Learning Transport

The Learning Transport is a simple file-based transport used mainly for local development and tutorials.

Configuration

To use the Learning Transport, define it under transports and reference it as current-transport.

Example

current-transport: local-learning

transports:
  - name: local-learning
    learning-transport-config:
      storage-directory: C:\Source\tutorials-quickstart\.learningtransport
      restrict-payload-size: true

`learning-transport-config` Fields

Field	Required	Type	Default	Description
`storage-directory`	Yes	string	—	Absolute path where Learning Transport stores message files.
`restrict-payload-size`	No	boolean	`true`	Enforces the NServiceBus payload size limit. Set to `false` if you need to send larger payloads.

Field Details

`storage-directory` (required)

This must be an absolute file path. The Learning Transport stores outgoing and incoming messages in a folder structure at this location. If this value is missing, Busly reports an error and exits.

Example:

storage-directory: C:\MyProject\.learningtransport

`restrict-payload-size` (optional, default: `true`)

When enabled (the default), Busly enforces the same message size limits as NServiceBus.

Set to false if using large JSON payloads or test messages.

Example:

restrict-payload-size: false
