.net - Generating Admin Interfaces In MVC?
Feb 12, 2010Is there a Django-like admin interface generator for ASP.NET or ASP.NET MVC?If not, are there any tools that could assist in creating one?

i know actions enable access can be determine by [Authorize] attribute. but my admin has 10-20 controller and about 100 action.

all controller must be required login if user did not login.
I'm using EF4 to generate a model. My architecture looks like this:
IMyEntity (custom interface)
-> MyEntity - EF generated class
IMyOtherEntity (custom interface)
-> MyExtendedEntity (Customn Partial class) : MyOtherEntity (EF Generated)
The first entity has a list of MyExtendedEntity. Is there any way I can bind this with the entity framework. I'm targetting ASP.NET and WPF. The main probnlem I have is that I need an ObservableCollection in WPF, while the EF generated class only has an EntityCollection which doesn't even seem to derive from ObservableCollection.
From the following URL i got some doubts about the Recommendations for using Abstract class vs interfaces
[URL]
1. If you anticipate creating multiple versions of your component, create an abstract class. Abstract classes provide a simple and easy way to version your components. By updating the base class, all inheriting classes are automatically updated with the change. Interfaces, on the other hand, cannot be changed once created. If a new version of an interface is required, you must create a whole new interface. { Is there any example for this t ounderstand throughly ?} If you are designing small, concise bits of functionality, use interfaces. If you are designing large functional units, use an abstract class. If you want to provide common, implemented functionality among all implementations of your component, use an abstract class. Abstract classes allow you to partially implement your class, whereas interfaces contain no implementation for any members. { Is there any example for this t ounderstand throughly?
We have a SSO authentication service that other externally facing web pages and services use to authenticate users. A user tries to reach a service, if no cookie is found containing an authentication token, they are redirected (HTTP 302) to the SingleSignOn authentication service. The auth service does it's work, and redirects the user (HTTP 302) to the original URL with their encrypted authentication token in the URL. Great. How can I invoke this from a WCF POX service? No SOAP here, just HTTP GET/POST with XML responses.
What I'm currently doing is, in each service method implementation method, checking the headers for the cookie. If the cookie exists, verify the auth token and process the request. If the cookie doesn't exist or the auth token has expired, then respond with:
[Code]....
That works, but isn't integrated with any of the WCF features, and requires me to manually code for a whole bunch of scenarios. Is there a way I could implement this using these classes:
[Code]....
or use some other means that checks each request to the service? I've been reading pages like: How to: Create a Custom Token, but I don't see how it applies to my needs. I'm looking into this because I have some time before my project kicks off, and I'd like to implement this project correctly and learn about WCF as much as I can.
I am new to ASP.NET development. I noted that the design interface provided with visual studio 2010 is not very help ful in designing eye catching website. May be I am missing some pice of inforanmtion. To improve my understanding, specially with reference to Visual studo 2010/ASP.NET, I wanted to know useful resources about HTML, CSS and javascript
View 2 RepliesIf you try to use a property as a column for a gridview where the value is coming from an implicitly implemented interface, the value will not be found and throw an error. Even if you pass in a List of the interface.DataBinding: 'Class' does not contain a property with the name 'Field'.
View 4 Replies I am setting up my new project..We are using entity frame work 4.0..
Is there any way to generate all classes and interfaces as we create manually for 3-tier architecture...
Or do i need to generate manually...
Ex:

I have attempted to deploy my first WEB application and needed to include the Membership for Internet login. Application works fine when I use Visual Web Developer, but when I deploy to my provider when I attempt to Login, I eventually get the error message (this was after I turned on the debug="true" - full message is
[Code]....
When I copied the application to the WebSite, I assumed that the ASPNETDB.MDF needed to be copied too with everything that I defined for users and roles. Looked at the WEB.CONFIG and expected to see something defined here as to where it is located, etc. Do not see anything in my project with the name.
Suppose that you have a big Data Entry Web Application Like Microsoft CRM, what is the strategies and technologies that you follow to build a website like it?
I don't want to use any Dynamic Web Page Generation software, because it have a lot of limitations..
Also I don't want to design every page and repeat everything
I found a great answer on SO describing how to set up custom user roles, and I've done the same in my project. So in my Login service I have:
public ActionResult Login() {
// password authentication stuff omitted here
var roles = GetRoles(user.Type); // returns a string e.g. "admin,user"
var authTicket = new FormsAuthenticationTicket(
1,
userName,
DateTime.Now,
DateTime.Now.AddMinutes(20), // expiry
false,
roles,
"/");
var cookie = new HttpCookie(FormsAuthentication.FormsCookieName,
FormsAuthentication.Encrypt(authTicket));
Response.Cookies.Add(cookie);
return new XmlResult(xmlDoc); // don't worry so much about this - returns XML as ActionResult
}
And in Global.asax.cs, I have (copied verbatim from the other answer):
protected void Application_AuthenticateRequest(Object sender, EventArgs e) {
var authCookie = Context.Request.Cookies[FormsAuthentication.FormsCookieName];
if (authCookie != null) {
var authTicket = FormsAuthentication.Decrypt(authCookie.Value);
var roles = authTicket.UserData.Split(new Char[] { ',' });
var userPrincipal = new GenericPrincipal(new GenericIdentity(authTicket.Name), roles);
Context.User = userPrincipal;
}
}
Then, in my ServicesController class, I have:
[Authorize(Roles = "admin")]
//[Authorize]
public ActionResult DoAdminStuff() {
...
}
I login as a user with the "admin" role, and that works. Then I call /services/doadminstuff - and I get access denied, even though when I put a breakpoint in Global.asax.cs, I can see that my roles do include "admin". If I comment out the first Authorize attribute (with roles) and just use a plain vanilla Authorize, then I can access the service.
I have a build a new 3 tier application (Web,Application,Data tier). The application tier (middle tier) will host wcf web services. I build my service classes, define bindings , contracts etc which does the core business logic, data access and updates.
Now I have around 50 external clients who would want services from my application tier. But my problem is client A might send a flat file request, client B might sends a comma separated file request, client C might be a soap request. The requests further may be either real time or batch. My services may have to send data back to the caller either in a flat file.., xml or a soap response or other formats. The response might also be either batch or real time.
1)Is there a way to standardize the interface for all these 50 clients accessing my WCF services ?
2) If an external client sends a flat file via FTP (intended to serve as input to my service), how do I get this flat file data to hit my service. (Assuming that the legacy system is not service based and hence the external client just sends a file and is not aware of any services of the new system)
I am missing this DLL reference in c:program filesSQL Server90ToolsBinn. I'm assuming that this is because I didn't install the 2005 client. I installed all of the services for 2005, the database instance, reporting services instance, SSAS and SSIS. I installed the 2008 client though, not the 2005 client, and 2008 database instance.So I assume it's because I didn't install the client, but does something else give me this DLL? Another install or a SDK or something?
View 1 RepliesIs there any resource out there , where one can learn how to properly design user interfaces with ASP.NET controls on Visual Studio ?I have tried on my own by adding <asp:Table/> to form and then trying to accomodate panels within <asp:TableCell/> controls but that isn't quite going the way I imagined it would.This may not be the right way to design UIs, but I don't know any better for now.
View 7 RepliesI've got a multi level dependency chain in my object model: An organization has the following children relationships:
Organization
.CompetitionGroups
.CompetitionGroups.Venues
.CompetitionGroups.Competitions
.Divisions.Games
.Divisions.Games.Participants
.Divisions.Games.Participants.GameSegments
.Divisions.SubDivisions...
.Divisions
.Teams
.Teams.Players
.Teams.Participants
.Teams.Participants.GameSegments
.VenueDates
This is just a glimpse at the object model, but it's focused on the complexity of the relationships and lists. What I can't really get is what's the best way to factor my repository interfaces, given the requirements to do a unit of work. For example, to create a game, you'll need a venuedate and two participants. Does that mean the GamesController should require an IGameRepository, an IVenueDateRepository, and an IParticipant repository? Should they be rolled into one repository?
Also, what about in the consumption cases? For example, to display a signle team's schedule, you'll need all of the Participants for that Team, all of the Games for that participant, and all of the GameSegments for the participant. If those are factored into individual repositories I can't see how you can do efficient queries. Does that mean you have Repositories specifically focused on different cases? for example:
public interface IScheduleRepository {
public ICollection<Game> GetScheduleForTeam(Team team);
// More consumption methods
}
public class ScheduleRepositry : IScheduleRepository {
public ScheduleRepository (ModelContext context) {
// Do stuff with context
}
public ICollection<Game> GetScheduleForTeam(Team team) {
return (
from p in context.Participants
where ((p.Game.VenueDate != null) &&
(p.TeamId == team.Id))
orderby p.Game.VenueDate.StartTime
select p.Game).ToList();
}
// more consumption methods
}
public interface IGameRepository {
public void AddGame(Game game);
// More crud methods
}
// Not showing games repository
public class GamesController : Controller {
public GamesController (IGameRepository gamesRepo,
IVenueDateRepository venueDateRepo,
IParticipantRepository participantRepo) {
// do stuff with repos here
}
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult AddGame(Game game) {
// Skipping validation logic
// this?
VenueDate = venueDateRepo.Add(game.VenueDate);
foreach (Participant p in Game.Participants)
{
participantRepo.Add(p);
}
Game = gamesRepo.AddGame(game);
// or this?
// how would the game repo know to persist
// the children elements? is that tight coupling?
Game = gamesRepo.AddGame(game);
}
// more consumption methods
}
My question is I don't yet understand to what degree factoring your repositories make sense based on a connected object model. I'd love to get some advice here.

View 2 RepliesIn our project, we have a situation where the administrator needs to 'force log off' a particular user under certain conditions. In other words, the admin user needs to have the ability to kill any other user's session.Is this possible? By using the session properties, we can kill the current session (the current user's session) but is it possible (for the admin user) to kill some other user's session?
View 1 RepliesI am currently trying to figure out how to best go about implementing an administration side for my application.I have a user site, where users can log in, customize their profile, submit information etc.I would like administration users to be able to log in and be able to choose from a list of users. From there, the administrator can submit information for the user just like the user can.
Website Start Page > RogerRabbit > Submit Information
Website Start Page > BillyBob > Customize Profile
So my question is:
How should my pages be laid out?How should the Web.sitemap file look? Is there a nice way of creating a sitemap (maybe in memory?)Would this method have to use session variables?
