This also fixes#1503.
Currently all model binders except mutable object binder are independent of validation code. The mutable object binder which needs to do some validation ( for scenarios involving [BindRequired] and [BindNever]).
We would be going with an approach where required validaiton happens in input formatters and model binders.
This is needed as validation for value types can best be done at creation time.
Followup PRs:
Introduce support for skipping validation (and not binding) for a particular property/type etc.
This feature allows routing to generate a link when the action that is
being linked-to does not yet exist. See the PR in routing for the actual
implementation changes. This PR just has a simple functional test for the
scenario.
- #524
- add tests of `DropDownList` and `ListBox` HTML helpers
- extend tests of `<select/>` tag helper
- add scenario to a functional test
New `HtmlHelperSelectTest` does not cover everything. In future (see #453):
- use non-`null` `optionLabel` and `htmlAttributes` arguments
- confirm value sources and their priorities
- mock an `IHtmlGenerator` and confirm how it is called
- mock an `IHtmlHelper` and confirm how extension methods call that
- correct typo in 3303286288
- really seal `CachedModelMetadata.Properties`
- make a couple of test methods `public` (!!)
- add Microsoft.AspNet.PageExecutionInstrumentation to Mvc.sln
- remove `<RootNamespace/>`, `<ProjectExtensions/>`, etc. from .kproj files
services
* Added WithControllersFromServiceProvider that replaces the default
controller activator with a service based one.
* Move activation to DefaultControllerFactory
* Modify [Activate] behavior so that it no longer activates services. Use
[FromService] attribute to hydrate services
Fixes#1707
- #1758
- provide the property bag in `ModelMetadata`; seal it in `CachedModelMetadata`
- add unit tests
- include use of `AdditionalValues` in model binding functional test
nits:
- expose `AdditionalValues` as an `IDictionary` though MVC 5 uses `Dictionary`
- seal `ModelMetadata.Properties` collection as well
- cover a few properties previously missed in `CachedDataAnnotationsModelMetadataTest`
- correct two `ModelMetadataTest` method names
This is a major refactor of how IBinderMetadata interacts with model
binders and value providers. We're doing this to support better
extensibility for metadata in ApiExplorer.
You'll notice a bunch of deleted code in DefaultApiDescriptionProvider
that maps metadata marker interfaces to a fixed list of Api sources. This
is replaced now with IBindingSourceMetadata - which also replaces the
hierarchy of marker interfaces. Now user code can create an arbitrary
binding source and have a consistent API for model-binders,
value-providers and full-visibility in ApiExplorer as
well.
Additonally, there's some error checking in place that better enforces the
constraints we already have in the system. IE you can't create a 'greedy'
model binder that uses value-provider data.
Two additional enhancements are planned for followup PRs:
1. Add a BindingSource property to model-metadata. This will remove some
duplication, but I want to delay it because it would touch another 10 or
so files.
2. Add an extensibility interface for our 'special' model binders like the
file binder so these can show up in ApiExplorer as well.
expire files in razor file cache.
Add a functional test to ensure the compiler cache does not get
initialized until the first request to a View.
Fixes#1708
- #439 (3 of 3)
- extended the Validation web site to include use of `[Remote]`
- also confirm operation of the validation actions (which all reject their input)
- #964
- compute `ModelMetadata.Order` based on `[Display]` attribute
- property affects e.g. `@Html.DisplayFor()` generation for complex objects
- also affects order of messages in validation summaries
- test new scenarios involving `ModelMetadata.Order`
- per-property `ModelMetadata` and related tests
- validation and `HtmlHelper` tests
- add `HtmlHelperValidationSummaryTest` (which touches on #453)
- update ModelBinding functional test to show use of `[Display(Order = x)]`
nits:
- move more `NullDisplayText` bits into proper slots (just above `Order`)
- add doc comments for `ComputeNullDisplayText()`
- add more assertions in tests using `ModelStateDictionary.HasReachedMaxErrors`
- remove some trailing whitespace
- avoid `Assert.True()` & `Assert.False()`; split some assertions up
- `""` -> `string.Empty` in affected test classes
- rename "DefaultEditorTemplatesTest~~s~~" class and file to follow guidelines
- rename "ModelBindingTest~~s~~" class and file to follow guidelines
FYI #1888 covers a predictable (or even just stable) order in the UI
- with some `<text>` hacks, generated HTML is almost identical to tag helper version
- attribute order (HTML helpers consistently order alphabetically) is primary difference
- bit more testing, therefore related to #453
nits:
- remove some trailing whitespace
- clean up style in `MvcTagHelperTest[s]` and `MvcTagHelper_HomeController`
- e.g. more init syntax, fewer duplicate variables
- correct "MvcTagHelperTest~~s~~" file / class name
- remove unused `Order.OrderNumber` property in MvcTagHelpersWebSite project
- correct one spelling mistake
This change makes ApiDescription and ApiParameterDescription aware of all
of the new features we built into model binding for enhanced DTO support
(uber-binding).
The main change is that instead of sticking just to the declared
parameters on the action itself, we now traverse model metadata and break
the parameters down based on their logical data source.
This means that a model like the below will yield 3 parameters:
public class ProductChangeCommandDTO
{
public int Id { get; set; }
[FromBody]
public ProductDetails Changes { get; set; }
[FromQuery]
public string AdminComments { get; set; }
[FromServices]
public IProductRepository Repository { get; set; }
}
The 'Repository' will be hidden, as it's not related to user input.
Additionally, we treat different sources differently. In the
above example, 'Changes' is from the body and will be treated as a
leaf-node.
However if you use nested DTOs that are bound from the query string (using
[FromQuery]) or similar, we'll recursively explore to find as much
structure as possible.
This information is combined with data from the route template to give a
much more complete picture than we ever could in the past for parameters,
especially when DTO/Command pattern is used.
- add a couple more exclusions to .gitignore (recent VS additions)
- remove `<ProjectExtensions/>` elements
- update files that don't have the correct output directories
- remove dangling PrecompilationWebSite.kproj file
This is a major change to how we handle the scenario where a controller is
a filter. We want to change the lifetime of the controller object, by
scoping it around action filters and result filters. This means that a
controller class can only implement action filters and result filters.
To implement #384 - we're creating a delegating filter class
'ControllerFilter' which will forward calls to the implementation of the
controller. This is discovered in the controller model and added to the
filter collection. This filter is removable as an opt-out of this feature.
The ControllerFilter only implements action filter and result filter, so
the new restriction about filter types on Controller is in place. A future
change will move the instantiation of the controller to after resource
filters.
This change adds support for our three-valued logic to the default value
handling part of the MutableObjectModelBinder.
The issue is that we want to look up a default value when a 'greedy' model
binder returns true but doesn't find a value.
We also don't want to call the property setter unless there is:
1). A value from model binding OR
2). A default value
- part II of #1253
- an expected case in template .cshtml files
- expression has name `""`; led to `ArgumentException` in `ModelExpression`
- test `@Model` and `@model.Property` in unit and functional tests
- update baselines to match
nits:
- remove a few unecessary `@`s in .cshtml files
- correct field names & ids in ProductList.cshtml (`foreach` confuses MVC)
- led to correct valiation attributes as well
- part I of #1253 using new Razor capabilities
- update baselines to match latest code generation
- use new `CodeBuilderContext` and `TagHelperAttributeValueCodeRenderer` signatures
- test complex expressions in bound non-string attribute values
See #1695 for a detailed explanation. This change builds support into the
system for the case that a model binder returns true without setting a
value for the Model.
In this case, validation will be skipped if it's a top-level object.
Note that explicitly setting null will still run validation.
This is a demonstration of how to inject an IRouter in between traditional
routes and MVC's handler. This allows you to accomplish a variety of
things that were possible with WebAPIs handlers, but inside the routing
system.
The example here turns a header representing the user into a locale, which
is used to select a controller. You could do other things like reject the
route match or change link generation.
There is one subtle project change here, to allow the same to be possible
for attribute routing, we need to create the attribute route after running
the user's routing configuration code.
- Support for binding posted file to type IFormFile
- Support for multipart/form-data in FormValueProviderFactory
- Updated Mvc Sample
- Added relevant unit and functional tests
- #1766
- use `ReplaceCultureAttribute` to avoid `CultureReplacer` thread consistency checks
- also update test expectations to match new formats
nit: use `UseMiddleware()` extension method rather than `app.Use()`
1) A few `<input/>` tag helpers in a partial view invoked (`@Html.PartialAsync()`) in a loop within a `@for` inside an `using @Html.BeginForm()` block.
2) A custom template e.g. EditorTemplates/MyType.cshtml containing a mix of `<input/>`, `<select/>`, and various input HTML helpers invoked (`@Html.Editor[For]()`) in a loop within a `@for` inside an `using @Html.BeginForm()` block.
3) `<select/>` tag helpers with an `using @Html.BeginForm()` block
4) HTML helpers in the <form/> tag helper
This is a new filter stage that surrounds the existing model binding,
action, and result parts of the pipeline. Resource Filters run after
Authorization Filters.
The other major change is to support one of the primary scenarios for
Resource Filters. We want a filter to be able to modify the inputs the
model binding (formatters, model binders, value providers, etc) -- this
means that those changes need to be held on a context object and preserved
so that they can be used in the controller.
So, IActionBindingContextProvider is removed - the ActionBindingContext
will be created by the invoker. For now it will be part of the action
context.
- StyleCop working again (handles C# 6.0 additions) though only locally for me
- disable some new rules:
- ConstFieldNamesMustBeginWithUpperCaseLetter
- InstanceReadonlyElementsMustAppearBeforeInstanceNonReadonlyElements
- StaticReadonlyElementsMustAppearBeforeStaticNonReadonlyElements
- StaticReadonlyFieldsMustBeginWithUpperCaseLetter
- PrefixCallsCorrectly
- correct remaining violations
- lots of long lines for example
- use more `var`; some manual updates since StyleCop doesn't check seemingly-unused blocks
nit: remove new trailing whitespace (was paranoid about adding it w/ fixes)
The ParameterModel and ParameterDescriptor have had a notion of
optionality for a while now, even though all parameters are treated as
'optional' in MVC.
This change removes these settings. Optionality for overloading in webapi
compat shim is reimplemented via a new binder metadata.
