Managed Wrapper for Azure Rest API?

Question

Is there a managed wrapper for the Azure Rest API?  I do not feel like constructing these REST requests from scratch.  Is there anything out there, you would think Microsoft would provide this out of the box?

Answer 1

Yes, of course there is. Look at the WindowsAzure.StorageClient namespace http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.windowsazure.storageclient.aspx

Answer 2

Yes, of course there is. Look at the WindowsAzure.StorageClient namespace http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.windowsazure.storageclient.aspx

better yet, have a look at

http://blogs.msdn.com/b/paolos/archive/2011/02/21/yet-another-application-to-handle-windows-azure-storage-services.aspx|

a sample that shows you how to use every single method of the StorageClient

Answer 3

Ryan's answer is specifically about the Windows Azure storage API.

There's also a Service Management API (for doing deployments, etc.), a Service Bus API, Access Control, etc... Not all of the APIs in the platform have managed client libraries, but many do.

Answer 4

If you're looking for a managed wrapper for the Service Management API there's one on NuGet: http://nuget.org/packages/WindowsAzure.ServiceManagement.Library

In the above code sample, you may use the underlying Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ServiceManagement.dll to call the REST APIs through managed code...
