通过向导方法填充 ViewModel

Question

我找到了如何在 ASP MVC 中创建向导的绝佳答案。
multi-step registration process issues in asp.net mvc (splitted viewmodels, single model)

我只有一个与此相关的问题。将数据填充到视图模型中的最佳做法是什么？

假设在第 2 步中，我需要向用户显示数据列表。列表数据来自数据库。然后我会继续为视图模型创建一个构造函数，还是应该将它填充到控制器中？

这就是我的代码现在的样子。

型号

[Serializable]
public class Step1ViewModel : IStepViewModel
{
    public bool MyProperty { get; set; }
}

[Serializable]
public class Step2ViewModel : IStepViewModel
{
    // This needs to be populated with data, I need to display it in a list
    public List<string> MyList { get; set; }
}

[Serializable]
public class Step3ViewModel : IStepViewModel
{
    public bool MyProperty { get; set; }
}

[Serializable]
public class PublishViewModel
{
    public int CurrentStepIndex { get; set; }
    public IList<IStepViewModel> Steps { get; set; }

    public void Initialize()
    {
        Steps = typeof(IStepViewModel)
            .Assembly
            .GetTypes()
            .Where(t => !t.IsAbstract && typeof(IStepViewModel).IsAssignableFrom(t))
            .Select(t => (IStepViewModel)Activator.CreateInstance(t))
            .ToList();
}

public class PublishViewModelBinder : DefaultModelBinder
{
    protected override object CreateModel(ControllerContext controllerContext, ModelBindingContext bindingContext, Type modelType)
    {
        var stepTypeValue = bindingContext.ValueProvider.GetValue("StepType");
        var stepType = Type.GetType((string)stepTypeValue.ConvertTo(typeof(string)), true);
        var step = Activator.CreateInstance(stepType);
        bindingContext.ModelMetadata = ModelMetadataProviders.Current.GetMetadataForType(() => step, stepType);
        return step;
    }
}

public interface IStepViewModel
{
}

控制器

public ActionResult Publish(int? id)
{
    var publish = new PublishViewModel();
    publish.Initialize();
    return View(publish);
}

[HttpPost]
[ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
public ActionResult Publish([Deserialize] PublishViewModel publish, IStepViewModel step)
{
    publish.Steps[publish.CurrentStepIndex] = step;

    if (ModelState.IsValid)
    {

        if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(Request["next"]))
        {
            publish.CurrentStepIndex++;
        }
        else if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(Request["prev"]))
        {
            publish.CurrentStepIndex--;
        }
        else
        {
            // TODO: we have finished: all the step partial
            // view models have passed validation => map them
            // back to the domain model and do some processing with
            // the results

            return Content("thanks for filling this form", "text/plain");
        }
    }
    else if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(Request["prev"]))
    {
        // Even if validation failed we allow the user to
        // navigate to previous steps
        publish.CurrentStepIndex--;
    }

    return View(publish);
}

所以我的问题是，我应该在哪里填充 Step2 的列表？ 我的第一个想法是在 Step2 视图模型中有一个构造函数。第二个想法是在控制器中有一些逻辑找出我在哪一步，并从那里填充它。但这听起来有点糟糕。

Answer 1

从控制器填充。总是。您永远不应该在视图模型或更糟的实体中与您的上下文进行交互。如果您想抽象数据库工作，请将其移动到存储库或服务中，然后让您的控制器对其调用方法。

Answer 2

我最后得到了这个。 但我真的很想得到一些关于这种方法的反馈。 例如，我怎样才能将这个控制器乱七八糟地移到自定义模型绑定器中？

片段

    if (publish.Steps[publish.CurrentStepIndex].GetType() == typeof(Step1ViewModel))
    {
        var model = publish.Steps[publish.CurrentStepIndex] as Step1ViewModel;
        // Do some magic
    }

    {
        publish.Steps[publish.CurrentStepIndex] = step;

        if (ModelState.IsValid)
        {
            if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(Request["next"]))
                publish.CurrentStepIndex++;
            else if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(Request["prev"]))
                publish.CurrentStepIndex--;
        }
        else if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(Request["prev"]))
        {
            publish.CurrentStepIndex--;
        }

        if (publish.Steps[publish.CurrentStepIndex].GetType() == typeof(Step1ViewModel))
        {
            var model = publish.Steps[publish.CurrentStepIndex] as Step1ViewModel;
            // Do some magic
        }
        else if (publish.Steps[publish.CurrentStepIndex].GetType() == typeof(Step2ViewModel))
        {
            var model = publish.Steps[publish.CurrentStepIndex] as Step2ViewModel;
            // Do some magic
        }

        return View(publish);
    }
