Abstractions - Core MVC extensibility
Controllers - MVC implementations of .Abstractions and supporting
contracts
Infrastructure - General purpose support APIs. Metadata APIs that don't
fit clearly with a feature or with .Abstraction
- #2722
- make communication of errors from formatters to `BodyModelBinder` explicit
- `JsonInputFormatter` now adds errors to `ModelStateDictionary` with correct key
- change `InputFormatter.SelectCharacterEncoding()` to add an error and return `null` when it fails
- one less `Exception` case and removes some duplicate code
nits:
- improve some doc comments (more `<inheritdoc/>`, `<paramref/>` and `<see/>`)
- add another two `BodyValidationIntegrationTests` tests
some more tests.
This change reverts the behavior change from
a6ce9abab1 and adds more tests around the
scneario that was actually broken.
The right behavior is that unconvertable values result in a validation
error. There's no special behavior around value types and required values.
- Disabling tests which have corresponding bugs in mono.
- Fixing a few tests which do not handle *nix file system.
- Updating Travis configuration to use mono's alpha bits.
- Introducing PlatformNormalizer to normalize content across multiple platforms.
- part II of II for #2445
- `FormCollectionModelBinder` is an exception because container is not user-provided
- no `ModelState` entry added
- enable tests that #2445 was blocking
- fix these and other tests expecting different `ModelState` entries
- simplify logic in `FormFileModelBinder`
`ValueProviderResult`
- remove `protected` setters and parameterless constructor
- no scenario for their use in subclasses; however `ConvertTo()` remains `virtual`
- add single-parameter constructor
- use in most of the greedy and type-matching model binders
- add doc comments throughout class
nits:
- use new `ValueProviderResult` constructor in many existing tests
- `""` -> `string.Empty` and `vpr` -> `valueProviderResult` in `ValueProviderResultTest`
- improve some test names in `BodyValidationIntegrationTests`
- do not check `Message` of a Json.NET `Exception`
Also ensures that when a type is marked as skipped, any sub property which is model bound (and hence a modelstate un validated entry),
is marked as skipped (otherwise it would cause the ModelState to be invalid).
Also fixing a bug in model state dictionary FindKeyWithPrefix was not considering [0] & [0][0] as a valid prefix.
The assumption is ModelState should have entries if
1. An error is explicitly added by a model binder.
2. There is validation error reported while validating the model.
3. There is value bound by the model binder.
With this change there should be no extra entry other than for the cases mentioned above.
Also enabling the integration test cases.
Covers simple scenario for each model binder.
Covers scenarios mixing a POCO model binder -> Simple Model binder.
This contains tests for
HeaderModel
ServicesModelBinder
CancellationTokenModelBinder
ByteArrayModelBinder
FormFileModelBinder
Part 2 Will contain similar tests for
FormCollectionModelBinder
BinderTypeBasedModelBinder
TypeConverterModelBinder
TypeMatchModelBinder
Any leftovers for BodyModelBinder
Consider
public class Person
{
[FromBody]
public Address Address { get; set; }
}
public class Address
{
[Required]
public string Street { get; set; }
public int Zip { get; set; }
}
Request body { "Zip" : 12345 }
In this case the error key would be "prefix.Address.Street" (assuming there is a prefix because of additional metadata/positioning for/of the Person model).
public class Person
{
[Required]
public string Name { get; set; }
}
public void Action([FromBody]Person p)
{
}
Request body { }
In this case the prefix gets ignored and the error key is Name.
Please note this is so that we are compatible with MVC 5.0
public class Person
{
[Required]
public string Name { get; set; }
}
public void Action([FromBody][ModelBinder(Name = "prefix")] Person p)
{
}
public void Action2([FromBody][Bind(Name = "prefix")] Person p)
{
}
Request body { }
In both these cases (Action and Action2) the prefix gets ignored and the error key is Name.
This is a slight improvement from mvc, as in MVC the action parameter would be null.
The followup for this would be to fix#2416 -
This PR ignores the validation assuming that #2416 will address the issues and update the test.
NOTE: previous versions of mvc did not have property binding and hence there is no precedence in this case. For MVC and Web API it was possible to body bind an action parameter which used an empty prefix instead of a parameter name for adding errors to model state (In case of MVC if a custom prefix was provided, it failed binding from body i.e the parameter was null).
