Description

Made as an exam project for IT Career Module 7 “Software Development” by Tsvetilin Tsvetilov, Stoyan Zlatev and Pavlin Marinov

Stucture of the project

Three-tier architecture

Data Layer

• Code First
• MySql Database
• Entity Framework
• Data Seeding

Service Layer

• Web APIs

  • SendGrid
    Email sending
  • OMDb
    Film data fetching from IMDb
  • Cloudinary
    Uploading user’s images in the cloud

• Template model converting

  • Default service method

    public async Task<FilmData> GetAsync(string id)
    {
        return await context.FilmDatas.FindAsync(id);
    }

  • Model templated service method

    public async Task<TModel> GetAsync<TModel>(string id, Func<FilmData, TModel> mapToModelFunc)
    {
        var film = await GetAsync(id);
        return mapToModelFunc(film);
    }

Presentation Layer

• ASP.NET Core 3.0
• Custom Mapper
  • Default mapping method

    private TToModel MapSimilarProperties<TFromModel, TToModel>(TFromModel fromObject)
           where TFromModel : class
           where TToModel : class, new()
      {
          TToModel model = new TToModel();
          if (fromObject != null)
          {
              PropertyInfo[] props = fromObject.GetType().GetProperties();
              var modelType = model?.GetType();
              foreach (var prop in props)
              {
                  var modelProperty = modelType?.GetProperty(prop.Name);
                  if (modelProperty?.PropertyType?.Equals(prop.PropertyType) ?? false)
                  {
                      modelProperty.SetValue(model, prop.GetValue(fromObject));
                  }
              }
          }
          return model;
      }

  • Mapping Entity model to View model example

    public ExtendedFilmCardViewModel MapToExtendedFilmCardViewModel(FilmData filmData)
      {
          var viewModel = MapSimilarProperties<FilmData, ExtendedFilmCardViewModel>(filmData);
          if (filmData != null)
          {
              viewModel.Id = filmData.FilmId;
              viewModel.Genres = string.Join(", ", filmData.Genre.Select(a => a.Genre.ToString()));
              viewModel.Rating = Math.Round(filmData.Film.Rating, 1).ToString();
          }
          return viewModel;
      }

Unit Testing
