.Net Core - Set JsonApiSerializer as Default Setting

Hello Everyone!!

I am really appreciating this library. Great Job. Maybe this is not the right place to ask, but I really dont know.

I am trying to get a global configuration using .NET CORE 2 MVC API.

I can easily convert an object using this code. This is a controller and I am converting and respond using Ok(Json).

        public IActionResult Get([FromRoute]string company)
        {
            var parts = _partService.GetAll(company);

            string json = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(parts, new JsonApiSerializerSettings());

            return Ok(json);
        }

. It Works, but add some backslashes to the JSON due to the duplicate serialization, from the JsonConvert and then from the MVC.

"{\"data\":[{\"type\":\"partdefinitionapimodel\",\"id\":\"2026001632590498180\",\"attributes\":{\"name\":\"Tax

I Tried to look over the internet and could not find any place where I could change globally the JsonSerializerSettings with NET CORE.

I am thinking there is something related to services.AddMvc().AddJsonOption inside Startup class but I really dont know where to look or how to do it.

Thanks in advance for any help!!

Although closed you can achieve something similiar with less lines by going

 services.AddMvc(opt => {
                var jsonApiFormatter = new JsonOutputFormatter(new JsonApiSerializerSettings(), ArrayPool<Char>.Shared);
                opt.OutputFormatters.RemoveType<JsonOutputFormatter>();
                opt.OutputFormatters.Insert(0, jsonApiFormatter);
            });

Does Anyone knows how to setup JsonApiSerializer as the default input serializer on .NET 3.1? No matter how hard I try, I can’t get the objects of my Binding Model to be different from null when sending a JsonApi formatted object.

Thanks
