An option would be to add a method in the module you import. So you can then call it to provide the object you want. Here is a sample of the app/main module: import {bootstrap} from ‘…’; import {provide} from ‘…’; import {AppComponent} from ‘…’; export function main(params) { let userIdentityName = params.name; // for … Read more
This is fairly common and there is even a somewhat standard http header for it. It’s called “http method override” and you’ll find some good stuff in this question X-HTTP-Method-Override gives NotFound (404) on ASP.NET Web API
File this under learning something new every day! Typically method name matching is thought of this way. Looking at the WebAPI source, however, there is a branch of logic for fallback.

First, define the mapping. // Old AutoMapper API // Mapper.CreateMap<Person, PersonDto>(); // Current AutoMapper API Mapper.Initialize(cfg => cfg.CreateMap<Person, PersonDto>() ); Then you can use something like this: [EnableQuery] public IQueryable<PersonDto> Get() { // Old AutoMapper API // return this.dbContext.Persons.Project().To<PersonDto>(); // New AutoMapper API return this.dbContext.Persons.ProjectTo<PersonDto>(); } Edit 04/2019: Updated to … Read more
I found a part of the solution in this blog post: http://leastprivilege.com/2013/10/31/retrieving-bearer-tokens-from-alternative-locations-in-katanaowin/ So I created my own Provider as follows: public class QueryStringOAuthBearerProvider : OAuthBearerAuthenticationProvider { public override Task RequestToken(OAuthRequestTokenContext context) { var value = context.Request.Query.Get(“access_token”); if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(value)) { context.Token = value; } return Task.FromResult<object>(null); } } Then I needed to add it to my … Read more
You could add the following handler to the <handlers> section of your <system.webServer>: <add name=”ManagedDllExtension” path=”api/nav/*/*.dll” verb=”GET” type=”System.Web.Handlers.TransferRequestHandler” preCondition=”integratedMode,runtimeVersionv4.0″ /> This will make all requests containing .dll be served through the managed pipeline. Also notice how I have limited them only to the GET verb to limit the performance impact.
