Biarity/Sieve: ⚗️ Clean & extensible Sorting, Filtering, and Pagination for ASP.NET Core (github.com)

I´m trying out Sieve and the rip my app to pieces and use that instead.

Similar to Sieve

https://github.com/Biarity/Sieve Sieve is a simple, clean, and extensible framework for .NET Core that adds sorting, filtering, and pagination functionality out of the box. Most common use case would be for serving ASP.NET Core GET queries.

If you're looking for a library for a REST API, there really aren't very many good ones. I used Sieve as a starting point to write my own because it didn't support the filtering syntax I was required to use. I would definitely not recommend a new person write their own, however.

I also looked at Sieve: https://github.com/Biarity/Sieve but I'm not sure it is 100% hitting what I am wanting. Unless I am just a bork at the end of my day unable to read properly. Any direction in the right area would greatly be appreciated!

For complex queries like this, you don't have a ton of choices. You could use Sieve (https://github.com/Biarity/Sieve) in lieu of your current implementation. I use it specifically in situations to handle filtering/paging/sorting, not as a general way to access data. Most of the time I write an underlying DB view and hook that up to a keyless entity and allow Sieve to do the actual filtering.

📝 "Microsoft REST API Guidelines" [link]

This is a great, thorough and in-depth document from Microsoft: https://github.com/microsoft/api-guidelines/blob/vNext/Guidelines.md

Thing is, I made some researches this morning, and I found nowhere a "data" wrapper, not in Microsoft API best practices [FR] (client is using Microsoft APIs), not in Microsoft API guidelines, not in OpenAPI offical specifications, nowhere in any blog I found this morning.

Microsoft REST API guidelines

I'm working on a web API where I'd like to follow the Microsoft API Guidelines. I thought this would be easy, because surely there would be plenty of libraries out there to support their guidelines, maybe Microsoft even has one out there (I thought). I haven't been able to find any.
