在MVC中将ViewModel类放在哪里

Question

My question is very simple. I want to know where to put my ViewModels in an MVC application.

Currently the project I'm working on only has ViewModels and they are stored in the Models folder. In that folder we directly create ViewModel classes.

But normally I would also have Model classes, to get data from a database or something. Then from a Controller I'd 'talk' to a Model method and store the result in a ViewModel property.

But where do I put the Model classes and ViewModel classes when I use both of them? What is a good practice in the sense of structuring my files/folders for these two?

Answer 1

Just create a new folder called ViewModels inside your project. So that along with the Views, Controllers and Models folders, you'll also have ViewModels. Like you already said, you talk to your DAL using your models and you talk to your views using your view models.

Answer 2

You need to structure your files and folders in a way that you and the people that follow you will find intuitive and maintainable.

I don't think there is any hard and fast rules about folder structure, just some are a lot worse than others. If it seems illogical and a bit smelly, then it probably is.

What you're proposing seems fine

Answer 3

创建单独的文件夹“ ViewModels”，并在控制器中引用名称空间，并在各自的视图中引用相同的名称空间
