Just playing with a .Net Core 2.2 Web Api

These instructions will get you a copy of the solution up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.

• .NET Core SDK 2.2
• Docker

In a terminal window in the root of the solution;

• Restore dependencies by using the dotnet restore command.

• Build the solution by using the dotnet build command.

• To run all tests, including integration tests;

  1. Provision the LocalStack and PostgreSQL resources by using the docker-compose up -d command.
  2. Run all tests by using the dotnet test command.

• To run the Web API project locally;

  1. Provision the LocalStack and PostgreSQL resources by using the docker-compose up -d command.
  2. Run the application by using the dotnet run --project WebApi/WebApi.csproj command.

Running the Web API project locally will create a local test S3 Bucket, PostgreSQL database and table; before making the HTTP endpoints available.

On application close (ctrl + c from the terminal window), the test database will be dropped and the S3 bucket, destroyed.

This project uses Swagger to document the API - see https://localhost:{port}/swagger/ when running the project.

• .Net Core Web API - Framework
• Docker - Infrastructure

Huge hat tip to Matt and Tim for making my life super easy with Badger.Data, and for providing clean open-sourced code which inspired me to write some of my own.
