AvatarScriptLink.NET

Essentially, AvatarScriptLink.NET is a framework for managing and manipulating myAvatar ScriptLink OptionObjects. What it does is accelerate the development of clean and stable myAvatar ScriptLink-compatible APIs.

Example

Most ScriptLink-compatible APIs are built with a local version of the NTST.ScriptLinkService.Objects library. Here's what a "Hello, World!" response might look like in this scenario.

[WebMethod]
public OptionObject RunScript(OptionObject optionObject, string parameter)
{
    OptionObject returnOptionObject = new OptionObject();

    returnOptionObject.ErrorCode = 3;
    returnOptionObject.ErrorMesg = "Hello, World!";

    returnOptionObject.EntityID = optionObject.EntityID;
    returnOptionObject.EpisodeNumber = optionObject.EpisodeNumber;
    returnOptionObject.Facility = optionObject.Facility;
    returnOptionObject.OptionId = optionObject.OptionId;
    returnOptionObject.OptionStaffId = optionObject.OptionStaffId;
    returnOptionObject.OptionUserId = optionObject.OptionUserId;
    returnOptionObject.SystemCode = optionObject.SystemCode;

    return returnOptionObject;
}

With AvatarScriptLink.NET, this same code can be simplified to:

[WebMethod]
public OptionObject RunScript(OptionObject optionObject, string parameter)
{
    return optionObject.ToReturnOptionObject(ErrorCode.Informational, "Hello, World!");
}

Likewise, to bring this same API up to the latest OptionObject version doesn't require accounting for the new properties. Just update the OptionObject version and import the new/updated WSDL into myAvatar.

[WebMethod]
public OptionObject2015 RunScript(OptionObject2015 optionObject, string parameter)
{
    return optionObject.ToReturnOptionObject(ErrorCode.Informational, "Hello, World!");
}
