asp.net web api 构建api帮助文档

1 概要

创建ASP.NET Web Api 时模板自带Help Pages框架。

2 问题

1）使用VS创建Web Api项目时，模板将Help Pages框架自动集成到其中，使得Web Api项目引入了MVC框架开发包，使得项目看起来杂乱。

2）自带的Help Pages框架无法针对Odata控制器生成API文档。

3 问题解决方案

1）独立Help Pages项目，以插件形式添加服务

步骤1,添加类ServiceAssembliesResolver，获得服务集

　　 /// <summary>
    /// 获取插件服务
    /// </summary>
    public class ServiceAssembliesResolver : DefaultAssembliesResolver
    {
        public override ICollection<Assembly> GetAssemblies()
        {
            //获得已有的服务
            ICollection<Assembly> baseAssemblies = base.GetAssemblies();
            //初始化
            List<Assembly> assemblies = new List<Assembly>(baseAssemblies);
            //服务插件dll路径
            var path = WebConfigSetting.ServicesLocation;
            //加载每一个服务插件
            foreach (string file in Directory.GetFiles(path, "*.dll"))
            {
                var controllersAssembly = Assembly.LoadFrom(file);
                assemblies.Add(controllersAssembly);
            }
            
            return assemblies;
        }
}

步骤2,替换现有服务

在WebApiConfig.Register方法中添加代码

config.Services.Replace(typeof(IAssembliesResolver), new ServiceAssembliesResolver());

完整代码如下：

namespace HY_WebApi.HelpPages
{
    public static class WebApiConfig
    {
        public static void Register(HttpConfiguration config)
        {
            // Web API 配置和服务
            config.Services.Replace(typeof(IAssembliesResolver), new ServiceAssembliesResolver());

            // Web API 路由
            config.MapHttpAttributeRoutes();

            config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
                name: "DefaultApi",
                routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{action}/{id}",
                defaults: new { id = RouteParameter.Optional }
            );

            //OData路由,将路由名称设置为控制器(去掉Controller)名称，以便生成Api帮助文档
            config.MapODataServiceRoute(
                routeName: "ODataSearch",
                routePrefix: "odata",
                model: GetEdmModel(),
                batchHandler: new DefaultODataBatchHandler(GlobalConfiguration.DefaultServer));

        }
        private static IEdmModel GetEdmModel()
        {
            ODataConventionModelBuilder builder = new ODataConventionModelBuilder();
            builder.EntitySet<Institution>("ODataSearch");

            builder.Namespace = "Search";
            //builder.EntityType<Institution>().Collection.Function("GetByIdEq2").Returns<string>();
            return builder.GetEdmModel();
        }

        public class Institution
        {
            public int Id { get; set; }
            public string Name { get; set; }
            public string Address { get; set; }
        }
    }
}

步骤3，添加MultiXmlDocumentationProvider类，读取多个XML文档

　　 /// <summary>
    /// 加载目录下的所有Xml文档
    /// </summary>
    public class MultiXmlDocumentationProvider : IDocumentationProvider, IModelDocumentationProvider
    {
        private IList<XmlDocumentationProvider> _documentationProviders;

        public MultiXmlDocumentationProvider(string xmlDocFilesPath)
        {
            _documentationProviders = new List<XmlDocumentationProvider>();

            foreach (string file in Directory.GetFiles(xmlDocFilesPath, "*.xml"))
            {
                _documentationProviders.Add(new XmlDocumentationProvider(file));
            }
        }

        public string GetDocumentation(HttpParameterDescriptor parameterDescriptor)
        {
            return _documentationProviders.Select(x => x.GetDocumentation(parameterDescriptor)).FirstOrDefault(x => !string.IsNullOrEmpty(x));
        }

        public string GetDocumentation(Type type)
        {
            return _documentationProviders.Select(x => x.GetDocumentation(type)).FirstOrDefault(x => !string.IsNullOrEmpty(x));
        }

        //成员导航
        public string GetDocumentation(MemberInfo member)
        {
            return _documentationProviders
          .Select(x => x.GetDocumentation(member))
          .FirstOrDefault(x => !string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(x));
        }

        //action 描述
        public string GetDocumentation(HttpActionDescriptor actionDescriptor)
        {
            return _documentationProviders.Select(x => x.GetDocumentation(actionDescriptor)).FirstOrDefault(x => !string.IsNullOrEmpty(x));
        }

        //Controller 描述
        public string GetDocumentation(HttpControllerDescriptor controllerDescriptor)
        {
            return _documentationProviders.Select(x => x.GetDocumentation(controllerDescriptor)).FirstOrDefault(x => !string.IsNullOrEmpty(x));
        }

        public string GetResponseDocumentation(HttpActionDescriptor actionDescriptor)
        {
            return _documentationProviders.Select(x => x.GetDocumentation(actionDescriptor)).FirstOrDefault(x => !string.IsNullOrEmpty(x));

        }
　　}

步骤4，使用MultiXmlDocumentationProvider

将config.SetDocumentationProvider(new MultiXmlDocumentationProvider(WebConfigSetting.ServicesLocation));添加到Register方法中

步骤5，创建服务插件文件夹，将服务插件及其XML文档放在文件夹中。

2）重构ApiExplorer，获得Odata控制器的API文档

步骤1，重构ApiExplorer

public class CustomApiExplorer : ApiExplorer
    {
        private HttpConfiguration configuration;
        public CustomApiExplorer(HttpConfiguration configuration)
            : base(configuration)
        {
            this.configuration = configuration;
        }
        public override bool ShouldExploreController(string controllerVariableValue, HttpControllerDescriptor controllerDescriptor, IHttpRoute route)
        {
            if (controllerDescriptor == null)
            {
                throw new ArgumentNullException("controllerDescriptor");
            }

            if (route == null)
            {
                throw new ArgumentNullException("route");
            }
            var c = controllerDescriptor.ControllerName;
            //获得OData路由
            IEdmModel edm = EdmModelCreater.GetEdmModel();
            List<string> collectionFromEdms = new List<string>();
            foreach (var item in edm.EntityContainer.Elements)
            {
                collectionFromEdms.Add(item.Name);
            }

            //如果是Odata控制器，那么忽略ApiExplorerSettingsAttribute
            ApiExplorerSettingsAttribute setting = controllerDescriptor.GetCustomAttributes<ApiExplorerSettingsAttribute>().FirstOrDefault();
            bool isOdataController = collectionFromEdms.Contains(controllerDescriptor.ControllerName);
            bool isBaseApi = controllerDescriptor.ControllerName != "BaseApi";
            return isBaseApi||isOdataController ||
                ((setting == null || !setting.IgnoreApi) && MatchRegexConstraint(route, RouteValueKeys.Controller, controllerVariableValue));
        }

        public override bool ShouldExploreAction(string actionVariableValue, HttpActionDescriptor actionDescriptor, IHttpRoute route)
        {
            if (actionDescriptor == null)
            {
                throw new ArgumentNullException("actionDescriptor");
            }

            if (route == null)
            {
                throw new ArgumentNullException("route");
            }

            //获得OData路由
            IEdmModel edm = EdmModelCreater.GetEdmModel();
            List<string> collectionFromEdms = new List<string>();
            foreach (var item in edm.EntityContainer.Elements)
            {
                collectionFromEdms.Add(item.Name);
            }

            //如果是Odata控制器，那么忽略ApiExplorerSettingsAttribute
            ApiExplorerSettingsAttribute setting = actionDescriptor.ControllerDescriptor.GetCustomAttributes<ApiExplorerSettingsAttribute>().FirstOrDefault();
            bool isOdataController = collectionFromEdms.Contains(actionDescriptor.ControllerDescriptor.ControllerName);
            bool isBaseApi = actionDescriptor.ControllerDescriptor.ControllerName != "BaseApi";
            return isBaseApi||isOdataController ||
                ((setting == null || !setting.IgnoreApi) && MatchRegexConstraint(route, RouteValueKeys.Action, actionVariableValue));
        }


        private static bool MatchRegexConstraint(IHttpRoute route, string parameterName, string parameterValue)
        {
            IDictionary<string, object> constraints = route.Constraints;
            if (constraints != null)
            {
                object constraint;
                if (constraints.TryGetValue(parameterName, out constraint))
                {
                    // treat the constraint as a string which represents a Regex.
                    // note that we don't support custom constraint (IHttpRouteConstraint) because it might rely on the request and some runtime states
                    string constraintsRule = constraint as string;
                    if (constraintsRule != null)
                    {
                        string constraintsRegEx = "^(" + constraintsRule + ")$";
                        return parameterValue != null && Regex.IsMatch(parameterValue, constraintsRegEx, RegexOptions.CultureInvariant | RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);
                    }
                }
            }

            return true;
        }
    }

添加RouteValueKeys类

internal static class RouteValueKeys
{
        // Used to provide the action and controller name
        public const string Action = "action";
        public const string Controller = "controller";
}

添加OdataRelativePath类

public static class OdataRelativePath
    {
        public static void GetOdataRelativePath(CustomApiExplorer customApiExplorer, HttpConfiguration configuration)
        {
            IEdmModel edm = EdmModelCreater.GetEdmModel();
            List<string> collectionFromEdms = new List<string>();
            foreach(var item in edm.EntityContainer.Elements)
            {
                collectionFromEdms.Add(item.Name);
            }
            Collection<ApiDescription> apiColloction = customApiExplorer.ApiDescriptions;
            foreach (ApiDescription api in apiColloction)
            {
                string controllerName = api.ActionDescriptor.ControllerDescriptor.ControllerName;
                //去掉Odata中控制器的版本号
                var controllerSelector = configuration.Services.GetService(typeof(IHttpControllerSelector)) as VersionControllerSelector;
                string oldString = controllerSelector.RouteVersionSuffixMapping.First(m => m.Key.Contains("OdataRouteVersioning")).Value;
                controllerName = controllerName.Replace(oldString, "");
                if (collectionFromEdms.Contains(controllerName))
                {
                    string actionName = api.ActionDescriptor.ActionName;
                    var parameters = api.ActionDescriptor.GetParameters();
                    string paramStr = null;
                    foreach (var parameter in parameters)
                    {
                        var t = parameter.ParameterType;
                        if (parameter.ParameterType.IsClass)
                        {
                            continue;
                        }
                        if (paramStr != null)
                        {
                            paramStr = string.Format("{0}&({1}={1})", paramStr, parameter.ParameterName);
                        }
                        else
                        {
                            paramStr = string.Format("({0}={0})", parameter.ParameterName);
                        }
                    }
                    api.RelativePath = string.Format("{0}/{1}/{2}/Service.{3}{4}", "odata", "{Version}", controllerName, actionName, paramStr);
                }
                else
                {
                    Regex reg=new Regex("[0-9]");
                    Match match = reg.Match(api.RelativePath);
                    if(match.Success)
                    {
                        api.RelativePath = api.RelativePath.Replace(string.Format("V{0}",match.Value),"");
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }

步骤2;根据OData路由拼出api的URI

使用OdataRelativePath.GetOdataRelativePath方法修改ApiExplorer.ApiDescriptions中的URI 例如在控制器中

　　　　 public ActionResult Index()
        {
            ViewBag.DocumentationProvider = Configuration.Services.GetDocumentationProvider();
            CustomApiExplorer customApiExplorer = new CustomApiExplorer(Configuration);
            OdataRelativePath.GetOdataRelativePath(customApiExplorer,Configuration);
            Collection<ApiDescription> apiDescriptions = new Collection<ApiDescription>();
            List<ApiDescription> list = new List<ApiDescription>();
            foreach (ApiDescription ad in customApiExplorer.ApiDescriptions)
            {
                if (ad.ActionDescriptor.ControllerDescriptor.ControllerName != "Metadata" && ad.ActionDescriptor.ActionName != "ToJson")
                {
                    list.Add(ad); 
                }
            }
            list = list.OrderBy(m => m.ActionDescriptor.ControllerDescriptor.ControllerName).ToList();
            list.ForEach(m => 
            {
                apiDescriptions.Add(m);
            });
            return View(apiDescriptions);
        }

注意：配置Odata路由时，将路由名称配置为控制器名称（不含Controller字符串），并且编写服务程序时，遵循一个实体对应一个控制器，对应一个Odata路由。
