So I have a model that contains a list of meta data items that is customizable per user.
public class MyModel {
public int ID { get; set; }
public String Name { get; set; }
public DateTime Created { get; set; }
// Need to diplay each as a column
public List<MetaData> Data { get; set; }
}
public class MetaData {
public int ID { get; set; }
public String Name { get; set; }
public String Label { get; set; }
public String Value { get; set; }
}
For each metadata item on MyModel I need to add a column to the WebGrid that has the name as the column name, the label as the header, and the value outputted for each MyModel.
@{
WebGrid grid = new WebGrid(source: Model, rowsPerPage: 5, canPage: true);
List<WebGridColumn> cols = new List<WebGridColumn>();
cols.Add(grid.Column("Name", "Name"));
cols.Add(grid.Column("Created"));
for (int i = 0; i < Model.FirstOrDefault().Data.Count; i++)
{
cols.Add(grid.Column(Model.FirstOrDefault().Data[i].Name, Model.FirstOrDefault().Data[i].Label,
format: item => @<text>@item.Data[i].Value</text>
));
}
}
@grid.GetHtml(
tableStyle: "table",
htmlAttributes: new { id = "MyGrid" },
columns: cols)
The metadata columns are shared between all MyModels so each one will not have a new set of columns. The name and label will be the same throughout the different MyModel's. If anyone can help, it would be much appreciated.
