Query Endpoint Template

The API Template guides developers down the path of implementing CQRS for REST based endpoints, as discussed in Introduction to CQRS

The query template is a great option if you want to add an additional query option to your endpoints. This template works in a similar fashion to the Command Endpoint Template

To do so you can simply use

dotnet new query -n <name of your query> -o <Directory location to create> --namespace <Namespace you would like to use>  --resource <name of the resource>

Switches

• -n Name of the Endpoint being created
• -o the output directory you would like to create
• --namespace The root namespace of your project i.e. Your company or project name
• --resource the name of the resource the command will be associated too
• --force This is an optional command which enables overwriting some or all of the folders associated with the command.

Example

In a similar example we defined in the Command Endpoint Template we want to create a Read endpoint in our Email API resource.

 dotnet new query -n Read -o SampleProject/Activities/Email --namespace SampleProject --resource Email

Which will result in a number of folders & files being created.
