Accept the Official Hack - Build-Time OpenAPI Detection in .NET 10 Minimal APIs
The article discusses how to configure .NET 10 Minimal APIs to generate OpenAPI documents at build time. It highlights the challenges of determining if the API is running during build time and critiques the official method of checking the assembly name. The author proposes a more stable solution using custom environment names to identify the build time environment.
- ▪It is straightforward to configure a minimal API to produce an OpenAPI document at build time.
- ▪The official method of checking if the API is running at build time relies on the assembly name, which could change in the future.
- ▪The author suggests using a custom environment name to determine if the API is launched during build time.
