Reviews:
- (D.R. 2021-11-29) - Thank you and congratulate you for an awesome plugin and project, it seriously simplifies things!
- (Guillaume B. 2021-11-08) - Thanks for your nice API template, it's frankly a very good job.I would recommend it, and I remain attentive to your future creations.
- (M.D. 2020-10-02) - Thanks for the good work. Your template was a perfect introduction into the API world.
- (Doug T. 2020-03-30) - Well worth the money even if 5 times the price - I would have paid more.
- (Helder G. 2019-12-30) - A great saving time template!!
Three steps only to create fully functional REST API:
- install the extension,
- update API appsettings.json with Data Source if not SQLEXPRESS and
- run created solution/service which initiates migration/seed services to get the API service info page
In extended vsix version additionally you can:
- run successfully default scaffolded tests in XUnit integration tests project,
- test API with Swagger API specification link on API service info page using test credentials my@email.com mysecretpassword123 to get security token,
- extend and customize you API solution by using T4 templates to scaffold 600+ lines of code (generates API, controller, domain, tests code, Postman tests and BLAZOR client code/pages) per added entity class; just compile your solution, add new db migration and run a service and successfully T4 generated tests,
- import to Postman generated API tests as json file or
- executes tests and generate/email htlm tests reports by PowerShell script and Newman command line
- DDoS API attacks protection service
- stored procedure implementation example
- minimal APIs implementation (Program and integration tests)
- automated tests scaffolding for added required entity members
- Blazor test app project connected to generated REST API
- Docker option for using/images/containers for API, Blazor web client and database
Core features version
RestApiN.vsix extension
- Three layers projects Api, Domain and Entity
- Automapper
- Dependency Injection
- UnitOfWork
- Generic Service
- Generic Repository with Entity Framework
- EF lazy loading and DB concurrency errors
- Sync and Async calls
- Generic exception handler
- Serilog logging with Console and File sinks
- Migrations and seed from json objects build your empty database
- JWT authorization/authentication for generated API
- T4 templates - simple code generation for domain and service classes
Extended features version
RestApiNEx.vsix extension
- All core features included.
- Swagger and Swashbuckle API documentation for .NET and Swagger authentication
- Select between Identity Server 4 or JWT authorization/authentication for generated API
- T4 templates - smart code generation driven by existing entity classes (inherits from BaseEntity). T4 templates generate code for related domain, service, controller and test classes based on added entity classes in single click. Great time saver!
- XUnit integration tests project added to the solution for IS4 mode or JWT authentication mode.
- Postman API tests as json file for import (IS4 and JWT tests). Import json and run the tests.
- Run Postman tests with PowerShell script with Newman command line implementation
- DDoS API attacks protection service
- Stored procedure example added to repository
- Blazor Web the service client
- JWT refresh token
- Docker option for using/images/containers for API, Blazor web client and database
Only four simple steps to extend original solution with your new entity and all the plumbing necessary for an REST API:
- INSTAL THE EXTENSION
- RUN REST API SERVICE OR RUN TESTS
- ADD CUSTOM ENTITY CLASS(ES)
- RUN T4 CODE GENERATOR TO SCAFFOLD ALL SUPPORTING CODE
