I have a viewmodel that needs data from two person models and an address:
Models:
public class Person
{
public int Id { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public int Age { get; set; }
public int Gender { get; set; }
}
public class Address
{
public int Id { get; set; }
public string Street { get; set; }
public int Zip { get; set; }
public int PersonId {get; set; }
}
Viewmodel as such
public class PersonAddViewModel
{
public int Id { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public string Street { get; set; }
}
I tried several ways to get the data in the viewmodel and pass it to the view. Several entries will be displayed.
My last method fills the view model as such:
private AppContexts db = new AppContexts();
public ActionResult ListPeople()
{
var model = new PersonAddViewModel();
var people = db.Persons;
foreach(Person p in people)
{
Address address = db.Addresses.SingleOrDefault(a => a.PersonId == p.Id)
model.Id = p.Id;
model.Name = p.Name;
model.Street = address.Street;
}
return View(model.ToList());
}
I get the error Address address = db ... "EntityCommandExecutionException failed to execute user code.
How can you populate a view model with multiple entries and move on to the view?
Final decision:
private AppContexts db = new AppContexts();
private AppContexts dbt = new AppContexts();
public ActionResult ListPeople()
{
List<PersonAddViewModel> list = new List<PersonAddViewModel>();
var people = db.Persons;
foreach(Person p in people)
{
PersonAddViewModel model = new PersonAddViewModel();
Address address = dbt.Addresses.SingleOrDefault(a => a.PersonId == p.Id)
model.Id = p.Id;
model.Name = p.Name;
model.Street = address.Street;
}
return View(list);
}
