How to serialize The return value of the controller's actions as JSON

in Startup.cs file, Modify the method ConfigureServices to add dependency injection to it:

public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services) {
    ...
    FSharpCompilerJsonDependencyInjection.AddFSharpJson(services);
}

This configuration means that FSharpCompiler.Json has been integrated into ASP.NET to replace the built-in json serializer.

[<HttpGet>]
member this.action() = 
    ...
    JsonResult data

data will be serialized as json using the FSharpCompiler.Json serializer, which is ASP.NET's serializer.

The Method to read Request.Query

In a controller's actions, The Method to read Request.Query is as follows:

[<HttpGet>]
member this.kvps() = 
    let kvps = this.Request.Query |> Query.toPairs
    ...

where the type of kvps is seq<string*string>.

For example, a request's url query string is:

?foo=bar&baz=[`qux`,`quux`]

The kvps corresponding to the query string are parsed as follows:

["foo","bar";"baz","[`qux`,`quux`]"]
