ASP.NET MVC 4 (十二) Web API
Web API属于ASP.NET核心平台的一部分,它利用MVC框架的底层功能方便我们快速的开发部署WEB服务。我们可以在常规MVC应用通过添加API控制器来创建web api服务,普通MVC应用程序控制器根据用户请求的action方法返回ActionResult,而web api服务返回的则是json封装的模型数据。
在开始下面的内容前先给出相关类与接口的代码:
public interface IReservationRepository { IEnumerable<Reservation> GetAll(); Reservation Get(int id); Reservation Add(Reservation item); void Remove(int id); bool Update(Reservation item); }public class Reservation { public int ReservationId { get; set; } public string ClientName { get; set; } public string Location { get; set; } }public class ReservationRepository : IReservationRepository { private List<Reservation> data = http://www.mamicode.com/new List{"Adam", Location = "London"}, new Reservation {ReservationId = 2, ClientName = "Steve", Location = "New York"}, new Reservation {ReservationId = 3, ClientName = "Jacqui", Location = "Paris"}, }; private static ReservationRepository repo = new ReservationRepository(); public static IReservationRepository getRepository() { return repo; } public IEnumerable<Reservation> GetAll() { return data; } public Reservation Get(int id) { var matches = data.Where(r => r.ReservationId == id); return matches.Count() > 0 ? matches.First() : null; } public Reservation Add(Reservation item) { item.ReservationId = data.Count + 1; data.Add(item); return item; } public void Remove(int id) { Reservation item = Get(id); if (item != null) { data.Remove(item); } } public bool Update(Reservation item) { Reservation storedItem = Get(item.ReservationId); if (storedItem != null) { storedItem.ClientName = item.ClientName; storedItem.Location = item.Location; return true; } else { return false; } } }
创建API控制器
在已有的MVC WEB应用中添加API控制器来创建WEB服务,VS的添加控制器对话框中可以选择创建API控制器,我们可以选择“Empty API controller”创建不包含任何方法的空API控制器,手工添加对应各个WEB服务操作的方法,一个完整的API控制类类似:
using System.Collections.Generic;using System.Web.Http;using WebServices.Models;namespace WebServices.Controllers { public class ReservationController : ApiController { IReservationRepository repo = ReservationRepository.getRepository(); public IEnumerable<Reservation> GetAllReservations() { return repo.GetAll(); } public Reservation GetReservation(int id) { return repo.Get(id); } public Reservation PostReservation(Reservation item) { return repo.Add(item); } public bool PutReservation(Reservation item) { return repo.Update(item); } public void DeleteReservation(int id) { repo.Remove(id); } }}
当我们从浏览器访问 /api/reservation时得到的GetAllReservations方法封装的JSON数据,在IE10中得到的结果类似:
[{"ReservationId":1,"ClientName":"Adam","Location":"London"}, {"ReservationId":2,"ClientName":"Steve","Location":"New York"}, {"ReservationId":3,"ClientName":"Jacqui","Location":"Paris"}]
如果是Chrome或者Firefox结果则是XML:
<ArrayOfReservation> <Reservation> <ClientName>Adam</ClientName> <Location>London</Location> <ReservationId>1</ReservationId> </Reservation> <Reservation> <ClientName>Steve</ClientName> <Location>New York</Location> <ReservationId>2</ReservationId> </Reservation> <Reservation> <ClientName>Jacqui</ClientName> <Location>Paris</Location> <ReservationId>3</ReservationId> </Reservation> </ArrayOfReservation>
这种区别源于浏览器提交的Accept头,IE10发送的Accept头类似:
... Accept: text/html, application/xhtml+xml, */* ...
表示IE10优先接受 text/html,接下来是application/xhtml+xml,如果前两者不可行, */*表示接受任何格式。Web API支持XML和JSON两种格式,但是优先使用JSON,所以IE10得到的*/*选择的JSON格式。Chrome发送的Accept头类似:
... Accept:text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8 ...
Chrome优先接受application/xml,所以WEB API使用XML格式发送数据。
理解API控制器如何作用
在IE10中如果访问/api/reservation/3,得到的JSON数据类似:
{"ReservationId":3,"ClientName":"Jacqui","Location":"Paris"}
这里得到的ReservationIdvalue=http://www.mamicode.com/3的对象数据,这和MVC的路径映射很相似,实际上确实也是这样,API有自己的的路径映射,定义在 WebApiConfig.cs文件中:
using System.Web.Http;namespace WebServices { public static class WebApiConfig { public static void Register(HttpConfiguration config) { config.Routes.MapHttpRoute( name: "DefaultApi", routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{id}", defaults: new { id = RouteParameter.Optional } ); } }}
这里的路径映射非常类似于MVC控制器的路径映射,但是所用的路径映射表和配置类都来自于System.Web.Http命名空间,Microsoft在这个命名空间复制了MVC的对应的类,这样做使得我们可以脱离MVC单独使用WEB API。这里注册的API路径映射最后在global.asax中通过WebApiConfig.Register(GlobalConfiguration.Configuration)注册到全局配置文件中。
和MVC控制器通过URL选择action方法不同,API控制器根据HTTP请求方法的不同来选择API控制器方法。API控制器方法的命名规则一般是HTTP方法作为前缀加上控制器的名称,比如GetReservation(这只是常规做法,DoGetReservation、ThisIsTheGetAction都是允许的),我们从浏览器访问/api/reservation所用的HTTP方法为GET,API控制器会查找所有包含GET的所有控制器方法,GetReservation和GetAllReservations都在考虑之类,但是具体选择哪个还参考了所带的参数,访问/api/reservation没有任何参数,因此API控制器选择了GetAllReservations,访问/api/reservation/3自然就选择了GetReservation。由此我们也知道PostReservation、PutReservation、DeleteReservation分别对应HTTP的Post、Put、Delete三种方法(WEB API的Representation State Transfer - REST)。
PutReservation方法命名多少有点不自然,我们更习惯称呼它为UpdateReservation,和MVC一样,System.Web.Http也提供一些特性可以应用于控制器方法:
public class ReservationController : ApiController { IReservationRepository repo = ReservationRepository.getRepository(); public IEnumerable<Reservation> GetAllReservations() { return repo.GetAll(); } public Reservation GetReservation(int id) { return repo.Get(id); } [HttpPost] public Reservation CreateReservation(Reservation item) { return repo.Add(item); } [HttpPut] public bool UpdateReservation(Reservation item) { return repo.Update(item); } public void DeleteReservation(int id) { repo.Remove(id); } }
这里通过HttpPost特性指定CreateReservation对应HTTP的POST请求,HttpPut指定UpdateReservation对应HTTP的PUT请求,MVC也有类似的特性,但是注意它们虽然同名但是定义在System.Web.Http命名空间。
使用WEB API
如同常规WEB服务,我们可以有多种方式来调用WEB API,比如windows form程序、其他ASP.NET应用程序,这里给出如何在当前MVC应用中利用javascript脚本来使用web api。
视图文件index.cshtml:
@{ ViewBag.Title = "Index";}@section scripts { <script src="http://www.mamicode.com/~/Scripts/jquery.unobtrusive-ajax.js"></script> <script src="http://www.mamicode.com/~/Scripts/Home/Index.js"></script>}<div id="summaryDisplay" class="display"> <h4>Reservations</h4> <table> <thead> <tr> <th class="selectCol"></th> <th class="nameCol">Name</th> <th class="locationCol">Location</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody id="tableBody"> <tr><td colspan="3">The data is loading</td></tr> </tbody> </table> <div id="buttonContainer"> <button id="refresh">Refresh</button> <button id="add">Add</button> <button id="edit">Edit</button> <button id="delete">Delete</button> </div></div><div id="addDisplay" class="display"> <h4>Add New Reservation</h4> @{ AjaxOptions addAjaxOpts = new AjaxOptions { OnSuccess = "getData", Url = "/api/reservation" }; } @using (Ajax.BeginForm(addAjaxOpts)) { @Html.Hidden("ReservationId", 0) <p><label>Name:</label>@Html.Editor("ClientName")</p> <p><label>Location:</label>@Html.Editor("Location")</p> <button type="submit">Submit</button> }</div><div id="editDisplay" class="display"> <h4>Edit Reservation</h4> <form id="editForm"> <input id="editReservationId" type="hidden" name="ReservationId"/> <p><label>Name:</label><input id="editClientName" name="ClientName" /></p> <p><label>Location:</label><input id="editLocation" name="Location" /></p> </form> <button id="submitEdit" type="submit">Save</button></div>
Index.js:
function selectView(view) { $(‘.display‘).not(‘#‘ + view + "Display").hide(); $(‘#‘ + view + "Display").show();}function getData() { $.ajax({ type: "GET", url: "/api/reservation", success: function (data) { $(‘#tableBody‘).empty(); for (var i = 0; i < data.length; i++) { $(‘#tableBody‘).append(‘<tr><td><input id="id" name="id" type="radio"‘ + ‘value="http://www.mamicode.com/‘ + data[i].ReservationId + ‘" /></td>‘ + ‘<td>‘ + data[i].ClientName + ‘</td>‘ + ‘<td>‘ + data[i].Location + ‘</td></tr>‘); } $(‘input:radio‘)[0].checked = "checked"; selectView("summary"); } });}$(document).ready(function () { selectView("summary"); getData(); $("button").click(function (e) { var selectedRadio = $(‘input:radio:checked‘) switch (e.target.id) { case "refresh": getData(); break; case "delete": $.ajax({ type: "DELETE", url: "/api/reservation/" + selectedRadio.attr(‘value‘), success: function (data) { selectedRadio.closest(‘tr‘).remove(); } }); break; case "add": selectView("add"); break; case "edit": $.ajax({ type: "GET", url: "/api/reservation/" + selectedRadio.attr(‘value‘), success: function (data) { $(‘#editReservationId‘).val(data.ReservationId); $(‘#editClientName‘).val(data.ClientName); $(‘#editLocation‘).val(data.Location); selectView("edit"); } }); break; case "submitEdit": $.ajax({ type: "PUT", url: "/api/reservation/" + selectedRadio.attr(‘value‘), data: $(‘#editForm‘).serialize(), success: function (result) { if (result) { var cells = selectedRadio.closest(‘tr‘).children(); cells[1].innerText = $(‘#editClientName‘).val(); cells[2].innerText = $(‘#editLocation‘).val(); selectView("summary"); } } }); break; } });});
第一次访问index视图HTML界面装载完成后调用JS函数selectView("summary"),它显示ID=summaryDisplay的DIV块,隐藏其他的addDisplay、editDisplay块,然后通过调用JS函数getData(),getData使用GET方法向WEB API请求数据,返回的数据每个项目一行在表格中。summaryDisplay底部有Refresh、Add、Edit、Delete四个按钮,这些按钮的点击在“$("button").click(function (e)”处理;点击Refresh时调用getdata刷新数据;点击add时隐藏其他DIV块,显示addDisplay DIV块,这个DIV块创建一个AJAX表单,POST方法提交到API控制器的CreateReservation;EDIT按钮根据当前的选项从/api/reservation/{id} GET相应的对象后显示editDisplay DIV块,同时隐藏其他DIV块;点击editDisplay DIV块中的submitEdit按钮,JS使用PUT方法请求/api/reservation/{id}调用API控制器的UpdateReservation方法修改数据,完成后再次显示summaryDisplay DIV块,隐藏其他DIV块;点击delete按钮则是使用DELETE方法请求/api/reservation/{id}调用控制器方法DeleteReservation删除对象,完成后删除summaryDisplay DIV块中的相应行。
