I have a controller in my MVC app for which I'm trying to log details using a custom ActionFilterAttribute, by using the onResultExecuted method.
I read this tutorial to understand and write my own action filter. The question is how do I pass variables from the controller to the action filter?
- I want to get the input variables with which a controller is called. Say, the username/user ID.
- If (in some situations) an exception is thrown by any controller method, I would want to log the error too.
The controller -
[MyActionFilter]
public class myController : ApiController {
public string Get(string x, int y) { .. }
public string somemethod { .. }
}
The action filter -
public class MyActionFilterAttribute : ActionFilterAttribute {
public override void onActionExecuted(HttpActionExecutedContext actionExecutedContext) {
// HOW DO I ACCESS THE VARIABLES OF THE CONTROLLER HERE
// I NEED TO LOG THE EXCEPTIONS AND THE PARAMETERS PASSED TO THE CONTROLLER METHOD
}
}
I hope I have explained the problem here. Apologies if I'm missing out some basic objects here, I'm totally new to this.
