Blazor - Enable API Endpoints
Just a quick post showing how to enable API controllers in a Blazor server application. I noticed, for performance, the default templates I used does not automatically wire up API controllers that are in your application. To enable API controllers you just need to add to the endpoints mapping, endpoints.MapControllers();.
Example Source Code
Startup.cs for project
public class Startup
{
// ... Standard Startup Methods
public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app)
{
// ... Standard Startup.Configure Method
app.UseEndpoints(endpoints =>
{
endpoints.MapBlazorHub();
// Here is the mapping of Controllers, which includes our API Controller
endpoints.MapControllers();
endpoints.MapFallbackToPage("/_Host");
});
}
}
ValuesApiController.cs
using System.Collections.Generic;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc;
[Route("api/values")]
[ApiController]
public class ValuesApiController : ControllerBase
{
[HttpGet]
[Route("")]
public IActionResult Values()
{
return Ok(
new ValuesResult
{
Values = new List<string>
{
"value1",
"value2",
"value3",
"value4",
}
}
);
}
}
public class ValuesResult
{
public IList<string> Values { get; set; }
}
