WEBAPI Support for Text/plain requests

Today encountered a requirement, request to access my API with HTTPS + XML, ordinary webapi is not supported by this request, so do the following code to support

Add a class with the class name Plaintexttypeformatter

 Public classplaintexttypeformatter:mediatypeformatter{ PublicPlaintexttypeformatter () {Supportedmediatypes.add (NewMediatypeheadervalue ("Text/plain")); }     Public Override BOOLcanreadtype (Type type) {returnType = =typeof(string); }     Public Override BOOLcanwritetype (Type type) {returnType = =typeof(string); }     Public Override AsyncTask writetostreamasync (Type type,Objectvalue, Stream writestream, httpcontent content, TransportContext transportcontext) {        using(varSW =NewStreamWriter (Writestream)) {            awaitSW. WriteAsync (value.        ToString ()); }    }     Public Override Asynctask<Object>readfromstreamasync (Type type, Stream readstream, httpcontent content, Iformatterlogger Formatterlogger) { using(varSR =NewStreamReader (Readstream)) {            return awaitSr.        Readtoendasync (); }    }}

Then register the class to Forrmator, (add the following code to the Webapiconfig)

Config. Formatters.add (new plaintexttypeformatter ());

Then do not forget to add the header at the request, otherwise the request cannot be processed

Content-type:text/plain

The following is the request result in fiddler
