core 3.0.  Blazor Server Working Mechanism: Blazor Server is a very light-weight web development framework.  In Blazor Server, not all code gets downloaded to the client browsers. Blazor Server made of components these components can be a block of code or page with respective navigation.  Blazor server application communicates with the server with a SignalR background connection which is inbuilt functionality. Application click,  form submission, change events, application page navigation every operation is carried out by the SignalR connection by communicating with the server.  Blazor updates the Html DOM very gently on every data update without any overhead. Blazor Server application maintains a nice intelligent tree structure to update the required inform
