The main benefit I see in following the SPA design principles for developing rich, complex web applications is the “stateful”ness we get. For complex web application, it may be too idealistic to have just one “full” initial HTTP request to get a page, and then subsequent async calls to load further pages or data. However, we can do it module-wise i.e. certain parts of the web app follow SPA design, others may or may not follow SPA design. This is referred to as mini-spa or hybrid spa. Using AngularJs in ASP.NET MVC 6 Hosting, I have come up with a sample application which follows SPA design principles. I’m using angular route module ngRoute along with angular directive ngView to define routes – controller & view associated with each route. It is essentially MVC pattern on the client-side. Moreover, our app is now route-driven on client-side. (The browser back and fro buttons are supported)

In the sample web app, we have 2 modules. In each module, user can filter results and view/edit the record. [NOTE: using mvc music store database from CodePlex.

For each module, I've defined corresponding angular module :
ngModule musicAlbumsApp for music module
ngModule movieDvdsApp for movie module

Route configuration for music module

(function (app) {
    var routeConfig = function ($routeProvider) {
        $routeProvider.when("/", {
            controller: "musicAlbumListController",
            templateUrl: window.miniSpaApp.rootUrl + "MusicAlbums/List",
            reloadOnSearch: false
        }).when("/:genreId", {
            controller: "musicAlbumListController",
            templateUrl: window.miniSpaApp.rootUrl + "MusicAlbums/List",
            reloadOnSearch: false
        }).when("/Detail/:id", {

            controller: "musicAlbumDetailController",
            templateUrl: window.miniSpaApp.rootUrl + "MusicAlbums/Detail",
            reloadOnSearch: false        }).when("/Edit/:id", {
            controller: "musicAlbumEditController",
            templateUrl: window.miniSpaApp.rootUrl + "MusicAlbums/Edit",
            reloadOnSearch: false
        }).otherwise({ redirectTo: "/" });
    };
    routeConfig.$inject = ['$routeProvider'];
    app.config(routeConfig);
})(angular.module("musicAlbumsApp"));

Each route maps to an angular controller and a view/template. 

In our main page (MusicAlbums - Index View), we include the angular scripts and define our container div using ngView directive to load different views

@section HeadContent
{
   @Scripts.Render("~/bundles/angularMusicAlbums")
}
<div data-ng-app="musicAlbumsApp" data-ng-view="" data-ng-cloak="">
</div>

Similarly, for movie module we've defined it's route configuration and container div using ngView directive.

I have build a ASP.NET 4.5 and ASP.NET MVC 6 web app which works fine locally (IIS Express & dev server) but once I deploy it to my web server, sometimes it throws Error:

• 403.14 - Forbidden (The Web server is configured to not list the contents of this directory.)
• 404 - Not Found (The resource you are looking for has been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable)

  

SOLUTION

• Make sure the Application pool targets correct version of .NET framework (i.e .NET Framework v4.0.30319 for .NET 4.5 and 4.5.2)
• Make sure You have setup the website as an application in IIS
• Make sure the Pipeline mode of IIS Application pool is "Integrated"
• Check UrlRoutingModule-4.0 is added in the modules of that website.
• (To do that, open list of added modules by clicking "Modules" against your website, and see if the module "UrlRoutingModule-4.0" is added or not). If not, then add a module by clicking "Add Managed Module" button, where select System.Web.Routing.UrlRoutingModule as a Module type, and give "UrlRoutingModule-4.0" as its name)
• Make sure you have following element added in system.webServer section of website's web.config

<system.webServer>
<modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true"></modules> 
</system.webServer>

In most cases of HTTP Error 403.14, or 404, above are the possible causes and fixes. 

We all know how important it is to validate user input, but it’s equally important how we present validation errors to the user. Take the following form you can see below:

The email field needs to be optional but any address entered must be valid. If a validation error occurs, it should replace the optional label with the error message. Behind the scenes I’m using Data Annotations to validate the email address, so any errors will be passed into the ModelState. ASP.NET MVC 6 has built-in support for showing these errors (using the ValidateMessageFor helper) so it’s easy to write a wrapper around that, supplying the ‘optional’ text as a parameter.

Here’s an extension method for the HtmlHelper:
public static class ExtensionMethods

{
 public static MvcHtmlString HelpMessageFor<TModel, TProperty>(this HtmlHelper<TModel> htmlHelper, Expression<Func<TModel, TProperty>> expression, string helpText)
{
        var validation = htmlHelper.ValidationMessageFor(expression);
        if (validation == null)
            return new MvcHtmlString("<span class='help-inline muted'>" + helpText + "</span>");
        else
            return validation;
    }
}

Here’s it’s usage:

<fieldset>
  <div class="control-group">
        @Html.LabelFor(x => x.EmailAddress, "Email", new { @class = "control-label" })
        <div class="controls">
            @Html.TextBoxFor(x => x.EmailAddress, new { @class = "input-xlarge", placeholder = "Enter an email address" })
            @Html.HelpMessageFor(x => x.EmailAddress, "Optional")
        </div>
    </div>
</fieldset>

Good News! Microsoft has been released ASP.NET MVC 6 on 12 May 2014 at TechEd North America, as part of ASP.NET vNext, the MVC, Web API, and Web Pages frameworks will be merged into one framework. Microsoft feels that System.Web needs to be removed because it is actually quite expensive. A typical HttpContext object graph can consume 30.000 of memory per request. When working with small JSON-style requests this represents a disproportionately high cost. With ASP.NET MVC 6 new design, the pre-request overhead drops to roughly 2000.

The new ASP.NET MVC 6 assumes you are familiar with either MVC 5 or Web API 2. If not, here is some terminology that is used in ASP.NET MVC. The new framework removes a lot of overlap between the existing MVC and Web API frameworks. It uses a common set of abstractions for routing, action selection, filters, model binding, and so on. You can use the framework to create both UI (HTML) and web APIs.

Features of ASP.NET vNext & ASP.NET MVC 6

• A controller handles HTTP requests and executes application logic.
• Actions are methods on a controller that get invoked to handle HTTP requests. The return value from an action is used to construct the HTTP response.
• Razor syntax is a simple programming syntax for embedding server-based code in a web page.
• Routing is the mechanism that selects which action to invoke for a particular HTTP request, usually based on the URL path and the HTTP verb.
• A view is a component that renders HTML. Controllers can use views when the HTTP response contains HTML.
  
• ASP.NET vNext includes new cloud-optimized versions of MVC, Web API, Web Pages, SignalR, and Entity Framework.
• The welcome page is not too interesting, so lets’s enable the app to serve static files.
  
• Mono is a Supported Platform. In the past the support story for Mono was essentially “we hope it runs, but if it doesn’t then you need to talk to Xamarin”. Now Microsoft is billing Mono as the official cross-platform CLR for ASP.NET vNext.
  
• ASP.NET vNext support true side-by-side deployment. If your application is using cloud-optimized subset of ASP.NET vNext, you can deploy all of your dependencies including the .NET vNext (cloud optimized) by uploading bin to hosting environment.
  
• Cross Platform Development. Not only is Microsoft planning for cross-platform deployment, they are also enabling cross-platform development.

Today, we are going to discuss about create RSS feed on ASP.NET MVC 6 Hosting. The RSS classes that we will be describing are available in all types of ASP.NET applications, not only the web-based onces. But we think displaying a blog item on your website is great and relatively simple example of consuming RSS feeds in ASP.NET.

There actually is built-in RSS support in ASP.NET. We have not been aware of that support for some time and occasionally used the third-party library RSS.NET. It turns out that we do not need a separate library any longer. Here is an example MVC controller that refers to the SyndicationFeed and SyndicationItem classes in its Index action method.

using System.Web.Mvc;
using System.ServiceModel.Syndication;
using System.Xml;
using System.Linq;namespace Antrix.Web.Controllers
{
    public class HomeController : Controller
    {
        public ActionResult Index()
        {
            ViewBag.Message = "Welcome to ASP.NET MVC!";
            const string feedUrl =
            "http://yourdomain.com/feeds/posts/default?alt=rss";
           SyndicationFeed feed = null;
           using (XmlReader reader = XmlReader.Create(feedUrl))
            {
                feed = SyndicationFeed.Load(reader);
            }
            if (feed != null)
            {
                SyndicationItem item = feed.Items.First<SyndicationItem>();
                ViewBag.RssItem = item;         
            }           
             return View();
        }
        public ActionResult About()
        {
            return View();
       }
    }
}
The Index method will reads a feed of the site that you are reading right now. It puts the first item (which we assume represents the last post that has been published) in the ViewBag. Normally we use model classes to refer to data within my MVC views, but we want to keep things simple. We have added code to show the title and summary of the last post, and a link to the full post.

@{
    ViewBag.Title = "Home Page";
}
<h2>@ViewBag.Message</h2>
<p>
    To learn more about ASP.NET MVC visit <a href="http://asp.net/mvc" title="ASP.NET MVC Website">http://asp.net/mvc</a>.
</p>
<div>
From our blog:  
<div style="font-weight: bold; padding: 10px">@ViewBag.RssItem.Title.Text</div>
<div style="clear: both; padding: 10px">@Html.Raw(@ViewBag.RssItem.Summary.Text)</div>
<div style="clear: both; padding: 10px"><a href="@ViewBag.RssItem.Links[0].Uri" target="_blank">Show full post</a></div>
</div>
Using the SyndicationFeed and SyndicationItem classes it becomes rather easy to create your own web-based (or Windows-based, if you prefer) RSS reader.
