字符串长度超过32768个字符时的Azure存储异常

Question

My application is an ASP.NET Core 1.0 Web API. If my controller returns a small string, everything works fine. But if the string length gets longer than 32768, i'm getting the following error message:

--- End of stack trace previous location where exception was thrown ---

This is my Controller:

[HttpGet]
[Produces("plain/text")]
public async Task<IActionResult> GetData()
{
    return this.Ok(this.GetResponse());
}

private string GetResponse()
{
    string retVal = string.Empty;
    for (int i = 0; i < 32769; i++)
    {
        retVal = retVal + "a";
    }
    return retVal;
}

The full error message:

I would like to return strings way longer than 32768.

Any advices?

Answer 1

You are encountered the Azure Storage limit for the string property type ( source ):

Edm.String (String) - A UTF-16-encoded value. String values may be up to 64 KB in size.

Because UTF-16 encoded strings require 2 bytes to store an character the maximum string length is 32768 characters.

Answer 2

Though this has already been answered, I'd like to propose solution for anyone else who might come across this thread. I needed to store significantly more than 64k in a single property in my table entity. I found several references online to Lokad Fat Entities, however, it seems it is no longer actively supported and I had runtime errors with the version available on NuGet.org. So, here is a class that is inspired by Lokad's solution. I hope others find it useful.

    public class ExtEntity<T> : TableEntity where T : new()
{
    private const int MAX_BYTES_PER_ARR = 65500; // don't use full 64k to avoid any weird edge case

    // Serialized in DB and deserialized for callers
    public Byte[] A0 { get; set; }
    public Byte[] A1 { get; set; }
    public Byte[] A2 { get; set; }
    public Byte[] A3 { get; set; }
    public Byte[] A4 { get; set; }
    public Byte[] A5 { get; set; }
    public Byte[] A6 { get; set; }
    public Byte[] A7 { get; set; }
    public Byte[] A8 { get; set; }
    public Byte[] A9 { get; set; }
    public Byte[] A10 { get; set; }
    public Byte[] A11 { get; set; }
    public Byte[] A12 { get; set; }
    public Byte[] A13 { get; set; }
    public Byte[] A14 { get; set; }
    public Byte[] A15 { get; set; }
    private T value;

    public T Value
    {
        // Accessors automatically serialize and deserialize T value
        get
        {
            // ASSUMES that value will never change after first time deserialized!
            if (this.value == null)
            {
                int n = 0;
                using (var memStream = new MemoryStream())
                {
                    while (true)
                    {
                        string propName = "A" + n++;
                        PropertyInfo prop = this.GetType().GetProperty(propName);
                        byte[] arr = (byte[])prop.GetValue(this);
                        if (arr == null || arr.Length == 0)
                        {
                            break;
                        }
                        memStream.Write(arr, 0, arr.Length);
                    }
                    memStream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);
                    var binForm = new BinaryFormatter();
                    this.value = (T)binForm.Deserialize(memStream);
                }
            }
            return this.value;
        }
        set
        {
            // First, ensure the type is serializable.
            if (!typeof(T).IsSerializable && !(typeof(ISerializable).IsAssignableFrom(typeof(T))))
                throw new InvalidOperationException("ExtEntity<T>.get_Value Exception: A serializable Type is required.");

            // Assign the value
            this.value = value;

            // Then searialize it for Table Storage use
            BinaryFormatter bf = new BinaryFormatter();
            using (var memStream = new MemoryStream())
            {
                // Serialize into memory stream, then seek back to origin
                bf.Serialize(memStream, this.value);
                memStream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);

                // Chunk data from memory stream into stored properties
                int bytesRemaining = (int)memStream.Length;
                int n = 0;
                while (bytesRemaining > 0)
                {
                    if (n > 15)
                    {
                        throw new ApplicationException("ExtEntity<T>.set_Value Exception: Data is too large.");
                    }
                    int numToRead = Math.Min(bytesRemaining, ExtEntity<T>.MAX_BYTES_PER_ARR);
                    byte[] arr = new byte[numToRead];
                    int numRead = memStream.Read(arr, 0, numToRead);
                    if (numRead != numToRead)
                    {
                        throw new ApplicationException("ExtEntity<T>.set_Value Exception: Unexpected number of bytes returned.");
                    }

                    string propName = "A" + n++;
                    PropertyInfo prop = this.GetType().GetProperty(propName);
                    prop.SetValue(this, arr);
                    bytesRemaining -= numRead;
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

Sample usage:

public class RawDataBlockEntity : ExtEntity<RawDataBlock>
{
    public RawDataBlockEntity(string rawDataId, string blockId, RawDataBlock block)
    {
        this.PartitionKey = rawDataId;
        this.RowKey = blockId;

        this.Value = block;
    }

    public RawDataBlockEntity() { }
}

尝试这个：

return new ContentResult { Content = this.GetResponse(), StatusCode = 200 };
