Integrating Non-MVC & MVC Projects

Question

User-1580299748 posted

Hello All,

I am writing an <g class="gr_ gr_51 gr-alert gr_gramm gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim Style multiReplace" id="51" data-gr-id="51">ASP .</g>Net Core Razor (Version 2.2) web application that is non-MVC.

I would like to integrate a CMS/Blog (using Markdown) into my application, but do not want to write one from scratch.

I want the Blog to reside in a /blog folder in my project.

My research shows me that there are several GitHub project available that I can integrate.

However, quite a few of them are MVC based.

My project is not MVC.

I do not understand how to integrate an MVC application into my non-MVC project.

Any guidance/resources appreciated.

Thanks in advance for your time!

Add MVC and a route in Configure method.

//app.UseMvc();

app.UseMvc(routes =>
{
    routes.MapRoute(
        name: "default",
        template: "{controller=Home}/{action=Index}/{id?}");
});

If you are asking how to integrate ASP.NET MVC into ASP.NET Core then you need two different projects and perhaps share the auth cookie.

Yes, I'm asking now to integrate an <g class="gr_ gr_40 gr-alert gr_gramm gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim Style multiReplace" id="40" data-gr-id="40">ASP .</g>Net MVC project into my <g class="gr_ gr_62 gr-alert gr_gramm gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim Style multiReplace" id="62" data-gr-id="62">ASP .</g>Net Core Razor (non-MVC) project.

Thanks for the reference.  I will take a look at it.

Hi,

Another option could be to create a child application inside a parent site so that you can move each part separately. For example you have https://marcstan.net/blog/2017/09/16/Asp.Net-core-sub-applications-in-IIS/ for how to fix problems it could cause.

If you prefer to have them in a single VS project I expect this to just work and I doubt you'll find some guidance about that. If unfamiliar with MVC try perhaps tocreate a MVC project and add Razor Pages to see what happens. If you need further help please be more explicit about the first problem you have when trying.
