asp.net-web-api2

I have created a WEB API using MySQL Database. The API works as expected for now. I sent a meter serial number and a date time parameter and then GET the expected result. Below is my controller public MDCEntities medEntitites = new MDCEntities(); public HttpResponseMessage GetByMsn(string msn, DateTime dt) { try { var before = dt.AddMinutes(-5); var after = dt.AddMinutes(5); var result = medEntitites.tj_xhqd .Where(m => m.zdjh == msn && m.sjsj >= before && m.sjsj <= after).Select(m => new { MSN = m.zdjh, DateTime = m.sjsj, Signal_Strength = m.xhqd }).Distinct(); return Request.CreateResponse

I have a link on my page on click of which I am trying to generate a PDF document and then show the "Open - Save" prompt on the browser. My HTML (reactjs component) has the below code where onclick calls the _getMyDocument function which then calls a Webapi method. <div className="row"> <a href="#" onClick={this._getMyDocument.bind(this)}>Test Link</a> </div> _getMyDocument(e) { GetMyDocument(this.props.mydata).then(()=> { }).catch(error=> { }); My Controller has the below code [HttpPost] [Route("Generate/Report")] public IHttpActionResult GetMyReport(MyData myData) { byte[] myDoc =

I've got a couple of services which already receive a json string (not an object) that must be returned to the client. Currently, I'm creating the HttpResponseMessage explicitly and setting its Content property to the json string which the service receives: var response = Request.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.OK); response.Content = new StringContent(jsonUtilizadores, Encoding.UTF8, "application/json"); return response; Now, is there a better way of doing this with the new IHttpActionResult ? Using the Content or Ok method ends up wrapping the json string with quotes, which is not what I want.

How do I annotate my ASP.NET WebAPI actions so that the swagger metadata includes the content-types that my resources support? Specifically, I want the documentation to show that one of my resources can return the 'original' application/json and application/xml but also now returns a new format, application/vnd.blah+json or +xml . What you need to do is this; Swagger spec: you need to add your response-type to the list of response-types for that operation "produces": [ "application/json", "text/json" ], This can be done with an OperationFilter Pseudo Code incoming!!! public class

I have created a web api 2 and I'm trying to do a cross domain request to it but I'm getting the following error: OPTIONS http://www.example.com/api/save 405 (Method Not Allowed) I have had a look around and most resolutions for this problem are saying that I need to install CORs from NuGet and enable it so I have installed the package and marked my controller with [EnableCors("*", "*", "*")] But this still hasn't resolved the problem. My ApiController only has the following Save method in: [ResponseType(typeof(int))] public IHttpActionResult Save(Student student) { if (ModelState.IsValid) {

I've got a MVC WebApi owin (soft hosted) project, that uses Unity for resolving controller dependencies which look like this public class PacientaiController : ODataController { private readonly IEntityRepo<Ent.Pacientas> repo; public PacientaiController(IEntityRepo<Ent.Pacientas> repo) { this.repo = repo; } the problem I'm trying to solve - is how do I pass 'OwinContex' into a Repo. public class PacientasEntityRepo:IEntityRepo<Pacientas>,IDisposable { public PacientasEntityRepo(IOwinContext ctx) { ......... If I try to register it like this in the Startup.cs Container.RegisterType

I have the following controller: public class ValuesController : ApiController { // POST api/values public IHttpActionResult Post(string filterName) { return new JsonResult<string>(filterName, new JsonSerializerSettings(), Encoding.UTF8, this); } } WebApi config config.Routes.MapHttpRoute( name: "DefaultApi", routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{id}", defaults: new { id = RouteParameter.Optional }); I use this js code to call the api $.ajax( { url: "/api/values/", type: "POST", dataType: 'json', data: { filterName: "Dirty Deeds" }, success: function (result) { console.log(result); }, error:
