I have a new MVC4 project.
In my _Layout.cshtml I have the following:
<div class="container maincontent">
<div class="row">
<div class="span2 hidden-phone">
@*
In here is a RenderSection featured. This is declared in a section tag in Views\Home\Index.cshtml.
If this is static text for the whole site, don't render a section, just add it in.
You should also be able to use @Html.Partial("_LoginPartial") for example.
This _LoginPartial will need to be a cshtml in the Shared Views folder.
*@
@{ Html.RenderPartial("_NewsFeed"); }
</div>
<div class="span10">
@RenderBody()
</div>
</div>
</div>
My partial view is
<div class="row newsfeed">
NEWS FEED
@foreach (var item in ViewData["newsfeed"] as IEnumerable<NewsItem>)
{
<div class="span2 newsfeeditem">
<h3>@item.NewsTitle</h3>
<p>@item.NewsContent</p>
@Html.ActionLink("More", "NewsItem", "News", new {id=@item.Id}, null)
</div>
}
Is there a way I can make the partial view make the data call. Currently I have to do the following in my controller for every action:
ViewData["newsfeed"] = _db.NewsItems.OrderByDescending(u => u.DateAdded).Where(u => u.IsLive == true).Take(4);
return View(ViewData);
I come unstuck where I already pass in a model to a view as I cannot then pass this into it as well.
I know I am doing something wrong, just not sure what or where.
I just want to be able to make a render call in my _layout and then the partial view to know to collect the data and then render itself. Or have I got the wrong end of the stick? I suppose I am trying to use it like an ascx...
You should switch from using a RenderPartial
to a RenderAction
. This allows you to go through the pipeline again and produce an ActionResult just like a partial, but with server side code. For example:
@Html.RenderAction("Index", "NewsFeed");
Then you make a NewsFeedController
and provide an Index
action method:
public class NewsFeedController : Controller
{
public ActionResult Index()
{
var modelData = _db.NewsItems.OrderByDescending(...);
// Hook up or initialize _db here however you normally are doing it
return PartialView(modelData);
}
}
Then you simply have your CSHTML like a normal view in your Views/NewsFeed/Index.cshtml location.
