Controller that worked in ASP.NET Core 2.0:
[Produces("application/json")]
[Route("api/[controller]")]
[ApiController]
public class GraficResourcesApiController : ControllerBase
{
private readonly ApplicationDbContext _context;
public GraficResourcesApiController(ApplicationDbContext context)
{
_context = context;
}
[HttpGet]
public JsonResult GetGrafic(int ResourceId)
{
var sheduling = new List<Sheduling>();
var events = from e in _context.Grafic.Where(c=>c.ResourceId == ResourceId)
select new
{
id = e.Id,
title = e.Personals.Name,
start = e.DateStart,
end = e.DateStop,
color = e.Personals.Color,
personalId = e.PersonalId,
description = e.ClientName
};
var rows = events.ToArray();
return Json(rows);
}
}
in ASP.NET Core 2.1
return Json (rows);
writes that Json does not exist in the current context. If we remove Json leaving simply
return rows;
then writes that it was not possible to explicitly convert the type List () to JsonResult
How to convert to Json now?
In asp.net-core-2.1 ControllerBase
does not have a Json(Object)
method. However Controller
does.
So either refactor the current controller to be derived from Controller
public class GraficResourcesApiController : Controller {
//...
}
to have access to the Controller.Json
Method or you can initialize a new JsonResult
yourself in the action
return new JsonResult(rows);
which is basically what the method does internally in Controller
/// <summary>
/// Creates a <see cref="JsonResult"/> object that serializes the specified <paramref name="data"/> object
/// to JSON.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="data">The object to serialize.</param>
/// <returns>The created <see cref="JsonResult"/> that serializes the specified <paramref name="data"/>
/// to JSON format for the response.</returns>
[NonAction]
public virtual JsonResult Json(object data)
{
return new JsonResult(data);
}
/// <summary>
/// Creates a <see cref="JsonResult"/> object that serializes the specified <paramref name="data"/> object
/// to JSON.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="data">The object to serialize.</param>
/// <param name="serializerSettings">The <see cref="JsonSerializerSettings"/> to be used by

[NonAction]
public virtual JsonResult Json(object data, JsonSerializerSettings serializerSettings)
{
if (serializerSettings == null)
{
throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof(serializerSettings));
}
return new JsonResult(data, serializerSettings);
}
