RouteLink
in namespace DotVVM.Framework.Controls
Hyperlink which builds the URL from route name and parameter values.
Usage & Scenarios
Hyperlink which builds the URL from route name and parameter values.
The control has dynamic parameters. If you want to supply a value of the route parameter called "Id", use the Param-Id
dynamic property.
The route configuration is in the DotvvmStartup.cs
file.
The RouteLink can detect whether the page runs inside the SPA container and generate the correct URL.
Sample 1: Simple Route Links
The RouteName
property is the name of the route in the route table. Routes are registered in the DotvvmStartup.cs
file.
You can use property the Text
property to set the text of the link.
The Param-Id="test"
specifies that the {Id} parameter in the route will get the value test.
<dot:ContentPlaceHolder ID="Main" />
<menu>
<li>
<dot:RouteLink RouteName="SampleA" Text="Sample A"/>
</li>
<li>
<dot:RouteLink RouteName="SampleB" Text="Sample B" Param-Id="test"/>
</li>
</menu>
@masterPage master.dotmaster
<dot:Content ContentPlaceHolderID="Main">
Content from page SampleA.
</dot:Content>
@masterPage master.dotmaster
<dot:Content ContentPlaceHolderID="Main">
Content from page SampleB.
</dot:Content>

namespace DotvvmWeb.Views.Docs.Controls.builtin.RouteLink.sample1
{
public class Startup : IDotvvmStartup
{
public void Configure(DotvvmConfiguration config, string applicationPath)
{
config.RouteTable.Add("SampleA", "SampleA", "SampleA.dothtml", null);
config.RouteTable.Add("SampleB", "SampleB/{Id}", "SampleB.dothtml", null);
}
}
}
Sample 2: Set the target Attribute
You can use the target
attribute to specify the way to open the link generated by the Route Link control.
It works the same way as it does with the html <a>
tag.
The target="_blank"
causes the browser to open the link in a new tab.
<dot:ContentPlaceHolder ID="Main" />
<menu>
<li>
<dot:RouteLink target="_blank" RouteName="SampleA" Text="Sample A"/>
</li>
</menu>
@masterPage master.dotmaster
<dot:Content ContentPlaceHolderID="Main">
Content from page SampleA.
