ASP.NET Core and Vue.js

Overview of this book

Vue.js 3 is faster and smaller than the previous version, and TypeScript’s full support out of the box makes it a more maintainable and easier-to-use version of Vue.js. Then, there's ASP.NET Core 5, which is the fastest .NET web framework today. Together, Vue.js for the frontend and ASP.NET Core 5 for the backend make a powerful combination. This book follows a hands-on approach to implementing practical methodologies for building robust applications using ASP.NET Core 5 and Vue.js 3. The topics here are not deep dive and the book is intended for busy .NET developers who have limited time and want a quick implementation of a clean architecture with popular libraries. You’ll start by setting up your web app’s backend, guided by clean architecture, command query responsibility segregation (CQRS), mediator pattern, and Entity Framework Core 5. The book then shows you how to build the frontend application using best practices, state management with Vuex, Vuetify UI component libraries, Vuelidate for input validations, lazy loading with Vue Router, and JWT authentication. Later, you’ll focus on testing and deployment. All the tutorials in this book support Windows 10, macOS, and Linux users. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to build an enterprise full-stack web app, use the most common npm packages for Vue.js and NuGet packages for ASP.NET Core, and deploy Vue.js and ASP.NET Core to Azure App Service using GitHub Actions.

Writing commands

We will now create our first command, which is a request for saving, updating, or deleting data, and a command handler, which will resolve what the command needs. Again, the controller is responsible for sending or dispatching the commands to the relevant handlers.

Now we are in the part where we are going to create commands for TourLists and TourPackages.

Let's create a folder inside the TourLists directory of the Tour.Application project and name it Commands. Then, let's create three folders inside that folder and name them CreateTourList, DeleteTourList, and UpdateTourList.

Now it's time to create some commands and command validators. Create two C# files inside the CreateTourList folder:

// CreateTourListCommand.cs

using MediatR;
…
namespace Travel.Application.TourLists.Commands.CreateTourList
{
  public partial class CreateTourListCommand :
    IRequest<int>
  {
…
