Pass a model to an MVCMailer view - asp.net

Question

I have a controller, which passes a model (ovw.ToList()) to a view:
//
// GET: /Clinic/Overview/
public ActionResult Overview()
{
IEnumerable<Clinic> ovw = from c in db.Clinics
select c;
return View(ovw.ToList());
}
View:
#model IEnumerable<ttp.Models.Clinic>
#foreach (var item in Model)
{
<div>#item.ClinicName</div>
#foreach (var item2 in item.Properties)
{
<div>#item2.Address</div>
This works absolutely fine on screen.
When using MVCMailer, however , if I want to display the same layout in the email, how do I pass the ovw.ToList() to the mailer view, so that I can reference the same model in this way:
(I'm stuck on what to put in as the first line in the view):
#model IEnumerable<ttp.Models.Clinic>
#foreach (var item in Model)
Thanks for any help,
Mark

Answer 1

You should find your answer in the 'Pass Data to Mailer Views' part of this guide: https://github.com/smsohan/MvcMailer/wiki/MvcMailer-Step-by-Step-Guide
To pass your model along with the view to MVCMailer, you need to use ViewData:
var comment = new Comment {From = me, To = you, Message = "Great Work!"};
ViewData = new ViewDataDictionary(comment);

In my project i doing like this it's below
i am showing all my category list in my index view
in my model class
public List<CategoryDetails> CategoryData { get; set; }
and i am also create CategoryDetails class and create a property to all my field
like this
public int CatID { get; set; }
[Required(ErrorMessage = "Enter Category Name")]
public string CatName { get; set; }
public string CatImage { get; set; }
and create a function in my main model class like this
public void LoadCategory()
{
CategoryData = (from con in dbData.Categorys
select new CategoryDetails()
{
CatID = con.CatID,
CatName = con.CatName,
CatImage = con.CatImage,
}).ToList();
}
In my controller i create a action like this
create my model class object and pass my model function to action
public ActionResult Index()
{
CategoryModel categorymodel = new CategoryModel();
categorymodel.LoadCategory();
return View(categorymodel);
}
and in my view
#model PMS.Models.CategoryModel
#{
ViewBag.Title = "Index";
Layout = "~/Views/Shared/_Layout.cshtml";
}
<h2>
Index</h2>
<p>
#Html.ActionLink("Create New", "Create")
</p>
<table>
<tr>
<th>
Category Name
</th>
<th>
</th>
</tr>
#foreach (var item in Model.CategoryData)
{
<tr>
<td>
#Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.CatName)
</td>
</tr>
}
</table>
i think this will help you
