如何在HAL中获取链接资源的关联名称

Question

我正在创建用于项目任务的API。 它具有一个TasksController，如下所示。 我正在使用WebApi.Hal生成超媒体，该服务还支持hal+json和hal+xml media types 。

以下是我目前对GET请求http：// localhost：51910 / api / tasks / 1的响应。 在响应中，有一个优先级链接列表–但是它们在响应中没有关联的名称（以在UI中显示-如Low ， Medium ， High等）。

使用WebApi.HAL来获得优先级名称的最佳HAL方法是什么？

注意：优先级列表可以在将来得到增强。

优先

public class Priority
{
    public int PriorityID { get; set; }
    public string PriorityName { get; set; }
    public string Revision { get; set; }
    public DateTime ApprovalDate { get; set; }
}

控制者

public class TasksController : ApiController
    {
        // GET api/values/5
         [HttpGet]
        public TaskRepresentation Get(int id)
        {

            Task selectedTask = TasksHelper.GetTask(id);
            TaskRepresentation taskRepresentation = new TaskRepresentation(selectedTask);
            return taskRepresentation;
        }

        //PUT For Setting Priority
        [HttpPut]
        [Route("api/tasks/{taskID}/priorities/{priorityID}")]
        public TaskRepresentation PutSetPriority(int taskID, int priorityID)
        {
            Task selectedTask = TasksHelper.GetTask(taskID);

            Priority selectedPriority = null;
            List<Priority> allPriorities = TasksPrioritiesHelper.GetAllPriorities();
            foreach (Priority p in allPriorities)
            {
                if (p.PriorityID == priorityID)
                {
                    selectedPriority = p;
                }
            }

            //Update Task
            if (selectedPriority != null)
            {
                selectedTask.CurrentPriority = selectedPriority.PriorityName;
            }
            else
            {

                throw new Exception("Not available");
            }


            TaskRepresentation taskRepresentation = new TaskRepresentation(selectedTask);
            return taskRepresentation;
        }

        [HttpGet]
        [Route("api/tasks/{taskID}/priorities/{priorityID}")]
        public Priority Get(int taskID, int priorityID)
        {
            Priority selectedPriority = null;
            List<Priority> allPriorities = TasksPrioritiesHelper.GetAllPriorities();
            foreach (Priority p in allPriorities)
            {
                if (p.PriorityID == priorityID)
                {
                    selectedPriority = p;
                }
            }

            return selectedPriority;
        }

    }

HAL生成相关的类

public static class LinkTemplates
    {

        public static class TaskLinks
        {
            public static Link TaskEntry { get { return new Link("self", "~/api/tasks/{taskID}"); } }
            public static Link PriorityLink { get { return new Link("priorities", "~/api/tasks/{taskID}/priorities/{priorityID}"); } }
        }
    }

public class TaskRepresentation : Representation
    {
        Task theTask;

        public int TaskID{get{return theTask.TaskID;}}
        public string TaskName{get{return theTask.Name;}}
        public string CurrentPriority{get{return theTask.CurrentPriority;}}
        public string Category{get{return theTask.Category;}}

        public TaskRepresentation(Task t)
        {
            theTask = t;
        }


        public override string Rel
        {
            get { return LinkTemplates.TaskLinks.TaskEntry.Rel; }
            set { }
        }

        public override string Href
        {
            get { return LinkTemplates.TaskLinks.TaskEntry.CreateLink(new { taskID = theTask.TaskID }).Href; }
            set { }
        }


        protected override void CreateHypermedia()
        {
            foreach (Priority p in theTask.PossiblePriorities)
            {
                Links.Add(LinkTemplates.TaskLinks.PriorityLink.CreateLink(new { taskID = theTask.TaskID, priorityID = p.PriorityID }));
            }
        }
    }

Answer 1

HAL规范中提到了title -这将满足要求。

以下是更新的响应。

{
  "TaskID": 1,
  "TaskName": "Task1",
  "CurrentPriority": "Medium",
  "Category": "IT",
  "_links": {
    "self": {
      "href": "/api/tasks/1"
    },
    "priorities": [
      {
        "href": "/api/tasks/1/priorities/101",
        "title": "Low"
      },
      {
        "href": "/api/tasks/1/priorities/103",
        "title": "High"
      },
      {
        "href": "/api/tasks/1/priorities/104",
        "title": "Critical"
      }
    ]
  }
}

WebAPI.HAL更改

protected override void CreateHypermedia()
        {
            foreach (Priority p in theTask.PossiblePriorities)
            {
                Link lnk = LinkTemplates.TaskLinks.PriorityLink.CreateLink(new { taskID = theTask.TaskID, priorityID = p.PriorityID });
                lnk.Title = p.PriorityName;
                Links.Add(lnk);
            }
        }
