Disable Wrapping of Controller Results - aspnetboilerplate

Question

I am currently using v3.2.5 of Abp.AspNetCore.
I am trying to integrate an Alpha package of Microsoft.AspNetCore.OData into the project which is so far looking ok.
However when i try and query the metadata controller http://localhost:51078/odata/v1/$metadata the result is wrapped.
Now this was an issue for the ODataControllers as well, but i could simply add
the [DontWrapResult] attribute.
I dont have direct access to the MetadataController so i am unable to add the attribute. Is there anyway to disable wrapping for an Abp project?
Thanks
Edit
Here is the current ConfigureServices method
public IServiceProvider ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
services
.AddMvc()
.AddJsonOptions(options => { options.SerializerSettings.ReferenceLoopHandling = ReferenceLoopHandling.Ignore; });
services
.AddAuthentication()
.AddCsDeviceAuth(options => { });
services
.AddOData();
//Configure Abp and Dependency Injection
var provider = services.AddAbp<PortalWebODataModule>(options =>
{
//Configure Log4Net logging
options.IocManager.IocContainer.AddFacility<LoggingFacility>(
f => f.LogUsing<Log4NetLoggerFactory>().WithConfig("log4net.config")
);
});
services.Configure<MvcOptions>(options =>
{
var abpResultFilter = options.Filters.First(f => f is AbpResultFilter);
options.Filters.Remove(abpResultFilter);
options.Filters.AddService(typeof(ODataResultFilter));
});
return provider;
}

You can implement IResultFilter and set WrapOnSuccess to false:
public class ResultFilter : IResultFilter, ITransientDependency
{
private readonly IAbpAspNetCoreConfiguration _configuration;
public ResultFilter(IAbpAspNetCoreConfiguration configuration)
{
_configuration = configuration;
}
public void OnResultExecuting(ResultExecutingContext context)
{
if (context.HttpContext.Request.Path.Value.Contains("odata"))
{
var methodInfo = context.ActionDescriptor.GetMethodInfo();
var wrapResultAttribute =
GetSingleAttributeOfMemberOrDeclaringTypeOrDefault(
methodInfo,
_configuration.DefaultWrapResultAttribute
);
wrapResultAttribute.WrapOnSuccess = false;
}
}
public void OnResultExecuted(ResultExecutedContext context)
{
// No action
}
private TAttribute GetSingleAttributeOfMemberOrDeclaringTypeOrDefault<TAttribute>(MemberInfo memberInfo, TAttribute defaultValue = default(TAttribute), bool inherit = true)
where TAttribute : class
{
return memberInfo.GetCustomAttributes(true).OfType<TAttribute>().FirstOrDefault()
?? memberInfo.DeclaringType?.GetTypeInfo().GetCustomAttributes(true).OfType<TAttribute>().FirstOrDefault()
?? defaultValue;
}
}
Then, in Startup class, add the filter in ConfigureServices method:
services.AddMvc(options =>
{
options.Filters.AddService(typeof(ResultFilter));
});

Alternative solution; to completely disable WrapResult behavior within the system ( at the Core module registration):
var abpAspNetCoreConfiguration = Configuration.Modules.AbpAspNetCore();
abpAspNetCoreConfiguration.DefaultWrapResultAttribute.WrapOnSuccess = false;
abpAspNetCoreConfiguration.DefaultWrapResultAttribute.WrapOnError = false;
abpAspNetCoreConfiguration
.CreateControllersForAppServices(
typeof(AccessApplicationModule).GetAssembly()
);
WrapOnSuccess and WrapOnError flags can be set to false values.

ABP v6.5 and later
Implement IWrapResultFilter and add it to WrapResultFilters in the module's PreInitialize method.
See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/70947461/how-to-control-response-wrapping-in-abp-on-a-per-route-basis/70955045#70955045 for more details.
Before ABP v6.5
...including ABP v3.2.5 mentioned in the question.
Subclass AbpResultFilter:
using Abp.AspNetCore.Configuration;
using Abp.AspNetCore.Mvc.Results;
using Abp.AspNetCore.Mvc.Results.Wrapping;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.Filters;
using System;
namespace AbpODataDemo.Web.Host.Filters
{
public class ODataResultFilter : AbpResultFilter
{
public ODataResultFilter(IAbpAspNetCoreConfiguration configuration, IAbpActionResultWrapperFactory actionResultWrapperFactory)
: base(configuration, actionResultWrapperFactory)
{
}
public override void OnResultExecuting(ResultExecutingContext context)
{
if (context.HttpContext.Request.Path.Value.StartsWith("/odata", StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase))
{
return;
}
base.OnResultExecuting(context);
}
}
}
Replace AbpResultFilter with it in the Startup ConfigureServices method:
services.PostConfigure<MvcOptions>(options =>
{
var index = options.Filters.IndexOf(new ServiceFilterAttribute(typeof(AbpResultFilter)));
if (index != -1)
{
options.Filters.RemoveAt(index);
options.Filters.Insert(index, new ServiceFilterAttribute(typeof(ODataResultFilter)));
}
});
