IAsyncEnumerable, My Favorite C# 8 Feature That No One Is Using

Today we'll take a look at IAsyncEnumerable, one of my favorites we got in C# 8!

System.Linq.Async? I learned something new 😁

Great explanation. For F# programmers, consider using the 'TaskSeq' Nuget Lib, which brings 'await foreach' to F# using Computation Expressions like 'task {...}' and 'seq{...}'.

Nicely done! I love the way you explain things. You're a natural teacher!

[jamesmussett]

Im lucky enough to use it on a daily basis. Extremely useful when working with sensors, networking, or any kind of real time streaming where the data being returned can potentially be infinite. Great video 👍 keep it up!

Amichai, I'm so glad I found your channel. You're the GOAT

[egtdig]

Hey, first time viewer of the channel. Thumbs up for the short & informative video, liked it very much. Could you please share what kind of skin are you using for your terminal? It seems very useful.

[alexlo]

Thank u for the video. I want to suggest another topic related to DDD/Design/Architecture. Could u post a video about anemic code/design? Cons and pros. Thank u.

The biggest surprise to me is how easy it is to implement lazy code using yields eveywhere!

[Osirus]

I agree with your opinion on why it wasn't more widely accepted. I used it quite a bit on a project and we ended up needing to write helper methods just to work with them when those helpers could have just been built in. I am hoping someday Microsoft gives it another pass to consolidate it. It is very nice when calling paged APIs though.

How do you get IAsyncEnumerable to work in an api contoller or minimal api? No matter what I try it still buffers the responses and sends them all at one time. Thanks

[arnonoordover]

Correct. Even in the XStreamingElement you cannot use this…😢

[deus_nsf]

What about EF Core though? How will it interact with it? One SQL request per element of the collection? Or will it fetch all the collection like with a standard List?

[auronedgevicks]

lol by the 3min mark I already tuned out. KISS

[nayanchoudhary]

I just used it today and was wondering about cancellationtoken usage. And just saw your video!Great timing! 🙂
I see you have used break keyword without cancellation token. I couldn't find such concise explanation anywhere. Thank you!

But can you explain use of cancellation token with iasyncenumerable?

[MyFuzzyAfterlife]

Random question, but what do you use to draw the boxes and arrows on your screen ? In today’s remote working environment I’m really looking for something this

[alonmore]

Would you use it as a return type in web api controllers?

[OmriKipi]

Thanks ! great video, but the sound quality is not great.

[justinian.erdmier]

This is awesome and I think will solve a pretty nasty bit of code I haven't been able to simplify. One question: Isn't printing the statement "Received 10 numbers" a bit misleading? The Console.WriteLine() only gets called once, but if the NumbersClient only returns a page of 10 (with the range of 0-9), then 11 would only be in our final results if the NumbersClient returned a second page (so actually 20 numbers). I'm not too familiar with the yield keyword, so that part kind of confused me.

Do you plan to get back to the DDD / Clean Arch series? :)

[thanzeeljalaldeen]

is it possible to get the source code for this please?
