dknet-endpoint-config

name: dknet-endpoint-config description: Create Minimal API endpoint configurations using this project's IEndpointConfig pattern with fluent helpers (MapGetList, MapGetById, MapPost, MapPut, MapDelete). Use after AppServices actions are ready.

Skill: Endpoint Configuration

Create versioned REST API endpoints that wire AppServices actions to HTTP routes using the project's fluent endpoint mapping pattern.

When to Use

• After completing dknet-appservices-actions skill
• Exposing CRUD operations as REST API endpoints
• Adding a new versioned endpoint group

Inputs Required

1. Entity class (from domain)
2. DTO class (from AppServices): the response DTO
3. Action requests (from AppServices): Create, Update, Delete request types
4. API version: integer (e.g., 1)
5. Route group: kebab-case path (e.g., /customer-profiles)
6. Idempotency: does POST need idempotency key?

Project Conventions (from actual codebase)

IEndpointConfig Pattern

• Implement IEndpointConfig interface — auto-discovered via assembly scanning
• Class must be internal sealed
• Version → API version integer
• GroupEndpoint → route path (e.g., /customer-profiles)
• Map(RouteGroupBuilder group) → wire endpoints using fluent helpers
• Tag is auto-derived from GroupEndpoint (strips / → kebab-case)

Auto-Wiring (EndpointConfig.cs)

UseEndpointConfigs() scans the assembly for all IEndpointConfig implementations, creates versioned groups with:

• SetUserIdPropertyFilter → fills RequestBase.ByUser from JWT
• FluentValidation auto-validation (if configured)
• RequireAuthorization() (if auth is configured)
• API versioning via {version:apiVersion} path segment

Fluent Endpoint Helpers

All fluent helpers automatically:

• Dispatch through IMessageBus.Send(request) (SlimMessageBus)
• Add common error Produces (400, 401, 403, 404, 409, 429, 500)
• POST with "Create" in name → 201 status code (detected via typeof(TCommand).Name.Contains("Create"))
• Note: MapGetList and MapGetById are different — they wire directly to IRepositorySpec with generic specs, NOT through the message bus. They don't need a request type parameter.

Step-by-Step

Step 1: Create the Endpoint Config

Create src/ApiEndpoints/Minimal.Api/ApiEndpoints/{Entity}V1Endpoint.cs:

using Minimal.AppServices.{Feature}.V1.Actions;
using Minimal.Domains.Features.{Feature}.Entities;
using {Entity}Dto = Minimal.AppServices.{Feature}.V1.{Entity}Dto;

namespace Minimal.Api.ApiEndpoints;

internal sealed class {Entity}V1Endpoint : IEndpointConfig
{
    #region Properties

    public int Version => 1;

    public string GroupEndpoint => "/{kebab-case-plural}";

    #endregion

    #region Methods

    public void Map(RouteGroupBuilder group)
    {
        // GET /v1/{route} — paginated list with filtering/sorting
        group.MapGetList<{Entity}, {Entity}Dto>()
            .WithDescription("Get all {entities}");

        // GET /v1/{route}/{id} — single entity by ID
        group.MapGetById<{Entity}, {Entity}Dto>()
            .WithDescription("Get {entity} by id");

        // POST /v1/{route} — create new entity
        group.MapPost<Create{Entity}Request, {Entity}Dto>()
            .WithDescription("Create {entity}");

        // PUT /v1/{route} — update existing entity
        group.MapPut<Update{Entity}Request, {Entity}Dto>()
            .WithDescription("Update {entity} by id");

        // DELETE /v1/{route} — soft-delete entity
        group.MapDelete<Delete{Entity}Request>()
            .WithDescription("Delete {entity} by id");
    }

    #endregion
}

Step 2: Add Idempotency (for POST, if needed)

using Minimal.Api.Configs.Idempotency;

// In the Map method:
group.MapPost<Create{Entity}Request, {Entity}Dto>()
    .AddIdempotencyFilter()
    .WithDescription(
        "Create {entity}. <br/><br/> Note: Idempotency key is required in the header. <br/>" +
        "X-Idempotency-Key: {IdempotencyKey} <br/>");

Step 3: Add Custom Endpoints (if needed)

For endpoints beyond basic CRUD:

// Custom query endpoint
group.MapGet<CustomQueryRequest, CustomResponseDto>("/custom-route")
    .WithDescription("Custom query description");

// Status counts endpoint
group.MapGetStatusCounts<{Entity}>("status",
    new StatusPropertyInfo("Status", typeof({Entity})))
    .WithDescription("Get {entity} status counts");

Step 4: Override Auth Policy (if needed)

internal sealed class {Entity}V1Endpoint : IEndpointConfig
{
    public int Version => 1;
    public string GroupEndpoint => "/{route}";
    public string? AuthPolicy => "AdminOnly";  // Override default auth
    public string Tag => "Custom Tag";          // Override auto-derived tag

    public void Map(RouteGroupBuilder group) { /* ... */ }
}

Reference: CustomerProfile (actual production code)

using Minimal.Api.Configs.Idempotency;
using Minimal.AppServices.CustomerProfiles.V1.Actions;
using Minimal.Domains.Features.Profiles.Entities;
using CustomerProfileDto = Minimal.AppServices.CustomerProfiles.V1.CustomerProfileDto;

namespace Minimal.Api.ApiEndpoints;

internal sealed class CustomerProfileV1Endpoint : IEndpointConfig
{
    public int Version => 1;
    public string GroupEndpoint => "/customer-profiles";

    public void Map(RouteGroupBuilder group)
    {
        group.MapGetList<CustomerProfile, CustomerProfileDto>()
            .WithDescription("Get all profiles");
        group.MapGetById<CustomerProfile, CustomerProfileDto>()
            .WithDescription("Get profile by id");

        group.MapPost<CreateProfileRequest, CustomerProfileDto>()
            .AddIdempotencyFilter()
            .WithDescription(
                "Create profile. <br/><br/> Note: Idempotency key is required in the header. <br/>" +
                "X-Idempotency-Key: {IdempotencyKey} <br/>");

        group.MapPut<UpdateProfileRequest, CustomerProfileDto>()
            .WithDescription("Update profile by id");

        group.MapDelete<DeleteProfileRequest>()
            .WithDescription("Delete profile by id");
    }
}

Validation Checklist

• Class implements IEndpointConfig interface
• Class is internal sealed
• Version returns correct API version integer
• GroupEndpoint uses kebab-case with leading /
• Map() uses fluent helpers (MapGetList, MapGetById, MapPost, MapPut, MapDelete)
• DTO type alias added if namespace conflicts: using {Entity}Dto = ...
• All endpoints have .WithDescription() for OpenAPI docs
• POST for creation uses MapPost (auto 201 for "Create" in name)
• DELETE without response body uses MapDelete<TReq>() (single generic param)
• Idempotency filter added to POST if needed (.AddIdempotencyFilter())
• File placed in Minimal.Api/ApiEndpoints/
• dotnet build src/DKNet.Templates.sln -c Release passes
• Swagger/Scalar UI shows endpoints correctly under versioned group

Common Mistakes

Complete Feature Verification

After creating the endpoint, verify the full vertical slice works:

# Build
dotnet build src/DKNet.Templates.sln -c Release

# Run API
dotnet run --project src/ApiEndpoints/Minimal.Api

# Test via Scalar UI (default: https://localhost:5001/scalar)
# Or test via curl:
curl -X GET https://localhost:5001/api/v1/{route}
curl -X POST https://localhost:5001/api/v1/{route} -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{...}'
