I seem to be unable to store a simple object to cosmos db?
this is the database model.
public class HbModel
{
public Guid id { get; set; }
public string FormName { get; set; }
public Dictionary<string, object> Form { get; set; }
}
and this is how I store the data into the database
private static void SeedData(HbModelContext dbContext)
{
var cosmosClient = dbContext.Database.GetCosmosClient();
cosmosClient.ClientOptions.AllowBulkExecution = true;
if (dbContext.Set<HbModel>().FirstOrDefault() == null)
{
// No items could be picked hence try seeding.
var container = cosmosClient.GetContainer("hb", "hb_forms");
HbModel first = new HbModel()
{
Id = Guid.NewGuid(),//Guid.Parse(x["guid"] as string),
FormName = "asda",//x["name"] as string,
Form = new Dictionary<string, object>() //
}
string partitionKey = await GetPartitionKey(container.Database, container.Id);
var response = await container.CreateItemAsync(first, new PartitionKey(partitionKey));
}
else
{
Console.WriteLine("Already have data");
}
}
private static async Task<string> GetPartitionKey(Database database, string containerName)
{
var query = new QueryDefinition("select * from c where c.id = @id")
.WithParameter("@id", containerName);
using var iterator = database.GetContainerQueryIterator<ContainerProperties>(query);
while (iterator.HasMoreResults)
{
foreach (var container in await iterator.ReadNextAsync())
{
return container.PartitionKeyPath;
}
}
return null;
}
but when creating the item I get this error message
A host error has occurred during startup operation '3b06df1f-000c-4223-a374-ca1dc48d59d1'.
[2022-07-11T15:02:12.071Z] Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.Client: Response status code does not indicate success: BadRequest (400); Substatus: 0; ActivityId: 24bac0ba-f1f7-411f-bc57-3f91110c4528; Reason: ();.
Value cannot be null. (Parameter 'provider')
no idea why it fails? the data should not be formatted incorreclty? It also fails in case there is data in the dictionary.
What is going wrong?
