- #3122 and #3123 (5 of 5)
- avoid concatenating values and wrapping them in an `HtmlString`
- switch from `string.Format()` to `AppendHtml()` in `LinkTagHelper`
- simplify `RazorPage` and `TagHelperContentExtensions` e.g. don't use a `TagHelperContentWrapperTextWriter`
- add some special cases in `UrlResolutionTagHelper`
- add `TagBuilder` and `StringHtmlContent` special cases to avoid `StringWriter` use when value is an `HtmlString`
- move `HtmlTextWriter` optimizations a bit lower and add missing checks for that type
nits:
- correct comments that incorrectly mention `HtmlString`s
- update comments in `JavaScriptStringArrayEncoder`
- `IRazorViewEngine.MakePathAbsolute()` -> `GetAbsolutePath()`
- set `IsPartial` on all `IRazorPage` instances
- improve consistency of methods in `HtmlHelperPartialExtensions`
- a couple unnecessarily passed `htmlHelper.ViewData`
- add missing tests of these extension methods
- restore parameter checks in `CompositeViewEngine`
- reduce `List<string>` and remove enumerator allocations in `CompositeViewEngine`
nits:
- correct a few comments
- use `<seealso/>`
- #3307
- relative paths are now supported in `View()` calls from components and view components,
`Html.PartialAsync()` and similar calls, and `RazorPage.Layout` settings.
- support absolute paths, relative paths, and view location lookups consistently / everywhere
- support view paths in `TemplateRenderer` e.g. passing an absolute path to `Html.EditorFor()`
- take a big swing at the `IRazorViewEngine` and `IViewEngine` interfaces
- split lookups (view names) from navigation (view paths)
- remove `Partial` separation; use parameters to set `IsPartial` properties
- correct `ViewContext` copy constructor and add unit test
- extend unit tests to cover relative paths
- fix existing tests to handle newly-required extension in an absolute path
- add functional test that chains relative paths
nits:
- remove some YOLO line wrapping
- `""` -> `string.Empty`
- wrong fix especially now that test encoders work as expected
- touch up `HtmlHelperTest` and `RazorViewTest` since test encoders are now consistent
- remove references to old `Microsoft.Extensions.WebEncoders.Testing` package
This reverts commit a9d5876cd9.
- but leave `FormTagHelperTest` and `ValidationMessageTagHelperTest` cleanup alone
nit: use `string.Empty` in `HtmlHelperLinkGenerationTest`
- #2994
- Affects both HtmlHelper and TagHelper scenarios
- Checkboxes not enclosed in a form will generate inline hidden tags
- Added necessary properties to FormContext
- Added some functional and unit tests
Improves authoring experience when using TagBuilder by taking advantage of
IHtmlContentBuilder an its extension methods.
TagBuilder.InnerHtml is no longer settable.
- #2992
- use new properties to replace common helper methods
- still a few `Nullable.GetUnderlyingType()` calls
- creating `ModelMetadata` or sites lacking `ModelMetadata` access e.g. `ModelBindingHelper.ConvertTo()`
- Making TagRenderMode a property in TagBuilder.
- Modifying places where TagBuilder is used to suit the new model.
- This reduces space occupied by a normal application by 11.8%.
- Making TagBuilder's InnerHtml an IHtmlContent.
- Delay encoding until the content is written.
- Moving BufferedHtmlContent to Common cos it is used in aspnet/Razor also.
- Changing GenerateOption to take in a string and create StringHtmlContent.
- This reduces the space used by around 13%.
- Changing HtmlHelper and HelperResult to implement IHtmlContent.
- Introducing BufferedHtmlContent.
- Making RazorPage handle only IHtmlContent and clearing out other types.
- Making StringCollectionTextWriter use BufferedHtmlContent so that it can be returned where necessary.
- Updating places which involve Write/Copy to pass in encoders.
- The encoders are currently not being used during write. But when HtmlString is modified to carry encode metadata, the encoder can be used for writing. This is a perf optimization and hence not a part of this change.
- Making TagHelperContent implement IHtmlContent.
