Connection Name

Connections can be assigned a name which will appear in some of the server monitoring data. This name is not required, but is highly recommended as a friendly connection name will help in monitoring, error reporting, debugging, and testing.

nc, err := nats.Connect("demo.nats.io", nats.Name("API Name Option Example"))
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}
defer nc.Close()

// Do something with the connection

Options options = new Options.Builder()
    .server("nats://demo.nats.io:4222")
    .connectionName("API Name Option Example") // Set Name
    .build();
Connection nc = Nats.connect(options);

// Do something with the connection

nc.close();

// dotnet add package NATS.Net
using NATS.Net;

await using var client = new NatsClient(name: "API Name Option Example", url: "nats://demo.nats.io:4222");

// It's optional to call ConnectAsync()
// as it will be called when needed automatically
await client.ConnectAsync();

natsConnection      *conn    = NULL;
natsOptions         *opts    = NULL;
natsStatus          s        = NATS_OK;

s = natsOptions_Create(&opts);
if (s == NATS_OK)
    s = natsOptions_SetName(opts, "API Name Option Example");
if (s == NATS_OK)
    s = natsConnection_Connect(&conn, opts);

(...)

// Destroy objects that were created
natsConnection_Destroy(conn);
natsOptions_Destroy(opts);
