AppDataRest is a library for retrieves a file (or even a list of files in a directory) contained the Application Data directory through a URL.
I wanted to provide files to my website and to easily update mettres (without installing or spend a third party tool). With this library, I create a JSON file (or other type) and I moves in the Application Data directory. From there, I can call my file from a URL.
The first step is add the line:
AppDataRestRoutage.Register(config, "TO_REPLACE");
Congratulation! You haves set up the library in your ASP.NET project.
Of course! For configure the library, you must update your "Web.config" file in adding the next section:
<configuration> <configSections> <sectionGroup name="appDataRestGroup"> <section name="appDataRest" type="AppDataRest.Configurations.AppDataRestConfigurationSection" allowLocation="true" allowDefinition="Everywhere" /> </sectionGroup> </configSections> </configuration> <appDataRestGroup> <appDataRest> <!-- Configuration here. --> </appDataRest> </appDataRestGroup>
In the "appDataRest" tag, you can configure the library.
