Поддержка optgroup в dropdownlist.NET MVC?

мое расширение немного сложнее,но оно имеет все перегрузки, как и оригинальный DropDownList.

на самом деле я создал его специально, чтобы иметь возможность создавать DropDownList с группами и преобразовываться в два объединенных выбора с помощью jDoubleSelect

}

Это было добавлено в ASP.Net MVC в версии 5.2 и теперь встроен.

на групповое свойство на SelectListItem позволяет указать группу для каждого элемента:

New конструкторы SelectList также можно указать имя поля, содержащего название группы в предоставленном списке товаров.

методы HtmlHelper DropDownList и DropDownListFor теперь генерируют элементы optgroup на основе групп, включенных в список предметов.

легко!

Я просто пишу расширения для этого, увидеть это:

                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)

                    if (SelectedValue != null && item.Value == SelectedValue)
                        option.Attributes.Add("selected", "selected");
                    option.InnerHtml = helper.Encode(item.Text);

            }
            select.InnerHtml = optgroupHtml.ToString();
            return select.ToString(TagRenderMode.Normal);
        }
}

    public class GroupDropListItem
    {

        public List<OptionItem> Items { get; set; }
    }

    public class OptionItem
    {
        public string Text { get; set; }
        public string Value { get; set; }
    }

Я пробовал решение @Serge Zab, которое работает хорошо, но у меня были проблемы с ненавязчивой проверкой, после некоторой проверки я нашел проблему.

Кажется, что некоторые необходимые атрибуты отсутствуют в элементе select, если вы хотите, чтобы проверка jQuery сработала сразу после создания вашего TagBuilder

TagBuilder tagBuilder = new TagBuilder("select");

добавить эти атрибуты

tagBuilder.MergeAttribute("data-val", "true",true); 
tagBuilder.MergeAttribute("data-val-required", "your validation message", true)

и ненавязчивая проверка должна срабатывать.

В Серж Заб ответ атрибуты данных, таких как data_valuename, не marging в правильной форме data-valuename.

Я заменил код tagBuilder.MergeAttributes(htmlAttributes); на SelectInternal метод это

foreach (var htmlAttribute in htmlAttributes)
{
     tagBuilder.MergeAttribute(
        htmlAttribute.Key.Replace('_', '-'), 
        (string)htmlAttribute.Value
     );
}

просто примечание об использовании расширения Serge для создания более одного списка выбора в одной форме. У меня возникли проблемы с получением второго списка выбора для применения групп, и когда я изучил генерируемый html, я понял, что оба получили один и тот же идентификатор. Чтобы исправить это, перейдите в функцию SelectInternal в расширении serge и прокомментируйте / удалите следующие две строки:

tagBuilder.MergeAttribute ("имя", name, true / * replaceExisting */); tagBuilder.GenerateId(имя);

в качестве альтернативы вы можете просто передать уникальные идентификаторы каждому (хотя DropDownGroupListFor не принимает параметр "string name", поэтому вам придется добавить перегрузку, которая делает)

Мне нужно было решение для обработки множественного выбора с помощью optgroup, и я использовал решение Serge Zab. У меня есть только два комментария об этом (слишком долго для комментария).

• несмотря на его утверждения, его решение не поддерживает все существующие перегрузки DropDownListFor, поскольку оно не поддерживает MultiSelectList или SelectList, часто используемые в моделях. Но это нетрудно добавить.

• его решение не работает для меня для множественного выбора инициализация выбранных / не выбранных элементов из модели: исходные значения не были затронуты. Я только что изменил следующий метод:

  частный статический MvcHtmlString DropDownListHelper(...) { возвращает SelectInternal (htmlHelper, optionLabel, expression, selectList, false /* allowMultiple */, htmlAttributes); }

для этого :

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);
}

и это сработало, как ожидалось. Конечно, атрибут multiple должен быть определен : @формат HTML.DropDownGroupListFor(м => м. Выбранную Модель.Значения, new { multiple = "multiple"})

спасибо Сержу за его ответ.
