This change simplifies IFormatFilter's API and removes the dependency on
IActionContext accessor.
The old API for IFormatFilter required computing state based on the
current request as part of the constructor, which in turn implied the use
of a context accessor. This isn't really needed. I didn't preserve caching of
the 'format' as that seems like an early optimization.
The missing piece here is is that StringOutputFormatter needs to set the
ContentType so that it gets overridden. The problem is that the formatter
is likely called with something like application/json, but decides to
write a string anyway. So because we're saying 'yes we can write' we also
need to override what we're writing.
- aspnet/Mvc#3138 part 2/2
- request's Content-Type header must be a subset of what an `IInputFormatter` can consume
- `[Consumes]` is similar
- what an `IOutputFormatter` produces must be a subset of the request's Accept header
- `FormatFilter` and `ObjectResult` are similar
- `ObjectResult` no longer falls back to `Content-Type` header if no `Accept` value is acceptable
- left `WebApiCompatShim` code alone for consistency with down-level `System.Net.Http.Formatting`
- correct tests to match new behaviour
- do not test `Accept` values containing a `charset` parameter; that case is not valid
WIP:
- four test failures; something about comparing media types w/ charset included
- why do some localization tests fail in VS?
nits:
- add `InputFormatterTests`
- add / update comments and doc comments
- correct xUnit attributes in `ActionResultTest`; odd it doesn't show up in command-line runs
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
This is the first step is some more refactorings to come in the future
with the goal of making MVC less monolythic. This makes the core of MVC
more reusable and more in line with the design of other vNext platform
components.
With this change, Mvc.Core contains just the minimal guts needed to build
a working app.
- Action Discovery
- Action Invoker
- Filters
- ObjectResult
- Model Metadata
- Model Binding
- Formatters
- Validation System
And yes, we are aware of the irony of 'minimal MVC' not including the view
system. The idea is that this is the kernel of an MVC app, and anything
real is layered on top.
The most noticable impact of this change is that MvcOptions has been blown
apart into more managable chunks. See the various ConfigureMvc*** methods.
The new Mvc.Extensions package is a placeholder while we evaluate and tune
the new definitions. Expect more changes as features are move to their own
packages, and in some case their own repositories.
For now there is no experience to bootstrap an Mvc.Core app. That's coming
next.
This change simplifies InputFormatterContext/OutputFormatterContext by
swapping ActionContext for HttpContext.
This change is important especially for InputFormatterContext as it
decouples ModelState from ActionContext - allowing us to fix a
related bug where the _wrong_ ModelState can be passed in for a
TryUpdateModel operation.
Add SerializerSettings to MvcOptions and pass those options to the JsonInputFormatter and JsonOutputFormatter.
Remove custom contract resolver.

Creates a new package 'Microsoft.AspNet.Mvc.Abstractions' which defines
APIs and contracts for core concepts and extensibility points in MVC.
Includes:
- ModelBinding
- Validation
- Model State
- Model Metadata
- Action Descriptors
- IActionResult
- Filters
- IActionConstraint
This change removes reflection from validator providers, and instead
relies on cached metadata in in the modelmetadata.
In general this means that our MVPs don't need to cache anything, they
just look at the metadata and create what they need.
In the case of data-annotations, we update the model details provider to
add validation attributes to the modelmetadata. This would allow someone
to replace the DataAnnotationsValidatorProvider, but still use the
metadata in these attributes.
The change to the IModelValidatorProvider api (to use a context) is
intended to minimize allocations. Currently each validator provider needs
to return a list so you end up with N+1 lists (N validators + a final list
to compine them all). This change will let us just create the final list
(and a small context object). This is a very very high traffic API so it
seemed worth doing.
There's also some general massaging of namespaces and file locations.
