# Extensions for Carter API by Codebelt

An open-source project (MIT license) that targets and complements the [Carter](https://github.com/dotnet/Carter) API library. It provides a uniform and convenient way of doing API development for all project types in .NET.
Your versatile Carter companion for modern development with `.NET 10`.
It is, by heart, free, flexible and built to extend and boost your agile codebelt.
## Concept
The Extensions for Carter API by Codebelt is designed to bring clarity, structure, and consistency to Carter projects. It provides a focused extension layer for Carter with configurable response negotiation primitives and endpoint metadata helpers for ASP.NET Core minimal APIs.
### Codebelt.Extensions.Carter Negotiator Examples
These are the standalone response negotiator packages that extend the core `Codebelt.Extensions.Carter` package with specific content negotiation capabilities:
#### Codebelt.Extensions.Carter.AspNetCore.Newtonsoft.Json
```csharp
using Carter;
using Codebelt.Extensions.AspNetCore.Newtonsoft.Json.Formatters;
using Codebelt.Extensions.Carter.AspNetCore.Newtonsoft.Json;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Builder;
using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;
var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);
builder.Services.AddNewtonsoftJsonFormatterOptions();
builder.Services.AddCarter(c => c
.WithResponseNegotiator());
var app = builder.Build();
app.MapCarter();
app.Run();
```
#### Codebelt.Extensions.Carter.AspNetCore.Text.Json
```csharp
using Carter;
using Codebelt.Extensions.Carter.AspNetCore.Text.Json;
using Cuemon.Extensions.AspNetCore.Text.Json;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Builder;
using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;
var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);
builder.Services.AddMinimalJsonOptions();
builder.Services.AddCarter(c => c
.WithResponseNegotiator());
var app = builder.Build();
app.MapCarter();
app.Run();
```
#### Codebelt.Extensions.Carter.AspNetCore.Text.Yaml
```csharp
using Carter;
using Codebelt.Extensions.AspNetCore.Text.Yaml.Formatters;
using Codebelt.Extensions.Carter.AspNetCore.Text.Yaml;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Builder;
using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;
var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);
builder.Services.AddMinimalYamlOptions();
builder.Services.AddCarter(c => c
.WithResponseNegotiator());
var app = builder.Build();
app.MapCarter();
app.Run();
```
#### Codebelt.Extensions.Carter.AspNetCore.Xml
```csharp
using Carter;
using Codebelt.Extensions.Carter.AspNetCore.Xml;
using Cuemon.Extensions.AspNetCore.Xml;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Builder;
using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;
var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);
builder.Services.AddMinimalXmlOptions();
builder.Services.AddCarter(c => c
.WithResponseNegotiator());
var app = builder.Build();
app.MapCarter();
app.Run();
```
