Pode Mutli Threaded Route - how to find which thread the code is inside?

[millseyfletchers]

Hello everyone,

If I start a Route with say 8 threads, is it possibly to get a numeric of which thread the current running code is on? I have a weird web service I am calling and I want to have a separate login for each thread if that is possible?
Thanks in advance and thanks for Pode!

This is part of the upcoming version 2.12. It’s already available on the develop branch, so you can try it out today. There’s also a comprehensive chapter in the documentation that discusses runspace naming.

Some features are already present in 2.11 https://badgerati.github.io/Pode/Getting-Started/Debug/#internal-runspace-naming

If all you need is just a simple numeric ID within a Route, to select different credentials depending on thread/runspace, then you can use $ThreadId within a Route's scriptblock - or Middleware/Auth. $ThreadId will return a number from 1 to X, depending on the value supplied to -Threads on Start-PodeServer

Yes this works, thank you so much!
