How to check if a context request path starts with a given string from a list of strings?-CodePudding

I have multiple if statements here which would check if a request path starts with a given string and return true if the condition is met

if (context.Request.Path.StartsWithSegments("/abc/def", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase))
 {  return true; }
if (context.Request.Path.StartsWithSegments("/pqr/xyz", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase))
 {  return true; }

and so on with few more if statements....

How do I optimize this and create a list of such values ("/abc/def") where it would just iterate through the list and return true if the condition is met?

CodePudding user response：

You can use .Any() with the list of expected path,

var expectedPath = new List<string>(){"/abc/def", "/pqr/xyz"};

return expectedPath.Any(x => context.Request.Path.StartsWithSegments(x, StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase));

You can Use Array.Exists() method for checking path is expectedPath array.

    string[] expectedPath = {"/abc/def", "/pqr/xyz"};
    Console.WriteLine(Array.Exists(expectedPath, element => emlement == StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase);
    Console.WriteLine(Array.Exists(expectedPath, element => element =="/abc/def")); // this will return true
    Console.WriteLine(Array.Exists(expectedPath, element => element =="A")); //this is return false
