It seems simple like in ASP.NET MVC but I can't figure out how to map an URI with a string parameter to an action on my controller. So I have three actions in my controller as below:
//GET: api/Societe
public IEnumerable<Societe> GetSociete()
{
List<Societe> listeSociete = Librairie.Societes.getAllSociete();
return listeSociete.ToList();
}
//GET: api/Societe/id
[ResponseType(typeof(Societe))]
public IHttpActionResult GetSociete(int id)
{
Societe societeRecherchee = Librairie.Societes.getSociete(id);
if (societeRecherchee == null)
{
return NotFound();
}
else
{
return Ok(societeRecherchee);
}
}
public IHttpActionResult GetSocieteByLibelle(string name)
{
Societe societeRecherchee = new Societe();
if (!string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(name))
{
societeRecherchee = Librairie.Societes.getSocieteByLibelle(name);
if (societeRecherchee == null)
{
return NotFound();
}
}
return Ok(societeRecherchee);
}
So I would like to map an URI with the action:
GetSocieteByLibelle(string name)
My route configuration is the default one for Wep API project. May someone explain me how to map an URI to that action ? Thanks in advance !
Looks like the two routes are resulting in the same method call being invoked. Try putting a [Route] attribute on one of them as follows:
[Route("api/Societe/libelle/{name}")]
public IHttpActionResult GetSocieteByLibelle(string name)
{
}
Note that the default /api/Societe/{id} should still hit your first Action.

I want to know, there is any technique so we can pass Model as a parameter in RedirectToAction
For Example:
public class Student{
public int Id{get;set;}
public string Name{get;set;}
}
Controller
public class StudentController : Controller
{
public ActionResult FillStudent()
{
return View();
}
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult FillStudent(Student student1)
{
return RedirectToAction("GetStudent","Student",new{student=student1});
}
public ActionResult GetStudent(Student student)
{
return View();
}
}
My Question - Can I pass student model in RedirectToAction?
Using TempData
Represents a set of data that persists only from one request to the
next
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult FillStudent(Student student1)
{
TempData["student"]= new Student();
return RedirectToAction("GetStudent","Student");
}
[HttpGet]
public ActionResult GetStudent(Student passedStd)
{
Student std=(Student)TempData["student"];
return View();
}
Alternative way
Pass the data using Query string
return RedirectToAction("GetStudent","Student", new {Name="John", Class="clsz"});
This will generate a GET Request like Student/GetStudent?Name=John & Class=clsz
Ensure the method you want to redirect to is decorated with [HttpGet] as
the above RedirectToAction will issue GET Request with http status
code 302 Found (common way of performing url redirect)
Just call the action no need for redirect to action or the new keyword for model.
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult FillStudent(Student student1)
{
return GetStudent(student1); //this will also work
}
public ActionResult GetStudent(Student student)
{
return View(student);
}
Yes you can pass the model that you have shown using
return RedirectToAction("GetStudent", "Student", student1 );
assuming student1 is an instance of Student
which will generate the following url (assuming your using the default routes and the value of student1 are ID=4 and Name="Amit")
.../Student/GetStudent/4?Name=Amit
Internally the RedirectToAction() method builds a RouteValueDictionary by using the .ToString() value of each property in the model. However, binding will only work if all the properties in the model are simple properties and it fails if any properties are complex objects or collections because the method does not use recursion. If for example, Student contained a property List<string> Subjects, then that property would result in a query string value of
....&Subjects=System.Collections.Generic.List'1[System.String]
and binding would fail and that property would be null
[HttpPost]
public async Task<ActionResult> Capture(string imageData)
{
if (imageData.Length > 0)
{
var imageBytes = Convert.FromBase64String(imageData);
using (var stream = new MemoryStream(imageBytes))
{
var result = (JsonResult)await IdentifyFace(stream);
var serializer = new JavaScriptSerializer();
var faceRecon = serializer.Deserialize<FaceIdentity>(serializer.Serialize(result.Data));
if (faceRecon.Success) return RedirectToAction("Index", "Auth", new { param = serializer.Serialize(result.Data) });
}
}
return Json(new { success = false, responseText = "Der opstod en fejl - Intet billede, manglede data." }, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}
// GET: Auth
[HttpGet]
public ActionResult Index(string param)
{
var serializer = new JavaScriptSerializer();
var faceRecon = serializer.Deserialize<FaceIdentity>(param);
return View(faceRecon);
}
[NonAction]
private ActionResult CRUD(someModel entity)
{
try
{
//you business logic here
return View(entity);
}
catch (Exception exp)
{
ModelState.AddModelError("", exp.InnerException.Message);
Response.StatusCode = 350;
return someerrohandilingactionresult(entity, actionType);
}
//Retrun appropriate message or redirect to proper action
return RedirectToAction("Index");
}
i did find something like this, helps get rid of hardcoded tempdata tags
public class AccountController : Controller
{
[HttpGet]
public ActionResult Index(IndexPresentationModel model)
{
return View(model);
}
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Save(SaveUpdateModel model)
{
// save the information
var presentationModel = new IndexPresentationModel();
presentationModel.Message = model.Message;
return this.RedirectToAction(c => c.Index(presentationModel));
}
}
I wanna force the Route with .html and a 32 length id.
For example, here is the URL:
https://localhost:44331/Re/test.html?id=12345678901234567890123456789012
I want it when there is no id parameter in the URL or the length of id is not 32, it returns 404 status code.
Here is the controller:
namespace V.Controllers
{
[Route("Re/")]
public class ReController : Controller
{
[Route("test.html{id:length(32)}")]
public IActionResult test(string id)
{
return View();
}
}
}
After I ran the code, it always reports 404 status code.
What's wrong with my route?
I don't think you can specify query string parameters in the route. Try validating the id in the action, or if you can change the route, add it as an additional segment.
[Route("Re/")]
public class ReController : Controller
{
[Route("test.html")]
public IActionResult test(string id)
{
if (id == null || id.Length != 32)
return NotFound();
return Json(new {id= id});
}
[Route("test2.html/{id:length(32)}")]
public IActionResult test2(string id)
{
return Json(new {id= id});
}
}
See: Microsoft Docs
My current action looks like this:
[HttpPost]
public void AddMessage([FromBody] ShoutboxMessage input)
{
if (!string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(input.Message) && Request.Cookies["usrid"] != null)
{
input.SbUserId = int.Parse(Request.Cookies["usrid"]);
input.Timestamp = DateTime.UtcNow;
context.ShoutboxMessages.Add(input);
context.SaveChanges();
}
}
I would like to just do this:
[HttpPost]
public void AddMessage([FromBody] ShoutboxMessage input)
{
if (Request.Cookies["usrid"] == null)
RedirectToAction("Login");
if (!string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(input.Message))
{
//...
}
}
but that doesn't work, obviously. Is there a way to redirect from an action that's supposed to return void? Or, the other way around, can an Action that's supposed to return an ActionResult not result in any redirection or reload of the current page?
Edit: the "duplicate" has nothing to do with this. it may be that a void action returns basically the same as an EmptyResult action, but that's not the topic here, basically I want to know how to chose between an EmptyResult and an ActionResult at runtime.
Something like this? You can always return EmptyResult() from Action.
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult AddMessage([FromBody] ShoutboxMessage input)
{
if (Request.Cookies["usrid"] == null)
return this.RedirectToAction("Login");
if (!string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(input.Message))
{
//...
return new EmptyResult();
}
}
I have a handful of Actions in my ASP.NET MVC site that have one parameter. The first lines of code on all these actions checks that the parameter is not null, and if it is, redirect to a page that allows them to choose a value for the parameter.
For example:
public ActionResult Summary(string client)
{
if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(client))
return RedirectToAction("Select");
return View();
}
I'd like to create an attribute that does something like the above code, so I don't have to repeat it in every action. Something like:
[ClientRequired]
public ActionResult Summary(string client)
{
return View();
}
And then the ClientRequiredAttribute would check the value of the client parameter, and if it's empty/null, redirect to the select client page. Is such an attribute possible?
-shnar
Yes, it is possible.
It would be something like this:
public class ClientRequiredAttribute : ActionFilterAttribute
{
public override void OnActionExecuting(ActionExecutingContext filterContext)
{
object parameter = null;
filterContext.ActionParameters.TryGetValue("client", out parameter);
var client = parameter as string;
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(client))
{
var urlHelper = new UrlHelper(filterContext.Controller.ControllerContext.RequestContext);
var url = urlHelper.Action("Select", "ControllerName");
filterContext.Result = new RedirectResult(url);
}
}
}
PS: Not tested, but it should work.
In ASP.NET MVC 5 you can use attribute routing.

I'm trying to create a mvc application. I have a project controller, actions are below
[AllowAnonymous]
[HttpGet]
public ActionResult Index()
{
//TODO: Browse
return View();
}
[AllowAnonymous]
[HttpGet]
public ActionResult Index(long projectId)
{
using (var entity = new dixraContext())
{
var project = entity.Projects.FirstOrDefault(m => m.Id == projectId);
if (project == null)
return RedirectToAction("NotFound", "Error");
else
return RedirectToAction("Index", project.UrlName);
}
}
[AllowAnonymous]
[HttpGet]
public ActionResult Index(string projectName)
{
using (var entity = new dixraContext())
{
var project = entity.Projects.Where(m => m.Name == projectName);
return View(project);
}
}
I want to show URL's like
example.com/Project/ProjectName
But when i enter url as
example.com/Project/1
Got Error.
An error occurred while processing your request
. as response. When i enter example.com/Project/Index/1 i go into first action.
I also want to resolve project from id and redirect to usual Project/ProjectName url.
Looks like you've got conflicting routes. One way to solve this while leaving your three possible inputs would be checking your input parameter.
Also, your RedirectToAction has a string as its second parameter - that overload of RedirectToAction treats the second parameter as the controller name, not the route object:
Assuming your routes file looks ok:
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Project",
url: "Project/{projectName}",
defaults: new { controller = "Project", action = "Index" }
);
Your controller action might be:
[AllowAnonymous]
[HttpGet]
public ActionResult Index(string projectName)
{
if (string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(projectName))
{
// return your empty view
}
int projectId;
if (int.TryParse(projectName, out projectId))
{
projectName = GetProjectNameFromDatabase(projectId);
return RedirectToAction("Index", new { projectName });
}
// return your view with your model
}
There may be a better way, but this will work.
