Allow properties on controllers, Razor Page and Razor Page models annotatted with [ViewDataAttribute]
to populate ViewDataDictionary
Fixes https://github.com/aspnet/Mvc/issues/6525
This change undoes a breaking change introduced by the 2.1 model
validation changes. Now an implementation of IValidableObject on a
top-level model will be called correctly with the 'empty' prefix instead
of the parameter name.
When fixing this we undid a workaround for another issue.
When validating a parameter that didn't bind we didn't correctly compute
the model name for 'fallback to empty prefix' cases.

This changes the logic for when we infer [FromRoute] on an action
parameter from *ALL* to *ANY*.
This means that if a parameter occurs in any route on an ApiController,
we will treat it as [FromRoute]. We think this is the best decision
because it's less ambiguous. If a parameter appears in a route, it won't
be eligible to be bound from query. I think that's good.
If for some reason you want this kind of behavior (route or query) then
we suggest breaking up the actions. This isn't very documentation
friendly (swagger) so we don't suggest it.
- #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 allows the use of custom 'envelope' types like ActionResult<> with
a corresponding API Explorer implementation.
Basically this PR services to decouple a bunch of infrastructure from
ActionResult<>.
- #7413 part 1 of 2
- made all `ModelMetadataProvider` and `ObjectModelValidator`-specific code conditional
- fortunately, `MvcOptions` easy to get; affected code is primarily `internal` or pub-`Internal`
- remove unnecessary `ModelMetadataProvider` use in `ApiBehaviorApplicationModelProvider`
- run integration and functional tests with `CompatibilityVersion.Version_2_1`
- functional test change depends on @javiercn's recent #7541 fix
- remove test code now redundantly turning compatibility switches on
nits:
- correct spelling errors in `CompatibilitySwitch`
- take VS suggestions, mostly in test code
- rename methods in `ControllerBinderDelegateProviderTest` to match current API
- slightly refactor in `ApiBehaviorApplicationModelProvider`
- The model attribute is used to define any object based model to be passed to a `TagHelper`. It enables scenarios when users want to pass in `new` poco types.
- Added unit tests for the new `ResolveModel` method in `PartialTagHelper`.
- Added a single functional test to verify the end-to-end.
#7374
Infers the 'empty' model prefix for complex types that are read from the value
providers. This gives us better defaults when using the parameter object
pattern with respect to swagger/API explorer.
Some details of this pending discussion, but this is a new 2.1 change
and compatibility switch in the spirit of making pages handler selection
less error-prone.
In particular we don't want anyone to have to define HEAD to do the
trivial thing. This currently routes all 'safe' HTTP methods to the GET
handler and all other HTTP methods to the POST handler.
This is technically not the correct thing to do for OPTIONS and TRACE,
so we might still do something different.
The tests will change a little depending on exactly what we decide to
do, but this is the main idea of the change.
