API Versioning System

ABP integrates the ASPNET-API-Versioning feature and adapts to C# and JavaScript Static Client Proxies and Auto API Controller.

Enable API Versioning

public override void ConfigureServices(ServiceConfigurationContext context)
{
    // Show neutral/versionless APIs.
    context.Services.AddTransient<IApiControllerFilter, NoControllerFilter>();
    context.Services.AddAbpApiVersioning(options =>
    {
        options.ReportApiVersions = true;
        options.AssumeDefaultVersionWhenUnspecified = true;
    });

    Configure<AbpAspNetCoreMvcOptions>(options =>
    {
        options.ChangeControllerModelApiExplorerGroupName = false;
    });
}

C# and JavaScript Static Client Proxies

This feature does not compatible with URL Path Versioning, we suggest to use Versioning-via-the-Query-String.

Example

Application Services:

public interface IBookAppService : IApplicationService
{
    Task<BookDto> GetAsync();
}

public interface IBookV2AppService : IApplicationService
{
    Task<BookDto> GetAsync();

    Task<BookDto> GetAsync(string isbn);
}

HttpApi Controllers:

[Area(BookStoreRemoteServiceConsts.ModuleName)]
[RemoteService(Name = BookStoreRemoteServiceConsts.RemoteServiceName)]
[ApiVersion("1.0", Deprecated = true)]
[ApiController]
[ControllerName("Book")]
[Route("api/BookStore/Book")]
public class BookController : BookStoreController, IBookAppService
{
    private readonly IBookAppService _bookAppService;

    public BookController(IBookAppService bookAppService)
    {
        _bookAppService = bookAppService;
    }

    [HttpGet]
    public async Task<BookDto> GetAsync()
    {
        return await _bookAppService.GetAsync();
    }
}

[Area(BookStoreRemoteServiceConsts.ModuleName)]
[RemoteService(Name = BookStoreRemoteServiceConsts.RemoteServiceName)]
[ApiVersion("2.0")]
[ApiController]
[ControllerName("Book")]
[Route("api/BookStore/Book")]
public class BookV2Controller : BookStoreController, IBookV2AppService
{
    private readonly IBookV2AppService _bookAppService;

    public BookV2Controller(IBookV2AppService bookAppService)
    {
        _bookAppService = bookAppService;
    }

    [HttpGet]
    public async Task<BookDto> GetAsync()
    {
        return await _bookAppService.GetAsync();
    }

    [HttpGet]
    [Route("{isbn}")]
    public async Task<BookDto> GetAsync(string isbn)
    {
        return await _bookAppService.GetAsync(isbn);
    }
}

Generated CS and JS proxies:

[Dependency(ReplaceServices = true)]
[ExposeServices(typeof(IBookAppService), typeof(BookClientProxy))]
public partial class BookClientProxy : ClientProxyBase<IBookAppService>, IBookAppService
{
    public virtual async Task<BookDto> GetAsync()
    {
        return await RequestAsync<BookDto>(nameof(GetAsync));
    }
}

[Dependency(ReplaceServices = true)]
[ExposeServices(typeof(IBookV2AppService), typeof(BookV2ClientProxy))]
public partial class BookV2ClientProxy : ClientProxyBase<IBookV2AppService>, IBookV2AppService
{
    public virtual async Task<BookDto> GetAsync()
    {
        return await RequestAsync<BookDto>(nameof(GetAsync));
    }

    public virtual async Task<BookDto> GetAsync(string isbn)
    {
        return await RequestAsync<BookDto>(nameof(GetAsync), new ClientProxyRequestTypeValue
        {
            { typeof(string), isbn }
        });
    }
}
// controller bookStore.books.book

(function(){

abp.utils.createNamespace(window, 'bookStore.books.book');

bookStore.books.book.get = function(api_version, ajaxParams) {
    var api_version = api_version ? api_version : '1.0';
    return abp.ajax($.extend(true, {
    url: abp.appPath + 'api/BookStore/Book' + abp.utils.buildQueryString([{ name: 'api-version', value: api_version }]) + '',
    type: 'GET'
    }, ajaxParams));
};

})();

// controller bookStore.books.bookV2

(function(){

abp.utils.createNamespace(window, 'bookStore.books.bookV2');

bookStore.books.bookV2.get = function(api_version, ajaxParams) {
    var api_version = api_version ? api_version : '2.0';
    return abp.ajax($.extend(true, {
    url: abp.appPath + 'api/BookStore/Book' + abp.utils.buildQueryString([{ name: 'api-version', value: api_version }]) + '',
    type: 'GET'
    }, ajaxParams));
};

bookStore.books.bookV2.getAsyncByIsbn = function(isbn, api_version, ajaxParams) {
    var api_version = api_version ? api_version : '2.0';
    return abp.ajax($.extend(true, {
    url: abp.appPath + 'api/BookStore/Book/' + isbn + '' + abp.utils.buildQueryString([{ name: 'api-version', value: api_version }]) + '',
    type: 'GET'
    }, ajaxParams));
};

})();

Changing version manually

If an application service class supports multiple versions. You can inject ICurrentApiVersionInfo to switch versions in C#.

var currentApiVersionInfo = _abpApplication.ServiceProvider.GetRequiredService<ICurrentApiVersionInfo>();
var bookV4AppService = _abpApplication.ServiceProvider.GetRequiredService<IBookV4AppService>();
using (currentApiVersionInfo.Change(new ApiVersionInfo(ParameterBindingSources.Query, "4.0")))
{
    book = await bookV4AppService.GetAsync();
    logger.LogWarning(book.Title);
    logger.LogWarning(book.ISBN);
}

using (currentApiVersionInfo.Change(new ApiVersionInfo(ParameterBindingSources.Query, "4.1")))
{
    book = await bookV4AppService.GetAsync();
    logger.LogWarning(book.Title);
    logger.LogWarning(book.ISBN);
}

We have made a default version in the JS proxy. Of course, you can also manually change the version.


bookStore.books.bookV4.get("4.0") // Manually change the version.
//Title: Mastering ABP V4.0

bookStore.books.bookV4.get() // The latest supported version is used by default.
//Title: Mastering ABP V4.1

Auto API Controller

public override void PreConfigureServices(ServiceConfigurationContext context)
{
    PreConfigure<AbpAspNetCoreMvcOptions>(options =>
    {
        //2.0 Version
        options.ConventionalControllers.Create(typeof(BookStoreWebAppModule).Assembly, opts =>
        {
            opts.TypePredicate = t => t.Namespace == typeof(BookStore.Controllers.ConventionalControllers.v2.TodoAppService).Namespace;
            opts.ApiVersions.Add(new ApiVersion(2, 0));
        });

        //1.0 Compatibility version
        options.ConventionalControllers.Create(typeof(BookStoreWebAppModule).Assembly, opts =>
        {
            opts.TypePredicate = t => t.Namespace == typeof(BookStore.Controllers.ConventionalControllers.v1.TodoAppService).Namespace;
            opts.ApiVersions.Add(new ApiVersion(1, 0));
        });
    });
}

public override void ConfigureServices(ServiceConfigurationContext context)
{
    var preActions = context.Services.GetPreConfigureActions<AbpAspNetCoreMvcOptions>();
    Configure<AbpAspNetCoreMvcOptions>(options =>
    {
        preActions.Configure(options);
    });

    // Show neutral/versionless APIs.
    context.Services.AddTransient<IApiControllerFilter, NoControllerFilter>();
    context.Services.AddAbpApiVersioning(options =>
    {
        options.ReportApiVersions = true;
        options.AssumeDefaultVersionWhenUnspecified = true;

        options.ConfigureAbp(preActions.Configure());
    });

    Configure<AbpAspNetCoreMvcOptions>(options =>
    {
        options.ChangeControllerModelApiExplorerGroupName = false;
    });
}

Swagger/VersionedApiExplorer


public override void ConfigureServices(ServiceConfigurationContext context)
{
    // Show neutral/versionless APIs.
    context.Services.AddTransient<IApiControllerFilter, NoControllerFilter>();
    context.Services.AddAbpApiVersioning(options =>
    {
        options.ReportApiVersions = true;
        options.AssumeDefaultVersionWhenUnspecified = true;
    }).AddApiExplorer(options => {
        // add the versioned api explorer, which also adds IApiVersionDescriptionProvider service
        // note: the specified format code will format the version as "'v'major[.minor][-status]"
        options.GroupNameFormat = "'v'VVV";

        // note: this option is only necessary when versioning by url segment. the SubstitutionFormat
        // can also be used to control the format of the API version in route templates
        options.SubstituteApiVersionInUrl = true;
    });

    context.Services.AddTransient<IConfigureOptions<SwaggerGenOptions>, ConfigureSwaggerOptions>();

    context.Services.AddAbpSwaggerGen(
        options =>
        {
            // add a custom operation filter which sets default values
            options.OperationFilter<SwaggerDefaultValues>();

            options.CustomSchemaIds(type => type.FullName);
        });

    Configure<AbpAspNetCoreMvcOptions>(options =>
    {
        options.ChangeControllerModelApiExplorerGroupName = false;
    });
}

public override void OnApplicationInitialization(ApplicationInitializationContext context)
{
    var app = context.GetApplicationBuilder();
    var env = context.GetEnvironment();

    if (env.IsDevelopment())
    {
        app.UseDeveloperExceptionPage();
    }
    else
    {
        app.UseErrorPage();
        app.UseHsts();
    }

    app.UseHttpsRedirection();
    app.UseStaticFiles();
    app.UseRouting();
    app.UseAbpRequestLocalization();

    app.UseSwagger();
    app.UseAbpSwaggerUI(
        options =>
        {
            var provider = app.ApplicationServices.GetRequiredService<IApiVersionDescriptionProvider>();
            // build a swagger endpoint for each discovered API version
            foreach (var description in provider.ApiVersionDescriptions)
            {
                options.SwaggerEndpoint($"/swagger/{description.GroupName}/swagger.json", description.GroupName.ToUpperInvariant());
            }
        });

    app.UseConfiguredEndpoints();
}

Custom multi-version API controller

ABP will not affect to your APIs, you can freely implement your APIs according to the Microsoft's documentation.
