Can I get simple type parameter from Route attribute and complex type from uri in HttpGet?-CodePudding

I'll try to explain my question on example below

if we have url such as this one:

localhost/api/person/5?FirstName=Adam&LastName=Smith&City=London

and try to get parameters

    [HttpGet]
    [Route("person/{someId}")]
    public ActionResult Location(string someId, PersonRequest request)

Is it possible to try something like "someId" going to by binded to "/5" and everything after "?" is binded to PersonRequest?

    public class PersonRequest
{
    public string? FirstName { get; set; }
    public string? LastName { get; set; }
    public string? City { get; set; }
}

I've been trying to match it with [FromUri] etc. but I don't have clue how to do this. It only works if i list down all parameters in Location method.

CodePudding user response：

You can use FromQuery Inline Attribute as per below:

[HttpGet]
[Route("person/{someId}")]
public ActionResult Location(string someId,[FromQuery] PersonRequest request)
{
    // TODO
}

By the way, I believe a good practice is to only bind search terms, filters, etc. from the query string. If your use-case is to publish a rest API then binding from the body is the correct approach.

Consider checking Parameter Binding in ASP.NET Web API as it may help you to acknowledge deeper regarding the bindings.
