ASP.NET Core 3 and React

By: Carl Rippon

Overview of this book

Microsoft's ASP.NET Core is a robust and high-performing cross-platform web API framework, and Facebook's React uses declarative JavaScript to drive a rich, interactive user experience on the client-side web. Together, they can be used to build full stack apps with enhanced security and scalability at each layer. This book will start by taking you through React and TypeScript components to build an intuitive single-page application. You’ll understand how to design scalable REST APIs that can integrate with a React-based frontend. You’ll get to grips with the latest features, popular patterns, and tools available in the React ecosystem, including function-based components, React Router, and Redux. The book shows how you can use TypeScript along with React to make the frontend robust and maintainable. You’ll then cover important .NET Core features such as API controllers, attribute routing, and model binding to help you build a sturdy backend. Additionally, you’ll explore API security with ASP.NET Core identity and authorization policies, and write reliable unit tests using both .NET Core and React before you deploy your app to the Azure cloud. By the end of the book, you’ll have gained all the knowledge you need to enhance your C# and JavaScript skills and build full stack, production-ready applications with ASP.NET Core and React.

  1. We have the following code in a data repository that uses Dapper's multi result feature to return a single order with the many related detail lines in a single database call:
using (var connection = new SqlConnection(_connectionString))
{
connection.Open();

using (GridReader results = connection.QueryMultiple(
@"EXEC dbo.Order_GetHeader @OrderId = @OrderId;
EXEC dbo.OrderDetails_Get_ByOrderId @OrderId = @OrderId",
new { OrderId = orderId }))
{

// TODO - Read the order and details from the query result

return order;
}
}

What are the missing statements that will read the order and its details from the results putting the details in the order model? The order model is of the OrderGetSingleResponse type and contains a Details property of...
