在 ASP.NET Core 中管理动态 Url

Question

I am consuming third party APIs in which I fetch base URL from my configuration file (appsettings.json). While creating dynamic endpoints I concatenate URL as follows: $"{BaseUrl}/api/v1/users/{id}/apps"

Now problem is I got feedbacks on this as hardcoding and it is also hard to maintain for future modifications.

Is there any better approach for managing third party APIs endpoint or URLs?

Answer 1

Use static class to manage URLs.

static class ApiRoutes {
private const string Base = "Api"

  Private static Class ControllerOne {
  public static string Get = Base +"\ControllerOne\{id}"
  public static string Post = Base +"\ControllerOne\{id}"
  }

Than In your Controller, You can do something like that:

[httpGet (ApiRoutes.ControllerOne.Get)]
Get (string something) {
  /*your code*/
}

[httpPost(ApiRoutes.ControllerOne.Post)]
Post (string something) {
  /*Your code*/
}

Then, if you will have the desire to change the URL in the future, it will be much easier!
