Iam new to MVC. I am using Code first way.I am inserting data at UI which is linked ViewModel to multiple table like Customer class,Address Class,etc.My viewmodel properties are not same in all the reflecting table, For eg.
public class CustDetVM
{ combined properties of all entity object }
public class Customer
{
[Key]
public string ID { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
}
public class Address
{
[Key]
public string ID { get; set; }
public string A_Line1 { get; set; }
}
public class User
{
[Key]
public string ID { get; set; }
public string U_Group { get; set; }
}
I am adding data from my viewmodel to model. I am using three table to add data from viewmodel.
var query={// code removed for ..
code is debugged properly and storing in query
parameter.}
foreach(var data in query) //used debugger(breakpoint) here
{
db.Customer.Persist().InsertOrUpdate(data);//used debugger(breakpoint) here
}
db.SaveChanges();///used debugger(breakpoint) here not comming to this point and no error it is showing .
My mapping config is below
Mapper.Initialize(cfg =>
{
cfg.CreateMap<CustDetVM, Customer>()
.ReverseMap();
cfg.CreateMap<CustDetVM, Address>()
.ReverseMap();
});
What I am missing any help will be great for me.

I'm having trouble understanding how to implement a ViewModel in Asp.net MVC, I have the following tables:
Form
ID, Data
Report
ID, FormID, Owner, Category, Status, SubmissionDate
ReportValues
ID, ReportID, Title, Value
I'm looking for a way to display and edit Report and ReportValues in the one ViewModel where ReportValues.ReportID = Report.ID
ReportValues will have multiple entries that relate to a Report.
I have had a look at similiar questions on here and tried following a tutorial ( http://techfunda.com/howto/262/list-data-using-viewmodel ) and coming up empty handed.
If you need any more information let me know and thanks in advance for any replies!
Your View Model is nothing more than a class. You can solve this many ways, but here's an example.
Create your 3 classes like you normally would.
public class Form
{
public int Id { get; set; }
public string Data { get; set; }
}
public class ReportValues
{
public int Id { get; set; }
public int ReportId { get; set; }
public string Title { get; set; }
public string Value { get; set; }
}
public class Report
{
public int Id { get; set; }
public int FormId { get; set; }
public string Owner { get; set; }
public string Category { get; set; }
public string Status { get; set; }
public DateTime SubmissionDate { get; set; }
}
Then, create your ViewModel class to include the three above classes like this.
public class ReportViewModel
{
public Form Form { get; set; }
public ReportValues ReportValues { get; set; }
public Report Report { get; set; }
}
In your view you can access your three classes and their properties as you would in your controller. Model.Form.Id
Depending on your data types, ReportValues will likely be a property of Report, but that's entirely up to your data structure. You will need to populate the classes using whatever method you want (Entity Framework, ADO, etc.) before you can pass them to your view and use them.
My Model class is below:
I have three classes two of them are partial class and one is simple class.......
[MetadataType(typeof(RegistrationMetaData))]
public partial class Registration
{
}
public class RegistrationMetaData
{
public string Id { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public string Username { get; set; }
public virtual ICollection<Images> Images { get; set; }
}
[MetadataType(typeof(ImagesMetaData))]
public partial class Images
{
}
public class ImagesMetaData
{
public string id { get; set; }
public string stuid { get; set; }
public string stuimg1 { get; set; }
public virtual ICollection<Registration> Registrations { get; set; }
}
public class EmployeeViewModel
{
public string Name { get; set; }
public string stuimg1 { get; set; }
}
public class NotificationViewModel
{
public Registration registration { get; set; }
public Notification notification { get; set; }
public IEnumerable<EmployeeViewModel> EmployeeViewModel { get; set; }
public Images images { get; set; }
}
Then I have used the below code in controller class to fetch Images record with foreign key in registration table.
IEnumerable<EmployeeViewModel> model1 = null;
model1 = (from e in db.Registrations
join j in db.Images on e.Id equals j.stuid
where e.Email == Email
select new EmployeeViewModel
{
Name = e.Name,
stuimg1 = j.stuimg1
}).ToList();
var mixmodel = new NotificationViewModel
{
EmployeeViewModel = model1
};
return View(mixmodel);
Atlast my view page is like this:-
#model IEnumerable<Amar.Models.NotificationViewModel>
#foreach (var item in Model)
{
#item.EmployeeViewModel.stuimg1
}
But I am getting an error
System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable' does not contain a definition for 'stuimg1' and no extension method 'stuimg1' accepting a first argument of type 'System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
I have gone through debugging my code is fine till controller page...but from view page the values are not showing.I think there is some little mistake i have made...
Please someone help me..I am trying to solve this problem since 2 weeks....
I want to fetch data from one more class on the same view page thats why I am using NotificationViewModel class.
return View(mixmodel);
Your view is expecting a type of IEnumerable<NotificationViewModel> but mixmodel is just a NotificationViewModel
I'm not seeing what you are achieving by having this additional class 'NotificationViewModel'. If your view were to be changed to expect an IEnumerable<EmployeeViewModal> you could pass in model1 directly.
You could then change your view to:
#foreach (var item in Model)
{
#item.stuimg1
}
If you do indeed need this extra layer of abstraction for some other part of your view then you need to sit and think about what is a a single instance and what is a list. Try drawing it if you're having trouble.
I use Asp.Net MVC, Entity Framework. I have a form it looks like below.
Here, dropdownlist is filled from a table(types). Checkboxes is filled from another table(test). Tables are like below:
public class Types
{
public int TypesID{get;set;}
public string TestName { get; set; }
public string TestExplanation { get; set; }
public int TestTime { get; set; }
}
public class Tests
{
public int TestID{get;set;
public string Name { get; set; }
public string Code { get; set; }
}
public class Types_Tests
{
public int Types_TestsID{ get; set; }
public int TypesID { get; set; }
public int TestsID { get; set; }
public virtual Types Types { get; set; }
public virtual Tests Tests { get; set; }
}
Types_test table is relation table between Types and Tests. When I click Kaydet button, it shuld save type and checked tests. I made this operation using ViewBag, javascript and hdnvalue.I added checked checkboz values to a hdntext. I made saving process like below:
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Index(string drpType, string hdntesttypes)
{
var TypeList = Types.GetAll();
ViewBag.TypesList = new SelectList(TypeList, "Id", "Name");
var testypeList = testTypes.GetAll();
ViewBag.TestTypesList = new SelectList(testypeList, "Id", "TestName");
GenericRepository<TestDisabledTypes> testDisabledRepository = new GenericRepository<TestDisabledTypes>(_context);
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(hdntesttypes))
{
string[] disabletypesArray = hdntesttypes.Split(',');
using (TransactionScope trns = new TransactionScope())
{
for (int i = 0; i < disabletypesArray.Length; i++)
{
Test_Types types = new Test_Types ();
types.TestTypesID = Convert.ToInt32(disabletypesArray[i]);
types.TypesID = Convert.ToInt32(drpType);
testDisabledRepository.Insert(types);
}
trns.Complete();
}
}
return View();
}
It wokrs. But I search better solution for this process. Can someone give me any idea?
Thanks.
If you don't need additional attributes for your entity class, you don't need create link table.
Just define the following class, and EF will generate the link table for you automatically.
public class Type
{
public int TypesID{get;set;}
public string TestName { get; set; }
public string TestExplanation { get; set; }
public int TestTime { get; set; }
public ICollection<Test> Tests { get; set; }
}
public class Test
{
public int TestID{get;set;
public string Name { get; set; }
public string Code { get; set; }
public ICollection<Type> Types {get;set;}
}
Well, in EntityFramework if you want to create a many to many relation object you need to create new object of "linking" entity. Unfortunately, it is not possible to add first object, add second object and say "Guys, you are in many to many relationships. Are you happy then?" :) You need to create relation object, set appropriate fields in it (I think these are ids of two objects itself) and add it to relation collection (entity) in your model. But before doing so you need to be sure that objects with data you are linking with are already exists in database. Otherwise you'll get an error
Also it's not necessary to create manually transaction because EF does it for you automatically each time you get/save your data
In the MVC 3 i want to display data from two models viz. Student and Enrollment into a single view.
Student model
public class Student
{
[Key]
[DatabaseGenerated(DatabaseGeneratedOption.None)]
public int student_id { get; set; }
public string student_name { get; set; }
public string father { get; set; }
}
Enrollment model
public class Enrollment
{
[Key]
public int enrollment_id { get; set; }
public string rollno { get; set; }
public int student_id { get; set; }
public string registration_no { get; set; }
public date registration_date { get; set; }
}
My ViewModel looks like this
public class StudentEnrollmentViewModel
{
public Student_Info Student_Info { get; set; }
public Enrollment_Info Enrollment_Info { get; set; }
[Key]
public int ID { get; set; }
}
How do I retrieve the data from the two model and assign it to a viewmodel so that I can display it in a view? I am using Repository Design Pattern.
Generally speaking, a controller would be responsible for contacting the model, storing the result set returned in a variable/array/struc that the view would consume. The model and view components/classes would be registered in the controller.
An example:
<event-handler event="display.institutions" access="public">
<notify listener="userInstitutionRights" method="getInstitutionsWithDataRightsNOXML" resultKey="request.institutions" />
<view-page name="userNav" contentKey="request.userNav"/>
<view-page name="userInstitutions" contentKey="request.pageContent"/>
<announce event="assemblePage" />
</event-handler>
Event display.institutions is calling a model component userInstitutionRights and storing the result in a resultKey request.institutions and is including two view pages userNav, userInstitutions where the resultKey is available to each.
You can use DynamicPage, Look into following example
We need to use a Dynamic view page. (More Information)
Follow following steps:
Create DynamicViewPage type
public class DynamicViewPage : ViewPage
{
public new dynamic Model { get; private set; }
protected override void SetViewData(ViewDataDictionary viewData)
{
base.SetViewData(viewData);
Model = ViewData.Model;
}`
}
Your Controller will look like
public ActionResult Account(string returnUrl)
{
LoginModel loginmodel = null;//Initialize Model;
RegistrationModel registrationModel = null ;//Initialize Model;
// Any Extra logic
return View("Account", new
{
Login = loginmodel,
Register = registrationModel
});
}
your View should Inherit from
Inherits="DynamicViewPage"
Now #Model.Login will give you Loginmodel
#Model.Register will give you RegisterModel
It should work as you expected.........
I have a domain 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; }
}
I have a view model (which is a portion of the above model):
public class ListProjectsViewModel
{
public IEnumerable<ProjectStuff> SomeProjects { get; set; }
public class ProjectStuff
{
public int ProjectID { get; set; }
public string Title { get; set; }
public string Slug { get; set; }
public string Content { get; set; }
}
// Some other stuff will come here
}
I have an action controller:
public ActionResult List()
{
// Get a list of projects of type IEnumerable<Project>
var model = m_ProjectBusiness.GetProjects();
// Prepare a view model from the above domain entity
var viewModel = Mapper.Map..........
return View(viewModel);
}
How can I code the mapping '........' with automapper ?
Thanks.
There are two steps.
1) Define a mapping with AutoMapper (this is usually done in some sort of bootstrapper called by Global.asax, etc.)
// since all of your properties in Project match the names of the properties
// in ProjectStuff you don't have to do anything else here
Mapper.CreateMap<Project, ListProjectsViewModel.ProjectStuff>();
2) Map the object in your controller:
// Get a list of projects of type IEnumerable<Project>
var projects = m_ProjectBusiness.GetProjects();
// Prepare a view model from the above domain entity
var viewModel = new ListProjectsViewModel
{
SomeProjects = Mapper.Map<IEnumerable<Project>, IEnumerable<ListProjectsViewModel.ProjectStuff>>(projects)
};
return View(viewModel);
The thing to note here is that you are defining a mapping between Project and ProjectStuff. What you are trying to map is a list of Projects (IEnumerable) to a list of ProjectStuff (IEnumerable). AutoMapper can do this automatically by putting that in the generic arguments as I did above. Your View Model that your view is using is wrapping your list of ProjectStuff, so I just create a new ListProjectsViewModel and do the mapping inside of that.
