This project is intended to explore the usage of .NET Core as a Web API.

To run it, clone the the project and load the solution in Visual Studio, and run locally on IIS express.

• The API Endpoint is /api/Rates/?StartDate=&EndDate=
• Start and end dates are accepted in the following iso format: 2015-07-01T12:00:00Z
• A "Rates" value in cents is returned

There are two API EndPoints exposed. Note that statistics are saved in memory only, so if the application restarts, logged times will be lost. A future improvement could be to log these times into a database.

Returns a list of all API calls and associated average times.

Returns the API call requested (by key) and its average time.

• The data source is currently a local json file, whose path is configured in the appsettings.json of the Api project.
• This could in the future be updated to full from SQL via EF, or other more robust data sources.
• The data source is expected to correctly follow the format of the provided sample file.

The project uses .NET Core Dependency Injection

This contains only the endpoints from which the data is accessed

The key class here is the RatesRepository. It basically uses the JsonFileRetrievalService and JsonFileParserService to create a set of models that are then used to perform the request. Note that currently, all of these are Request-scoped.
