🚀 Exciting Journey in .NET Development! 🎮
📚 I recently added the miniapis.extension package from the NuGet Gallery to my web API project. This package provides convenient input validation for my application.
🔧 To start, I created a new web API project using the dotnet new web command. With the help of dotnet watch run, I can now hot reload the server and quickly see the changes by pressing ctrl + r.
🔍 To organize my code, I added an endpoints folder and created classes for each endpoint. This allowed me to refactor my program.cs file and use the app.<endpoint_class_method>() syntax for cleaner code.
📦 I also created a repositories folder to store my game list, making it read-only. This separation of concerns improved the maintainability of my project.
🔧 I implemented CRUD operations by defining new methods and made the game list private instead of static. This enhanced the encapsulation of my code.
🌟 Understanding service lifetimes, I introduced an interface called IGamesRepository and moved it to a separate file. Now, I pass the IGamesRepository type as an argument in my endpoints instead of creating an instance at the top.
🔌 Finally, I registered my instance in the program.cs file to ensure proper dependency injection.
