RazorEngineCore.Extensions

Extensions for RazorEngineCore (ASP.NET Core 3.1.1 Razor Template Engine)

HTML (safe) encoded output by default using RazorEngineCorePageModel or RazorEngineCorePageModel<T>.

RazorEngineCore.Precompiler

Template pre-compiler for RazorEngineCore.

Compile your RazorEngineCore Templates when building your solution/project, thus compiling them during runtime.

---

Precompiler usage

// Setup the template for the precompiler
[assembly: PrecompiledTemplate("sample", typeof(RazorEngineCorePageModel), "@Model.Name")]

// Using the precompiled template
var resourceTemplate = await PrecompiledTemplate.LoadAsync("sample");
await resourceTemplate.RunAsync(model: someModel);

• The precompiler tool will run after a build.
• Scanning the output assemblies for PrecompiledTemplateAttribute.
• Build the templates and store them in a resource file named RazorEngineCore.templates.

---

Support for (some) @Html tags with custom RazorEngineCoreHtmlWriter (to reduce external dependencies)

use: @("<div>string</div>")
out: &lt;div&gt;string&lt;/div&gt;

use: @Html.Encode("<div>string</div>")
out: &amp;lt;div&amp;gt;string&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;

use: @Html.AttributeEncode("<div>string</div>")
out: &amp;lt;div&gt;string&amp;lt;/div&gt;

use: @Html.Raw("<div>string</div>")
out: <div>string</div>

Using the default RazorEngineTemplateBase with @Html will result in an exception The name 'Html' does not exist in the current context.
