Middleware Tasks:

1. Log Request Processing Time:


 Implement a middleware that implement
IMiddleware to calculates the time taken to
process a request.
 Log the request method, path, and total
processing time.
 Use app.Use to register this middleware.

2. Restrict Access Based on Time:


 Implement a middleware that only allows access
to the application during specific hours (9 AM - 5
PM).
 If a request is made outside of these hours, return
an HTTP 403 Forbidden with a message: "Access
is restricted to working hours."
 Use app.Use to register this middleware.

Routing Tasks

1. Project Setup:

 Create a new ASP.NET Core mvc empty


application (using .NET 9
 Configure all endpoints in Program.cs using
MapGet, MapPost

2. Course Model:

Create a model class called Course with the following


properties:
 int CourseId
 string CourseName
 decimal CourseFee
 string CourseDuration

3. Fixed List of Courses:

Define an in-memory, fixed list (for example, a


List<Course>) containing several sample courses.

Sample Data:

 Course 1:
o CourseId = 101
o CourseName = "C# for Beginners"
o CourseFee = 250
o CourseDuration = "8 weeks"

 Course 2:
o CourseId = 102
o CourseName = "ASP.NET Core Fundamentals"
o CourseFee = 300
o CourseDuration = "10 weeks"

 Course 3:
o CourseId = 103
o CourseName = "Entity Framework Core"
o CourseFee = 200
o CourseDuration = "6 weeks"

Endpoints:

1- URL: /
Method: GET

4- POST "/course" – Add a New Course:
URL: /course
Method: POST

adds it to the list.

Validation: Ensure CourseId is unique.

If the course exists, return HTTP 400 with a message.

5- GET "/course-fee/{courseId}" – Apply Discount
