[Partly solved ]How do I deploy/configure both an MVC solution and a separate MVC API solution to serve pages/request?
-
I have a .NET MVC website live which also served as a test API - the solution both served standard web pages as well as API calls. I decided that I wanted to separate the website and API so I now have two solutions. I have amended the RouteConfig.cs for the website so that it no longer serves API routes. How do I go about configuring things so that both the MVC website dll and the MVC API dll are accessible? I uploaded the API dll and using postman I could see that the API service was not responding to the requests I sent. I am guessing there is something I need to do with the web.congig or global.asax files that's as far as I have got so far(guessing... and some googling of course...). Thank you for any help or direction in where to look for information - I don't think I have been asking the right question for Google searches so far. Update I have now partly solved this by creating two projects within one solution and referencing the API dll from the main application, including a route mapping for the API within the non API project. It's a bit messy but will do for the moment.
