This is a crucial enabler for dynamic scenarios. A policy can replace an
endpoint with a *group* of dynamic endpoints which will be disambiguated
by other policies.
This change makes a bunch of random routing classes internal instead of
pubternal. Most of these have no use case and aren't valuable at all
outside of routing code.
The one exception here is that the only way to construct a
`TemplateBinder` in 1.0-2.2 is using a constructor that accepts some
pubternal types. I don't think it's a good idea to just yank this since
the usage is pretty wide.
Instead I added a factory service so you can create this, and marked the
constructor [Obsolete] where these types are touched. We can make the
actual breaking change in the next major release.
Use coventional routes for link generation
This change enables using conventional routes for link generation when
using MVC conventional routes. This change makes MVC link generation
behaviour highly compatible with 2.1.
The way that this works is that we create endpoints for **MATCHING**
using the denormalized conventional route, but we tell those endpoints
to suppress link generation.
For link generation we generate a non-matching endpoints per-route with
the same order value.
I added the concept of *required value any* to link generation. This is
needed because for an endpoint to participate in link generation using
RouteValuesAddress it needs to have some required values. These details
are a little fiddly, but I think it's worth doing this feature
completely.
* Make endpoint middleware explicit
This change makes the endpoint middleware explicit again, and updates
all of the templates.
The other change here is make UseEndpoints be the place where you
register endpoints. This is vital because it puts your code visually at
the point of the pipeline where it executes.
Lastly, I removed support for UseMvc with endpoint routing. This is
causing issues for some security features, and we're moving in the
direction of trying to make the middleware heavy implementation required
in 3.0. There are some issues we won't be able to fix in MVC if we can't
unambiguously know if UseMvc was used or the middleware.
Adds new constraints for checking if a route value is a file or not.
Added a new set of builder methods that specify what it means to be a
'fallback'. This is really similar to what the older SPA fallback routes
do, but this is lower in the stack and directly integrated with
endpoints.
This change introduces some new heuristics to make it easier to use
'page' or other resevered parameter names as parameters in URL
generation.
--
The main change here is to allow the link generation tree to *ignore* a
value passed in to URL generation when it conflicts with an endpoint's
required values.
The main concern of this feature area is "how do we tell whether you are
linking to an action or a page?". Routing attempts to do the right thing
will requiring very little from the user in terms of expressing intent.
In this case, we try to tell the difference between an attempt to generate
a link to an action due to the presence of the 'action' parameter and
absence of the 'page' parameter. This obviously doesn't work when you
want to use 'page' as a non-reserved parameter in an action. The same
case occurs for pages, but users are already used to the idea that
'action' is a reserved word in MVC.
We can loosen this restriction when the value that's supplied for 'page'
is known not to be any existing value of the 'page' route value.
This approach seems somewhat reasonable but has many of the problems inherent
to this area. When it fails (the value you want to use for 'page' causes
a conflict) - it's going to be esoteric and hard to understand.
When a `<Reference>` is named `*.Sources`, set PrivateAssets=All (exclude from generated nuspec) and IncludeAssets=ContentFiles (only consume content files, not .dll's)
Changes:
* Add support for a property, `IsAspNetCoreApp`, in the .csproj file of assemblies which are part of the shared framework.
* Remove unused dependencies
* Remove reference which have become part of 'netcoreapp3.0'
This change enhances our ambient value logic to also deal with required
values. In 2.2 we introduced a 'required values' semantic to allow route
values to appear "to the left" of a route pattern for the purpose of
ambient values copying. This is a complicated way of saying "when you
like to a different endpoint then discard the ambient values".
What we didn't consider is that some ambient values are special (like
area). So basically, we'll allow an ambient value to be used if it's
part of the required values - even if we've already decided to discard
the ambient values.
This is a pretty surgical fix and only affected the desired scenario
based on tests.
-----
I also removed an optimization that I think is broken. I put an earlier
optimization in place that attempted to count ambient values as they
were "seen" to try and avoid some extra copying. This copying loop has a
cost even if it no-ops which is what I was trying to prevent.
Unfortunately since we added 'required values' - it's now possible for
an ambient value to be double-counted, which makes this optimization
incorrect.
- This should allow a more declarative approach to declaring endpoint metadata using the default methods.
- Attributes are applied first and can be overridden imperatively
* Fix#6102 - Intense CPU utilization on page change
The issue here was that every time a Razor Page changed, we would
subscribe an additional time to the endpoint change notifications. This
means that if you tweaked a page 30 times, we would update the address
table 31 times when you save the file. If you were doing a lot of editing
then this would grow to a really large amount of computation.
The fix is to use DataSourceDependentCache, which is an existing utility
type we developed for this purpose. I'm not sure why it wasn't being
used for this already. We're already using DataSourceDependentCache in a
bunch of other places, and it's well tested.
I also tweaked the stucture of this code to be more similar to
EndpointNameAddressScheme. This involved some test changes that all
seemed like good cleanup. The way this was being tested was a little
wonky.
