Javascript Mvc Route Helper

This helper allows you to access to MVC routes in your Javascript files.

It provides a Javascript equivalent of Url.Action.

Usage

1. Add a reference to Sor.JavascriptMvcRouteHelper in your MVC Project.

2. Add a new route in the Global.asax file. The route must be of type Sor.JavascriptMvcRouteHelper.DiscoverableRoute, must be the first route and must not use the action parameter.

routes.Add(new Sor.JavascriptMvcRouteHelper.DiscoverableRoute("discoverableroute/{controller}"));

3. Update your controller class for which you want to access to MVC routes by extending Sor.JavascriptMvcRouteHelper.DiscoverableController.

4. To access to the actions urls of a controller, add a reference to a script using the route declared in the step 2.

<script src="/discoverableroute/{controller-name}"></script>

Replace {controller-name} with the name of your controller.

5. To access to the routes, use the variable $mvc.

$mvc.Account.LogOn

For example, use this instruction to access to the URL of the LogOn action of the Account controller.
