我已经试着读了几天关于这个DefaultModelBinder的文章,但我仍然很困惑。我正在使用MVC 4&EF 5表格层次结构。
我的问题是我有一个资源基类:
public class Resource : PocoBaseModel
{
private int _resourceID;
private string _title;
private string _description;
//public accessors
}
具有子类(DVD、电子书、书籍等)
public class DVD : Resource
{
private string _actors;
//more fields and public accessors
}
我的控制器代码使用自定义ModelBinder
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Create([ModelBinder(typeof(ResourceModelBinder))] Resource resource)
{
//controller code
}
public class ResourceModelBinder : DefaultModelBinder
{
public override object BindModel(ControllerContext controllerContext,
ModelBindingContext bindingContext)
{
var type = controllerContext.HttpContext.Request.Form["DiscriminatorValue"];
bindingContext.ModelName = type;
bindingContext.ModelMetadata = ModelMetadataProviders.Current.GetMetadataForType(null, resourceTypeMap[type]);
return base.BindModel(controllerContext, bindingContext);
}
static Dictionary<string, Type> resourceTypeMap = new Dictionary<string, Type>
{
{"Resource", typeof(Resource)},
{"Book", typeof(Book)},
{"DVD", typeof(DVD)},
{"EBook", typeof(EBook)},
{"Hardware", typeof(Hardware)},
{"Software", typeof(Software)}
};
}
这样我就可以将资源(以DVD、书籍或任何其他类型播放)传递给我的视图
@model Models.Resource
@{
ViewBag.Title = "Create";
}
<h2>Create</h2>
@using (Html.BeginForm("Create", "Admin", null, FormMethod.Post, null))
{
@Html.ValidationSummary(true)
<fieldset>
<legend>Resource</legend>
@Html.HiddenFor(model => model.ResourceID)
@Html.HiddenFor(model => model.ResourceTypeID)
@Html.HiddenFor(model => model.Committed)
@Html.Partial("_CreateOrEdit", Model)
<p>
<input type="submit" value="Create"/>
</p>
</fieldset>
}
并基于其派生属性对其进行绑定,该派生属性发生在局部视图内的开关中。
@using Models.ViewModels;
@using Models.ResourceTypes;
@using Helper;
@model Models.Resource
@Html.HiddenFor(model => Model.DiscriminatorValue);
<table cellspacing="2" cellpadding="2" border="0">
@{
string type = Model.DiscriminatorValue;
switch (type)
{
case "Book":
Book book = (Book)Model;
<tr>
<td colspan="2">
<div class="editor-label" style="padding-top: 15px;">
@Html.LabelFor(model => model.Title)
</div>
<div class="editor-field">
@Html.TextAreaFor(model => model.Title, new { style = "width: 750px; height: 65px;" })
@Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.Title)
</div>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>

<div class="editor-label">
@Html.LabelFor(model => book.Edition)

@Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.Copies)
</div>
</td>

<div class="editor-label">
@Html.LabelFor(model => book.ISBN10)

我的第一个问题是,当我发布回表单时,它作为资源而不是强制类型返回(所以我丢失了所有派生类型属性),这就是我创建ResourceModelBinder的原因。现在它正确地绑定/postbackcast类型,但不绑定资源的基类属性,如Title、ResourceID、ResourceTypeID。。
有人能帮我理解我缺少了什么吗?这样它就能真正绑定基本资源类属性以及派生类型属性。?
所以我所要做的就是在我的自定义ModelBinder类中重写BindProperty方法。
protected override void BindProperty(ControllerContext controllerContext, ModelBindingContext bindingContext, System.ComponentModel.PropertyDescriptor propertyDescriptor)
{
if (propertyDescriptor.DisplayName != null)
{
var Form = controllerContext.HttpContext.Request.Form;
string currentPropertyFormValue = string.Empty;
string formDerivedTypeKey = bindingContext.ModelName.ToLower() + "." + propertyDescriptor.DisplayName;
string formBaseTypeKey = propertyDescriptor.DisplayName;
List<string> keywordList = null;
Type conversionType = propertyDescriptor.PropertyType;
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(Form[formDerivedTypeKey]) || !string.IsNullOrEmpty(Form[formBaseTypeKey]))
{
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(Form[formDerivedTypeKey]))
{
//store current derived type property
currentPropertyFormValue = Form[formDerivedTypeKey];
}
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(Form[formBaseTypeKey]))
{
//store current base type property
currentPropertyFormValue = Form[formBaseTypeKey];
}
}
if (conversionType.IsGenericType)
{
if (conversionType.GetGenericTypeDefinition() == typeof(List<>))
{
if (propertyDescriptor.DisplayName == "KeyWords")
{
string[] keywords = currentPropertyFormValue.Split(',');
if (keywords != null && keywords.Count() > 0)
{
//create keyword list
keywordList = new List<string>();
foreach (var item in keywords)
{
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(item) && !item.Contains(','))
{
keywordList.Add(item);
}
}
}
}
}
if (conversionType.GetGenericTypeDefinition() == typeof(Nullable<>))
{
// nullable type property.. re-store nullable type to a safe type
conversionType = Nullable.GetUnderlyingType(conversionType) ?? propertyDescriptor.PropertyType;
}
}
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(currentPropertyFormValue))
{
//bind property
if (propertyDescriptor.DisplayName != "KeyWords")
{
propertyDescriptor.SetValue(bindingContext.Model, Convert.ChangeType(currentPropertyFormValue, conversionType));
}
else
propertyDescriptor.SetValue(bindingContext.Model, Convert.ChangeType(keywordList, conversionType));
}
}
else
base.BindProperty(controllerContext, bindingContext, propertyDescriptor); //default condition
}
此方法将遍历可以分配的每个属性。它获取属性的类型,以便您可以将其值从表单转换为适当的类型。可以为null的类型和字符串属性列表存在一些挑战,但它成功绑定,所以我希望这对某些人有用。
