A REST Web API for managing sports matches and their betting odds, developed as a technical assignment in the span of 3 days.

For the development of this project, the following requirements were requested:

• Use of ASP.NET Core 3.1
• Use of Entity Framework Core
• Use of Microsoft SQL Server
• Creation of an initial EF migration

For the representation of sports matches and their betting odds, the following entity models were to be created:

Match, with properties:

• ID
• Description
• MatchDate
• MatchTime
• TeamA
• TeamB
• Sport (enum with values 1 for Football and 2 for Basketball)

MatchOdds, with properties:

• ID
• MatchId
• Specifier (1, X, 2)
• Odd

Match

MatchOdds

The deliverable would be a functional web service that can run autonomously (or in a container as a plus), with the following features:

• An API controller that implements CRUD functions through the proper use of HTML verbs
• A design / implementation document in the assignee's desired format (Markdown, Word document, Swagger)
• Source code is to be hosted on a public repository from one of the popular version control online services (e.g. GitHub, BitBucket).

Two API controllers have been implemented for the service:

• MatchesController, which is being served on base_url/api/matches
• MatchOddsController, which is being served on base_url/api/matchodds

Both of these controllers support GET, POST, PUT and DELETE operations.

The design / implementation document has been implemented as a Swagger document through Swashbuckle, which can be viewed on base_url/index.html upon running the project successfully.
