RESTful Web Services with ASP.NET MVC

Question

您是否认为ASP.NET MVC能够开发RESTful Web服务以及您将使用哪种方法？

Answer 1

I have written a whole series of posts on developing a RESTful Web Service using ASP.Net MVC ... well at least I'm 80% of the way through after 8 posts. Have a look at:

http://shouldersofgiants.co.uk/blog/

The web service I'm developing supports multiple representations (XHTML / JSON / XML / HELP) handles as many possible errors as I could find and supports POST overloading.

Answer 3

Generally, I would say yes it is possible for ASP.Net MVC to develop RESTful web services. However, many times the consumers of the data are unique enough where this may not be the best approach.

For larger application services or more complex services, I would recommend developing your MVC Controllers in a RESTful manner to be consumed by the views as MVC is designed. I would then think about ADO.Net Data Services or WCF for large scale data services.

Answer 4

从MVC 4开始，Web API正式支持构建RESTful Web服务。

Answer 5

Peter,

In response to calebjenkins, ADO.Net data services is really nice if you want to create a restful version of your database.

If you want more control over your restful webservice then i would use WCF web services. Or if your datastore isn't a database, then ADO.NET data service isn't really the right solution. Here is a really nice article which got me started.

Answer 6

I would seriously look at ADO.NET Dataservices. (formaly code named Astoria) There's some really nice tooling for Restful services in there!
