Specifying just the name of the file works fine on selfhost or IISExpress. When app is hosted in IIS, Config.json is being searched in the w3wp3.exe's folder path resulting in an exception.
So fixing the path of Config.json by retrieving the application base path from AppDomain.
If the same set of values (those present in config.json) is present in the environment variables
then ones from environment variables be picked up. This will be the antares scenario where the portal variables
flow in as environment variables with a specific prefix.
1. Adding a view component
2. Adding more partial views from the sample and enabled a few of them.
3. Updating Account controller to accomodate all the recent identity changes.
4. Enabling some available Url helpers like Url.Content
5. Adding a ~ to all the scripts and images as this bug is fixed now.
1. Removing copyright text from all files per a code review feedback
2. Adding a cookie based session to the application to retrieve the cart Id.
3. Enabled the Accounts controller as we now have the necessary Http abstractions for User, SignIn, SignOut etc.
4. Changing self hosting scripts to run on coreclr by default.
5. Enabling the layout page on all required views.
6. Adding a favico.ico
7. Renaming the Cart property in the EF context to CartItems as it returns a CartItems list.
8. Uncommenting some code which was previously accessing unavailable APIs. They are available now (but yet to validate them).
For link generation to areas, we need to provide the set of values that
the route could potentially provide.
Basically if we know what action we want to reach, we want to know whether
or not a given route could hit that action before giving it the OK to
generate a link.
For instance a route like '{controller}' couldn't hit an action like
'HomeController:DoACoolThing', since it can never provide a value for
'action'. This makes it possible for WebFX to make the right decision
without changing the behavior of any of the routing constructs. This also
has the side-effect of removing a class of order dependencies in routing
that cause bad links to be generated.
The code that does an 'UPSERT' of seed data on app start was querying
existing instances and attaching as modified of seed instances on the
same context. Now that we track query results this will throw because
the context has two instances of the same entity (same key value).
Swapping to use a temporary context to query existing data.
