Key benefits

  • Learn to design RESTful APIs from scratch
  • Learn to create a Minimal Web API using .NET Core and get ahead in the career curve
  • Apply API concepts to scale and enhance distributed computing in your real-world projects

Description

Minimal APIs are architected to create HTTP APIs with minimal dependencies. They are ideal for microservices and apps that want to include only the minimum files, features, and dependencies in ASP.NET Core. This introductory-level course teaches you how to create RESTful APIs and apply them in the real world. We will start with understanding what minimal APIs are, why they are needed, and when to use them followed by understanding the differences and similarities between Minimal and MVC APIs. We will focus on implementing collection APIs, Entity Framework, and Dependency Injection. We will look at the return types like returning results in Minimal API asynchronously. We will cover important concepts like Data Transfer Objects (DTO), AutoMapper, handling exceptions, and implement individual item endpoints such as GET, PUT, and DELETE. This course will provide significant knowledge of implementing Minimal API for your next RESTful API-related project. At the end of this course, you will know how to create a Minimal Web API using .NET Core. The course teaches you to use the building concepts easily by following a step-by-step approach, making you confident to create a new Minimal API project instantly. All the resources for this course are available at: https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Hands-on-.NET-Minimal-API-for-Web-Developers

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

What is Early Access? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published. As a member of Packt, you'll also be eligible for our exclusive offers, including a free course every day, and discounts on new and popular titles.
