Suporte ao OptGroup no SOPDDOWNLIST .NET MVC?
-
03-07-2019 - |
Pergunta
Continuando com esta pergunta Programando criando uma lista suspensa Eu gostaria que minha lista tivesse vários optgroup
listas também. Isso é atualmente possível?
Sei que preciso passar uma lista de selectList para uma lista suspensa, mas não sei como adicionar texto, valor, optGroup ao selectlist.
Eu quero o resultado final para produzir:
<option value="">Please select</option>
<optgroup label="Option A">
<option value="1">1</option>
<option value="2">2</option>
<option value="3">3</option>
<option value="4">4</option>
</optgroup>
<optgroup label="Option B">
<option value="a">A</option>
<option value="b">B</option>
<option value="c">C</option>
</optgroup>
</option>
Solução
Olhando através do código em www.codeplex.com/aspnet, não parece que nem o método de extensão de lista suspensa nem a lista suspensa suportem o uso do optGroup em uma seleção. Parece que você precisará escrever seu próprio método de extensão e estender o SelectListItem para conter o agrupamento ou gerar a seleção manualmente na marcação.
Outras dicas
Minha extensão é um pouco mais complicada, mas tem todas as sobrecargas como a lista suspensa original.
Na verdade, eu o criei especialmente para poder produzir Lista suspensa com grupos e ser transformada em duas seleções unidas com a ajuda de JdoubleSelect

Isso foi adicionado ao ASP.NET MVC na versão 5.2 e agora está embutido.
o Propriedade do grupo no selectListItem Permite especificar um grupo para cada item:
Novo Construtores selectList Também permita que você forneça o nome do campo que contém o título do grupo na lista de itens fornecidos.
Os métodos htmlhelper suspensos e os métodos suspensos agora geram elementos optgroup com base nos grupos incluídos na lista de itens.
Fácil!
Eu apenas escrevo uma extensão para fazer isso, veja:
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Web.Routing;
namespace System.Web.Mvc.Html
{
public static class GroupDropListExtensions
{
public static string GroupDropList(this HtmlHelper helper, string name, IEnumerable<GroupDropListItem> data, string SelectedValue, object htmlAttributes)
{
if (data == null && helper.ViewData != null)
data = helper.ViewData.Eval(name) as IEnumerable<GroupDropListItem>;
if (data == null) return string.Empty;
var select = new TagBuilder("select");
if (htmlAttributes != null)
select.MergeAttributes(new RouteValueDictionary(htmlAttributes));
select.GenerateId(name);
var optgroupHtml = new StringBuilder();
var groups = data.ToList();
foreach (var group in data)
{
var groupTag = new TagBuilder("optgroup");
groupTag.Attributes.Add("label", helper.Encode( group.Name));
var optHtml = new StringBuilder();
foreach (var item in group.Items)
{
var option = new TagBuilder("option");
option.Attributes.Add("value", helper.Encode(item.Value));
if (SelectedValue != null && item.Value == SelectedValue)
option.Attributes.Add("selected", "selected");
option.InnerHtml = helper.Encode(item.Text);
optHtml.AppendLine(option.ToString(TagRenderMode.Normal));
}
groupTag.InnerHtml = optHtml.ToString();
optgroupHtml.AppendLine(groupTag.ToString(TagRenderMode.Normal));
}
select.InnerHtml = optgroupHtml.ToString();
return select.ToString(TagRenderMode.Normal);
}
}
public class GroupDropListItem
{
public string Name { get; set; }
public List<OptionItem> Items { get; set; }
}
public class OptionItem
{
public string Text { get; set; }
public string Value { get; set; }
}
}
Anotações de dados para validações de clientes ausentes?
Em resposta à pergunta de Chrno Love acima, adicionando à solução de Serge Zab - a correção da Milimétrica para os atributos de validação do MVC3 ao lado ao usar uma coleção de suspensos na mesma visão:
public static MvcHtmlString DropDownGroupListFor<TModel, TProperty>(this HtmlHelper<TModel> htmlHelper,
Expression<Func<TModel, TProperty>>
expression,
IEnumerable<GroupedSelectListItem>
selectList, string optionLabel,
IDictionary<string, object> htmlAttributes)
{
if (expression == null)
{
throw new ArgumentNullException("expression");
}
// fixing clientside validation attributes
// http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4799958/asp-net-mvc-3-unobtrusive-client-validation-does-not-work-with-drop-down-lists/8102022#8102022
var metadata = ModelMetadata.FromLambdaExpression(expression, htmlHelper.ViewData);
var mergedAttributes =
htmlHelper.GetUnobtrusiveValidationAttributes(ExpressionHelper.GetExpressionText(expression), metadata);
if (htmlAttributes != null)
{
foreach (PropertyDescriptor descriptor in TypeDescriptor.GetProperties(htmlAttributes))
{
object value = descriptor.GetValue(htmlAttributes);
mergedAttributes.Add(descriptor.Name, value);
}
}
//return DropDownListHelper(htmlHelper, ExpressionHelper.GetExpressionText(expression), selectList, optionLabel, htmlAttributes);
return DropDownListHelper(htmlHelper, ExpressionHelper.GetExpressionText(expression), selectList, optionLabel, mergedAttributes);
}
Serge Zab's answer was exactly what I was looking for. Being a die hard VB programmer I ported it to this VB module:

I have been trying @Serge Zab solution out which works well but was having some trouble with the unobtrusive validation, after some inspection I found the problem.
There seems to be some required attributes missing off the select element if you want the Jquery validation to fire, just after you create your TagBuilder
TagBuilder tagBuilder = new TagBuilder("select");
Add these attributes
tagBuilder.MergeAttribute("data-val", "true",true);
tagBuilder.MergeAttribute("data-val-required", "your validation message", true)
and the unobtrusive validation should fire.
In Serge Zab answer, data attributes, like data_valuename
, dont marging in correct form data-valuename
.
I replaced code tagBuilder.MergeAttributes(htmlAttributes);
in SelectInternal
method to this
foreach (var htmlAttribute in htmlAttributes)
{
tagBuilder.MergeAttribute(
htmlAttribute.Key.Replace('_', '-'),
(string)htmlAttribute.Value
);
}
Just a note on using Serge's extension to create more than one select list on the same form. I was having problems getting the second select list to apply the groups, and when I examined the html being generated I realized both had been given the same id. To fix this, go into the SelectInternal function in serge's extension and comment out/delete the following two lines:
tagBuilder.MergeAttribute("name", name, true /* replaceExisting */); tagBuilder.GenerateId(name);
Alternatively you can just pass unique id's to each (though the DropDownGroupListFor doesn't take the 'string name' parameter so you'll have to add an overload that does)
I needed a solution to handle a multiple selection with optgroup, and I used Serge Zab solution. I've just two comments about it (too long for a comment).
Despite his claims, his solution does not support all existing overloads of DropDownListFor, since it doesn't support MultiSelectList or SelectList, oftenly used in models. But that's not hard to add these.
His solution was not working for me for Multiple selection to initialize selected/not selected items from model : the initial values were not affected. I've just modified the following method :
private static MvcHtmlString DropDownListHelper(...) { return SelectInternal(htmlHelper, optionLabel, expression, selectList, false /* allowMultiple */, htmlAttributes); }
To this :
private static MvcHtmlString DropDownListHelper(HtmlHelper htmlHelper, string expression, IEnumerable<GroupedSelectListItem> selectList, string optionLabel, IDictionary<string, object> htmlAttributes)
{
bool allowMultiple = htmlAttributes.ContainsKey("multiple");
return SelectInternal(htmlHelper, optionLabel, expression, selectList, allowMultiple, htmlAttributes);
}
And it worked as expected. Of course the multiple attribute must be defined : @Html.DropDownGroupListFor(m => m.Selected, Model.Values, new { multiple = "multiple" })
Thanks to Serge for his answer.
