ASP.

NET Core Web API Guide

ASP.NET Core Web API is a framework for building RESTful services using the ASP.NET Core platform.

It allows developers to expose endpoints that can be consumed by clients such as mobile apps, web apps,

and other services.

Getting Started

- Install .NET 8 SDK from https://dotnet.microsoft.com

- Create a new API project:

dotnet new webapi -n MyApiApp

- Run the project:

cd MyApiApp

dotnet run

Project Structure

- Program.cs: Entry point, middleware configuration

- Controllers/: Where your API controllers live

- appsettings.json: Configuration file

Creating a Simple Controller

[ApiController]

[Route("api/[controller]")]

public class ProductsController : ControllerBase

[HttpGet]

public IActionResult Get() => Ok(new[] { "Item1", "Item2" });

Model Binding

ASP.NET Core supports binding data from the request using attributes like:

- [FromQuery]

- [FromBody]

ASP.NET Core Web API Guide

- [FromRoute]

- [FromHeader]

Dependency Injection

Services are added in Program.cs:

builder.Services.AddScoped<IProductService, ProductService>();

Injected into controllers:

public ProductsController(IProductService productService) { ... }

Middleware

Common middlewares include:

- UseRouting()

- UseAuthentication()

- UseAuthorization()

Versioning

Add API versioning via NuGet:

dotnet add package Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.Versioning

Configure in Program.cs:

builder.Services.AddApiVersioning(opt => {

opt.DefaultApiVersion = new ApiVersion(1, 0);

opt.AssumeDefaultVersionWhenUnspecified = true;

});

Swagger Documentation

Add Swagger via Swashbuckle.AspNetCore:

dotnet add package Swashbuckle.AspNetCore

In Program.cs:

builder.Services.AddEndpointsApiExplorer();

builder.Services.AddSwaggerGen();

Security

- Use HTTPS

- Apply [Authorize] attribute

- Use JWT or OAuth2 for token-based authentication

Conclusion

ASP.NET Core Web API provides a fast, scalable way to build modern web services. Combine it with EF

Core, Swagger, and good architecture practices for best results.
