CSharp Rest API 2

Introduction

So why two pages. I needed to revisit this and put my thoughts down as things happened

Setup

dotnet SDK

This first thing to note is the installing the dotnet SDK is best done via apt. I could not get this to work using snap

Project Structure

Overview

My plan is to create three projects, Api, Domain and Data in an attempt to try an be more clean about my approach.

Directory.Build.props

To achieve this I needed to make a Directory.Build.props file with the command.

dotnet new buildprops --use-artifacts

Obviously the defaults were rubbish and you end up thinking why not just type the file. Why indeed.

<Project>
  <PropertyGroup>
    <ArtifactsPath>$(MSBuildThisFileDirectory)Build</ArtifactsPath>
  </PropertyGroup>
</Project>

build.proj

Don't know why I needed to do this but here it is.

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.Build.Traversal/3.0.0"><PropertyGroup>  <UserSecretsId>cfe2b025-33ab-4dc2-a72a-0e79c417ce17</UserSecretsId>
  </PropertyGroup>
  <ItemGroup>
    <ProjectReference Include="**/*.*proj" />
  </ItemGroup>
</Project>

launch.json

Now the Launch file. Needed to comment out the section to stop the browser opening up each time. Why would you do this.

{
    "version": "0.2.0",
    "configurations": [
        {
            "name": ".NET Core Launch (web)",
            "type": "coreclr",
            "request": "launch",
            "preLaunchTask": "build",
            "program": "${workspaceFolder}/Build/bin/Api/debug/Api.dll",
            "args": [],
            "cwd": "${workspaceFolder}/Api",
            "stopAtEntry": false,
            // "serverReadyAction": {
            //     "action": "openExternally",
            //     "pattern": "\\bNow listening on:\\s+(https?://\\S+)"
            // },
            "env": {
                "ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT": "Development"
            },
            "sourceFileMap": {
                "/Views": "${workspaceFolder}/Views"
            },
        },
    ]
}

Next I need to make a launch.json

Configuration

Currently rolling with the appssetttings.json detailed on [CSharp Rest API]
