Rendering views dynamically

I have two views

-One is drawing List Box to select record-"SelectionVer1.cshtml"

-2nd is drawing HTML Table with checkbox to select a record- "SelectionVer2.cshtml"

(Both are using same model and same action method of a controller)

Now I need to dynamically render this based on the logged in User. If user have roll1 then SelectionVer2.cshtml will be rendered by same controller otherwise SelectionVer1.cshtml will be rendered by same controller.

How this can be achieved?

Re: Rendering views dynamically

try use something like this

<html>
.......
@if(Request.User.Identity.IsInRole("Admin"))
{
   @Html.RenderPartial("View1",Model);
}
else
{
  @Html.RenderPartial("View2",Model);
}
.....
</html>

Re: Rendering views dynamically

public ActionResult Index()
{
   if( HttpContext.User.Identity.Name == 'User1')
   {
      return View("View1");
   }

   if( HttpContext.User.Identity.Name == 'User2')
   {
       return View("View2");
   }

   //return a default view
   return View();
}

Re: Rendering views dynamically

The user-view association is stored in database i.e. this is dynamic.

There is possibility of adding new views as view library is another project.

I can not hard code User Name and Views, as the association may be changed, i need approach like Dependency Injection, we are using this for injecting Model, but I am stuck for Views.

Re: Rendering views dynamically

So, my suggestion based on Roles. It means you don't need to hardcode username.

If your Views will change you can code something like version control that will return actual associated Views names.

Re: Rendering views dynamically

Thanks for the concept, we have implemented in below manner.

public ActionResult Index()
{
bm = bd.GetBMCs(5);
//using static class VersionControl to get components for user
return View(VersionControl.GetComponent(HttpContext.User.Identity.Name, ComponentName.RangePlanConfigSelection), null, bm);
}

Its working !
