    WebApi routing

    I have the following web api controller:

        public class ProductApiController : UmbracoApiController
{
    public IEnumerable<Product> GetAll(string homeId)
    {
        return ContentService.Instance.GetAllProducts(homeId);
    }
}

    works fine you you call it like

    /Umbraco/Api/ProductApi/GetAll?homeId=1050

    however if you call it like

    /Umbraco/Api/ProductApi/GetAll/homeId/1050

    or

    /Umbraco/Api/ProductApi/GetAll/1050

    You get error

    "No HTTP resource was found that matches the request URI"

    So is this way of calling webapi which works as I have done it before outside of umbraco not work with umbraco webapi?

    Regards

    Ismail

    aha, makes sense that second post however at least you can map your own route then what ever you pass in will work.

    RouteTable.Routes.MapHttpRoute("ScheduleApi", "Umbraco/Api/ScheduleApi/{action}/{day}", new { controller = "ScheduleApi", day = RouteParameter.Optional });

    Cheers

    If in your example you call it Id instead of homeId, it will work with the default root eg /umbraco/api/ProductApi/GetAll/1050

    publicIEnumerable<Product>GetAll(string Id)

    Marc,

    No that is a bit dirty in that id does not reflect intent of the parameter. I have got it working so i did 

            public void OnApplicationStarting(UmbracoApplicationBase umbracoApplication, ApplicationContext applicationContext)
    {
        MapWebApiRoutes();
    }

    private void MapWebApiRoutes()
    {
        RouteTable.Routes.MapHttpRoute("ProductApi", "Umbraco/Api/ProductApi/{action}/{homeId}", 
                                                     new
                                                     {
                                                         controller = "ProductApi", homeId = RouteParameter.Optional
                                                     }
                                      );
    }

    and my url

    Umbraco/Api/ProductApi/GetAll/1050

    works.

    Regards

    Ismail

    just illustrating why it wasn't working, ie homeid didn't match the current default route :-)

    but yes now you have a special custom route that 'knows about' the specialness of the  homeid parameter in your route.

    Hey guys, just a question, can we have the route even more clean and "restfull"? Like this: 

    publicclass SomeApiController:UmbracoApiController
    {
            public IEnumerable<string> Get()
            {
                return new string[] {"our", "umbraco", "rocks" };
            }
    }

    And call it like this?

    /Umbraco/Api/SomeApi/

    Thanks! Joao.
