Provides a web API for managing recipes. Used as the backend for Recipe Manager.

• .NET 6.0
• ASP.NET Core
• Mediatr
• Entity Framework Core
• SQL Server
• OpenID Connect token authentication

Follow the instructions below to get started with the project in a local development environment.

• .NET 6.0
• SQL Server
• Docker (if running a development instance with Docker)

dotnet build

dotnet run --project RecipeManager.Host

Note you'll need to configure the settings in the host appsettings.Development.json file as appropriate.

A Docker compose file is provided that can be used to build a development instance of the server, including the web API and a SQL Server instance.

docker-compose build

# Start the web service and a SQL server instance
docker-compose up

A .env file will need to be created with the following variables defined to be used in the container building process:

• SQL_PASSWORD - the password use for the SQL Server sa user
• CONNECTION_STRING - the connection string provided to the service (e.g. User ID=sa;Password=...;Initial Catalog=RecipeManager;Server=...)

Once the server is running, the database can be created with the create-dev-db.sh script:

# Creates the database and associated tables
docker exec -i ${container-name} bash < create-dev-db.sh
