Entity is:
public partial class Persons
{
public int Id { get; set; }
public string? Name { get; set; }
public string? Surname { get; set; }
public string? Number { get; set; }
public string? Address { get; set; }
public string? PublicId { get; set; }
public string? FatherName { get; set; }
public string? MotherName { get; set; }
}
Also Model is:
public partial class OnlyPrivateProp
{
public int Id { get; set; }
public string? Name { get; set; }
public string? Surname { get; set; }
}
And controller:
public class DemoController : Controller
{
_context c;
public DemoController(_context c)
{
this.c = c;
}
public IActionResult Index()
{
ET model= new ET();
var select = ..............
return View();
}
}
I dont want to use all data to display only three colunms. So I defined a model has three prop. But I cant pass data to model and cant select data and cant send controller.
You could create different ViewModel for different Views
The entities models are mapped to the tables in your database,you could check the documents related with EFCore
For your requirement,you could fill the viewmodel and pass the value to your View as below:
[Table("SomeTable")]
public class SomeEntity
{
public int Id { get; set; }
public string Prop1 { get; set; }
public string Prop2 { get; set; }
public string Prop3 { get; set; }
...........
}
public class ViewModel
{
public string Prop1 { get; set; }
public string Prop3 { get; set; }
}
public IActionResult SomeAction()
{
...........
var vmlist = _context.SomeEntity.Select(x => new ViewModel{ Prop1 = x.Prop1, Prop3 = x.Prop3 }).ToList();
return View(vmlist);
}
And the documents related with MVC

This will be a long question, sorry. But it was necessary to unravel the logic.
This entity has all columns in DB:
public partial class Institution
{
public int? Id { get; set; }
public string? District { get; set; }
public string? InstitutionCode { get; set; }
public string? InstitutionName { get; set; }
public string? DemolitionStatus { get; set; }
public string? ReinforcementStatus { get; set; }
public string? BuildingOwnerStatus { get; set; }
public string? BuildingOwnerInstitution { get; set; }
public string? ClosureStatus { get; set; }
public string? ActivityStatus { get; set; }
public string? ETStatus { get; set; }
public int? ETPhase1 { get; set; }
public int? ETPhase2 { get; set; }
public int? ETPhase3 { get; set; }
public string? InfrastructureStatus { get; set; }
public string? InfrastructureScope { get; set; }
public string? InfrastructureInfo { get; set; }
public string? InfrastructureScopeOut { get; set; }
public string? IAccessStatus { get; set; }
public string? IAccessType { get; set; }
public string? ComputerClassStatus { get; set; }
public int? ComputerClassNumber { get; set; }
public int? PCNumber { get; set; }
public string? ComputerClassScope { get; set; }
public int? ETNeed { get; set; }
}
I have defined a model for columns containing ET so that all columns are not processed since I will only show the user data related to ET.
public class ETModel
{
public int? Id { get; set; }
public string? District { get; set; }
public string? InstitutionCode { get; set; }
public string? InstitutionName { get; set; }
public string? ActivityStatus { get; set; }
public string? ETStatus { get; set; }
public int? ETPhase1 { get; set; }
public int? ETPhase2 { get; set; }
public int? ETPhase3 { get; set; }
public int? ETNeed { get; set; }
}
Then, I defined a view model with a member of the list type, as I will return two lists to the user. I edited this view model to ETmodel.
public class ETListVM
{
public List<ETModel> ETyes { get; set; }
public List<ETModel> ETnone { get; set;}
}
I instantiated the view model in the controller. I have defined two variables of list type. But I'm having trouble filling out these lists. I can fill it with the Institutions entity, but this time I'm getting away from my purpose. I am using all columns. My goal is to use less resources using the ETModel.
public IActionResult Index(string district)
{
ETListVM vm= new ETListVM();
var ETyesList = c.**XXX**
.Where(p => p.District == district && p.ETStatus == "yes")
.ToList();
var ETnoneList = c.**XXX**
.Where(p => p.District == district && p.ETStatus == "none")
.ToList();
vm.ETyes = ETyesList;
vm.ETnone = ETnoneList;
return View();
}
If I write the Institutions entity where I specified as XXX, it works, but it does not accept the ETModel I want to use. Thank you for your patience and help.
Note: It only works if I define a new entity with related properties, but this time ETModel becomes meaningless.
You can't directly match two different models, you need to configure the mapping.
For example, you can use AutoMapper:
First, Install AutoMapper.Extensions.Microsoft.DependencyInjection NuGet Package and register it:
builder.Services.AddAutoMapper(typeof(Program));
Then, Create a class inherited from Profile to determine the mapping relationship:
public class UserProfile: Profile
{
public UserProfile()
{
CreateMap<Institution, ETModel>();
}
}
And in controller:
public IActionResult Index(string district)
{
ETListVM vm = new ETListVM();
var ETyesList = _context.Institution.Where(p => p.District == district && p.ETStatus == "yes").ToList();
var ETnoneList = _context.Institution.Where(p => p.District == district && p.ETStatus == "none").ToList();
List<ETModel> ETyes = new List<ETModel>();
ETyes = _mapper.Map<List<ETModel>>(ETyesList);
List<ETModel> ETnone = new List<ETModel>();
ETnone = _mapper.Map<List<ETModel>>(ETnoneList);
vm.ETyes = ETyes;
vm.ETnone = ETnone;
return View();
}
Relatively new to MVC and can't figure out how to pass data from multiple models into a single view. I know I need to use a view model, but I can't figure out what to do in the controller.
Models:
public class Child
{
[Key, DatabaseGenerated(DatabaseGeneratedOption.None)]
public int ChartNumber { get; set; }
[Display(Name = "First Name")]
public string FirstName { get; set; }
[Display(Name = "Last Name")]
public string LastName { get; set; }
public string City { get; set; }
public string State { get; set; }
[Display(Name = "Zip Code")]
public int ZipCode { get; set; }
public string Ethnicity { get; set; }
public string Referral { get; set; }
[Display(Name = "Recommended Re-evaluation")]
public bool ReEval { get; set; }
[Display(Name = "Hearing Aid Candidate")]
public bool HaCandidate { get; set; }
[Display(Name = "Fit With Hearing Aid")]
public bool FitHa { get; set; }
public virtual List<ChildEval> ChildEvals { get; set; }
}
public class ChildEval
{
[Key]
public int ChildEvalId { get; set; }
public DateTime Date { get; set; }
public int PtaRight { get; set; }
public int PtaLeft { get; set; }
public int UnaidedSiiRight { get; set; }
public int UnaidedSiiLeft { get; set; }
public int AidedSiiRight { get; set; }
public int AidedSiiLeft { get; set; }
public int ChartNumber { get; set; }
public virtual Child Child { get; set; }
}
}
DbContext
public class UnitedContext : DbContext
{
public UnitedContext() : base("name=UnitedContext")
{
}
public System.Data.Entity.DbSet<United.Models.Child> Children { get; set; }
public System.Data.Entity.DbSet<United.Models.ChildEval> ChildEvals { get; set; }
}
ViewModel:
public class ChildViewModel
{
public class Child
{
public string FirstName { get; set; }
}
public class ChildEval
{
public int PtaRight { get; set; }
}
}
ViewModelController? :
public class ViewModelController : Controller
{
//
// GET: /ViewModel/
public ActionResult Index()
{
return View();
}
}
}
I'm stuck on how to create the controller for the viewmodel and how to actually get the data into the view. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Don't have a controller called ViewModelController. Controller is the handler between database and the view. Therefore the name of the controller should tell the programmer what kind of data the controller is controlling. By default, it also indicates the subsite you are in your web application ( ViewModelController would yield http://mysite/ViewModel/ ).
Since you are handling children, I'm calling it ChildrenController for now.
Generally a good idea is to wrap your 2 models into one viewmodel and work with that. In this case Model != ViewModel, model is the database model of the entity while ViewModel is the one that's passed to/from the view.
public class Child
{
public int ID { get; set; }
public string FirstName { get; set; }
public string LastName { get; set; }
}
public class SomeOtherModel
{
public int ID { get; set; }
public int SomeInteger { get; set; }
public int SomeOtherInteger { get; set; }
}
public class ChildViewModel
{
public Child Child { get; set; }
public SomeOtherModel SomeOtherModel { get; set; }
public ChildViewModel(Child child, SomeOtherModel s)
{
Child = child;
SomeOtherModel = s;
}
}
In your controller
public class ChildrenController : Controller
{
//
// GET: /Children/
public ActionResult Index()
{
Child child = /*Fetch the child from database*/;
SomeOtherModel someOther = = /*Fetch something else from database*/;
ChildViewModel model = new ChildViewModel(child,someOther);
return View(model);
}
}
View:
#model ChildViewModel
#Html.EditorFor(model => model.Child.FirstName)
#Html.EditorFor(model => model.Child.LastName)
First of all, I'm new to MVC.
I want to display the properties of the JSON response in a html view.
For example, i want to get the number of page likes from the JSON response and display just the number of likes on a page.
Any help is much appreciated :)
//
// GET: /Facebook/
public ActionResult Index()
{
var json = new WebClient().DownloadString("https://graph.facebook.com/google");
JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<RootObject>(json);
return view();
}
public class CategoryList
{
public string id { get; set; }
public string name { get; set; }
}
public class Location
{
public string street { get; set; }
public string city { get; set; }
public string state { get; set; }
public string country { get; set; }
public string zip { get; set; }
public double latitude { get; set; }
public double longitude { get; set; }
}
public class Cover
{
public string cover_id { get; set; }
public string source { get; set; }
public int offset_y { get; set; }
public int offset_x { get; set; }
}
public class RootObject
{
public string about { get; set; }
public string awards { get; set; }
public string category { get; set; }
public List<CategoryList> category_list { get; set; }
public int checkins { get; set; }
public string company_overview { get; set; }
public string description { get; set; }
public string founded { get; set; }
public bool is_published { get; set; }
public Location location { get; set; }
public string mission { get; set; }
public string phone { get; set; }
public string products { get; set; }
public int talking_about_count { get; set; }
public string username { get; set; }
public string website { get; set; }
public int were_here_count { get; set; }
public string id { get; set; }
public string name { get; set; }
public string link { get; set; }
public int likes { get; set; }
public Cover cover { get; set; }
}
}
}
Your action should pass the object to the view:
public ActionResult Index()
{
var json = new WebClient().DownloadString("https://graph.facebook.com/google");
var root=JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<RootObject>(json);
return view(root);
}
and then in your view you can show whichever property you want:
#Model RootObject
<html>
<head>
<title>Showing properties</title>
</head>
<body>
#Model.likes likes.
</body>
</html>
This is if you use the Razor syntax.
you're missing
return view(root);
You should pass the object back to view to use it.
you can use JsonResult in mvc 4,
public JsonResult ReturnSomeJson()
{
JsonResult result = new JsonResult();
//Assign some json value to result.
//Allow get is used to get the value in view.
return view(result,AllowGet.True);
}
I was looking for a similar solution and I found it to be a bit different:
[HttpGet]
public JsonResult Index() {
// your code
return Json("some result string or value", JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}
This outputs "some result string or value" in your browser when you call this action directly.
Assuming this is a normal action inside a controller that
inherits from Controller class.
Should T be a for example Customer or CustomerViewModel ?
The annotations bound to Mvc namespace are on the ListViewModel so actually I could pass the Customer object. What do you think?
public class ListViewModel<T>
{
[Required(ErrorMessage="No item selected.")]
public int[] SelectedIds { get; set; }
public IEnumerable<T> DisplayList { get; set; }
}
UPDATE
[HttpGet]
public ActionResult Open()
{
IEnumerable<Testplan> testplans = _testplanDataProvider.GetTestplans();
OpenTestplanListViewModel viewModel = new OpenTestplanListViewModel(testplans);
return PartialView(viewModel);
}
public class OpenTestplanListViewModel
{
public OpenTestplanListViewModel(IEnumerable<Testplan> testplans)
{
var testplanViewModels = testplans.Select(t => new TestplanViewModel
{
Name = string.Format("{0}-{1}-{2}-{3}", t.Release.Name, t.Template.Name, t.CreatedAt, t.CreatedBy),
TestplanId = t.TestplanId,
});
DisplayList = testplanViewModels;
}
[Required(ErrorMessage = "No item selected.")]
public int[] SelectedIds { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public IEnumerable<TestplanViewModel> DisplayList { get; private set; }
}
public class TestplanViewModel
{
public int TestplanId { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
}
public class Testplan
{
public int TestplanId { get; set; }
public int TemplateId { get; set; }
public int ReleaseId { get; set; }
public string CreatedBy { get; set; }
public DateTime CreatedAt { get; set; }
public Template Template { get; set; }
public Release Release { get; set; }
}
T should ideally be a view model. Having a view model referencing domain models is some kind of a hybrid view model, not a real one. But if you think that in this specific case the domain model will be exactly the same as the view model then you could keep it as well.
I have the following entity model:
public class Project
{
[Key]
public int ProjectID { get; set; }
public string Title { get; set; }
public string Slug { get; set; }
public string Content { get; set; }
public string Category { get; set; }
public string Client { get; set; }
public int Year { get; set; }
// more attributes here...
}
I would like to prepare a view model (specific for my view). Here is the view model:
public class ProjectListViewModel
{
public IEnumerable<ProjectInfos> ProjectList { get; set; }
public PagingInfo Paging { get; set; }
public class ProjectInfos
{
public string Title { get; set; }
public string Slug { get; set; }
public string Content { get; set; }
public string Category { get; set; }
public string Client { get; set; }
public int Year { get; set; }
}
public class PagingInfo
{
public int TotalItems { get; set; }
public int ItemsPerPage { get; set; }
public int CurrentPage { get; set; }
public int TotalPages { get; set; }
}
}
In my controller, I would like to prepare the view model by filling it with 2 different objects:
List of projects
Paging information
Here is my controller:
public ViewResult List(string category, int page = 1)
{
IEnumerable<Project> projectList = m_Business.GetProjects(category, page, 10);
PagingInfo pagingInfo = m_Business.GetPagingInfo(category, page, 10);
// Here I need to map !!
ProjectListViewModel viewModel = .....
return View(viewModel);
}
So how can I proceed in my controller? I know we can use automapper to map from one object to another but here I need to map from two objects into a single one.
Thanks.
You can extend AutoMapper to map multiple objects.
Here is a blog which provides some sample cope.
Then you can use code like this:
var personViewModel = EntityMapper.Map<PersonViewModel>(person, address, comment);
