SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill streamlines the creation of ASP.NET Minimal API endpoints, ensuring they are well-structured, type-safe, and automatically documented with OpenAPI specifications.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Structured API Development: Organizes endpoints using MapGroup and endpoint filters for maintainability.
  • Robust Type Handling: Defines explicit DTOs, uses TypedResults, and leverages C# 10+ features for type safety.
  • OpenAPI Integration: Automatically generates OpenAPI documentation with summaries, descriptions, and operation IDs.
  • Use Case: Develop a new set of RESTful endpoints for a user management system, ensuring clear request/response models and discoverable API documentation for consumers.

Quick Start

Use the aspnet-minimal-api-openapi skill to create a new ASP.NET Minimal API endpoint for retrieving user data with OpenAPI documentation.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate OpenAPI documentation for ASP.NET Minimal APIs?

To generate OpenAPI documentation for ASP.NET Minimal APIs, define explicit DTOs and use TypedResults for responses. This approach ensures structured API organization and automatically produces comprehensive OpenAPI schemas with summaries and operation IDs.

What is the best way to structure a Minimal API in ASP.NET for maintainability?

The best way to structure a Minimal API in ASP.NET is by using MapGroup to organize related endpoints and applying endpoint filters. This maintains a clean architecture while ensuring strong type handling for requests and responses.

Does .NET 9 support automatic OpenAPI schema generation for Minimal APIs?

Yes, .NET 9 supports automatic OpenAPI schema generation for Minimal APIs. You can leverage built-in .NET 9 OpenAPI features alongside C# 10 constructs to produce robust, type-safe API documentation natively.

Can I use TypedResults to improve OpenAPI schema accuracy in ASP.NET Minimal APIs?

Yes, using TypedResults significantly improves OpenAPI schema accuracy in ASP.NET Minimal APIs. It provides strong type handling for responses, ensuring the generated OpenAPI documentation precisely reflects your API's actual output models.

How do I organize RESTful endpoints in a user management system using Minimal APIs?

To organize RESTful endpoints in a user management system using Minimal APIs, group route definitions with MapGroup and define explicit request and response DTOs. This yields clear, discoverable OpenAPI documentation for API consumers.

Why are my Minimal API OpenAPI summaries missing in the generated Swagger document?

Minimal API OpenAPI summaries may be missing if explicit descriptions and operation IDs are not defined. Ensure you provide comprehensive metadata during endpoint configuration to generate complete OpenAPI documentation.
