Part of: Pams

NuGet package dependency

System.Web.Http.WebHost is a NuGet package dependency in Pams.API.csproj that connects ASP.NET Web API to the System.Web hosting pipeline. It routes HTTP requests from the web host to Web API controllers and returns controller responses through the host.

    Host-->>Client: Send HTTP response

Usage

ts
// System.Web.Http.WebHost runs on the server.
// Client code calls endpoints hosted by the ASP.NET Web API application.

async function getPamsData() {
  const response = await fetch("/api/pams");

  if (!response.ok) {
    throw new Error(`Request failed: ${response.status}`);
  }

  return response.json();
}

getPamsData().then((data) => {
  console.log(data);
});

AI Coding Instructions

• Keep the System.Web.Http.WebHost package reference in Pams.API.csproj when the API is hosted through System.Web or IIS.
• Route Web API requests through configured controllers and HTTP routes rather than calling host pipeline types from client code.
• Treat this dependency as server-side infrastructure; JavaScript and TypeScript clients should call API endpoints over HTTP.
• Check compatibility with other System.Web.Http package references before changing package versions or target framework settings.
