Where to handle mapping between DTOs and Entity objects?
Lets say I have controller GET /users/ which returns UserDTO. Where would I do this mapping between User and UserDTO?
- In controller: userService.GetUsers -> transform to UserDTO list -> return list
- in service: Method UserService.GetUsers does the mapping and returns UserDTO list
- in separate service: I have two methods in my service: GetUsers (which returns Entity objects) and GetUsersDTO (which calls GetUsers method and map it)
- anything else?
