I would like to embed svg directly into my ASP.net-MVC view so that the output looks something like this:
<html>
<body>
<svg> ... </svg>
</body>
</html>
With PHP I would do this like so:
<? include('image.svg'); ?>
I tried @Html.Partial('image.svg')
but got an error. Is there a way to fix this or another method I can try?
Embed your SVG into a cshtml view file instead of a .svg file, then you should be able to use @Html.Partial to render it.
Your partial would then look like
@Html.Partial("~/Views/pathtosvg/svg.cshtml")
Renaming SVG files and using Html.Partial should do the trick, but I didn't like to be renaming files in order to achieve it. So, this way, you can keep your files as they are.
@Html.Raw(File.ReadAllText(Server.MapPath("~/image.svg")))
Can you use just file include same as php file?
Example:
<!--#include file="image.svg"-->
This syntax should work similar to php include, but for asp.net
