Tips for creating Open Content Razor Templates
Open Content Razor Templates
The advantage of using Razor templates is that you can create any logic as you are using C# you want and use pretty much any data available in Open Content or DNN.
Intellisens in Visual Studio (Code)
Add this include at the top of you Razor tempalte for Intellisense support:
@inherits Satrabel.OpenContent.Components.OpenContentWebPage
This is also included in the RazorStarter Template
Example template ( the RazorStarter Template)
@inherits Satrabel.OpenContent.Components.OpenContentWebPage
<div class="row">
@foreach(var col in Model.Columns)
{
<div class="[email protected](12 / Model.Settings.Columns) [email protected](24 / Model.Settings.Columns)">
<div class="thumbnail">
@if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(col.Image))
{
<img src="@col.Image" alt="@col.Title}}">
}
@if (col.Caption)
{
<div class="caption">
@if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(col.Title))
{
<h3>@col.Title</h3>
}
@col.Description
</div>
}
</div>
</div>
}
</div>
Other Uses of Razor
With the right includes a Razor template can also render data from outside Open Content.
And you can use the DNN Razor helpers (@Dnn.) as they are included by default.
Or you can also use the DNN API directly to combine Open Content data with DNN data.
More info on DNN Razor
@using System
@inherits Satrabel.OpenContent.Components.OpenContentWebPage
<h1>@Dnn.Portal.PortalName</h1>
<p>@Dnn.Portal.Description</p>
<h2>@Dnn.Tab.TabName</h2>
<h3>@Dnn.Tab.Title</h3>
<p>@Dnn.Tab.Description</p>
Loading Scripts and Stylesheets
You can load extra JS and CSS dependencies by injecting the following code at the top of the razor file.
@using System
@inherits Satrabel.OpenContent.Components.OpenContentWebPage
@{
RegisterScript("js/my-script.js");
RegisterStyleSheet("css/my-stylsheet.css");
}
etc..
Print the Razor Model
You can print the Razor module by inserting the following code in your template.
@ObjectInfo.Print(Model)
@ObjectInfo.Print(Dnn)
