BlogAPI is a small backend API for a personal blog, built as part of a project from the roadmap.sh learning roadmap. It is written in C# and exposes a set of endpoints for managing blog posts. The README documents the functional requirements directly as a checklist: creating a new post, retrieving a single post, retrieving all posts, and updating a single post are marked as done, while deleting a single post is listed as not yet finished. A blog post is represented with fields for author, content, description, a numeric id, a published date, a summary, a URL friendly slug, a list of tags, and a title. Tags are their own small entity with just an id and a name. The README also documents two data transfer objects used by the API: one for the data sent when creating a post, and one for the data returned after a post is created. The documented endpoints follow standard REST conventions. Creating a post is a POST request to /posts that returns a 201 Created response with the new post's data, including its generated id and slug. Retrieving a single post is a GET request to /posts/{id}, returning either the post data or a 404 Not Found error formatted as a standard problem details response if the id does not exist. Retrieving all posts is a GET request to /posts that returns a list. Updating a post is a PUT request to /posts/{id} that returns the updated post data. Deleting a post is documented as a DELETE request to /posts/{id}, expected to return a 204 No Content response on success or 404 if the post does not exist, though the README marks this feature as still incomplete. The README is focused entirely on documenting the API's data model and endpoint behavior with sample requests and responses. It does not include setup, installation, or run instructions, and does not state a license.
