c# - 如何使用适合导入的 WebApi HelpPages 从 WebApi2 项目生成 JSON Postman 集合

Question

Postman是一个可以用来轻松测试 RESTful Web 服务的工具。

如果 Asp.Net 项目将WebApi与 WebApi 结合使用，则可以为暴露的 RESTful Web 服务自动生成帮助页面文档。

这个自动生成的文档很好，但可以通过增加可访问性使其变得更好。

如何将这些技术结合起来生成可以在 Postman 中导入的 JSON 文件？

Answer 1

扩展博客文章“使用 ApiExplorer 将 API 信息导出到 PostMan，一个用于测试 Web API 的 Chrome 扩展”，可以生成一个 JSON 文件，该文件可以导入 Postman 以用于测试和记录。

首先你需要设置一个可以导出 JSON 的控制器

                                  CollectionId = postManCollection.Id,
                                  Id = Guid.NewGuid(),
                                  Name = apiDescription.RelativePath,
                                  Description = apiDescription.Documentation,

            postManCollection.Folders.Add(postManFolder);

        return postManCollection;
    }
}

/// <summary>
///     Quick comparer for ordering http methods for display
/// </summary>
internal class HttpMethodComparator : IComparer<HttpMethod>
{
    private readonly string[] _order =
    {
        "GET",
        "POST",
        "PUT",
        "DELETE"
    };

    public int Compare(HttpMethod x, HttpMethod y)
    {
        return Array.IndexOf(this._order, x.ToString()).CompareTo(Array.IndexOf(this._order, y.ToString()));
    }
}

并生成正确的模型：

一个用于PostManCollection

/// <summary>
///     [Postman](http://getpostman.com) collection representation
/// </summary>
public class PostmanCollectionGet
{
    /// <summary>
    ///     Id of collection
    /// </summary>
    [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "id")]
    public Guid Id { get; set; }

    /// <summary>
    ///     Name of collection
    /// </summary>
    [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "name")]
    public string Name { get; set; }

    /// <summary>
    ///     Collection generation time
    /// </summary>
    [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "timestamp")]
    public long Timestamp { get; set; }

    /// <summary>
    ///     Requests associated with the collection
    /// </summary>
    [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "requests")]
    public ICollection<PostmanRequestGet> Requests { get; set; }

    /// <summary>
    ///     **unused always false**
    /// </summary>
    [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "synced")]
    public bool Synced { get; set; }

    /// <summary>
    ///     folders within the collection
    /// </summary>
    [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "folders")]
    public ICollection<PostmanFolderGet> Folders { get; set; }

    /// <summary>
    ///     Description of collection
    /// </summary>
    [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "description")]
    public string Description { get; set; }
}

一个用于邮递员文件夹

/// <summary>
///     Object that describes a [Postman](http://getpostman.com) folder
/// </summary>
public class PostmanFolderGet
{
    /// <summary>
    ///     id of the folder
    /// </summary>
    [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "id")]
    public Guid Id { get; set; }

    /// <summary>
    ///     folder name
    /// </summary>
    [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "name")]
    public string Name { get; set; }

    /// <summary>
    ///     folder description
    /// </summary>
    [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "description")]
    public string Description { get; set; }

    /// <summary>
    ///     ordered list of ids of items in folder
    /// </summary>
    [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "order")]
    public ICollection<Guid> Order { get; set; }

    /// <summary>
    ///     Name of the collection
    /// </summary>
    [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "collection_name")]
    public string CollectionName { get; set; }

    /// <summary>
    ///     id of the collection
    /// </summary>
    [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "collection_id")]
    public Guid CollectionId { get; set; }
}

最后是PostmanRequest的模型

/// <summary>
///     [Postman](http://getpostman.com) request object
/// </summary>
public class PostmanRequestGet
{
    /// <summary>
    ///     id of request
    /// </summary>
    [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "id")]
    public Guid Id { get; set; }

    /// <summary>
    ///     headers associated with the request
    /// </summary>
    [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "headers")]
    public string Headers { get; set; }

    /// <summary>
    ///     url of the request
    /// </summary>
    [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "url")]
    public string Url { get; set; }

    /// <summary>
    ///     path variables of the request
    /// </summary>
    [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "pathVariables")]
    public Dictionary<string, string> PathVariables { get; set; }

    /// <summary>
    ///     method of request
    /// </summary>
    [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "method")]
    public string Method { get; set; }

    /// <summary>
    ///     data to be sent with the request
    /// </summary>
    [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "data")]
    public string Data { get; set; }

    /// <summary>
    ///     data mode of reqeust
    /// </summary>
    [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "dataMode")]
    public string DataMode { get; set; }

    /// <summary>
    ///     name of request
    /// </summary>
    [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "name")]
    public string Name { get; set; }

    /// <summary>
    ///     request description
    /// </summary>
    [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "description")]
    public string Description { get; set; }

    /// <summary>
    ///     format of description
    /// </summary>
    [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "descriptionFormat")]
    public string DescriptionFormat { get; set; }

    /// <summary>
    ///     time that this request object was generated
    /// </summary>
    [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "time")]
    public long Time { get; set; }

    /// <summary>
    ///     version of the request object
    /// </summary>
    [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "version")]
    public string Version { get; set; }

    /// <summary>
    ///     request response
    /// </summary>
    [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "responses")]
    public ICollection<string> Responses { get; set; }

    /// <summary>
    ///     the id of the collection that the request object belongs to
    /// </summary>
    [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "collection-id")]
    public Guid CollectionId { get; set; }

    /// <summary>
    ///     Synching
    /// </summary>
    [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "synced")]
    public bool Synced { get; set; }
}

现在您需要做的就是向 [application]api/postman 发出一个 GET 请求，您将拥有邮递员可读的最新的 restful API。

Answer 2

为什么不使用标准 Swagger 并将其与 Postman 一起使用？

1. 什么是招摇？（Rest Web API 文档和客户端启用程序）
2. 将 Swagger 文件导入 Postman
3. 在 Visual Studio 中使用Swashbuckle NuGet 包为您的 API 生成 Swagger (Install-Package Swashbuckle -Pre)

奖励：ASP.NET Core Rest WebAPI 支持此解决方案

Answer 4

您还需要更新 PostmanRequestGet.cs 模型以使其正常工作。

更新如下：-

 /// <summary>
        ///     the id of the collection that the request object belongs to
        /// </summary>
        [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "collectionId")]
        public Guid CollectionId { get; set; }
