At first glance, I think you want the .AddChild(...)
extension (take a look at http://www.fluentbootstrap.com/GettingStarted near the bottom under "Children"). For example:
public static ComponentBuilder<MvcBootstrapConfig<TModel>, Element> TaskDialogBody<TComponent, TModel>(
this BootstrapHelper<MvcBootstrapConfig<TModel>, TComponent> helper, string title)
where TComponent : Component, ICanCreate<Tag>
{
return helper.Div().AddCss("dialog-header").AddChild(helper.Heading2(title));
}
Let me know if that doesn't work for you and I'll dig a little deeper. BTW, impressed you're diving into writing your own extensions! That was always a design goal, but the crazy amount of generics I had to use to make the calling API easier acts as a pretty big barrier. I keep meaning to write some good documentation about it, but you know how that goes...
Thanks. If I gain some traction with this, I'll try to offer up some docs. I was within a hair's breadth of writing my own fluent bootstrap helper and, lo and behold, your library came up in a Google search and it works great. I'd love to "give back" somehow.
Awesome, looking forward to learning how you progress in your efforts. Even if you don't have time to write docs, etc. the fact that others are getting use of the library is satisfying in and of itself. I'll leave this issue open for a while in case you have any additional problems or questions.
I'm trying to write some custom extension methods and have been successful with ones like this:
But I can't get my head around how to create nested elements without that ToString() call. For example, I need an extension method a div within a div and allow the caller to provide the content to be inserted in the inner div. How do I achieve this without converting the interior div to a string first? Any examples someone can point me to?
