Lessons MVC Versions What is MVC? MVC and “Auto-Magic” Creating a New MVC Project A Few Notes About Databases for Developers C# and Visual Studio Notes and Tips Lab 1: MVC Q&A quiz Create an MVC Project After completing this module students will be able to: Describe the key features and use of MVC. Explain the history and versions of MVC. Create a simple MVC project. Module 2: Routing MVC URLs don’t point to pages or files, they point to controllers. Or rather, they are routed to controllers. In this module we will see how routing gives you the flexibility to later restructure your application without breaking existing URLs and separates site navigation from the Models, Controllers and Views. Lessons The Routes Collection Debugging Routes Adding Routes Web API Routes Page Routes MVC Routes Attribute Based Routes Routes and Parameters Ignored Routes Routing Order Lab 2: Explore MVC Default and Custom Routing Q&A quiz Explore the Sample Project Test the Default Routes Add a Custom Route for a Legacy Page Add a Custom Route for the About Page Add a Custom Route to Lookup Customers After completing this module students will be able to: Explain the types and uses of ASP.NET Routing. Understand the default MVC routing. Add custom routes for legacy pages, and MVC controllers and actions. Module 3: Controllers and Actions Controllers are the heart of MVC. User requests are routed to Controllers, Controllers access models, Controllers apply business logic, Controllers pass the data to Views and then the HTML generated by the View is returned to the user. In this module we will create controller classes and write action methods. Lessons Controllers Creating Controller Classes Actions Creating Actions Common Issues for Actions Working with Parameters Action Attributes Restricting Access to Actions and Controllers Improving Performance with Caching Dealing with Controller and Action Exceptions Passing Data to Views Action Filters Best Practices Lab 1: Controllers and Actions Q&A quiz Add Controllers Control Access to Controllers and Actions After completing this module students will be able to: Plan and create controller classes. Create controller actions. Handle controller and action exceptions. Create routes, controllers and actions that accept parameters. Use controller and action attributes. Module 4: Entity Framework This module provides an introduction to the Entity Framework to help you get started with MVC Models without having to write a lot of database code. The Entity Framework is not part of MVC or required by MVC, but is one of the quickest ways of building model classes for an MVC project. Lessons Entities? Context? Getting the Entity Framework Resources Database First, Model First and Code First Core Objects Database First Model First Code First Testing with Standard Data Calling SQL Through the Entity Framework Context Tips, Caching, Monitoring and the Fluent API Lab 4: Entity Framework Q&A quiz Create a Code First Entity Framework Application Explore the Database Add a Connection String After completing this module students will be able to: Describe the key features of the Entity Framework. Describe the use of Code First, Model First and Data First. Quickly add a SQL data tier to a .NET project. Module 5: Models A Model represents the application’s data. The model typically defines the business objects as classes, retrieves and stores data to the database and maintains the model state. While the most common model framework for MVC is the Entity Framework, students can use other frameworks or create their own model code. In this module we will explore using Models and View Models to represent our data. Lessons Models MVC without the Entity Framework Model Tiers Model Attributes Display Attributes Validation Attributes Other Attributes Additional MVC Attributes View Models Best Practices Lab 5: Models Q&A quiz Add Data Validation Attributes Add an Entity Relationship After completing this module students will be able to: Describe Model and View Model classes. Create Model classes, with and without the Entity Framework. Add Display Attributes for use with Razor Views. Add Validation and other Attributes. Create and use View Models. Module 6: Views A View Engine takes data provided by a controller and a view file and then creates the HTML to return to the user’s browser. In this module we will review the available View Engines and explore the Razor View Engine. Lessons Route to Controller to Action to View View Engines “Auto-magic” and Views Controller Helpers for Views Passing Data to Views View Bags “Model.” vs. “model.” vs. “@model” Razor HTML, CSS and Razor Views Creating Razor Views Embedded Razor Code Razor HTML Helpers HTML Helpers for Forms Mobile-Specific Views Layouts Partial Views Best Practices Lab 6: Views Q&A quiz Review the Project Format the Product List Highlight Items That Need to be Reordered Add a Partial View for Products Add a Data Driven Dropdown List Validate the HTML Optional – Add a Sortable Grid After completing this module students will be able to: Q&A quiz Review the Project Format the Product List Highlight Items That Need to be Reordered Add a Partial View for Products Add a Data Driven Dropdown List Validate the HTML Optional – Add a Sortable Grid Module 7: Larger projects tend to have separate areas of responsibility, which MVC supports as Models, Views and Controllers. As applications grow, your Models, Views and Controllers folders will start to collect a large number of items and will become more difficult to manage. To better support larger and more complex projects MVC supports the concept of Areas to break a project into sections. Lessons Areas Creating Areas Linking between Areas HTML Helpers After completing this module students will be able to: Describe the uses of MVC Areas. Create and manage MVC Areas. Use the Razor HTML ActionLink helpers to navigate between Areas. Module 8: Web API In this module we will take what students already know about MVC to quickly create RESTful web services using ASP.NET Web API. Web API could even be thought of as MVC without the “V”. Students still create routes, models and controllers, but instead of returning views you return data. Lessons A Brief History of Web Services Add Web Services to an MVC Project MVC Actions vs. Web API Data Formats – XML & JSON Consuming Web Services Calling a Web Service from Server Side Code Calling a Web Service from Ajax and jQuery Starting a new Web API or MVC plus Web API Project Adding Web API to an Existing MVC Project Web API Routing Web API Controllers HTTP Verbs Web API Actions Returning Data – Best Practices Using IHttpActionResult Web API Help Pages RESTful Web Services OData OData Queries OData Updates Differences Between a Web API Project and an OData Project Adding REST and OData to a Project Lab 8: Web API and REST Q&A quiz Return a Simple Value Return a Vendor List as JSON Basic Web API Web API with a Model Add a Web API Help Page to Your MVC Project REST and OData After completing this module students will be able to: Describe web services and ASP.NET solutions. Choose between traditional ASP.NET web services, Web API and REST/OData solutions. Create a Web API project. Plan and navigate REST URLs. Create OData queries and updates. Create REST/OData web service solutions. Module 9: Where to Go From Here Model View Controller (MVC) is an architectural pattern. It is a collection of tools (classes and wizards) and a pattern for software development. Your team will need to need to do some homework before starting an MVC or REST project. In this module we will take a look at what you will need to know before starting the project. Lessons Describe web services and ASP.NET solutions. Choose between traditional ASP.NET web services, Web API and REST/OData solutions. Create a Web API project. Plan and navigate REST URLs. Create OData queries and updates. Create REST/OData web service solutions. After completing this module students will be able to: Plan the structure of a new MVC or REST project. PreRequisites Before attending this course, your students must have: Strong skills in C#. Good HTML5 and CSS3 skills. An understanding of how mobile devices impact your web projects. Basic SQL Server experience. Audience This class is for new web site developers needing to learn the full MVC collection of features and for experienced developers new to ASP.NET MVC.
