.NET5 MVC CRUD Operations Using Entity Framework Core

In this article, we will learn about .Net5 MVC CRUD operation using Entity Framework Core.

MVC:

The Model-View-Controller(MVC) is an architectural pattern. MVC divides UI applications into 3 different layers. Each layer will have its own responsibility.

An MVC application on encountering the user request will be sent to the controller. The controller will query the required data from the database and then furnished our data into 'Model' and then select appropriate 'View'. The 'View' will render the data or logic inside of the 'Model'. The 'Model' is the bridge between 'Controller' and 'View' for transferring the data. So in  MVC, the 'Controller' depends on both 'Model' and 'View', the 'View' depends on 'Model'.

Create A .Net5 MVC Application:

Begin our journey by creating a .Net5 MVC application.

Visual Studio users can easily create a .Net5 MVC templated application. On Creating application Visual Studio UI shows different template options in that we have to select "ASP .NET Core Web App(model - view -controller)".

Here for this demo, I'm using Visual Studio Code Editor and .NET CLI. Run the below .NET CLI command to create .Net5 MVC application.
CLI Command To MVC Application:
dotnet new mvc -n your_project_name
After creating a project, we need to aware of few basic things like:

MVC DI(Dependency Injection) Service - To enable MVC related services with DI in 'Startup.cs' we need to register 'AddControllersWithViews'

Endpoint Middleware - MVC supports 2 different approaches of routing like 'Conventional Based Routing' and 'Attribute-Based Routing'. So in the endpoint middleware by default configures with conventional based routing on creating the project.

_ViewImports.cshtml - File used to configure namespaces.

_ViewStart.cshtml - File helps to load the master layout.

Shared/_Layout.cshtml - Default master layout.

wwwroot - Folder to store static files like 'js', 'css', 'images', etc.

appsettings.{environment variable name}.json - Configuration file.

Entity Framework Core:

Entity Framework Core is an Object/Relational Mapping(ORM) framework. EF Core makes database communication more fluent and easy. 
EF Core supports:
  • Database First Approach.
  • Code First Approach.
Code First Approach means first we will create c# POCO classes and then create the database tables. Code First Approach has one more sub-category like 'Code First With Existing Database'. So the 'Code First With Existing Database' can work with the already created tables in the database which is an ideal choice for real-time development. Our demo will be implemented using 'Code First With Existing Database'.

Install EF Core Nuget:

Now install ef core and SQL ef core extension Nuget package into our application.
Package Manager(Visual Studio):
Install-Package Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore -Version 5.0.6
Install-Package Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.SqlServer -Version 5.0.6

CLI Commands(Visual Studio Code):
dotnet add package Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore --version 5.0.6
dotnet add package Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.SqlServer --version 5.0.6

Sample SQL Script:

To follow the demo, run the SQL script to generate the table.
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Gadgets](
	[Id] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
	[ProductName] [varchar](max) NULL,
	[Brand] [varchar](max) NULL,
	[Cost] [decimal](18, 0) NOT NULL,
	[ImageName] [varchar](1024) NULL,
	[Type] [varchar](128) NULL,
	[CreatedDate] [datetime] NULL,
	[ModifiedDate] [datetime] NULL,
PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED 
(
	[Id] ASC
)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY] TEXTIMAGE_ON [PRIMARY]

Set Up EF Core DbContext:

First, let's create POCO class that represents our table. So let's create a new folder 'Data', inside of it create one more folder like 'Entities'. Inside of the 'Entities' folder creates our POCO class.
Data/Entities/Gadgets.cs:
namespace Dotnet5.MVC.CRUD.EF.Data.Entities
{
    public class Gadgets
    {
        public int Id { get; set; }
        public string ProductName { get; set; }
        public string Brand { get; set; }
        public decimal Cost { get; set; }
        public string Type { get; set; }
    }
}
In EF Core DbContext is like a database that manages all POCO classes(classes represent tables). Inside the 'Data' folder create a context class.
Data/MyWorldDbContext.cs:
using Dotnet5.MVC.CRUD.EF.Data.Entities;
using Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore;

namespace Dotnet5.MVC.CRUD.EF.Data
{
    public class MyWorldDbContext : DbContext
    {
        public MyWorldDbContext(DbContextOptions<MyWorldDbContext> options) : base(options)
        {

        }
        public DbSet<Gadgets> Gadgets { get; set; }
    }
}
Add database connection string into 'appsetting.Development.json'.
appsettings.Development.json:
"ConnectionStrings":{
    "MyWorldDbConnection":"your_connection"
}
Register 'MyWorlDbContext' into the dependency services. 
services.AddDbContext<MyWorldDbContext>(options =>
{
	options.UseSqlServer(Configuration.GetConnectionString("MyWorldDbConnection"));
});

Read Operation:

First, let's create a 'Model' class for our read operation.
Models/GadgetsContainerVm.cs:
using System.Collections.Generic;
using Dotnet5.MVC.CRUD.EF.Data.Entities;

namespace Dotnet5.MVC.CRUD.EF.Models
{
    public class GadgetsContainerVm
    {
        public List<Gadgets> AllGadgets { get; set; }
    }
}
Now in the 'Controllers' folder add a new controller like 'GadgetsController.cs'. Now for our read operation let's add a new action method and name it like 'All'. So our action method contains logic to fetch the data from the database and then pass data to  'Model' and then invoke appropriate 'View'.
Controllers/GadgetsController.cs:
using System.Linq;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using Dotnet5.MVC.CRUD.EF.Data;
using Dotnet5.MVC.CRUD.EF.Models;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc;
using Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore;

namespace Dotnet5.MVC.CRUD.EF.Controllers
{
    public class GadgetsController : Controller
    {
        private readonly MyWorldDbContext _myWorldDbContext;
        public GadgetsController(MyWorldDbContext myWorldDbContext)
        {
            _myWorldDbContext = myWorldDbContext;
        }

        [HttpGet]
        public async Task<IActionResult> All()
        {
            var allGadtets = await _myWorldDbContext.Gadgets.OrderByDescending(_ => _.Id).ToListAsync();
            var model = new GadgetsContainerVm
            {
                AllGadgets = allGadtets
            };
            return View("Index",model);
        }
    }
}
  • (Line: 10) To make a class as a controller it should inherit 'Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.Controller'.
  • (Line: 12-16) Injecting our database context.
  • (Line: 18) Action method decorated with 'HttpGet'. That HTTP verb represents the type of request that can invoke our action method.
  • (Line: 19-27) Fetching data from the database and then saving it into the 'Model' object. Finally, invoke the 'View' by sending 'Model' data.
Now let's create our 'View'. In the 'Views' folder create a new folder like 'Gadgets'(this folder name must be matched with our controller name so that controller can check the view in that folder). Now add 'Index.cshtml'(View) in 'Gadgets' folder.
Views/Gadgets/Index.cshtml:
@model GadgetsContainerVm
<div>
    <table class="table table-dark table-striped">
        <thead>
            <tr>
                <th scope="col">Id</th>
                <th scope="col">Product Name</th>
                <th scope="col">Brand</th>
                <th scope="col">Cost</th>
                <th scope="col">Type</th>
            </tr>
        </thead>
        <tbody>
            @foreach (var item in Model.AllGadgets)
            {
                <tr>
                    <th scope="row">@item.Id</th>
                    <td>@item.ProductName</td>
                    <td>@item.Brand</td>
                    <td>@item.Cost</td>
                    <td>@item.Type</td>
                </tr>
            }
        </tbody>
    </table>
</div>
  • (Line: 1) Need to define our model using '@model'
  • (Line: 14) Looping all our data to bind as table rows
Now let's access our route "https://localhost:5001/gadgets/all".

Create Operation:

Let's create an action method for 'Create Operation' of HTTP Get request.
Controllers/GadgetsController.cs:
[HttpGet]
public IActionResult Create()
{
	return View("Create");
}
  • Simple HTTP Get request action method that return the view(eg: "Create.cshtml").
Now let's create an HTTP Post request action method for our 'Create Operation'.
Controllers/GadgetsController.cs:
[HttpPost]
[ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
public async Task<IActionResult> Create(Gadgets model)
{
	_myWorldDbContext.Gadgets.Add(model);
	await _myWorldDbContext.SaveChangesAsync();
	return RedirectToAction("All");
}
  • (Line: 1) Decorated with the 'HttpPost' attribute to specify the type HTTP request can invoke the action method.
  • (Line: 2) Decorated with the 'ValidateAntiForgeryToken' to protect the form posted data.
  • (Line: 3) Our overloaded 'Create' action method takes the 'Gadgets' type as an input parameter. So on form post, all form data will be stored into this parameter.
  • (Line: 4-6) Saving the new record into the database. After saving we will navigate users to 'All' action method
Now create 'Create.cshtml' view file in the folder 'Views/Gadgets'.
Views/Gadgets/Create.cshtml:
@model Dotnet5.MVC.CRUD.EF.Data.Entities.Gadgets

<div>
    <form aps-action="create" method="post">
        <div class="mb-3">
            <label for="txtProductName" class="form-label">Product Name</label>
            <input asp-for="ProductName" type="text" class="form-control" id="txtProductName" >
        </div>
        <div class="mb-3">
            <label for="txtBrand" class="form-label">Brand</label>
            <input asp-for="Brand" type="text" class="form-control" id="txtBrand" >
        </div>
        <div class="mb-3">
            <label for="txtCost" class="form-label">Cost</label>
            <input asp-for="Cost" type="text" class="form-control" id="txtCost" >
        </div>
        <div class="mb-3">
            <label for="txtType" class="form-label">Type</label>
            <input asp-for="Type" type="text" class="form-control" id="txtType" >
        </div>
        
        <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Submit</button>
    </form>
</div>
  • (Line: 1) Defined 'Model' type.
  • (Line: 4) The 'asp-action' attribute to specify the action name as its value. We also need to configure the 'method' attribute and its value should be 'post'.
  • All input fields in the form decorated with 'asp-for' attribute. So 'asp-for' attribute value must match with the properties of the 'Gadget' type.
Now add the button in  'Views/Gadgets/Index.cshtml' that will navigate to our 'Create' page.
Views/Gadgets/Index.csthml
@model GadgetsContainerVm
<!-- Code hidden for display purpose -->
<div>
    <a href="/gadgets/create" class="btn btn-primary">Create</a>
    <table class="table table-dark table-striped">
    </table>
</div>
step:1
step2:
step:3

Update Operation:

Now let's create the 'Update Operation' action method for the HTTP GET request.
Controllers/GadgetsController.cs:
[HttpGet]
public async Task<IActionResult> Edit(int id)
{
	var gadget = await _myWorldDbContext.Gadgets.Where(_ => _.Id == id).FirstOrDefaultAsync();
	if (gadget == null)
	{
		return NotFound();
	}
	return View("Edit", gadget);
}
  • (Line: 2) Method input parameter 'id' will be read from the URL query parameter.
  • In this HTTP GET request method fetching the data to be edited.
Now let's create the 'Update Operation' action method for the HTTP POST request.
Controllers/GadgetController.cs:
[HttpPost]
[ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
public async Task<IActionResult> Edit(Gadgets modelToUpdate)
{
	_myWorldDbContext.Update(modelToUpdate);
	await _myWorldDbContext.SaveChangesAsync();
	return RedirectToAction("All");
}
  • (Line: 1) Decorated with 'HttpPost'.
  • (Line: 2) Decorated with 'ValidateAntiForgeryToken' attribute for protecting form data posting.
  • (Line: 3-8) Updating the form posted data to database and then redirecting to 'All' action method.
Now let's create our new  view 'Edit.cshtml'. Here 'Edit.cshtml' contains HTML similar to 'Create.cshtml' only difference like we need to maintain our record 'Id' value in hidden field.
Views/Gadgets/Edit.cshtml:
@model Dotnet5.MVC.CRUD.EF.Data.Entities.Gadgets

<div>
    <form aps-action="Edit" method="post">
        <h4>Update</h4>
        <input asp-for="Id" type="hidden" class="form-control" id="txtProductName" >
        <div class="mb-3">
            <label for="txtProductName" class="form-label">Product Name</label>
            <input asp-for="ProductName" type="text" class="form-control" id="txtProductName" >
        </div>
        <div class="mb-3">
            <label for="txtBrand" class="form-label">Brand</label>
            <input asp-for="Brand" type="text" class="form-control" id="txtBrand" >
        </div>
        <div class="mb-3">
            <label for="txtCost" class="form-label">Cost</label>
            <input asp-for="Cost" type="text" class="form-control" id="txtCost" >
        </div>
        <div class="mb-3">
            <label for="txtType" class="form-label">Type</label>
            <input asp-for="Type" type="text" class="form-control" id="txtType" >
        </div>
        
        <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Submit</button>
    </form>
</div>
  • (Line: 6) Hiden field to store our 'Id' value.
Now add the edit button for each record in the table of 'Index.cshtml' 
@model GadgetsContainerVm
<!-- Code hidden for display purpose -->
<div>
    <a href="/gadgets/create" class="btn btn-primary">Create</a>
    <table class="table table-dark table-striped">
       
        <tbody>
            @foreach (var item in Model.AllGadgets)
            {
                <tr>
                  
				  
                    <td>
                        <a class="btn btn-primary" href='@($"edit?id={@item.Id}")'>Edit</a>
                    </td>
                </tr>
            }
        </tbody>
    </table>
</div>
  • (Line: 14) Configure 'Edit' but with appropriate route.
step:1
step:2
step:3

Delete Operation:

Now let's create 'Delete' operation action method for HTTP POST request.
Controllers/GadgetsController.cs:
[HttpPost]
[ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
public async Task<IActionResult> Delete(int id)
{
	var gadgetToDelete = await _myWorldDbContext.Gadgets.Where(_ => _.Id == id).FirstOrDefaultAsync();
	if (gadgetToDelete != null)
	{
		_myWorldDbContext.Gadgets.Remove(gadgetToDelete);
		await _myWorldDbContext.SaveChangesAsync();
	}
	return RedirectToAction("All");
}
  • (Line: 1) Decorated with 'HttpPost' attribute.
  • (Line: 2) Decorated with 'ValidateAntiForgeryToken' to avoid forgery request.
  • (Line: 3-12) Based on query parameter 'id' value fetch the record form the database and then delete it from the database and finally navigate to 'All' action method.
In 'Index.cshtml', we need add 'Delete' button and need to configure Bootstrap Modal popup to display the delete confirmation.
Views/Gadgets/Index.csthml:
@model GadgetsContainerVm
<!-- Code hidden for display purpose -->
<div>
    <a href="/gadgets/create" class="btn btn-primary">Create</a>
    <table class="table table-dark table-striped">
        </thead>
        <tbody>
            @foreach (var item in Model.AllGadgets)
            {
                <tr>
                    <td>
                        <a class="btn btn-primary" href='@($"edit?id={@item.Id}")'>Edit</a>|
                        <button class="btn btn-danger" type="button" onclick="deleteGadget(@item.Id)">Delete</button>
                    </td>
                </tr>
            }
        </tbody>
    </table>
</div>

<div class="modal fade" id="deleteModal" tabindex="-1" aria-labelledby="exampleModalLabel" aria-hidden="true">
  <div class="modal-dialog">
    <div class="modal-content">

      <div class="modal-body">
        <h4>Are your sure, you want to delete?</h4>
      </div>
      <div class="modal-footer">
        <button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" data-bs-dismiss="modal">Close</button>
        <form method="POST" id="deleteForm">
        <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Delete</button>

        </form>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>
  • (Line: 13) Added the 'Delete' button. It click event registered to a method 'deleteGadget'.
  • (Line: 21-37) Html code for Bootstrap Modal.
  • (Line: 31) Here delete button is to invoke our Http Post request 'Delete' action and this button need to be encapsulated with form tag to inoke the post request. The URL will be append to the 'Form' tag dynamically through javascript code(will be show in next step).
Now go to 'wwwroot/js/site.js' file and add the below script.
wwwroot/js/site.js:
function deleteGadget(id) {
    let url = "/gadgets/delete?id="+ id;
    let formElement = document.getElementById("deleteForm");
    formElement.setAttribute("action", url);
    $("#deleteModal").modal('show');
}
  • (Line: 2) Framing our HTTP Post request URL.
  • (Line: 3) Fetching the Form element. This is the form encapsulated our confirm 'Delete' button on bootsrap modal popup.
  • (Line: 4) Adding the 'action' attribute to 'Form' tag and it's value is URL we just framed.
  • (Line: 5) Opens the Bootstrap Modal popup.
So that's all about the .Net5 MVC application CRUD operations using entity framework core.

Angular 14 Reactive Forms Example

In this article, we will explore the Angular(14) reactive forms with an example. Reactive Forms: Angular reactive forms support model-driven techniques to handle the form's input values. The reactive forms state is immutable, any form filed change creates a new state for the form. Reactive forms are built around observable streams, where form inputs and values are provided as streams of input values, which can be accessed synchronously. Some key notations that involve in reactive forms are like: FormControl - each input element in the form is 'FormControl'. The 'FormControl' tracks the value and validation status of form fields. FormGroup - Track the value and validate the state of the group of 'FormControl'. FormBuilder - Angular service which can be used to create the 'FormGroup' or FormControl instance quickly. Form Array - That can hold infinite form control, this helps to create dynamic forms. Create An Angular(14) Application: Let'

ReactJS(v18) JWT Authentication Using HTTP Only Cookie

In this article, we will implement the ReactJS application authentication using the HTTP-only cookie. HTTP Only Cookie: In a SPA(Single Page Application) Authentication JWT token either can be stored in browser 'LocalStorage' or in 'Cookie'. Storing the JWT token inside of the cookie then the cookie should be HTTP Only. The HTTP-ONly cookie nature is that it will be only accessible by the server application. Client apps like javascript-based apps can't access the HTTP-Only cookie. So if we use the authentication with HTTP-only JWT cookie then we no need to implement the custom logic like adding authorization header or storing token data, etc at our client application. Because once the user authenticated cookie will be automatically sent to the server by the browser on every API call. Authentication API: To authenticate our client application with JWT HTTP-only cookie, I developed a NetJS(which is a node) Mock API. Check the GitHub link and read the document on G

Angular 14 State Management CRUD Example With NgRx(14)

In this article, we are going to implement the Angular(14) state management CRUD example with NgRx(14) NgRx Store For State Management: In an angular application to share consistent data between multiple components, we use NgRx state management. Using NgRx state helps to avoid unwanted API calls, easy to maintain consistent data, etc. The main building blocks for the NgRx store are: Actions - NgRx actions represents event to trigger the reducers to save the data into the stores. Reducer - Reducer's pure function, which is used to create a new state on data change. Store - The store is the model or entity that holds the data. Selector - Selector to fetch the slices of data from the store to angular components. Effects - Effects deals with external network calls like API. The effect gets executed based the action performed Ngrx State Management flow: The angular component needs data for binding.  So angular component calls an action that is responsible for invoking the API call.  Aft

Unit Testing Asp.NetCore Web API Using xUnit[.NET6]

In this article, we are going to write test cases to an Asp.NetCore Web API(.NET6) application using the xUnit. xUnit For .NET: The xUnit for .Net is a free, open-source, community-focused unit testing tool for .NET applications. By default .Net also provides a xUnit project template to implement test cases. Unit test cases build upon the 'AAA' formula that means 'Arrange', 'Act' and 'Assert' Arrange - Declaring variables, objects, instantiating mocks, etc. Act - Calling or invoking the method that needs to be tested. Assert - The assert ensures that code behaves as expected means yielding expected output. Create An API And Unit Test Projects: Let's create a .Net6 Web API and xUnit sample applications to accomplish our demo.

Angular 14 Crud Example

In this article, we will implement CRUD operation in the Angular 14 application. Angular: Angular is a framework that can be used to build a single-page application. Angular applications are built with components that make our code simple and clean. Angular components compose of 3 files like TypeScript File(*.ts), Html File(*.html), CSS File(*.cs) Components typescript file and HTML file support 2-way binding which means data flow is bi-directional Component typescript file listens for all HTML events from the HTML file.

A Small Guide On NestJS Queues

NestJS Application Queues helps to deal with application scaling and performance challenges. When To Use Queues?: API request that mostly involves in time taking operations like CPU bound operation, doing them synchronously which will result in thread blocking. So to avoid these issues, it is an appropriate way to make the CPU-bound operation separate background job.  In nestjs one of the best solutions for these kinds of tasks is to implement the Queues. For queueing mechanism in the nestjs application most recommended library is '@nestjs/bull'(Bull is nodejs queue library). The 'Bull' depends on Redis cache for data storage like a job. So in this queueing technique, we will create services like 'Producer' and 'Consumer'. The 'Producer' is used to push our jobs into the Redis stores. The consumer will read those jobs(eg: CPU Bound Operations) and process them. So by using this queues technique user requests processed very fastly because actually
