Agenda
 Beforehand – ASP.NET Web Forms
 What is MVC
 What is ASP.NET MVC?
 Models
 Views
 Controllers
 Validation
 Routing
 UnitTests
 View engines
2
ventsypopov.com
ASP.NET Web Forms
 Rich controls and tools
 Postbacks
 Event driven web development
 Viewstate
 Less control over the HTML
 Hard to test
 Rapid development
3

Let’s chat for a bit…

What is MVC
5
Model –View - Controller
6
 Controller - responsible for handling all user
input
 Model - represents the logic of the application
 View - the visual representation of the model
ventsypopov.com
ASP.NET MVC
 More control over HTML
 No Codebehind
 Separation of concerns
 Easy to test
 URL routing
 No postbacks
 NoViewState
7
ventsypopov.com
Models
 The model should contain all of the application
business logic, validation logic, and database
access logic.
 ASP.NET MVC is compatible with any data
access technology (for example LINQ to SQL)
 All .edmx files, .dbml files etc. are located in
the Models folder.
8
ventsypopov.com
Custom View Models
9
 When you combine properties to display on a
View
namespace ContosoUniversity.ViewModels
{
public class AssignedCourseData
{
public int CourseID { get; set; }
public string Title { get; set; }
public bool Assigned { get; set; }
}
}

Creating a Model - DEMO
10
ventsypopov.com
What is Controller?
 It is a class
 Derives from the base
System.Web.Mvc.Controller class
 Generates the response to the browser request
11
public class HomeController : Controller
{
public ActionResult Index()
{
ViewBag.Message = "Welcome to ASP.NET MVC!";
return View();
}
public ActionResult About()
{
return View();
}
}
ventsypopov.com
Controller Actions
 Public method of the Controller class
 Cannot be overloaded
 Cannot be a static method
 Returns action result
12
public ActionResult About()
{
return View();
}
ventsypopov.com
Action Results
 Controller action response to a browser
request
 Inherits from the base ActionResult class
 Different results types
13
ventsypopov.com
Implement a Controller -
DEMO
14
ventsypopov.com
Action Results Types
 ViewResult
 EmptyResult
 RedirectResult
 JsonResult
 JavaScriptResult
 ContentResult
 FileContentResult
 FileStreamResult
 FilePathResult
15
ventsypopov.com
Controller base class
methods
 View
 Redirect
 RedirectToAction
 RedirectToRoute
 Json
 JavaScriptResult
 Content
 File
16
ventsypopov.com
Views
 Most of the Controller Actions return views
 The path to the view is inferred from the name
of the controller and the name of the
controller action.
 ViewsControllerNameControllerAction.aspx
 A view is a standard (X)HTML document that
can contain scripts.
 script delimiters <% and %> in the views
17
ventsypopov.com
Pass Data to a View
 WithViewData:
 ViewData["message"] = "Hello World!";
 Strongly typedViewData:
 ViewData.Model = OurModel;
 WithViewBag:
 ViewBag.Message = "Hello World!";
18
ventsypopov.com
Post data to a controller
 Verb Attributes
 The action method in the controller accepts the
values posted from the view.
 The view form fields must match the same
names in the controller.
19
ventsypopov.com
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Edit(Movie movie)
{
if (ModelState.IsValid)
{
db.Entry(movie).State = EntityState.Modified;
db.SaveChanges();
return RedirectToAction("Index");
}
return View(movie);
}
Explore a View - DEMO
20
ventsypopov.com
HTML Helpers
 Methods which typically return string.
 Used to generate standard HTML elements
 textboxes, dropdown lists, links etc.
 Example: Html.TextBox() method
 Usage is optional
 You can create your own HTML Helpers
21
ventsypopov.com
Validation
 Two types of validation error messages
 generated before the HTML form fields are
bound to a class
 generated after the form fields are bound to the
class
 Model State
 Validation Helpers
 Html.ValidationMessage()
 Html.ValidationSummary()
22
ventsypopov.com
Implement validation-
DEMO
23
ventsypopov.com
Routing
 The Routing module is responsible for
mapping incoming browser requests to
particular MVC controller actions.
 Two places to setup:
 Web.config file
 Global.asax file
24
ventsypopov.com
Routing Setup
 Web.config file
25
<system.web>
<httpModules>
…
<system.web>
<httpHandlers> …
<system.webServer>
<modules> …
<system.webServer>
<handlers>
…
ventsypopov.com
Routing Setup
Global.asax file
26
public class MvcApplication : System.Web.HttpApplication
{
public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes)
{
routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}");
routes.MapRoute(
"Default",
"{controller}/{action}/{id}",
new { controller = "Home",
action = "Index", id = "" }
);
}
protected void Application_Start()
{
RegisterRoutes(RouteTable.Routes);
}
}
ventsypopov.com
URL Example
http://www.mysite.com/Home/About/6
{controller} = Home
{action} = About
{id} = 6
27

Routing example - DEMO
28
ventsypopov.com
Unit Tests
 Used for the business logic (not DAL orView
logic).
 Test individual “unit”of code
 Make the code safe to modify
 Mock Object framework
 When you lack “real” objects
 Create mocks for the classes in the application
 Test with mock objects
29
ventsypopov.com
Unit Tests - DEMO
30
ventsypopov.com
View Engines
 Handles the rendering of the view to UI
(html/xml);
 Different view engines have different syntax
 ASP.NET MVC 3 Pre-includedView Engines:
 Web Forms
 Razor
31
ventsypopov.com
View Engines - DEMO
32
ventsypopov.com
Things to remember
 What MVC stands for
 How ASP.NET MVC differs from Web Forms
 Where is routing configured
 How to validate business logic
 How to use helpers
 Unit tests basics
 Choice between “View Engines”
