Is there a service to get the available routes?

[smasherprog]

Net core Odata question:
Is there an available service for getting the routes for Odata similiar to IActionDescriptorCollectionProvider that will provide the basics? I tried to find something like this, but I was unable to.

Assemblies affected

net core beta 2

Expected result

A service that allows me to enumerate the available odata routes.

Additional detail

The reason for this is that I need to build a list of available routes and assign permissions to those routes.

PerRouteContainer.cs has a mapping of all OData routes to their service containers but currently does not contain an enumeration capability. Is this the kind of information you are looking for?

[smasherprog]

Yeah. Just the meta data for each route. Post patch delete. Controller action etc. This is useful because I want to attach permissions dynamically to available routes so I need to get that information similar to how mvc exposes it.

[robward-ms]

We don't have a similar interface. Routing is done dynamically using the routing conventions and routes are re-discovered every time. OData could do better and maybe provide the feature you ask for so I'll mark this as a feature.

I didnt think that routes were discovered each time a url is requested since the information is available at startup. I'd like to offer a PR to build the routes just once at startup but I dont know the codebase well enough :(

thanks for adding it as a feature!
