Overview

• This is an example Web App to demonstrate the use of Dotnet Core InMemoryCaching and using a distributed caching system "Redis".
• In this example, we run the redis cluster locally using Docker.
• For fetching the current weather, this App uses the OpenWeather APIs: https://openweathermap.org/
• We are creating a new Attribute class which also implements an IAsyncActionFilter interface to intercepts the requests and serve it from cache if it is present in cache. Else, this also caches the response which is used in subsequent API calls.

Running Redis Cluster via docker locally

docker run -p 6379:6379 --name redis-master -e REDIS_REPLICATION_MODE=master -e ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes bitnami/redis:latest
