- #8180
- add an error when binding fails for top-level model
- same case as when MVC creates "default" / empty model i.e. `ParameterBinder` can't detect this
- update `CollectionModelBinder` subclasses and the various providers as well
- controlled by existing `MvcOptions.AllowValidatingTopLevelNodes` option
smaller issue:
- change `ModelBinding_MissingBindRequiredMember` resource to mention parameters too
- #7562 part 2
- add `OriginalModelName` to `ModelBindingContext`
nit: take VS suggestions, mostly to inline collection initialization in `FormFileModelBinderTest`
- #7423
- retry failed inner bindings with alternate syntax in `ModelStateDictionary`
- use property syntax if first attempt tried index syntax and visa versa
- instantiate `ShortFormDictionaryValidationStrategy` with full `ModelState` keys
- can now provide exact `ModelState` keys that `ModelStateDictionary` used in inner bindings
- normalize model names without a leading period in `JQueryKeyValuePairNormalizer`
nits:
- take a few VS suggestions
- #7413 part 2 of 2
- add `ModelMetadata.Name` and `ParameterName`
- use `Name` instead of `PropertyName` in most cases
- update `ModelMetadata.ContainerType` and other property use
- choose using `MetadataKind` almost everywhere; support all possibilties
- usually parameter metadata was possible but not handled
- worst case was one or two potential NREs, especially `ContainerType.*` dereferences
- improve `MvcCoreLoggerExtensions` metadata handling
- add three new debug messages, one for type metadata and two for parameter metadata
- update `ModelMetadata.ContainerMetadata`, `ContainerType` and `PropertyName` doc comments
- no changes needed in Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.ViewFeatures because parameters aren't viewed
nits:
- add missing `TestModelMetadataProvider.ForParameter(...)` method
- remove unused `EmptyModelMetadataProvider` instances in `ModelMetadataTest`
- refactor `ModelValidationResultComparer` out of DataAnnotationsModelValidatorTest`
- take VS suggestions, mostly related to variable inlining and object initializers
This was in the wrong place - JSON formatters have their own options
type already.
Moved the option to MvcJsonOptions and updated the naming + defaults to
reflect our plan.
Also did a bunch of general cleanup on these tests, which were a bit
sloppy.
Updated the naming to follow guidelines, and set the default for 2.0
apps to false. Note that I inverted the naming, which means that I had
to invert the logic in a few places.
Related to issue [Fixes#6858] Changes to MvcOption's settings (SuppressInputFormatterBuffering & AllowBindingUndefinedValueToEnumType) are not taking affect
- #5502
- support thousands separators for `decimal`, `double` and `float`
- add tests demonstrating `SimpleTypeModelBinder` does not support thousands separators for numeric types
- add tests demonstrating use of commas (not thousands separators) with `enum` values
- #6076
- add resources and accessors specifically for the element / parameter cases
- avoid `metadata.GetDisplayName()` where possible
- fill in the `ValidationContext` that `ValidatorObjectAdapter` uses
- e.g. `Validate_NestedComplexType_IValidatableObject_Invalid()` test fails without this
Possible future work:
- improve error message used for `ModelMetadata.IsRequired` elements and parameters
- use something besides the type for `ValidationContext.DisplayName` of elements and parameters
nits:
- trailing whitespace
- use more `out var`
- #4988
- preserve whitespace as the setting demands
- correct previous `string.IsNullOrEmpty()` call to match previous `ValueProviderResultExtensions.ConvertTo()` use
- short-circuit other `string`-to-`string` conversions (as `ValueProviderResultExtensions.ConvertTo()` does)
- correct documentation of `ConvertEmptyStringToNull` properties
- add more tests of these scenarios and remove duplicate `BindModel_ValidValueProviderResult_ConvertEmptyStringsToNull()` test
- #4690
- move `ModelBindingMessageProvider` init from `DefaultBindingMetadataProvider` to `DefaultModelMetadata`
- in addition to avoiding error cases, this removes some boilerplate
- add specific errors to `BodyModelBinderProvider`, `CompilerCache`, `CompositeViewEngine`, `ModelBinderFactory`,
and `ObjectResultExecutor`
- `DefaultRazorViewEngineFileProviderAccessor.FileProvider` now a `NullFileProvider` in empty case
This change simplifies a bunch of code and fits more in line with the
current design of model binding.
Now, a model binder only has to do anything if it was successful.
'return' is enough to indicate failure.
This change renames IPropertyBindingPredicateProvider to
IPropertyFilterProvider. The changes here are mostly renames of
parameters/variables from predicate -> propertyFilter. I did a
find+replace and left the term 'predicate' in some of the docs because it
refers to a predicate in the abstract sense.
This change also simplifies BindAttribute and removes support for type
activation.
This commit introduces application parts as a concept on MVC.
An application part is an abstraction that allows you to expose some
feature or corncern in a way that is decoupled from their underlying source.
Examples of this include types in an assembly, emdeded resources, files on
disk etc.
Application parts are configured during startup by adding or removing them from
the application part manager available as part of IMvcBuilder and IMvcCoreBuilder.
The application part manager provides the ability to populate features from the
list of available application parts by using a list of application feature providers.
Application feature providers are responsible for populating a given feature given a
list of application parts.
Examples of application providers can be a ControllerFeatureProvider
that goes through the list of application parts, sees which one of those parts exposes types,
determines which of those types are controller types, and adds them to a ControllerFeature
that holds a list of all the types that will be considered controllers in the application.
This change no longer suppresses validation for IFormFile and
IFormFileCollection model values. This will allow the use of [Required] on an
IFormFile model, or a custom attribute for validating IFormFileCollection.
These types already have ValidateChildren = false, so we don't recurse
into them.
This change separates model binding into IModelBinderProvider (decides
which binder to use) and IModelBinder (does binding). The
IModelBinderFactory is a new services with coordinates the creation of
model binders.
