  • ASP.NET Web API and HttpClient Available on NuGet
    Monday, Feb 20 — If you don’t need the full ASP.NET MVC 4 installer with project and item templates for Visual Studio 2010 then you can download the various ASP.NET Web API packages directly from NuGet (see list of packages below). If you are new to NuGet then it is a Visual Studio extension that makes it easy to add, remove, and update libraries and tools in Visual Studio projects that use the .NET Framework (check out the NuGet overview ). NuGet Packages Here are the relevant NuGet packages depending on what you want to build: Web API hosted in ASP.NET: AspNetWebApi Self-hosted Web API: AspNetWebApi.Selfhost HttpClient including XML and JSON formatters: System.Net.Http.Formatting JsonValue for navigating and manipulating JSON: System.Json Additional Information...(read more)
  • ASP.NET MVC 4 Beta
    Sunday, Feb 19 — A few days ago we released the ASP.NET MVC 4 Beta .  This is a significant release that brings with it a bunch of great new features and capabilities.  The ASP.NET MVC 4 Beta release works with VS 2010 and .NET 4.0, and is side-by-side compatible with prior releases of ASP.NET MVC (meaning you can safely install it and not worry about it impacting your existing apps built with earlier releases).  It supports a “go-live” license that allows you to build and deploy production apps with it.  Click here to download and install it today. The ASP.NET MVC 4 Beta will also be built-into the upcoming VS11 / .NET 4.5 beta that is coming out shortly.  This week’s beta doesn’t work with the previous VS11 developer preview that shipped...(read more)
  • Using MongoDB with ASP.NET Web API
    Sunday, Feb 19 — MongoDB is a popular NoSQL database that makes it a great backend for Web APIs which lend themselves towards a document store rather than a relational store . In this blog we show how you can use MongoDB with ASP.NET Web API to build an ApiController with support for HTTP GET, PUT, POST, and DELETE. Our sample controller is a simple contact manager Web API which builds on many of the same concepts as in the tutorial “ Creating a Web API that Supports CRUD Operations ” so I would recommend that you skim that for background. In particular, the URI patterns are very similar to that of the tutorial: Action HTTP Method Relative URI Get a list of all contacts GET /api/contacts Get a filtered list of all contacts GET /api/contacts?$top=2 Get a contacts...(read more)
  • How to create a Web Deploy package when publishing a ClickOnce project
    Saturday, Feb 18 — The other day I saw a question on StackOverflow (link in resources below) asking How you can create a Web Deploy (AKA MSDeploy) package when publishing a ClickOnce project. The easiest way to do this is to use the Web Deploy command line utility, msdeploy.exe. With the command line you can easily create an MSDeploy package from a folder with a command like the following: %msdeploy% -verb:sync -source:contentPath="C:\Temp\_NET\WebPackageWithClickOnce\WebPackageWithClickOnce\bin\Debug\app.publish" -dest:package="C:\Temp\_NET\WebPackageWithClickOnce\WebPackageWithClickOnce\bin\Debug\co-pkg.zip"   Here you can see that I’m using the sync verb, along with a contentPath provider ( which points to a folder ) as the source and...(read more)
  • Using JSON.NET with ASP.NET Web API
    Friday, Feb 17 — Json.Net is a popular framework for working with JSON. In particular, it has a bunch of features that are not supported by the DataContractJsonSerializer such as being much more flexible in what kind of types it can serialize and exactly how they should be serialized. The ASP.NET Web API Beta supports an open-ended set of formatters that can read and write data to and from any media type you want to support. For example, if you want to support the vCard format which has the media type text/vcard (previously it was text/directory) media type then you can write a formatter for vCard and register it for the media type (or types) in question. The complete sample is posted on Code Gallery . Note : If you are completely new to ASP.NET Web API then...(read more)
