Content at-a-glance

extend the framework to write code faster

• date manipulations, DataAnnotations
• string manipulations (trim with suffix, AsNullIfEmpty(), AddHtmlLineBreaks(), TrimTextToWord(), HtmlParagraphizify(), RemoveDiacritics(), MakeUrlFriendly())
• NameValueCollection.ToDictionary()
• ObservableCollection: AddRange(IEnumerable<T>), RemoveAll(Func<T, bool>)
• StopwatchExtensions: fluent methods to avoid writing many lines of code when using it
• email address decomposition (account, tags, local part, domain part) and validation
• no fancy stuff like StringExtension.IsEmpty())

And more...

Request-Result-ErrorCode pattern

SrkToolkit.Domain contains a few classes to represent API or domain operations.

Use the rrr code snippet to obtain a set of types for an operation.

extensions for ASP MVC

• date and time display helpers (based on timezone, standard formats, tag...)
• PageInfo is the one object to set your page title, description, meta tags, opengraph values...
• fixed AuthorizeAttribute to return a "HTTP 403 Forbidden" instead of 401 auth page when already authenticated
• 1-line error handling code for customized http-accept-aware error pages
• wrapper for tempmessages to show nice informations, warnings and errors (extension methods for both controllers and view)
• DecimalModelBinder with "friendly" decimal separator detection (useful for stupid cultures like French)
• OpenGraph extensions to easily ouput tags in your page
• BaseSessionService class that allows auto-populating new and expired sessions in a lazy way
• ResultService class that allows oupting error pages from actions
• Html.DescriptionFor() to show the Description property from the [DisplayAttribute(Name = "", Description = "<desc here>")]
• Html.Submit() 'cauz it's missing
• UrlHelper.SetQueryString(string url, params string[] keysAndValues) to add/change query strings from a raw url
• JsonNetResult: ActionResult class that allows you to specify your favorite JSON serializer
• HttpRequest: .IsXmlHttpRequest(), .IsUrlLocalToHost(url), IsPost()...

And more...

Signed code

All assemblies are signed. The real key is not in source control; I keep it to ensure my builds are only made by myself (yes, I know that is not 100% true).

The latest build can be found here: https://www.nuget.org/packages?q=Tags%3A%22srktoolkit%22

Want unsigned assemblies? Get the code, remove the option and build.
