Json SerializerSettings

[VikneshSubramaniyan]

Hi Tidyui,

I have faced the some issue. Before using Piranha, I used AddMVC. When I use the AddMVC function, it breaks the Piranha manager function. The code I provided below:

services.AddMvc(options => options.EnableEndpointRouting = true)
.AddNewtonsoftJson(options => options.SerializerSettings.ContractResolver = new DefaultContractResolver());

However, I tried to add internally in

options.UseManager(o =>
{
o.JsonOptions(options =>
{
// I don't know how to add here for JSON serialization
});
});.
Could you please give me an idea?

There seems to be a typo in the official documentation. This would be the correct way to add the options in your Program.cs

builder.AddPiranha(options =>
{

   ...

   options.UseManager(o => {
        o.JsonOptions = (jsonOptions) =>
        {
            jsonOptions.SerializerSettings.ContractResolver = new DefaultContractResolver();
        };
    });

   ...

});

Regards

}

still piranha manger function is breaking ..JSON serialization did not work
