MVC :: Validate Entity With List?
Apr 27, 2010
Let's say we have a entity to add - an Invoice with multiple Lines
public class Lines
{
public string ObjectName;
public string Color;
}
public class Invoice
{
public string DocumentID;
public DateTime InvoiceDate;
public List<Lines> lines;
public string Observation;
}
The Lines is valid if and only if it has ObjectName and Color
Now, when in AddMode , the requirements are to show enter a new Invoice with 10 Lines by default .
This was easy (binding to an object that contains list, right?) - but in validation mode, the ModelState.IsValid is validating all my 10 lines - regardless if the user have been entered only 2 lines.
I have tried to remove the empty lines by writing a Binder for Invoice, inheriting from DefaultModelBinder and removing the empty lines ( those for ObjectName AND Color both nulls or empty ) .But, no matter what overriding method (CreateModel , BindModel ) I have used , no success. The binding model occurs first.
I have tried to do ModelState.Clear() and ValidateModel(invoice) in the controller. But ValidateModel is not validating "sub-properties of complex properties" - see comments from
[URL]
If you know how to either :
a) re-validate all properties (including for complex object)
b) modifying the model before ModelState grab errors
c) ?
(I can not debug with MVC2 source code - but this is another post...)

Is there a method like IsValid(); in Entity Framework Generated classes?
Would I have to create a method like the above?
PS.
I would like the method to return a boolean.

I use LINQ to SQL and I added some meta data to my entity objects.
But how can I validate this entity object in ASP.NET 3.5 Forms ? I find a lot information for validating this objects in MVC, but that is not what I want of course :) .

I have a button click event that adds a record to a table based on the userid and threadid the user is viewing. I am a bit new to entity so I am stumbling around. I have to where conditions
ThreadID == threadid
UserId == userIdPosts
I have this query but do not know how to execute it and if I have it as is I get this in the yellow screen of death Both the theadid and userIdPosts have data in them.
var query = context.TrackLists.First(t => t.ThreadID == threadid);
context.TrackLists.First(t => t.UserId == userIdPosts);
Sequence contains no elements
Line 90: // find is user has already tracked this thread.
Line 91: var query = context.TrackLists.First(t => t.ThreadID == threadid);
Line 92: context.TrackLists.First(t => t.UserId == userIdPosts);

Data annotation to validate an inbound model in MVC:
public class ValidNumber
{
[RegularExpression(@"^d+$", ErrorMessage = "*")]
public string number { get; set; }
}
Would I need to create my own class to validate a List<string> or can I do something like this? What code could I write in C# to add a Regex validator for a list of string?
public class ValidNumberList
{
[RegularExpression(@"^d+$", ErrorMessage = "*")]
public List<string> numbers { get; set; }
}

I am using javascript to validate user input on my aspx page. I am easily able to validate textboxes and dropdown list for differenet scenarios.
Now, on one of my dropdown lists (for country), I need to check if it is an allowed country or not for a particular service. I have stored the valid country list in a static property. Is there a way to validate my dropdownlist selected value against that static property?
function validateService(source, args)
{
var country = document.getElementById('<%= ddDestCountry.ClientID %>');
var service = document.getElementById('<%= ddService.ClientID %>');
// Get allowed country list from my static class
var countryList = document.getElementById('<%= StaticProperties.EUCountryList %>');
if (service.value == "P")
{
// I want to do something like this
if (!countrylist.Contains(country.value))
{
args.IsValid = false;
}
else {
args.IsValid = true;
}
}
return;
}
Update(Additional Information): The static property is read-only so it cannot be tampered with from the page.

I'm trying to keep track of employees in my database. I have two tables, Employees and Departments. The Employees table contains a foreign key relationship with Departments through a column named DepartmentID.
Here's my entity:
[code]....
I have a page that contains a form to add an employee. I'm passing the entity to my view page, and calling <%: Html.EditorForModel() %>
The problem is that the view creates a textbox for the DepartmentID.
How can I force the view to display a dropdown for DepartmentID that contains all the Departments in my database as the dropdown's list items? Is there a way to do this by just adding a metadata attribute to the property in my entity?

I have a dropdown list on an ASP.NET MVC project that I am pretty sure is not binding to my model because of my nhibernate mapping. I have tried many variations on the asp mvc side resulting in this post here.
MVC side of things seems fine I believe the issue may be that my object is trying to bind, but my mapping is out of whack.
My mapping is:
<many-to-one name="Project" lazy="false"
class="AgileThought.ERP.Domain.Property.Project"
column="ProjectGUID" />
My View gives an error saying that the GUID from the dropdownList selected value is not valid. Which I think may be that it is trying to push the GUID into my related project object.
The value 'fd38c877-706f-431d-b624-1269184eeeb5' is invalid.
My related project list binds to the dropdown list just fine, it is just not binding to my models Project entity.

I need to pass a list of Entity Objects from Controller to View but not put it in the Model context. It is the users homepage, but I am putting a list of alerts on the users home page(somewhat like facebook). So I need the User Context as the Model I pass but need to pass the Alert model as well so I can show the list of alerts.. How would I do that? The code below is what I have so far..

I want to bind a field in a View to a property in a ViewModel. The object is "Program" and has the properties "Name" and "Level". So the user should be able to set the name of a program and the level of experience he/she has with this program.Program is a table in an Sql Server database, and is accessed through Entity Framework. So it would be easy enough to bind the Level property in the ViewModel to a textbox:
@Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.Level)
But I want a dropdownlist with a limited number of levels (1-5). So how do I do this and still have the dropdownlist bind to the ViewModel property?

I'm using Entity Framework for my object-relational mapping, and jqGrid for my grid.
I have an Employee entity, that contains a ContactID field. I have a Contact entity that contains fields FirstName and LastName.
I want to display a list of Employees in a grid, and give the user the ability to sort by FirstName and LastName.
Here's what I have right now:
public JsonResult GridData(string sidx, string sord, int page, int rows)
{
var pageIndex = Convert.ToInt32(page) - 1;
var pageSize = rows;
var totalRecords = GetAllEmployees().Count();
var totalPages = (int)Math.Ceiling(totalRecords / (float)pageSize);
IQueryable<Employee> employees = GetAllEmployees().
OrderBy(sidx + " " + sord).
Skip(pageIndex * pageSize).
Take(pageSize).ToArray();
}
As you can see, this only gives me the ability to sort by fields in the Employee entity, so I can't sort by FirstName and LastName.
How can I modify this to accomplish that?

i have a drop down list and a text box, inside a listview row (and this is a repeating layout). i populate each dropdownlist with same contents ( these contents/items come from a custom collection object).
i have added a required field validator in the listview's item template, that has its validation group = the validation group of the drop down list, and validates if the textbox is blank or not. this validation takes place on the selected index changed of the drop downlist for that row.
1. on selected index changed, EACH dropdownlist validates only its corressponding textbox perfectly (which is what i want)
but if i enter some text in one of the textboxes after doing 1, the dropdownlist for THAT particular row, assigns the correct value to the text entered. but for other rows (for which i changed their corresponding ddls to test the required field validation and for which the text boxes are still blank), their ddls by itself assign the values to the blank text without validating.
markup of code for listview is [Code]....
code behind for the ddl selected index changed is [Code]....
method GetIndexFromId retrieves index of the custom object inside a collection depending on the Id (which is a property) of the object.
i notice that the ddl selectedindexchanged is being hit as many number of times as many rows i change (i.e as many ddls in different rows i change to check the required field validation)

I have an EDM, it includes the entities extension and history. My goal is to use history to keep track of all the changes made to extension entity. For example, if extension with ID 223 has its property 'Name_Display' changed - I want the history entity to record this.
I'm using ASP.NET with VB.NET. Where in my code do I put the hook to say, "update the history entity" and what should that hook look like?

getting data from multiple Entities models into an MVC controller. Most of the examples I have seen for using EF in an MVC2 app only use a single entitiy.
I have just started using MVC2 in C# using the Entity Framework models (CIOps.model) created from an SQL database. I can create the controller and views using single tables of the model in MVC2, but I just cannot get my head around how to get data from multiple entity tables into the controller (similar to joins in T-SQL). I have included an example below of the controller code that works with a single entity table, tbl_tours (tbl_tour in DB).
Could someone please illustrate how this code would be changed to include additional columns from FK tables in addition to tbl_tours columns. E.g. the clients name from the tbl_clients, the coordinators name from the tbl_employees, and costs from tbl_costs entities? Is it possible to do this directly using the EF model entities/classes that are already created and not use LINQ, POCO, Repositories, etc.? The FK relationships are already in the EF models. I have included the whole controller code, but I just need a few examples of how to join the multiple entities, not rewrite every CRUD function function in the controller. I think this will get me over the hump in using EF in an MVC2 App. Also ignore the fact I am using the home controller, this will change in the application.

I am mapping a stored procedure to an entity by right clicking on the entity (in the .edmx) and selecting "Stored Procedure Mapping." This brings you to a Mapping Details - "Name of Entity" Window that allows you to select the insert, update, and delete stored procedures associated with the Entity. It also maps the stored procedure parameter to the Entity "Property" (Column).
I'm gettin an error "error 2042: Parameter Mapping specified is not valid." The cause of the error is fairly obvious, in the Insert stored procedure that has been selected, a 'CHAR' parameter is being mapped to an Int32 Entity Property. I altered the stored procedure parameter to match the entity, I deleted the stored procedure, readded, and reslected it as the Insert function. I also cleaned, validated, updated model from database. No matter what I do, the parameter list in the mapping details doesn't reflect the change to the stored procedure. It's stuck on a char --> int32 mapping, even though it has been changed, like it's buried deep in meta data some where.
