About

Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.NewtonsoftJson is a NuGet package designed to enable the use of JSON serialization and deserialization using Newtonsoft.Json in ASP.NET Core MVC applications. This package provides support for handling JSON input and output in ASP.NET Core MVC controllers, allowing for seamless integration with existing Newtonsoft.Json configurations and features.

Key Features

• Integration of Newtonsoft.Json into ASP.NET Core MVC for JSON serialization and deserialization.
• Compatible with ASP.NET Core 3.0 and newer.
• Allows customization of JSON serialization settings.
• Supports handling JSON requests and responses in MVC controllers.

How to Use

To start using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.NewtonsoftJson in your ASP.NET Core MVC application, follow these steps:

Installation

dotnet add package Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.NewtonsoftJson

Configuration

In your Startup.cs file, configure NewtonsoftJson as the default JSON serializer for ASP.NET Core MVC:

using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc;
using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;
using Newtonsoft.Json;

public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
    services.AddControllersWithViews()
        .AddNewtonsoftJson(options =>
        {
            // Configure Newtonsoft.Json options here
            options.SerializerSettings.ReferenceLoopHandling = ReferenceLoopHandling.Ignore;
            options.SerializerSettings.NullValueHandling = NullValueHandling.Ignore;
        });
}

Usage

Now, you can use Newtonsoft.Json serialization and deserialization in your ASP.NET Core MVC controllers:

using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc;
using Newtonsoft.Json;

public class SampleController : Controller
{
    [HttpPost]
    public IActionResult Post([FromBody] MyModel model)
    {
        // Your action logic here
    }
}

public class MyModel
{
    public string Name { get; set; }
    public int Age { get; set; }
}
