PetManager 🐶🐱

This project contains a sample ASP.NET Core app. This app is an example of the article I produced for the Telerik Blog (telerik.com/blogs).

PetManager is a minimal API built using .NET 7 that allows you to manage pets using a SQLite database. It provides basic CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations for pet entities.

Requirements

Before running the PetManager project, ensure that you have the following dependencies installed:

• .NET 7 SDK: https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet/7.0

🥏 Getting Started

To download and run the PetManager project, follow these steps:

1. Clone the repository to your local machine:

   git clone https://github.com/zangassis/pet-manager.git

2. Navigate to the project directory:

   cd PetManager

3. Build the project:

   dotnet build

4. Apply the database migrations to create the SQLite database:

   dotnet ef database update --project PetManager

5. Run the API:

   dotnet run --project PetManager

The API should now be running locally on http://localhost:[PORT].

🧩 API Endpoints

The PetManager API provides the following endpoints:

• GET /pets: Retrieves all pets.
• GET /pets/{id}: Retrieves a specific pet by its ID.
• POST /pets: Creates a new pet.
• PUT /pets/{id}: Updates an existing pet.
• DELETE /pets/{id}: Deletes a pet.

🐶 Example Usage

To create a new pet, you can use a tool like cURL or a REST client of your choice:

curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{
  "id": "3fa85f64-5717-4562-b3fc-2c963f66afa6",
  "name": "Max",
  "species": "Dog",
  "breed": "Golden Retriever",
  "age": 3,
  "color": "Golden",
  "weight": 30,
  "vaccinated": true,
  "lastVaccinationDate": "2023-05-01",
  "owner": {
    "id": "3fa85f64-5717-4562-b3fc-2c963f66afa6",
    "name": "John Doe",
    "email": "johndoe@example.com",
    "phone": "123-456-7890"
  }
}
' http://localhost:5000/api/pets

This will create a new pet named "Max" with the species "Dog" and age 3.
