Reference only - original repo and implementation in Azure DevOps

This .NET solution aims to serve as a learning space for development and testing within the Microsoft ecosystem.

• .NET Core SDK

.NET is a free, cross-platform, open source developer platform for building many different types of applications. You can follow Microsoft's guide to get up and running in 10 minutes

1. Clone this repo to your local machine via Git
2. Use dotnet build to download package dependencies and build the app
3. Switch to the API directory and build the SQLite db with Entity Framework using dotnet ef database update
4. Start the API service with dotnet run
5. Try the users endpoint in your browser: http://localhost:5000/api/users

[
    {
        "id": 1,
        "firstName": "Ross",
        "lastName": "Aubrey-Smith",
        "email": "ross.aubrey-smith@vulcan"
    },
    {
        "id": 2,
        "firstName": "Captain",
        "lastName": "Deadpool",
        "email": null
    }
]

6. To test the app, run the dotnet test --no-build command from the tests directory in a new terminal
7. You can rebuild the test project after updates while the API app is still running by using dotnet build --no-dependencies

If you make changes to the model, you can use the dotnet ef migrations add command to scaffold a new migration. Once you have checked the scaffolded code (and made any required changes), you can use the dotnet ef database update command to apply the schema changes to the database.

Feel free to develop the API, add more tests, setup a UI or anything else you can think of!

This project makes use of git and for now it is recommended to follow a Feature Branch model

The master branch uses a policy restriction to enforce code reviews via Pull Request. Simply make your changes locally (in your feature branch), then Commit and Push. Please use good commit messages and naming for your PR

Forgot to branch? Commited straight to master and now can't push your changes? Simply create a new branch from your local, then revert master to the same commit as origin.
