How to translate Entity framefork data into json data? I use Angular + Web API.

Answer 1

In App_Start/WebApiConfig.cs add to the Register method

var appXmlType = config.Formatters.XmlFormatter.SupportedMediaTypes.FirstOrDefault(t => t.MediaType == "application/xml");
            config.Formatters.XmlFormatter.SupportedMediaTypes.Remove(appXmlType);

            var jsonFormatter = config.Formatters.OfType<JsonMediaTypeFormatter>().FirstOrDefault();

            if (jsonFormatter != null)
                jsonFormatter.SerializerSettings.ContractResolver = new CamelCasePropertyNamesContractResolver();

in controller

public IQueryable<Order> GetOrders()
        {
            return _db.Orders;
        }

All.
