How to read values from the querystring with ASP.N

问题:

I'm building one RESTful API using ASP.NET Core MVC and I want to use querystring parameters to specify filtering and paging on a resource that returns a collection.

In that case, I need to read the values passed in the querystring to filter and select the results to return.

I've already found out that inside the controller Get action accessing HttpContext.Request.Query returns one IQueryCollection.

The problem is that I don't know how it is used to retrieve the values. In truth, I thought the way to do was by using, for example

string page = HttpContext.Request.Query["page"]

The problem is that HttpContext.Request.Query["page"] doesn't return a string, but a StringValues.

Anyway, how does one use the IQueryCollection to actually read the querystring values?

回答1:

You can use [FromQuery] to bind a particular model to the querystring:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/mvc/models/model-binding

e.g.

[HttpGet()]
public IActionResult Get([FromQuery(Name = "page")] string page)
{...}

回答2:

You could use the ToString method on IQueryCollection which will return the desired value if a single page parameter is specified:

string page = HttpContext.Request.Query["page"].ToString();

if there are multiple values like ?page=1&page=2 then the result of the ToString call will be 1,2

But as @mike-g suggested in his answer you would better use model binding and not directly accessing the HttpContext.Request.Query object.

回答3:

ASP.NET Core will automatically bind form values, route values and query strings by name. This means you can simply do this:

[HttpGet()]
public IActionResult Get(int page)
{ ... }

---

MVC will try to bind request data to the action parameters by name ... below is a list of the data sources in the order that model binding looks through them

1. Form values: These are form values that go in the HTTP request using the POST method. (including jQuery POST requests).

2. Route values: The set of route values provided by Routing

3. Query strings: The query string part of the URI.

FYI, you can also combine the automatic and explicit approaches:

[HttpGet()]
public IActionResult Get(int page
     , [FromQuery(Name = "page-size")] int pageSize)
{ ... }

Here is a code sample I've used (with a .NET Core view):

@{
    Microsoft.Extensions.Primitives.StringValues queryVal;

    if (Context.Request.Query.TryGetValue("yourKey", out queryVal) &&
        queryVal.FirstOrDefault() == "yourValue")
    {
    }
}

回答5:

You can just create an object like this:

public class SomeQuery
{
    public string SomeParameter { get; set; }
    public int? SomeParameter2 { get; set; }
}

And then in controller just make something like that:

[HttpGet]
public IActionResult FindSomething([FromQuery] SomeQuery query)
{
    // Your implementation goes here..
}

Even better, you can create API model from:

[HttpGet]
public IActionResult GetSomething([FromRoute] int someId, [FromQuery] SomeQuery query)

to:

[HttpGet]
public IActionResult GetSomething(ApiModel model)

public class ApiModel
{
    [FromRoute]
    public int SomeId { get; set; }
    [FromQuery]
    public string SomeParameter { get; set; }
    [FromQuery]
    public int? SomeParameter2 { get; set; }
}

回答6:

StringValues is an array of strings. You can get your string value by providing an index, e.g. HttpContext.Request.Query["page"][0].

回答7:

IQueryCollection has a TryGetValue() on it that returns a value with the given key. So, if you had a query parameter called someInt, you could use it like so:

var queryString = httpContext.Request.Query;
StringValues someInt;
queryString.TryGetValue("someInt", out someInt);
var daRealInt = int.Parse(someInt);

Notice that unless you have multiple parameters of the same name, the StringValues type is not an issue.

I have a better solution for this problem,

• request is a member of abstract class ControllerBase
• GetSearchParams() is an extension method created in bellow helper class.

var searchparams = await Request.GetSearchParams();

I have created a static class with few extension methods

public static class HttpRequestExtension
{
  public static async Task<SearchParams> GetSearchParams(this HttpRequest request)
        {
            var parameters = await request.TupledParameters();

            try
            {
                for (var i = 0; i < parameters.Count; i++)
                {
                    if (parameters[i].Item1 == "_count" && parameters[i].Item2 == "0")
                    {
                        parameters[i] = new Tuple<string, string>("_summary", "count");
                    }
                }
                var searchCommand = SearchParams.FromUriParamList(parameters);
                return searchCommand;
            }
            catch (FormatException formatException)
            {
                throw new FhirException(formatException.Message, OperationOutcome.IssueType.Invalid, OperationOutcome.IssueSeverity.Fatal, HttpStatusCode.BadRequest);
            }
        }



public static async Task<List<Tuple<string, string>>> TupledParameters(this HttpRequest request)
{
        var list = new List<Tuple<string, string>>();


        var query = request.Query;
        foreach (var pair in query)
        {
            list.Add(new Tuple<string, string>(pair.Key, pair.Value));
        }

        if (!request.HasFormContentType)
        {
            return list;
        }
        var getContent = await request.ReadFormAsync();

        if (getContent == null)
        {
            return list;
        }
        foreach (var key in getContent.Keys)
        {
            if (!getContent.TryGetValue(key, out StringValues values))
            {
                continue;
            }
            foreach (var value in values)
            {
                list.Add(new Tuple<string, string>(key, value));
            }
        }
        return list;
    }
}

in this way you can easily access all your search parameters. I hope this will help many developers :)

回答9:

in .net core if you want to access querystring in our view use it like

@Context.Request.Query["yourKey"]

if we are in location where @Context is not avilable we can inject it like

@inject Microsoft.AspNetCore.Http.IHttpContextAccessor HttpContextAccessor
@if (HttpContextAccessor.HttpContext.Request.Query.Keys.Contains("yourKey"))
{
      <text>do something </text>
}

also for cookies

HttpContextAccessor.HttpContext.Request.Cookies["DeniedActions"]

回答10:

Some of the comments mention this as well, but asp net core does all this work for you.

If you have a query string that matches the name it will be available in the controller.

https://myapi/some-endpoint/123?someQueryString=YayThisWorks

[HttpPost]
[Route("some-endpoint/{someValue}")]
public IActionResult SomeEndpointMethod(int someValue, string someQueryString)
    {
        Debug.WriteLine(someValue);
        Debug.WriteLine(someQueryString);
        return Ok();
    }

Ouputs:

123
