How to integrate ButterCMS into your C# application
Integrating the Butter blog engine into your C# app is dead simple. Here's a mini tutorial to get a feel for setting up your blog home and blog post pages.
To display posts we create a simple/blogroute in our app and fetch blog posts from the Butter API. See ourAPI referencefor additional options such as filtering by category or author. The response also includes some metadata we'll use for pagination.
Controllers/BlogController.cs:
public class BlogController : Controller { private ButterCMSClient Client;
private static string _apiToken = "your_token";
public BlogController() { Client = new ButterCMSClient(_apiToken); }
We'll also create an additional route and controller method for displaying individual posts:
[Route("blog/{slug}")] public async Task<ActionResult> ShowPost(string slug) { var response = await Client.RetrievePostAsync(slug); ViewBag.Post = response.Data; return View("Post"); }
The view for displaying a full post includes information such as author, publish date, and categories. See a full list of available post properties in ourAPI reference. We use thePageobject for setting the HTML title and meta description in the<head>tag of the page.
