using RavenDB with ServiceStack

Question

I read this post by Phillip Haydon about how to use NHibernate/RavenDB with ServiceStack.
I don\'t see the point about getting the IDocumentStore and open new session every

Answer 1

I just included this on the Configure method for the AppHost

var store = new DocumentStore()
{
    Url = "http://127.0.0.1:8080",
    DefaultDatabase = "Test"
}.Initialize();

container.Register(store);

container.Register(c => c.Resolve().OpenSession()).ReusedWithin(ReuseScope.Request);

You can put it aside on module and initialize it.

Then in your services just add a constructor that accepts IDocumentSession

public HelloService : Service {
    private readonly IDocumentSession session;
    public HelloService(IDocumentSession session) {
        this.session = session;
    }
}

And you're good to go.
