MovieApi

A REST api for retrieving data about movies and actors.

Uses an Entity framework code-first generated database, where some junction tables have been created automatically, which enables us to use Linq navigational properties. The tables of the databases is explained in the file db.cs, and the data structure of all the tables is contained in the models folder.

The api contains the following endpoints:

api/Actors/id
api/Actors/id/credits
api/movies/id
api/movies/id/credits
api/movies/popular?pageNum=&pageSize=
api/search?key=&pageNum&pageSize
