Hur man skapar en enkel e-postkonvertering webbAPI i ASP.NET Core

Hur man skapar en enkel e-postkonvertering webbAPI i ASP.NET Core

Skapa en mikroservice eller Web API för e-postkonvertering gör det möjligt för andra applikationer att utnyttja konverteringsfunktionalitet utan att integrera hela Aspose.Email-biblioteket.Detta tillvägagångssätt ger en centraliserad, skalbar lösning som kan tjäna flera klienter, program eller system.Med hjälp av ASP.NET Core och Asposa.email LowCode Converter, kan du bygga en robust RESTful tjänst som accepterar email-filer via HTTP-hämtningar och returnerar omvandlade filer för nedladdning.

Varför bygga en e-postkonvertering API?

En dedikerad e-postkonvertering API erbjuder flera fördelar:

  • Centraliserad bearbetning : Enstaka tjänsten hanterar all konverteringslogik
  • Cross-Platform Access : Alla applikationer kan använda API via HTTP
  • Skalabilitet : Skala självständigt och skala baserat på efterfrågan
  • Technology Independence : Kunder behöver inte .NET eller Aspose.e-postberoende
  • Microservice Architecture : Passar till moderna distribuerade applikationsmönster
  • Resource Management : Centraliserad kontroll över bearbetningsresurser

förutsättningar

Innan du bygger e-postkonvertering API, se till att du har:

  • ASP.NET Core 6.0 eller högre utvecklingsmiljö
  • Visual Studio 2022 eller Visual Studio Code med C#-utvidgningar
  • Aspose.e-post NuGet paket
  • Grundläggande kunskaper om RESTful API design
  • Förstå filen upload/download i web-API

Steg 1: Ställ in API-projektet

Skapa ett nytt ASP.NET Core Web API-projekt:

dotnet new webapi -n EmailConverterApi
cd EmailConverterApi
dotnet add package Aspose.Email
dotnet add package Swashbuckle.AspNetCore

Konfigurera projektfilen (EmailConverterApi.csproj):

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Web">

  <PropertyGroup>
    <TargetFramework>net8.0</TargetFramework>
    <Nullable>enable</Nullable>
    <ImplicitUsings>enable</ImplicitUsings>
  </PropertyGroup>

  <ItemGroup>
    <PackageReference Include="Aspose.Email" Version="24.3.0" />
    <PackageReference Include="Swashbuckle.AspNetCore" Version="6.5.0" />
  </ItemGroup>

</Project>

Steg 2: Skapa e-postkonverterkontrollen

Skapa en omfattande kontroller som hanterar e-postkonverteringsverksamhet:

using Aspose.Email.LowCode;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc;
using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations;

namespace EmailConverterApi.Controllers
{
    [ApiController]
    [Route("api/[controller]")]
    [Produces("application/json")]
    public class EmailConverterController : ControllerBase
    {
        private readonly ILogger<EmailConverterController> _logger;
        private readonly IConfiguration _configuration;
        private readonly long _maxFileSize;
        private readonly string[] _allowedExtensions = { ".eml", ".msg" };
        private readonly string[] _supportedOutputFormats = { "html", "eml", "msg", "mhtml", "mht" };

        public EmailConverterController(ILogger<EmailConverterController> logger, IConfiguration configuration)
        {
            _logger = logger;
            _configuration = configuration;
            _maxFileSize = _configuration.GetValue<long>("MaxFileSize", 10 * 1024 * 1024); // 10MB default
        }

        /// <summary>
        /// Converts an email file to the specified format
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="emailFile">The email file to convert (EML or MSG)</param>

        /// <returns>The converted file for download</returns>
        [HttpPost("convert")]
        [ProducesResponseType(typeof(FileResult), 200)]
        [ProducesResponseType(typeof(ApiErrorResponse), 400)]
        [ProducesResponseType(typeof(ApiErrorResponse), 500)]
        public async Task<IActionResult> ConvertEmail(
            [Required] IFormFile emailFile,
            [FromQuery, Required] string format = "html",
            [FromQuery] string? filename = null)
        {
            var requestId = Guid.NewGuid().ToString("N")[..8];
            _logger.LogInformation("Starting conversion request {RequestId} for file: {FileName}, format: {Format}", 
                requestId, emailFile?.FileName, format);

            try
            {
                // Validate request
                var validationResult = ValidateRequest(emailFile, format);
                if (validationResult != null)
                {
                    _logger.LogWarning("Validation failed for request {RequestId}: {Error}", requestId, validationResult.Message);
                    return validationResult;
                }

                // Create in-memory output handler
                var outputHandler = new MemoryOutputHandler();

                using var inputStream = emailFile!.OpenReadStream();
                await ConvertEmailInternal(inputStream, emailFile.FileName, outputHandler, format);

                // Get converted content
                var convertedContent = outputHandler.GetContent();
                var outputFileName = filename ?? GenerateOutputFileName(emailFile.FileName, format);
                var contentType = GetContentType(format);

                _logger.LogInformation("Successfully converted {RequestId}: {InputFile} -> {OutputFile} ({Size} bytes)", 
                    requestId, emailFile.FileName, outputFileName, convertedContent.Length);

                // Return file for download
                return File(convertedContent, contentType, outputFileName);
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                _logger.LogError(ex, "Conversion failed for request {RequestId}: {Error}", requestId, ex.Message);
                return StatusCode(500, new ApiErrorResponse 
                { 
                    Message = "Internal server error during conversion", 
                    RequestId = requestId 
                });
            }
        }

        /// <summary>
        /// Gets information about supported formats and API capabilities
        /// </summary>
        [HttpGet("info")]
        [ProducesResponseType(typeof(ApiInfoResponse), 200)]
        public IActionResult GetApiInfo()
        {
            return Ok(new ApiInfoResponse
            {
                SupportedInputFormats = _allowedExtensions,

                Description = "Email format conversion API powered by Aspose.Email"
            });
        }

        /// <summary>
        /// Health check endpoint
        /// </summary>
        [HttpGet("health")]
        [ProducesResponseType(typeof(HealthResponse), 200)]
        public IActionResult HealthCheck()
        {
            return Ok(new HealthResponse 
            { 
                Status = "Healthy", 
                Timestamp = DateTime.UtcNow,
                Version = "1.0.0"
            });
        }

        private IActionResult? ValidateRequest(IFormFile? emailFile, string format)
        {
            if (emailFile == null || emailFile.Length == 0)
            {
                return BadRequest(new ApiErrorResponse { Message = "No file provided or file is empty" });
            }

            if (emailFile.Length > _maxFileSize)
            {
                return BadRequest(new ApiErrorResponse

                    Message = $"File size exceeds maximum allowed size of {_maxFileSize / (1024 * 1024)}MB" 
                });
            }

            var extension = Path.GetExtension(emailFile.FileName)?.ToLowerInvariant();
            if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(extension) || !_allowedExtensions.Contains(extension))
            {
                return BadRequest(new ApiErrorResponse 
                { 
                    Message = $"Unsupported file format. Allowed formats: {string.Join(", ", _allowedExtensions)}" 
                });
            }

            if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(format) || !_supportedOutputFormats.Contains(format.ToLowerInvariant()))
            {
                return BadRequest(new ApiErrorResponse 
                { 
                    Message = $"Unsupported output format. Supported formats: {string.Join(", ", _supportedOutputFormats)}" 
                });
            }

            return null;
        }

        private static async Task ConvertEmailInternal(Stream inputStream, string fileName, IOutputHandler outputHandler, string format)
        {
            switch (format.ToLowerInvariant())
            {
                case "html":
                    await Converter.ConvertToHtml(inputStream, fileName, outputHandler);
                    break;
                case "eml":
                    await Converter.ConvertToEml(inputStream, fileName, outputHandler);
                    break;
                case "msg":
                    await Converter.ConvertToMsg(inputStream, fileName, outputHandler);
                    break;
                case "mhtml":
                    await Converter.ConvertToMhtml(inputStream, fileName, outputHandler);
                    break;
                case "mht":
                    await Converter.ConvertToMht(inputStream, fileName, outputHandler);
                    break;
                default:
                    throw new ArgumentException($"Unsupported conversion format: {format}");
            }
        }

        private static string GenerateOutputFileName(string inputFileName, string format)
        {
            var nameWithoutExtension = Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(inputFileName);
            return $"{nameWithoutExtension}.{format.ToLowerInvariant()}";
        }

        private static string GetContentType(string format) => format.ToLowerInvariant() switch
        {
            "html" => "text/html",
            "eml" => "message/rfc822",
            "msg" => "application/vnd.ms-outlook",
            "mhtml" => "message/rfc822",
            "mht" => "message/rfc822",
            _ => "application/octet-stream"
        };
    }
}

Steg 3: Skapa In-Memory Output Handler

Skapa en anpassad utgångshanterare som fångar konverterat innehåll i minne:

using Aspose.Email.LowCode;
using System.Text;

namespace EmailConverterApi.Services
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Output handler that captures converted content in memory for API responses
    /// </summary>
    public class MemoryOutputHandler : IOutputHandler
    {
        private byte[]? _content;
        private string? _fileName;

        public async Task AddOutputStream(string name, Func<Stream, Task> writeAction)
        {
            _fileName = name;
            using var memoryStream = new MemoryStream();
            await writeAction(memoryStream);
            _content = memoryStream.ToArray();
        }

        public void AddOutputStream(string name, Action<Stream> writeAction)
        {
            _fileName = name;
            using var memoryStream = new MemoryStream();
            writeAction(memoryStream);
            _content = memoryStream.ToArray();
        }

        public byte[] GetContent()
        {
            return _content ?? throw new InvalidOperationException("No content has been written to this handler");
        }

        public string GetContentAsString()
        {
            var content = GetContent();
            return Encoding.UTF8.GetString(content);
        }

        public string GetFileName()
        {
            return _fileName ?? throw new InvalidOperationException("No file name available");
        }

        public bool HasContent => _content != null && _content.Length > 0;
    }
}

Steg 4: Skapa responsmodeller

Definiera strukturerade responsmodeller för API:

namespace EmailConverterApi.Models
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Standard error response model
    /// </summary>
    public class ApiErrorResponse
    {
        public string Message { get; set; } = string.Empty;
        public string? RequestId { get; set; }
        public DateTime Timestamp { get; set; } = DateTime.UtcNow;
        public string? Details { get; set; }
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// API information response model
    /// </summary>
    public class ApiInfoResponse
    {
        public string[] SupportedInputFormats { get; set; } = Array.Empty<string>();
        public string[] SupportedOutputFormats { get; set; } = Array.Empty<string>();
        public long MaxFileSizeMB { get; set; }
        public string Version { get; set; } = string.Empty;
        public string Description { get; set; } = string.Empty;
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Health check response model
    /// </summary>
    public class HealthResponse
    {
        public string Status { get; set; } = string.Empty;
        public DateTime Timestamp { get; set; }
        public string Version { get; set; } = string.Empty;
        public Dictionary<string, object>? AdditionalInfo { get; set; }
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Conversion request model for batch operations
    /// </summary>
    public class BatchConversionRequest
    {
        public string OutputFormat { get; set; } = "html";
        public bool ZipOutput { get; set; } = true;
        public string? CustomPrefix { get; set; }
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Batch conversion result
    /// </summary>
    public class BatchConversionResult
    {
        public int TotalFiles { get; set; }
        public int SuccessfulConversions { get; set; }
        public int FailedConversions { get; set; }
        public List<ConversionError> Errors { get; set; } = new();
        public string? OutputFileName { get; set; }
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Individual conversion error details
    /// </summary>
    public class ConversionError
    {
        public string FileName { get; set; } = string.Empty;
        public string ErrorMessage { get; set; } = string.Empty;
    }
}

Steg 5: Lägg till Batch Conversion Support

Utöka drivrutinen för att stödja batchkonversioner:

/// <summary>
/// Converts multiple email files and returns them as a ZIP archive
/// </summary>
/// <param name="emailFiles">Multiple email files to convert</param>
/// <param name="request">Batch conversion settings</param>
/// <returns>ZIP file containing all converted emails</returns>
[HttpPost("convert-batch")]
[ProducesResponseType(typeof(FileResult), 200)]
[ProducesResponseType(typeof(ApiErrorResponse), 400)]
[ProducesResponseType(typeof(ApiErrorResponse), 500)]
public async Task<IActionResult> ConvertEmailBatch(
    [Required] IFormFileCollection emailFiles,
    [FromForm] BatchConversionRequest request)
{
    var requestId = Guid.NewGuid().ToString("N")[..8];
    _logger.LogInformation("Starting batch conversion request {RequestId} for {FileCount} files, format: {Format}", 
        requestId, emailFiles.Count, request.OutputFormat);

    try
    {
        if (!emailFiles.Any())
        {
            return BadRequest(new ApiErrorResponse { Message = "No files provided for batch conversion" });
        }

        if (!_supportedOutputFormats.Contains(request.OutputFormat.ToLowerInvariant()))
        {
            return BadRequest(new ApiErrorResponse 
            { 
                Message = $"Unsupported output format: {request.OutputFormat}" 
            });
        }

        var results = new List<(string FileName, byte[] Content, bool Success, string? Error)>();

        // Process each file
        foreach (var file in emailFiles)
        {
            try
            {
                var validationResult = ValidateRequest(file, request.OutputFormat);
                if (validationResult != null)
                {
                    results.Add((file.FileName, Array.Empty<byte>(), false, "Validation failed"));
                    continue;
                }

                var outputHandler = new MemoryOutputHandler();
                using var inputStream = file.OpenReadStream();
                
                await ConvertEmailInternal(inputStream, file.FileName, outputHandler, request.OutputFormat);
                
                results.Add((file.FileName, outputHandler.GetContent(), true, null));
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                _logger.LogError(ex, "Failed to convert file {FileName} in batch {RequestId}", file.FileName, requestId);
                results.Add((file.FileName, Array.Empty<byte>(), false, ex.Message));
            }
        }

        // Create ZIP archive
        var zipContent = CreateZipArchive(results, request);
        var zipFileName = $"converted_emails_{DateTime.Now:yyyyMMdd_HHmmss}.zip";

        _logger.LogInformation("Batch conversion {RequestId} completed: {Success}/{Total} successful", 
            requestId, results.Count(r => r.Success), results.Count);

        return File(zipContent, "application/zip", zipFileName);
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        _logger.LogError(ex, "Batch conversion failed for request {RequestId}: {Error}", requestId, ex.Message);
        return StatusCode(500, new ApiErrorResponse 
        { 
            Message = "Internal server error during batch conversion", 
            RequestId = requestId 
        });
    }
}

private static byte[] CreateZipArchive(List<(string FileName, byte[] Content, bool Success, string? Error)> results, BatchConversionRequest request)
{
    using var zipStream = new MemoryStream();
    using (var archive = new System.IO.Compression.ZipArchive(zipStream, System.IO.Compression.ZipArchiveMode.Create, true))
    {
        // Add successful conversions
        foreach (var (fileName, content, success, _) in results.Where(r => r.Success))
        {
            var outputFileName = GenerateOutputFileName(fileName, request.OutputFormat);
            if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(request.CustomPrefix))
            {
                outputFileName = $"{request.CustomPrefix}_{outputFileName}";
            }

            var entry = archive.CreateEntry(outputFileName);
            using var entryStream = entry.Open();
            entryStream.Write(content, 0, content.Length);
        }

        // Add error log if there were failures
        var failures = results.Where(r => !r.Success).ToList();
        if (failures.Any())
        {
            var errorLog = string.Join("\n", failures.Select(f => $"{f.FileName}: {f.Error}"));
            var errorEntry = archive.CreateEntry("conversion_errors.txt");
            using var errorStream = errorEntry.Open();
            using var writer = new StreamWriter(errorStream);
            writer.Write(errorLog);
        }
    }

    return zipStream.ToArray();
}

Steg 6: Konfigurera applikationen

Ställ in appen med rätt konfiguration i Program.cs:

using EmailConverterApi.Services;
using Microsoft.OpenApi.Models;

var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);

// Add services
builder.Services.AddControllers();
builder.Services.AddEndpointsApiExplorer();
builder.Services.AddSwaggerGen(c =>
{
    c.SwaggerDoc("v1", new OpenApiInfo
    {
        Title = "Email Converter API",
        Version = "v1",
        Description = "RESTful API for converting email files between different formats using Aspose.Email",
        Contact = new OpenApiContact
        {
            Name = "API Support",
            Email = "support@example.com"
        }
    });
    
    // Include XML comments if available
    var xmlFile = $"{System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().Name}.xml";
    var xmlPath = Path.Combine(AppContext.BaseDirectory, xmlFile);
    if (File.Exists(xmlPath))
    {
        c.IncludeXmlComments(xmlPath);
    }
});

// Configure file upload limits
builder.Services.Configure<IISServerOptions>(options =>
{
    options.MaxRequestBodySize = 50 * 1024 * 1024; // 50MB
});

// Add CORS if needed
builder.Services.AddCors(options =>
{
    options.AddPolicy("AllowAll", policy =>
    {
        policy.AllowAnyOrigin()
              .AllowAnyHeader()
              .AllowAnyMethod();
    });
});

// Add logging
builder.Logging.AddConsole();
builder.Logging.AddDebug();

var app = builder.Build();

// Configure pipeline
if (app.Environment.IsDevelopment())
{
    app.UseSwagger();
    app.UseSwaggerUI(c =>
    {
        c.SwaggerEndpoint("/swagger/v1/swagger.json", "Email Converter API V1");
        c.RoutePrefix = string.Empty; // Swagger at root
    });
}

app.UseHttpsRedirection();
app.UseCors("AllowAll");
app.UseAuthorization();
app.MapControllers();

app.Run();

Steg 7: Konfigureringsinställningar

Lägg till konfiguration i appsettings.json:

{
  "Logging": {
    "LogLevel": {
      "Default": "Information",
      "Microsoft.AspNetCore": "Warning",
      "EmailConverterApi": "Debug"
    }
  },
  "AllowedHosts": "*",
  "MaxFileSize": 52428800,
  "ConversionSettings": {
    "DefaultOutputFormat": "html",
    "EnableBatchConversion": true,
    "MaxBatchSize": 10,
    "TempDirectory": "temp"
  }
}

Steg 8: Lägg till felhantering medelvärde

Skapa global felhantering middleware:

using System.Net;
using System.Text.Json;

namespace EmailConverterApi.Middleware
{
    public class GlobalErrorHandlingMiddleware
    {
        private readonly RequestDelegate _next;
        private readonly ILogger<GlobalErrorHandlingMiddleware> _logger;

        public GlobalErrorHandlingMiddleware(RequestDelegate next, ILogger<GlobalErrorHandlingMiddleware> logger)
        {
            _next = next;
            _logger = logger;
        }

        public async Task InvokeAsync(HttpContext context)
        {
            try
            {
                await _next(context);
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                _logger.LogError(ex, "An unhandled exception occurred");
                await HandleExceptionAsync(context, ex);
            }
        }

        private static async Task HandleExceptionAsync(HttpContext context, Exception exception)
        {
            context.Response.ContentType = "application/json";
            
            var (statusCode, message) = exception switch
            {
                ArgumentException => (HttpStatusCode.BadRequest, exception.Message),
                FileNotFoundException => (HttpStatusCode.NotFound, "Requested file not found"),
                UnauthorizedAccessException => (HttpStatusCode.Unauthorized, "Access denied"),
                NotSupportedException => (HttpStatusCode.BadRequest, "Operation not supported"),
                _ => (HttpStatusCode.InternalServerError, "An error occurred while processing your request")
            };

            context.Response.StatusCode = (int)statusCode;

            var response = new
            {
                message = message,
                statusCode = (int)statusCode,
                timestamp = DateTime.UtcNow
            };

            await context.Response.WriteAsync(JsonSerializer.Serialize(response));
        }
    }
}

// Register middleware in Program.cs
app.UseMiddleware<GlobalErrorHandlingMiddleware>();

Steg 9: Exempel på kundanvändning

CURL Exempel

Konvertera en enda fil:

curl -X POST "https://localhost:5001/api/emailconverter/convert?format=html" \
  -H "Content-Type: multipart/form-data" \
  -F "emailFile=@sample.eml" \
  -o converted.html

Få information om API:

curl -X GET "https://localhost:5001/api/emailconverter/info"

C# kundexempel

public class EmailConverterClient
{
    private readonly HttpClient _httpClient;
    
    public EmailConverterClient(HttpClient httpClient)
    {
        _httpClient = httpClient;
    }
    
    public async Task<byte[]> ConvertEmailAsync(string filePath, string outputFormat = "html")
    {
        using var form = new MultipartFormDataContent();
        using var fileStream = File.OpenRead(filePath);
        using var fileContent = new StreamContent(fileStream);
        
        fileContent.Headers.ContentType = new System.Net.Http.Headers.MediaTypeHeaderValue("application/octet-stream");
        form.Add(fileContent, "emailFile", Path.GetFileName(filePath));
        
        var response = await _httpClient.PostAsync($"/api/emailconverter/convert?format={outputFormat}", form);
        response.EnsureSuccessStatusCode();
        
        return await response.Content.ReadAsByteArrayAsync();
    }
}

JavaScript klientexempel

async function convertEmail(file, format = 'html') {
    const formData = new FormData();
    formData.append('emailFile', file);
    
    const response = await fetch(`/api/emailconverter/convert?format=${format}`, {
        method: 'POST',
        body: formData
    });
    
    if (!response.ok) {
        throw new Error(`Conversion failed: ${response.statusText}`);
    }
    
    return await response.blob();
}

slutsatser

Bygg en e-postkonvertering Web API med ASP.NET Core och Aspose.Email LowCode Converter skapar en kraftfull, återanvändbar tjänst som ger:

  • Centraliserad bearbetning : Enstaka tjänsten hanterar alla e-postkonversioner
  • Cross-Platform Access : HTTP-baserad gränssnitt fungerar med någon klientteknik
  • Skalabilitet : Utveckling och skala oberoende av kundapplikationer
  • Kompletta funktioner : Stöd för flera format, batchbehandling och felhantering
  • Produktion Ready : Innehåller loggning, konfiguration, validering och dokumentation

Denna API-arkitektur gör det möjligt för organisationer att tillhandahålla e-postkonverteringsförmåga som en tjänst, stödja flera applikationer och använda fall samtidigt som man upprätthåller centraliserad kontroll över bearbetningslogik och resurser.
