pass url into the razor view

[marvel420]

Hi -

I am trying to use this tool to generate body of an email which is a razor view. The view expects a url to be passed in which looks like: http://localhost:1982/#/login/
I store that url in my model.

in my razor view, I reference it in this manner:
<a href="@Model.LoginURL"><u>Home Page</u></a>

for some reason the RunCompile funtion dies stating the following error.
- error: (31, 13) The name 'BeginWriteAttribute' does not exist in the current context
- error: (4, 1) The name 'WriteAttributeValue' does not exist in the current context
- error: (37, 13) The name 'EndWriteAttribute' does not exist in the current context

The RunCompile function works fine if I hard code the same url inside the razor view but that is not the requirement.
<a href="http://localhost:1982/#/login/"><u>Home Page</u></a>

Any insight in this is much appreciated.

Thanks

I am having this very same issue. I saw on stackoverflow to add a basetemplatetype to config, which i have done to no avail

Same problem here, I'm stuck trying to reference a model property inside an img src attribute. Any suggestion from the developer would be appreciated!

On a quick glance a the code, it seems that the razor compiler generates a source code for the template containing a call to the method 'BeginWriteAttribute'. Since the class containing the template inherits from TemplateBase, that class should implement it, but there is no declaration of the 'BeginWriteAttribute' method in it. I am puzzled... Seems like there a mismatch between the source code generated by the razor template compiler and the actual compiler version supported by the razorengine implementation.

Some code samples would be quite helpful.

At the moment, the only workaround I've found is to create a string with the HTML tag containing the attribute, and then place the attribute in the template using @Raw(xx). As an example:

@{ 
    var pictureTag = "<img src=\"" + Model.PictureUri + "\" />";
}

<div> Here is the image: @Raw(pictureTag)</div>

@aviatrix do you mean sample code showing the problem? I think I can setup a sample project and put it on github if it can help. I can also try to help solving it, but I am not sure I have fully understood the problem. 'BeginWriteAttribute' is a valid method of the class RazorPage, but I don't know who in the RazorEngine environment should provide it. Should it be the TemplateBase class?

@bragma yes, that was what i meant. please ping me when you get a sample that demonstrates the project

Does this work with https://www.nuget.org/packages/RazorEngine/4.4.1-rc1?
