Amazon SQS .NET Object Interface

A higher-level interface to Amazon SQS for .NET. It features an object queue that serializes objects to JSON internally. Also included is a simple WPF app for observing queues and messages. Depends on the AWS SDK for .NET (included).

Example Usage

Create an instance of AmazonSqs.ObjectQueue:

AmazonSqs.ObjectQueue queue = new AmazonSqs.ObjectQueue(
    ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["AWSAccessKey"],   // Or your AWS access key
    ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["AWSSecretKey"],   // Or your AWS secret key
    "MyQueue"                                           // Any queue name
);

queue.Enqueue<List<string>>(new List<string>(new string[] { "Hello", "World", "Bro" }));

Serialized objects must be less than 256K in length. Unfortunately, there's no way of knowing if a type is serializable unless you can successfully serialize and deserialize it. The only thing the library does is ensure your type is a reference type with a default constructor.

// Meanwhile in another place and at another time...

var mylist = queue.DequeueOne<List<string>>();  // Deletes message from queue!

// If you don't want to automatically delete the message you can peek it.

ObjectMessage<List<string>> msg = queue.Peek<List<string>>();
queue.DeleteMessage(msg.ReceiptHandle);

*If you want to run the tests, make a copy of App.config.sample and name it App.config. Add your AWS credentials to the example appSettings.

amazonsqs's Issues

DLL Issue with AmazonSqs Repository

Looks like your repo is referencing directly the AWSSDK DLL in your lib folder (v1.3.50), which is different to the NuGet version that the core library (AmazonSqs) depends on.

So when i install via NuGet, i get an error saying AWSSDK v1.3.5.0 is not found.

So you need to remove the hardcoded dependency to AWSSDK in your lib folder, and replace it with a NuGet reference.
