# Example Consumer
[](https://github.com/pactflow/example-consumer-dotnet/actions/workflows/build.yml)
 (latest pact)
This is an example of a dotnet core consumer using Pact to create a consumer driven contract, and sharing it via [PactFlow](https://pactflow.io).
It is using a private tenant on PactFlow. The latest version of the Example Consumer/Example Provider pact is published [here](https://testdemo.pactflow.io/pacts/provider/pactflow-example-provider-dotnet/consumer/pactflow-example-consumer-dotnet/latest).
The project uses a Makefile to simulate a very simple build pipeline with two stages - test and deploy.
* Test
* Run tests (including the pact tests that generate the contract)
* Publish pacts, tagging the consumer version with the name of the current branch
* Check if we are safe to deploy to prod (ie. has the pact content been successfully verified)
* Deploy (only from master)
* Deploy app (just pretend for the purposes of this example!)
* Tag the deployed consumer version as 'prod'
## Dependencies
* Docker
* A [PactFlow](https://pactflow.io) account
* A [read/write API Token](https://docs.pactflow.io/#configuring-your-api-token) from your PactFlow account
* .NET 8.x installed. You can install it from here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/install
## Usage
See the [PactFlow CI/CD Workshop](https://github.com/pactflow/ci-cd-workshop).
The below commands are designed for a Linux/OSX environment, please translate for use on Windows/PowerShell as necessary:
Please ensure the following environment variables have been exported in the process that you run the tests (generally a terminal):
```
export PACT_BROKER_TOKEN=
export PACT_BROKER_BASE_URL=https://.pactflow.io
```
### Run tests
```
make restore
make test
```
### Simulating CI
Usually, you would integrate this into a real CI system (such as Buildkite/Jenkins/CircleCI etc., or Travis as this repository is built against).
You can simulate a CI process with the following command:
```
make fake_ci
```
