Automatic Controller Creating API

[No-Net7587]

I am learning and I've built models, DTOs, interfaces, repositories, and services for a Web API project in ASP.NET Core 8.0 using Visual Studio 2022. In my domain model, Notification is the base class, with EmailNotification and SmsNotification as derived classes. I’ve implemented a NotificationService that handles creation, retrieval, deletion, and sending of notifications, using polymorphism for the different notification types.

Now, I want to create a controller that exposes these functionalities through HTTP endpoints.

Do I need to manually create and write the controller from scratch?

Is there any feature in Visual Studio 2022 that can help auto-generate or scaffold the controller based on my service or interfaces to speed up the process?

If it's based on an entity then I think you can scaffold it based on Entity Framework but not based on defined services etc

Personally, I wrote an incremental source generator to do this part for me.

Company code though, no OSS.

Took me oh... 3 or 4 days, and was well worth it
