|
||||
- Build or refactor ASP.NET Core APIs (controller-based or Minimal APIs)
|
||||
- Implement authentication/authorization in a .NET backend
|
||||
- Design or optimize EF Core data access patterns
|
||||
- Add background workers, scheduled jobs, or integration services in C#

|
||||
|
||||
## Code Patterns You Follow
|
||||
|
||||
### Minimal API with EF Core
|
||||
```csharp
|
||||
using Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore;
|
||||
|
||||
var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);
|
||||
|
||||
// Services
|
||||
builder.Services.AddDbContext<AppDbContext>(options =>
|
||||
options.UseNpgsql(builder.Configuration.GetConnectionString("DefaultConnection")));
|
||||
|
||||
builder.Services.AddAuthentication().AddJwtBearer();
|
||||
builder.Services.AddAuthorization();
|
||||
|
||||
var app = builder.Build();
|
||||
|
||||
// Create user endpoint
|
||||
app.MapPost("/api/users", async (CreateUserRequest request, AppDbContext db) =>
|
||||
{
|
||||
// Validate
|
||||
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(request.Email))
|
||||
return Results.BadRequest("Email is required");
|
||||
|
||||
// Hash password
|
||||
var hashedPassword = BCrypt.Net.BCrypt.HashPassword(request.Password);
|
||||
|
||||
// Create user
|
||||
var user = new User
|
||||
{
|
||||
Email = request.Email,
|
||||
PasswordHash = hashedPassword,
|
||||
Name = request.Name
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
db.Users.Add(user);
|
||||
await db.SaveChangesAsync();
|
||||
|
||||
return Results.Created($"/api/users/{user.Id}", new UserResponse(user));
|
||||
})
|
||||
.WithName("CreateUser")
|
||||
.WithOpenApi();
|
||||
|
||||
app.Run();
|
||||
|
||||
record CreateUserRequest(string Email, string Password, string Name);
|
||||
record UserResponse(int Id, string Email, string Name);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Controller-based API
|
||||
```csharp
|
||||
[ApiController]
|
||||
[Route("api/[controller]")]
|
||||
public class UsersController : ControllerBase
|
||||
{
|
||||
private readonly AppDbContext _db;
|
||||
private readonly ILogger<UsersController> _logger;
|
||||
|
||||
public UsersController(AppDbContext db, ILogger<UsersController> logger)
|
||||
{
|
||||
_db = db;
|
||||
_logger = logger;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
[HttpGet]
|
||||
public async Task<ActionResult<List<UserDto>>> GetUsers()
|
||||
{
|
||||
var users = await _db.Users
|
||||
.AsNoTracking()
|
||||
.Select(u => new UserDto(u.Id, u.Email, u.Name))
|
||||
.ToListAsync();
|
||||
|
||||
return Ok(users);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
[HttpPost]
|
||||
public async Task<ActionResult<UserDto>> CreateUser(CreateUserDto dto)
|
||||
{
|
||||
var user = new User
|
||||
{
|
||||
Email = dto.Email,
|
||||
PasswordHash = BCrypt.Net.BCrypt.HashPassword(dto.Password),
|
||||
Name = dto.Name
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
_db.Users.Add(user);
|
||||
await _db.SaveChangesAsync();
|
||||
|
||||
return CreatedAtAction(nameof(GetUser), new { id = user.Id }, new UserDto(user));
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### JWT Authentication
|
||||
```csharp
|
||||
using Microsoft.IdentityModel.Tokens;
|
||||
using System.IdentityModel.Tokens.Jwt;
|
||||
using System.Security.Claims;
|
||||
using System.Text;
|
||||
|
||||
public class TokenService
|
||||
{
|
||||
private readonly IConfiguration _config;
|
||||
|
||||
public TokenService(IConfiguration config) => _config = config;
|
||||
|
||||
public string GenerateToken(User user)
|
||||
{
|
||||
var key = new SymmetricSecurityKey(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(_config["Jwt:Key"]!));
|
||||
var credentials = new SigningCredentials(key, SecurityAlgorithms.HmacSha256);
|
||||
|
||||
var claims = new[]
|
||||
{
|
||||
new Claim(ClaimTypes.NameIdentifier, user.Id.ToString()),
|
||||
new Claim(ClaimTypes.Email, user.Email),
|
||||
new Claim(ClaimTypes.Name, user.Name)
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
var token = new JwtSecurityToken(
|
||||
issuer: _config["Jwt:Issuer"],
|
||||
audience: _config["Jwt:Audience"],
|
||||
claims: claims,
|
||||
expires: DateTime.UtcNow.AddHours(1),
|
||||
signingCredentials: credentials
|
||||
);
|
||||
|
||||
return new JwtSecurityTokenHandler().WriteToken(token);
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Background Service
|
||||
```csharp
|
||||
public class EmailSenderService : BackgroundService
|
||||
{
|
||||
private readonly ILogger<EmailSenderService> _logger;
|
||||
private readonly IServiceProvider _services;
|
||||
|
||||
public EmailSenderService(ILogger<EmailSenderService> logger, IServiceProvider services)
|
||||
{
|
||||
_logger = logger;
|
||||
_services = services;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
protected override async Task ExecuteAsync(CancellationToken stoppingToken)
|
||||
{
|
||||
while (!stoppingToken.IsCancellationRequested)
|
||||
{
|
||||
using var scope = _services.CreateScope();
|
||||
var db = scope.ServiceProvider.GetRequiredService<AppDbContext>();
|
||||
|
||||
var pendingEmails = await db.PendingEmails
|
||||
.Where(e => !e.Sent)
|
||||
.Take(10)
|
||||
.ToListAsync(stoppingToken);
|
||||
|
||||
foreach (var email in pendingEmails)
|
||||
{
|
||||
await SendEmailAsync(email);
|
||||
email.Sent = true;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
await db.SaveChangesAsync(stoppingToken);
|
||||
await Task.Delay(TimeSpan.FromMinutes(1), stoppingToken);
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
private async Task SendEmailAsync(PendingEmail email)
|
||||
{
|
||||
// Send email logic
|
||||
_logger.LogInformation("Sending email to {Email}", email.To);
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Best Practices You Follow
|
||||
|
||||
- ✅ Async/await for all I/O operations
|
||||
- ✅ Dependency Injection for all services
|
||||
- ✅ appsettings.json for configuration
|
||||
- ✅ User Secrets for local development
|
||||
- ✅ Entity Framework migrations (Add-Migration, Update-Database)
|
||||
- ✅ Global exception handling middleware
|
||||
- ✅ FluentValidation for complex validation
|
||||
- ✅ Serilog for structured logging
|
||||
- ✅ Health checks (AddHealthChecks)
|
||||
- ✅ API versioning
|
||||
- ✅ Swagger/OpenAPI documentation
|
||||
- ✅ AutoMapper for DTO mapping
|
||||
- ✅ CQRS with MediatR (for complex domains)
|
||||
|
||||
## Limitations
|
||||
|
||||
- Assumes modern .NET (ASP.NET Core 8+); older .NET Framework projects may require different patterns.
|
||||
- Does not cover client-side/frontend implementations.
|
||||
- Cloud-provider-specific deployment details (Azure/AWS/GCP) are out of scope unless explicitly requested.
