I am trying to figure out how to access the current absolute Uri -- i.e. the absolute url of the view that is currently being rendered -- from a user class in .Net Core 1.1 I found this link but it seems to be outdated and throws error after error: Getting absolute URLs using ASP.NET Core MVC 6 In my Startup.cs I have under ConfigureServices : services.AddSingleton<IHttpContextAccessor, HttpContextAccessor>(); In my Startup.cs I have under Configure: IHttpContextAccessor httpContextAccessor = app.ApplicationServices.GetRequiredService<IHttpContextAccessor>(); Extensions.Context.Configure

I want to get the current method name of my ASP.NET Core controller I have tried getting the method name through reflection: [HttpGet] public async Task<IActionResult> CreateProcess(int catId) { string methodName = System.Reflection.MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod().Name; but this gives me a value of MoveNext and not CreateProcess Take note I don't want to use the ViewContext string methodName = ActionContext.RouteData.Values["action"].ToString(); as I lowercase my urls via the startup settings.The above will get me createprocess instead of CreateProcess I preferably want an easy one-liner and not

I know in controllers, you can write [Authorize("policyName")] without an issue, but is there any way to use a policy in a view? I'd rather not use User.IsInRole(...) every single time I want to authorize some HTML. Edit: Here's some code Startup.cs -- Policy Declaration services.AddAuthorization(options => { options.AddPolicy("testPolicy", policy => { policy.RequireAuthenticatedUser() .RequireRole("RoleOne", "RoleTwo", "RoleThree") .RequireClaim(ClaimTypes.Email); }); }); Admin Controller [Authorize("testPolicy")] public class AdminController : Controller { public IActionResult Index() {

I can find a remove method to remove an object from IMemoryCache by its key. Is there a way to reset the whole cache and remove all objects? Edit: How to clear MemoryCache? Dispose method provided in the link gives me an exception in asp.net 5. ObjectDisposedException: Cannot access a disposed object. Object name: 'Microsoft.Extensions.Caching.Memory.MemoryCache'. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/performance/caching/memory Section Cache dependencies Using a CancellationTokenSource allows multiple cache entries to be evicted as a group This code worked for me: public class

I have a ASP.NET MVC 6 (beta-4) app. public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services) { // Logging services.AddLogging(); // ... } public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IHostingEnvironment env, ILoggerFactory loggerfactory) { // Add the console logger. loggerfactory.AddConsole(minLevel: LogLevel.Warning); // ... } And I have a controller... public class HomeController : Controller { ILogger _logger; public HomeController(ILogger logger) { _logger = logger; } // ... } But when I'm not getting the service registered correctly somehow: InvalidOperationException: Unable to

I want to create an entity in asp.net core mvc. The entity represents an exercise workout, and it has a child collection of exercise sets: public class Workout { public DateTime Date { get; set; } public string Name { get; set; } public string Description { get; set; } public virtual ICollection<Set> Sets { get; set; } } public class Set { public int Id { get; set; } public int ExerciseId { get; set; } public int WorkoutId { get; set; } public decimal Weight { get; set; } public int Reps { get; set; } public virtual Exercise Exercise { get; set; } public virtual Workout Workout { get; set; } }

I understood by watching this video with Rowan Miller https://channel9.msdn.com/Series/Whats-New-with-ASPNET-5/06 (at minute 22) that the way of configuring Entity Framework Core (previously known as EF7) into an ASP.NET Core 1.0 app (previously known as ASP.NET 5) in Startup.cs is as follows: public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services) { //Entity Framework 7 scoped per request?? services.AddEntityFramework() .AddSqlServer() .AddDbContext<MyDbContext>(options => { options .UseSqlServer(Configuration["Data:DefaultConnection:ConnectionString"]); }); //MVC 6 services.AddMvc(); }

I get the following error in the browser when I enable BrowserLink for my ASP.Net Core 1.1 application and I think because of that the BrowserLink does not work. Browser Link: Exception thrown when trying to invoke Browser Link extension callback "microsoft.visualstudio.web.browserlink.sourcemappingextensionfactory.getCssMappingData": System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at Microsoft.VisualStudio.Web.Extensions.Common.Helpers.VsWebUrlUtil

Been looking every where for a tutorial or something. I've been trying to implement my old generic repository pattern for MVC5 into a new MVC6 project. I set up 3 class library's .Core , .Data and .Service , However there's an issue with IDBset , seems my intellisense doesn't like it, I tried to add System.Data and Entity framework 6 but without any luck (cant find it...confusing). After roaming google I decided to ask here, is there a tutorial with the correct way or can someone throw up a very simple MVC6 Generic Repository pattern?
