  MetaData to Json

  Mar 28, 2012 04:47 PM|LINK

  Hello,

  I'm trying to create a SPA using ASP.net MVC, datacontroller (not dbdatacontroller) and knockout. I do not wan't to use upshot before this becomes production.

  I would very muc like to get all available metadata through a normal controller, so I can output this as Json, but I'm having a problem figuring out how. Here's an example:

  public class Project
      {
          [Required(ErrorMessageResourceType=typeof(Localization.Projects.Project), ErrorMessageResourceName="Name_Required")]
          [StringLength(50, ErrorMessageResourceType=typeof(Localization.Projects.Project), ErrorMessageResourceName="Name_StringLength")]
          [Display("Name")]
          public string Name { get; set; }
      }

  I should be able to call an uri, like: /getmetadata?project, which should return a json-string, like:

  { 
    Project: {
      Name : {
        Display: "Name",
        Validations: {
           StringLength: {50, "Message"},
           Required: {"Message"}
        }
     }
  }
  

  Is this possible in any way?

  Best,

  Morten
