Install "Microsoft ASP.NET Web API Self Host" and all of its
|
|
dependencies via NuGet.
|
|
|
|
```csharp
|
|
using System;
|
|
using System.Collections.Generic;
|
|
using System.Linq;
|
|
using System.Text;
|
|
using System.Threading;
|
|
using System.Threading.Tasks;
|
|
using System.Web.Http;
|
|
using System.Web.Http.SelfHost;
|
|
|
|
namespace resttest
|
|
{
|
|
public class ExampleData { public int Id { get; set; } }
|
|
|
|
public class ExampleController : ApiController
|
|
{
|
|
// /api/job
|
|
public IEnumerable<ExampleData> Get()
|
|
{
|
|
return new List<ExampleData>()
|
|
{
|
|
new ExampleData(){ Id = 2 },
|
|
new ExampleData(){ Id = 4 }
|
|
};
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// /api/job/3
|
|
public ExampleData Get(int id)
|
|
{
|
|
return new ExampleData() { Id = 3 };
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
class Program
|
|
{
|
|
static void Main(string[] args)
|
|
{
|
|
var configuration =
|
|
new HttpSelfHostConfiguration("http://localhost:1337");
|
|
//Setup the routes
|
|
configuration.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
|
|
name: "DefaultApiRoute",
|
|
routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{id}",
|
|
defaults: new
|
|
{ controller = "ExampleController", id = RouteParameter.Optional }
|
|
);
|
|
var server = new HttpSelfHostServer(configuration);
|
|
server.OpenAsync().Wait();
|
|
|
|
Console.Out.WriteLine("Press ESC to quit");
|
|
do
|
|
{
|
|
while (!Console.KeyAvailable)
|
|
{
|
|
Thread.Sleep(256);
|
|
}
|
|
} while (Console.ReadKey(true).Key != ConsoleKey.Escape);
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
We can launch it and query it using any http-enabled client:
|
|
|
|
`$ curl http://localhost:1337/api/Example [{"Id":2},{"Id":4}]`
|
|
|

Happy hacking !
